No one has a problem having discussions with you. But you have to make sense of what you're typing.

Don't get mad at us for not being able to read what you type.

hadn't it been rising since 2011?



That was my point but apparently after my point was made about what started the rise they “can’t have a serious conversation” anymore.

Obama got more Republicans elected into office than any other President in history, so he has THAT. THANKS, OBAMA!

there seems to be an argument among our leftist brethren that this was Obama's doing there does?


damn! link that, i wanna see it!


This OP was for the ProgDim leftists...., you’re not a Prog/Dim, are ya?

BTW, the anti Trumpers/Enemedia are claiming the good GDP number is due to soybeans and other agricultural goods being transacted before the tariffs kick in, probably a factor but still a good GDP number

I sure hope you don't speak like this in real life. Also, punctuation isn't just for squares anymore.

This is true. For as much credit as Trump deserves, he had the easiest job in the world. Just get gov't out of the damn way.

So you are seriously crediting Obama and his recovery act for 2018 2nd quarter GDP #'s?

Y’all didn’t want an answer it’s obvious. But any rational person can see the recovery act that was passed ended the recession and helped by the second year. It has been growing ever since and is still growing. If any part of that is wrong then let me know, otherwise thats that.

Obama himself did nothing to affect the 2018 2nd quarter no.

So the government is out of the way now?

You do realize that if that is the case, then Obama's economic policies were even shittier than advertised, right? So, theres that, that you will be unwilling to admit...

Fine. But it’s just as disingenuous as asking what Orville Wright specifically did to help design the F-16.

Well, some people also point the the bank bailout of 2008 as well.

In addition, many argue that the gains from the recovery act were minimal, and that we were at the trough of the recession when Obama took office so the economy had no where to go but up. It's also argued that Obama's increased regulations and spending slowed the economic growth and that without such government interference, the recovery would have been much quicker.
