    There's arguments to made against most of your points midnight. I'm not going to waste time on them. How about the successes of this administration? Obvious, even for the haters, the country is infinitely better off under Trump than 0. Make a case against that please.

    No question about it. The country is doing extremely better under President Trump than under President Hope.

    However,,,without reforms... runaway deficits will all but guarantee a debt crisis that will deeply damage the country...

    Killer,

    Oh I can make an easy case for this...not at all difficult. I do not think this country is better since Trump, not in any way at all.

    In your reply to me above you state all these arbitrary "accomplishments" and label that things are better, well you and most of the boys here are completely missing the reality of the current state of the economy and this country.

    Trump is an abusive, lousy leader. His approach and lack of concern for others has divided this country more than any time I can recall in the past, he is not an example of anything but selfish, abusive capitalism at its worst. That is not my point but I am stating this with regards to his leadership and care for the good of others and this country. He is a phony, a lousy disgusting person who is an embarrassment but you know what? Many like you do not give a crap about how you treat others, as long as you GET YOURS who the hell cares? That is how Trump leads and unfortunately others are selfish losers like him and feel vindicated with abusing others because this schmuck does it and is president.

    Back to the real reply though...the economy is not better, things for the average person are not better. It is like giving a drug fix to a junkie and the junkie can go about their day for a few hours feeling normal and thinking its all good and the consequences of the "fix" are not in sight so all is good. EVERY SINGLE benefit and accomplishment in this economy has come off the back of added debt and future pain. The employment gains are not adding wealth or savings to the average worker, people are saving less and the chasm between the upper and lower class has never been higher. The UE rate is a scam it has always been a scam...the size of the workforce is inaccurate, there is a massive shadow unemployed pool that isnt counted. If you are on UE for a certain length of time you fall off the rolls and are not counted. This UE number is scam its fake its a joke. 

    The only measure in the UE that matters is average hourly earnings..nothing else matters at all, the rest is manipulated in the same fashion China guides their GDP, everyone knows our UE number is as fake as Trump is, but it isnt all his fault its been fake for a long time. The real UE number including able workers in the shadows is likely 10%, maybe higher. Trump gets no credit for this phony number because the number dropped due to the tax gifts he gave to the upper class and corporations.

    Let me ask you something, if I win the lotto and I get 500 million after taxes and I decide I want to put this money to work by giving small business owners a grant from my charitable fund...but I want to determine what the return to GDP would be for this "investment"....what do you consider a reasonable return for 500 million or 500 billion or 2 trillion dollars in debt with relation to GDP? It better be freaking good because we are going to be paying on that for the next THIRTY YEARS and including interest expense these gifts that the dope gives will end up costing 10 TRILLION when all is said and done (run a interest schedule for a 30 yr with different interest rate levels to get this number). So we ate the steak now, we are not paying for the steak, what benefit SHOULD we see for this decision? Is a .5% bump in GDP in the short term commensurate with the cost of that bump? Is it a good use of funds to issue debt paid by the taxpayer to the elite and corps so they can speculate in the market and buy back their stock and enrich themselves with bonuses? Is this a good use of funds?

    Oh I can make an easy case for this...not at all difficult. I do not think this country is better since Trump, not in any way at all.

    In your reply to me above you state all these arbitrary "accomplishments" and label that things are better, well you and most of the boys here are completely missing the reality of the current state of the economy and this country.

    Trump is an abusive, lousy leader. His approach and lack of concern for others has divided this country more than any time I can recall in the past, he is not an example of anything but selfish, abusive capitalism at its worst. That is not my point but I am stating this with regards to his leadership and care for the good of others and this country. He is a phony, a lousy disgusting person who is an embarrassment but you know what? Many like you do not give a crap about how you treat others, as long as you GET YOURS who the hell cares? That is how Trump leads and unfortunately others are selfish losers like him and feel vindicated with abusing others because this schmuck does it and is president.

    Back to the real reply though...the economy is not better, things for the average person are not better. It is like giving a drug fix to a junkie and the junkie can go about their day for a few hours feeling normal and thinking its all good and the consequences of the "fix" are not in sight so all is good. EVERY SINGLE benefit and accomplishment in this economy has come off the back of added debt and future pain. The employment gains are not adding wealth or savings to the average worker, people are saving less and the chasm between the upper and lower class has never been higher. The UE rate is a scam it has always been a scam...the size of the workforce is inaccurate, there is a massive shadow unemployed pool that isnt counted. If you are on UE for a certain length of time you fall off the rolls and are not counted. This UE number is scam its fake its a joke. 

