Let me give you another little hint, it doesn't matter who you vote for, both R's and D's have been selling this country out for quite some time now. Maybe pay attention?

Nice job on preaching to the choir. :lol:

Now try to convince these morons who vote for the “lesser of the two evils”

So again, it’s the fault of the citizens.

Economic Growth Has Reached 3 Percent for the First Time in More than a Decade Thanks to President Donald J. Trump’s Policies

Issued on: February 28, 2019



QUOTE

We’ve accomplished an economic turnaround of historic proportions.

President Donald J. Trump

ACHIEVING 3 PERCENT GROWTH: For the first time in 13 years, the economy reached 3 percent growth in 2018.

  • The Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA) has announced that GDP grew by 3.1 percent from the fourth quarter of 2017 to the fourth quarter of 2018.
    • Bureau of Economic Analysis:  “During 2018 (measured from the fourth quarter of 2017 to the fourth quarter of 2018), real GDP increased 3.1 percent.”
  • This marked the fastest fourth quarter to fourth quarter growth since 2005.
  • 2018 was the second year in a row that the economy exceeded market expectations.
  • The impressive economic growth in 2018 was a strong improvement from the trend prior to when President Donald J. Trump took office.
    • Had the pre-2017 trend continued, growth would have been only 2 percent in 2017 and 2018.  Economic output was also $280 billion larger than it would have been.
  • Growth matched the forecast of 3.1 percent predicted in the President’s 2018 Budget.
  • The fourth quarter GDP growth last year far exceeded market expectations.

THE ECONOMIC BOOM CONTINUES: Last year’s impressive GDP growth continues the incredible economic success the country is experiencing under President Trump. 

  • President Trump’s policies of tax cuts, deregulation, and trade reform have generated a booming economy.
  • So far, more than 5.3 million jobs have been created since President Trump’s election.
  • The unemployment rate has remained at or below 4 percent for the past 11 months.
    • September 2018 and November 2018 saw unemployment rates of 3.7 percent – the lowest rate in nearly 50 years.
  • The number of job openings for American workers reached a record high 7.3 million in December of last year.
  • The economy continues to exceed expectations across the board.
    • Job growth in January was more than 300,000 – far exceeding expectations.
    • Unemployment stands at 4 percent – the Congressional Budget Office predicted in January 2017 that it would be 4.4 percent this quarter.

DEFYING DOUBTS: President Trump’s policies have achieved economic growth that critics continually denied would happen.

  • Critics (especially from the previous administration) repeatedly denied that the President’s policies would lead to this kind of economic growth.
  • Larry Summers, President Obama’s National Economic Council Director, dismissed the prediction that President Trump’s policies would lead to 3 percent growth.
    • Summers wrote in 2017: “Apparently, the budget forecasts that U.S. economic growth will rise to 3.0 percent because of the administration’s policies — largely its tax cuts and perhaps also its regulatory policies. Fair enough if you believe in tooth fairies and ludicrous supply-side economics.”
  • This criticism is especially outrageous considering the previous administration never reached growth this high during the four quarters of any calendar year.
 

Not 3% for a year, 2.9 same as 2015 just with record debt and higher deficit,  still only a 2.1 in the 4th quarter prior to covid, and a manufacturing recession,  not to mention highest trade deficit with China in 12 years.

FACTS:timeline

 

After  Trump in January declared a “humanitarian and security crisis" during a  primetime Oval Office address, Sen. Chuck Schumer, speaking beside  House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, said Trump was working to “manufacture a  crisis, stoke fear and divert attention from the turmoil in his  administration." Party leader Tom Perez also called it “manufactured.”  Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., described it as a "'crisis' that  doesn't exist."

 

Sen. Elizabeth Warren tweeted at the time that "we're not falling" for the "fake crisis."

 

Jan  14 - the WHO (World Health Organization) sent out a tweet declaring  that there is no evidence of human-to-human transmission of the COVID-19  virus.

 

Jan 24 - Dr. Anthony Fauci  National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) Director  said - “ Covid 19 It isn't something the American public needs to worry  about or be frightened about, because we have ways of preparing and  screening of. It's a very, very low risk to the United States, but it's  something that we as public health officials need to take very  seriously,"

 

On January 29, 2020 Joe Biden in a speech in Iowa said that Trump's idea of restricting travel from China was "Xenophobic".

 

, WHO calls corona virus a healthcare emergency.

 

February  2 - New York City Health Commissioner Dr. Oxiris Barbot, “The risk to  New Yorkers for Coronavirus is low and our preparedness as a city is  very high. There is no rJanuary 30eason not to take the subway, not to take the  bus, not to go out to your favorite restaurant, and certainly not to  miss the parade next Sunday. I’m going to be there.”

 

February  24, 2020 Nancy Pelosi says from San Francisco's China Town to come  visit, it is safe and "there are no Coronavirus concerns". Then SF  became one of the epicenters of the disease.

 

Bill DiBlasio 03/2/20 “ I’m encouraging New Yorkers to go on with your lives. Get out on the town despite Coronavirus.”

 

On  March 9, 2020 Bernie Sanders said he would NOT, I repeat he said he  would NOT shut down travel from March 20, MSNBC's Rachel Maddow (as well  as NY Times) bash Trump for talking about Hydroxy Cloroquin calling it a  "fairy tale" and giving people false hope. Now it is being sought after  to fight the disease and is being tested as helping patients recover  faster.

 

January 24 2020, Joe  Scarborough and wife Minka had a segment where they said "no Americans  need to be concerned about COVID-19 and should be more concerned about  the common flu.

 

March 30, 2020 Morning Joe anchors say "everyone saw this coming in early January.Summary of Corona Events

 

OWNED!!

No you smarmy little cunt you posted about the first president to not have a 3% GDP for a year, Trump never had a better Yearly GDP than 2.9 just like 2015, difference is record debt and raising the deficit to do it.

Covid itself changed the outcome of the election. Trump happened to be at the wheel when it happened so he gets the blame regardless of how this whole thing plays out. A win by Hillary would have resulted in one term for her as well.

Freedomsledder would have had 4 full years of the toolkit guy bullshit, I guess Trump was good for something.

You're moving the goalposts. That's all besides the point that these politicians are in DC because people voted for them. 

So if you're looking for someone to blame, blame the people responsible.

That person shows up every election cycle and quickly gets flushed from the party apparatus.  Until you have another Ross Perot on steroids (financially), there will never be a chance of this happening.

Covid certainly played a part and the Dems/MSM used it to their advantage to oust Trump. If Hillary was the President instead she'd still be receiving praise upon praise and would have easily won a second term even though she and the Dems would have likely handled this pandemic worse than Trump did.

MSM and the Dems would be telling all the sheep, look at the other countries with higher cases, high death rates, etc, and be telling everyone what a wonderful job Hillary and the Dems did, guaranteed.
