From the standpoint of the Economy, how can Trump NOT be viewed as a complete success?

Dow is through the roof and into the Stratosphere
Unemployment is bottoming out.
Wages are climbing.

Because he says mean stuff and inconvenient truths that hurt muh feelings.
Seriously, he is deregulating at a furious pace and unleashing the American economy. I’m looking forward to my pay raise. I truly love this man. MAGA

That’s not real. Focus on race relations and illegal immigration, these are the true priorities!

I am not a fan of Trump.
But he has made the economy great again.

Didn’t you hear, it is only booming because of Barry. It was an 8 year setup set to explode once he left office.

Oooh, I've been waiting to use 'Acquiescence' theory for a long time now. I used to be really good at it.
Here goes:
1. Capitalism is bad and will result in the destruction of humanity.
2. When things get bad enough (the crunch) people will reject capitalism and embrace Marxism.
3. The 'crunch' cannot be delayed too far into the future or it will be too late.
4. Any improvement in a capitalistic economy forestalls the coming of the crunch and dooms a timely Marxist fix.
5. Therefore, good economic news is bad.

Obama began it?
I've had a couple of people tell me that.
If somehow Trump continues this success, and America elects another race-baiter in chief in 2020, it will strike a death blow to our economy.

That's why the Dems are working so hard to take the House or Senate, because they know Trump's reelection is rock solid given that when it comes down to it, voters always vote with their wallets.

Because the economy is growing on the same trajectory it has been for almost an decade now. You don't dig out of the hole W left us in overnight. It's a long climb from the bottom back to the top.
If you give Trump credit for the economy in 2017 you have to give Obama credit for 2010-2017

No, it's not.
Bush QE'd $1 trillion in 2008, then Obama QE'd $5 trillion more from 09-12.
They bailed out over 900 companies and banks with $6 trillion new dollars printed out of thin air, all while artificially holding inflation at rock bottom.
You can't double the money supply and not raise inflation. This is how bubbles are created and this is how Obama made a shite economy look way better than it actually was.
Obama averaged 2.3% GDP over 8 years... with $6 trillion monopoly dollars.
At the same time, the middle class shrunk, the impoverished class expanded, and more people left the workforce than ever before to take welfare.
In Obama's last 2 years, he averaged 1.8% GDP growth. And the stock market went from 17,400 on Jan 1, 2015 to 17,900 on Nov 7th, 2016.
That's 2 years of horrid stagnant economy and a horrid flat stock market.
So please explain what Obama did that supposedly took him from 2 years of stagnant economy and flat markets to being credited with 3.3% GDP growth and +8,000 in stock market gain since Nov 8th, 2016.
Just name the policies that he implemented that can be attributed to this so we can see where this "credit" is we're supposed to be giving him.
I'll wait for your reply.

You are straight full of shite. The GDP growth is at 4% Obama never had that. Not to mention Obama's little quip " those jobs aren't coming back " remember that? I remember. Stop lying.

Trump should get credit for the obama years upward trend as well

such a stupid meme. the recession started because clinton reinvigorated the community reinvestment act. w had to deal with the fallout and a dem congress. obama has no excuse. he had a completely complicit congress almost the entire time he was in office. quote:so the economy was in the tank from 08-16 but as soon as trump started rolling back regulations, BOOM. the economy started getting better. but - obama did it.

Umm, sure, okay.....I'll give him credit for that.