    The only measure in the UE that matters is average hourly earnings..nothing else matters at all, the rest is manipulated in the same fashion China guides their GDP, everyone knows our UE number is as fake as Trump is, but it isnt all his fault its been fake for a long time. The real UE number including able workers in the shadows is likely 10%, maybe higher. Trump gets no credit for this phony number because the number dropped due to the tax gifts he gave to the upper class and corporations.

    Let me ask you something, if I win the lotto and I get 500 million after taxes and I decide I want to put this money to work by giving small business owners a grant from my charitable fund...but I want to determine what the return to GDP would be for this "investment"....what do you consider a reasonable return for 500 million or 500 billion or 2 trillion dollars in debt with relation to GDP? It better be freaking good because we are going to be paying on that for the next THIRTY YEARS and including interest expense these gifts that the dope gives will end up costing 10 TRILLION when all is said and done (run a interest schedule for a 30 yr with different interest rate levels to get this number). So we ate the steak now, we are not paying for the steak, what benefit SHOULD we see for this decision? Is a .5% bump in GDP in the short term commensurate with the cost of that bump? Is it a good use of funds to issue debt paid by the taxpayer to the elite and corps so they can speculate in the market and buy back their stock and enrich themselves with bonuses? Is this a good use of funds?

    part 2 (end)-

    Trump has not done a damn bit of good for the economy...rolling back owed taxes, giving freebies to the elite, removing environmental safeguards for corporate benefit is not helping the economy. Trump has helped the elite, and that cost will be borne by the lower and middle class with benefit reduction, higher taxes and a slumping economy. I dont get how you guys can be so clueless and ignore what is right in front of your faces.

    https://money.cnn.com/2016/11/04/news/economy/jobs-under-obama/index.html

    Corporations did much better than workers during Obama’s time. Their profits hit several new yearly highs during his tenure.  Profits had surged under George W. Bush as well, but when Obama took office they had plunged from their previous peak in 2006, due to the financial crisis and ensuing economic downturn. Then they recovered quickly under Obama — far more quickly than jobs or personal incomes — and reached a new record in 2010, his second year in office.

    From there they climbed even higher, setting more new annual records in 2012, 2013 and 2014, when they reached $1.74 trillion.

    Profits slipped a bit in 2015, but in Obama’s final year profits were still $1.69 trillion — not far below the 2014 record and 57.3 percent higher than in 2008, the year before he took office.

    That gain was higher than during all but three other post-war administrations, behind the 122.7 percent gain under George W. Bush, the 124.5 percent gain during the Nixon-Ford years and the 87.5 percent gain during the Kennedy-Johnson years. It was only slightly higher than the 57.0 percent gain during Truman’s final, four-year term.

    bettingforfun,

    Do you know why corporate profits rebounded? Its not because of fiscal policy it is due to the same thing Trump is whining about right now.

    The FED keeping rates at zero was a direct shot of heroin for corporate profits...now if you want to show me how Obama gave tax gimmies and allowed corps to bring offshore profits back tax free etc etc please feel free to do that and we can compare apples to apples.

    Keep your eyes on the bouncing ball, it makes some of you guys look a bit foolish when you blanket compare Obama like this. I am not saying that ANY politician is better than another because most of them are useless since they are owned by corps so they are biased and useless but your analysis is severely lacking.

    Wall

    Are you serious?????

    You can slice it and dice it any way you want but the bottom line is the rich got richer under Obama and Now Trump.  Are you going to tell me the bailouts and 0% interest money we’re to help the middle class? The AIG bonuses and other corps that did the same thing was helping the middle class?  The rising stock market helped out by cheap money was to help the middle class when less than 50% of the population is even in the market?  How about my $1200 a month Obamacare, is that a help to me, middle class?  What about all the banks that were stealing homes through foreclosure?  Those were middle class people.
    The list goes on and on for gods sakes.

    Prove to me that the rich didn’t become more wealthy under Obama.  Cheap money made it impossible for them not to be able to take advantage and they did.  BIG TIME!

    Actually every mod here is top notch, I am not saying that for any other reason that all mods do this because we enjoy the site and have been members a very long time. 

    I cant stand ignorance and slighted intelligence, it bugs me (obviously) to the point I cant help but say something. People who read something or see something that fits their biases then come and blab on about it make my skin crawl, (again obviously).

    The majority of the jobs created during the Obama years were service sector.  (Low paying). Which is why the SNAP numbers went up by millions.  Yeah, that’s what we call helping the middle class.

