Stock market growth is the 3rd highest of any president's first 100 days (going back to Ike).

You do know it was the Dems who forced banks to give low income people loans that they could not afford, right? The aim was that every American would have a house.
Pretty sure I adressed how Republicans drove the economy into a ditch.

You think he can change the direction of the economy in less than 100 days?
And you think we call him God Emperor

why would you want to change the direction of an economy that is already in a cycle of growth?

No idiot, they are for the first 3 months of the year, the first 3 weeks which were before the inauguration and most of the rest spent with the dems in the senate beating off instead of approving of the cabinet.
You people are absolute kooks.
WTF do you think obama was doing to promote economic growth? This should be hilarious.

No you didn't. You made a statement. And it was wrong. here is what you said:
by forcing democrats to be in charge 15 years earlier and make banks to give loans to low income people with no credit or bad credit.
1. How did the GOP FORCE the Democrats to be in charge, pray tell?
2. It was the Dems who embarked on the "Everybody should have a house" mantra that lead to people who could not afford loans getting them.
You honestly don't remember, or are you being obtuse?

Seriously? This is a thread criticizing Trump is it not? And are you denying that you are posting in it?

Let me help your memory out:
Clinton, however, sowed the seeds of the Great Recession by helping to inflate the housing bubble, a key part of the financial debacle of 2007. But this wasn’t because he (not George W. Bush) signed two financial deregulation bills.

This explains Clinton's Mortgage deregulation bill

The origin of the subprime mortgage blowout that sparked the financial crisis of 2008 and 2009 goes back to the Clinton administration, says former Sen. Phil Gramm, R-Texas.
In 1992, then-presidential candidate Bill Clinton recommended using private pension funds to "'invest' in government priorities, such as affordable housing, to 'generate long-term, broad-based economic benefits,'" Gramm, now senior partner at US Policy Metrics, and Mike Solon, a partner at US Policy Metrics, write in The Wall Street Journal.

Coal plant closures since November
The Arizona plant is actually the victim of California liberal politics. It was selling its output to California utilities--until California passed a law prohibiting utilities from purchasing power from coal-fired plants.

Good grief. It was and still is in a growth cycle - a very anemic one. <2% growth won't sustain sufficient (quality) job creation.

I noticed a strange smell and smoke coming from somewhere. I was wondering. I am ashamed that my sarcasm meter did not pick it up, though.
My bad and my apologies!
