I Made a Mistake on Growth

It seemed possible to me (and others) that growth could hit 4 percent late this year.
I was wrong.
Completely wrong.
It happened in the second quarter.
Thoughts?

When Trump was elected he said he predicted he could hit 4% growth during his first term, laughter from the experts and media. John and I predicted Trump could do it on this board, laughter from clown and elk, clown predicted he would never break 2%.
Well today we learned he hit 4.1% and the experts are NOW predicting it's here to stay. Dudes, we're watching America come back alive right before our eyes.

^^^^^^ And first thing RealTool starts with a bald faced lie. It's what he does.
But it's amazing that Trump is approaching Obama's performance, isn't it?

Annual GDP growth under Obama never exceeded 3 percent.

Yes, it's just one more thing fucking hypocrite conservatives love about Trump.
He is the antithesis of every moral value they espouse.
He makes them all feel right at home.

Annual growth under Obama in 2011 was 1.6 and 2.6 in 2014 and only 1.5 in 2016 when he left office. It never came near 3 percent under Obama's 8 years in office.

No, the average for his presidency.
The GDP growth was dismal, and that was because of his socialism, bent toward high taxes, and his main focus on pandering abroad to American foes.

You dishonest scum are now trying to change the definition of GDP growth to ANNUAL growth.
Unfortunately for your idiotic thread, if you do so now, then Trump has never exceded 3% annual growth either, you imbeciles, so this thread becomes meaningless, doesn't it. :lol: :lol: :lol:
Once dishonest lying conservative scum, always lying conservative scum.

No, I'm being patient because Clownslacker is ignorant of the process.
What I posted was correct.
That aside, Trump's approach has obviously been great for growth, and Obama's was terrible.
Them's the facts, kiddo.

Clown - You dishonest scum are now trying to change the definition of GDP growth to ANNUAL growth.
Dude you're the one that claimed Obama's annual growth was over 3 percent. Read it and weep.
John- Annual GDP growth under Obama never exceeded 3 percent.
Clown - Au contraire, mon frère. You seem to have conveniently overlooked 2011 and 2014 for some reason, johnny.
Me- Annual growth under Obama in 2011 was 1.6 and 2.6 in 2014 and only 1.5 in 2016 when he left office. It never came near 3 percent under Obama's 8 years in office.

Tool, johnfibs started this thread about the second quarter GDP growth number.
Once he found out that Obama still did better than Trump, he then had to change the subject to annual growth in a dishonest attempt to be right when I showed him Trump's numbers aren't as good as what Obama did. He always tries to do the old 'slick willy' change of subject. I just didn't notice his dishonesty until after I posted. I responded to johnny's topic of the thread instead of his dishonest scumbaggery.
EXCUUUUUUUSE ME! For thinking johnfibs might actually stick to his own topic.
That said, If Obama's numbers were "dismal" then Trump's are worse than dismal because he still hasn't had an annual growth that surpasses three percent. What I posted was correct. Them's the facts.

^^^^^ And that's RealTool's way of admitting he agrees with johnforbes that Trump's GDP numbers are more dismal that Obama's.
He just hopes his desperate distraction will make everyone forget the always-unfortunate facts for conservatives. :lol:

4% growth is an outlier. Obviously it's not sustainable in the long run.
Trump just tacked on 1 trillion more on to the national debt.

Whew, the Left even becomes enraged when good things happen.
As to whether 4 percent will be the new norm, that is unknown but -- unlike the Left -- I am rooting for America to succeed.

Normally when you have positive economic news, the stock market normally goes up.
However last Friday, the stock market dropped while Trump was bragging about 4.1% GDP growth.
The market was down because growth isn’t expected to last. Much of the growth is from products that are facing tariffs, buyers stocked up.

The real problem is that, after steady portfolio growth since the spring of 2009, the numbers have burned off my pocket calculator.
Early in the morning of Nov 9, 2016, Nobel winner Krugman said the stock market would be down permanently under Trump.
Since then, the Dow added about 6000 points.
This winning is almost starting to wear me out.
Almost.

Silly...
Under Obama GDP exceeded 4% on multiple occasions.
Yet the tea baggers lambasted Obama for running up the national debt for cleaning up the mess caused by the Bush administration for 8 years.
Apparently the same tea baggers have gone silent as Trump has tacked on another 1.5 trillion dollars to the national debt.
Looks like hypocrisy is not getting in your way........
LMFAO!

Deficits matter, of course, and that is true regardless of the occupant of the Oval Office.
But the theory is that you enlarge the economy and eventually (key word) increase tax revenues by taking a smaller slice of a bigger pie.
This theory is beyond the mental capacity of modern liberals.
They simply don't get it.

Instead he just gives up and says "I guess I'm destined to be a dumbfuck."
namandgulfdumbfuck is a dumbfuck because he knew in advance that no teacher could explain anything to him that he didn't already understand. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