    I will say it again. I feel sorry for you. Covers is not a political commentary site and the people that gather here would receive little to no attention at any serious site. Not one in ten posts contains anything of value. Not one "Trumper Thumper" has ever seen even one of his bad aspects, and there are still many idiots willing to argue the birther issue (Constitutional scholars, one and all).

    Sorry bud, this is an entertainment only site for me and will not change.

    Now, as for this border issue and the 10K, 15K, 100K, or whatever number it is up to now with illegal immigrants. I find it hard to believe Trump and the Air Farce have not yet ordered 150 million gallons of Napalm from Dow (they still have the formula, right?). Simple matter to buy all privately held land within three miles of the border (junk bonds Donny), move our border forces back and VOILA! Light her up baby! Let's see the suckers get through that mother! While the Napalm is burning out we can have the Air Farce strafe the entire area, just in case some brave souls in asbestos suits tried their luck. 

    I guess I still need to develop a policy for the Dems waiting at the border with I.D. cards, welfare checks, and voting instructions, but may leave it up to the geniuses on this site to decide whether they get moved back with our border forces or should we just leave them there to be among the first martyrs when the holocaust begins? 

    Someone please tell NASA we are going to want satellite coverage of the three mile wide strip of Napalm as it burns through the night. We can all gather in city parks to sing the National Anthem and other war-oriented patriotic songs. Greatest patriotic rally in history and NOT ONE dark skinned, hispanic speaking freaking democrat got through.

    Praise the Lord! (and pass the ammunition)

    As a political ploy, Trump is fear mongering about immigrant caravan.  He falsely claims the caravan is a national emergency.  Even a foxnews journalist admits the caravan isn't an assault on the US.  Trump threatens to sent US military but Pentagon hasn't been asked.  By law,  military is limited to administrative support to help border patrol.  Not to stop illegal border crossings.

    For years, caravans come annually with only a minority of refugees actually reaching US border.  Vast majority are fleeing violence and poverty.  Seeking asylum is not illegal at ports of entry under international law.  Inaccurate for Trump to claim US is required to accept all people crossing border.  No evidences that caravan is funded by democrats giving illegal immigrants the right to vote or consists of criminals, middle east terrorists, MS-13 members or drug dealers burning american flags according to politifact and other fact checkers.

    Building a wall won't stop illegal drugs.  Most drugs enter through legal ports of entry.  Also cutting foreign aid to central american countries may backfire because it helps to keep people from leaving.  Despite Trump criticism, Mexico is stopping immigrants from reaching the US.  Mexico deports more central americans than the US.

    Your comments are juvenile. Napalm, really? If you ever saw the results of napalm you wouldn't make such a pathetic attempt at humor. If you don't appreciate the comments in this forum than stay out. It's really easy piglet.

Not one "Trumper Thumper" has ever seen even one of his bad aspects, and there are still many idiots willing to argue the birther issue (Constitutional scholars, one and all). Sorry bud, this is an entertainment only site for me and will not change. Now, as for this border issue and the 10K, 15K, 100K, or whatever number it is up to now with illegal immigrants. I find it hard to believe Trump and the Air Farce have not yet ordered 150 million gallons of Napalm from Dow (they still have the formula, right?). Simple matter to buy all privately held land within three miles of the border (junk bonds Donny), move our border forces back and VOILA! Light her up baby! Let's see the suckers get through that mother! While the Napalm is burning out we can have the Air Farce strafe the entire area, just in case some brave souls in asbestos suits tried their luck.  I guess I still need to develop a policy for the Dems waiting at the border with I.D. cards, welfare checks, and voting instructions, but may leave it up to the geniuses on this site to decide whether they get moved back with our border forces or should we just leave them there to be among the first martyrs when the holocaust begins?  Someone please tell NASA we are going to want satellite coverage of the three mile wide strip of Napalm as it burns through the night. We can all gather in city parks to sing the National Anthem and other war-oriented patriotic songs. Greatest patriotic rally in history and NOT ONE dark skinned, hispanic speaking freaking democrat got through. Praise the Lord! (and pass the ammunition)

    Your comments are juvenile. Napalm, really? If you ever saw the results of napalm you wouldn't make such a pathetic attempt at humor. If you don't appreciate the comments in this forum than stay out. It's really easy piglet.

    Hey midnight...if you hate your president so much, you should get out yourself and pick another nation to support that aligns with your beliefs...to live under Trumps rule for another 6 years will be the end of you...get out now while you can.

    midnight,

     

    You missed his intention...I got it exactly, you didnt. Read what he said to me first then read that...he is saying Trump supporters might fit into that category, not that he feels that way or it is his opinion.
