... BTW, his administration averaged 2%, the lowest for a recovery since the Great Depression, half of the average and 1/4 of the Reagan recovery.

Remember, we were told by those eggheads that 2% growth was the new normal. Personally, as a hard working American, I was insulted. Get government out of the way and 4%+ could be the new normal.

"The illegal alien has his shoes on our desk again."

The Resolute Desk of all things! Surprised they didn't draw goofy mustaches on the historical portaits of George Washington and others.

It astounds me the disrespect that the Kenyan and Clinton showed in the Oval Office. Then there were the condoms on the Christmas tree and the photo of Clinton supporters jumping on bed in the Lincoln Bedroom, and of course the crimes to numerous to mention.

Like President Reagan, President Trump always wears a coat and tie in the Oval Office.

See, this is what can happen when you put a race car (self-made billionaire businessman) driver at the wheel of a race car (The American Economy) rather than a pussy who is only used to riding a bicycle.

Thanks, jdsteel.

The liberals will claim credit saying that Obama’s economy is responsible for this growth.

The problem is that Obama’s economy nearly dipped back into recession about 2014, IIRC. They had quarters at 0.5 and 0.6% growth in close proximity. That is nearly the 0% in 2 consecutive quarters that is the definition of a recession.

If using a school grading system, I view

0% = F
1% = D
2% = C
3% = B
4% = A
5+% = A+

The Upper Middle Class Country Club Goper I know is firmly convinced the figures on growth and employment are cooked and far off. His take is that the rats have so massively cooked the reporting criteria for both the Fed and the BLS it will take a long time if ever before valid federal numbers on economic performance and job market and unemployment if ever can be obtained. His take is there clearly is positive economic and jobs activity going on but thanks to BHO and his minions we really don’t know where the economy is. Wall Street is just enjoying a classic bubble binge with all the cheap money that is still around and a very big downward correction is inevitable according to this fellow. This fellow is a classic RINO , likes near open borders frankly to provide lots of cheap labor, views the Republican base with withering contempt. and pretty much openly only cares about his direct family and a small sub class type he belongs to. However, he truly hates BHO and the dems for massively frauding the economic reporting structure of the Fed and the Dept ments of Labor and Commerce.”They should all be prosecuted and be sent to jail what they did is worse than treason as it effects basic national economic decision making. This fellow is not a very nice fellow but he is certainly is bright and does spend time with bankers and financial managers and studies various economic indicators religiously and is brutally candid about his belief system and economic deductions.

It's starting to negatively impact the Corvus population, why with all the crow being served up daily. It's not just the President's winning, he is doing so while making utter fools out of the big mouth, know-it-all “experts.” Enjoy the show and the crow, you arrogant SOBs! And, to think the President is just hitting his 24/7 stride. A beautiful humming dynamo that expends more energy in an hour than his opponents can muster up in a week. Boy oh boy have they ever met their match.

When the pendulum swings it swings, from Obama being the worst President ever to the best election ever. Now we need to keep the Dems from ruining the country again.

I agree with your thoughts there. Any good citizen should.

That Christmas tree thing pretty well pegs the Clintons for what they were.

Another way of trashing American traditions.

Proof that progressives just don’t get Trump.

That, true as it is, is not nearly as critical and transcendental as grasping the missing principles that made the Late Constitutional Republic Great.

They don't 'get' that we get that, without those principles, we are just another third world country with lots of cars, cell phones, uneducated snowflakes, spaced out druggies, homeless and welfare parasites, and perverts/STDs...

Agreed! As Dan Bongino says, “Here are the new rules: We win...You lose!”

Remember during Obama's socialist/communist reign when he tried to convince the American people that high unemployment, people leaving the job market by the millions because there where no jobs to be found and low-to-non-existent GDP were all the "new normal" we just had to learn to live with in the future?

Apparently people didn't like that "new normal" and voted for Trump for his vision of normal.

And he's been kicking ass and taking names ever since. Historic lows for both black and hispanic unemployment. Stock market at new highs. GDP going to bust through the 4-5% mark. Lower taxes and more money in people's pocketbooks.

Trump doesn't have the magic wand that Obama alluded to that Trump was going to need to improve the economy.

What Trump does have is years of experience as a successful business man who understand economics like the back of his hand.

How would a community organizer ever understand the economy? Obama was too busy playing agitator and activist in South Chicago and skipped Econ 101.

Tired of winning yet?

Nope. Never will get me to admit it either.

The Left must feel like the late summer of 1984 when all their projections WAY under-estimated Reagan's economic boom at that time.

Just more irrefutable new proof of the definition of insanity...

It's hard to predict which is less likely...
Human grasp of climate, or
Eliminating the dark angels of human nature to build that mythical Marxist paradise...

I think the first interpretation is the correct one.

A distinction without a difference.

Thanks for that slick obfuscation.
I feel a lot better now.
