Trumps economy ran on nothing but Fed tricks and borrowed money, just like Joes and Obamas


Unlike "Joe and Obama," Trump created an economy which resulted in the lowest unemployment rate EVER for blacks, Hispanics, and Asians (almost the lowest for women, too). Trump cut unneeded business regulations, had an aggressive drilling policy that made America energy independent and sent gas prices to their lowest levels in a long time.

He also aggressively defended the border, which led to a drastic drop in illegal immigration (remember the infamous chart?). Obama had told Trump that North Korea and little Rocket Man was our biggest threat, but Trump made one trip and basically rendered him irrelevant.

Your assessment of Trump's first term has more holes than 10 slices of Swiss cheese.

And here come the identity politics to try to make sense of it.


Why did Trump need to Fed to bail him out in 2019 if the unemployment rate was so great?

So he can’t grow the economy while slashing spending and he can’t grow it enough to outpace the debt? Well, by your rationale we might as well just quit because he can’t do anything. That’s a heck of a political position you are taking, complaining about everything. It makes sense now, Trump can’t do anything to assuage you

the only way he will grow the economy is more debt, Exactly like his previous 4 years.

His economy ran on record debt levels.

So, why aren't you championing the efforts of Truump, Musk, and DOGE to cut out wasteful and fraudulent spending?

Something isn't adding up here.

Oh, I am.

Youre just going to be disappointed when it comes to actual cuts. Again for you, Trumps interest is growing the economy which will come via debt.

Memo to Roger - Do you thinknthe Fed is pro-Trump. The Fed is a huge part of the problem.

But anyway, "good job" on ignoring the economic accomplishments Trump had in his first term.

No one should believe he is going to slash trillions in debt in one fell swoop but let’s start with billions and work our way up. Trump is beholden to a Republican party that has no backbone so it’s likely they will pass a CR but that isn’t his fault that they fight him at every turn

This has absolutely nothing to do with anything I said.

Trump wants interest rates cut to zero

Trump pushes fed for more cuts

Trump begs fed for help in election year.

All of this while unemployment was 3.5%.

Trump has no desire to cut govt spending. Zero. He pays lip service to it.

Don't you understand that Trump is the one who put Musk and DOGE in business? You're speaking out of both sides of your mouth.

He promised to end 19 trillion in debt in 8 years, then proceeded to do the exact opposite.

Purely advisory.

Trump and Congress will need to make the cuts. Youre going to be disappointed.

Another incredibly insightful post, from one of the board's resident angry black men.

I bet it's killing you that young, independent thinking black men are waking up.

Just yesterday you were whining about him saying he wanted to cut military spending. You are precisely what the OP described. Your economic acumen is limited to what wiki tells you. You aren’t anything special. Just another TDS infected loser. I do like it when you melt and start calling other posters girls, though.

The Left can't meme because they pretend that everything Trump says is literal.

Yet when Chuck Schumer stands on the steps of the USSC and openly threatens Justices or Reps state literally that weapons need to be used to stop Trump, they dismiss it as 'figurative' speech. This after a Bernie campaign staffer shot up a ball field and nearly killed multiple Republicans, 2 attempts on Trump's life, and an attempt on Justice Kavanaugh have been made, you still don't get it.

PLEASE! Keep crying about 'muh mean tweets!'

I don’t know about the opposite but he is good at bluster no doubt. Again, Trump is beholden to a Republican leadership that is pretty useless and I am not going to re-litigate the Covid hoax

You mean the one he obviously lied to your fat arse and told you he wanted to cut it in half, just 4 years after busting the budget to grow it?

Dunces.

I love when he figures out ends around for this and a few self-appointed philosophical purists start squealing how he’s not doing things the “right way.’
