    The stock market's doing well. Jobs are plentiful. Taxes are lower. He has not been a complete disaster in my opinion.

    Not for much longer though. Trump's policies and bad decisions are kicking in. Once those traiffs hit, the economy is going to sink faster than the Titantic

    The retail biz has been scrambling to sell as much as possible before the tariff crunch hits them....post Xmas you might see a huge change ….companies bought supplies from overseas in massive quantities knowing the tariffs were coming ever since Trump was elected....a lot of money has moved around which gives the illusion of a great economy...long term it's not the same landscape

    Didnt you in another thread just say that Obama isnt relevant anymore, and that bringing him up is just deflection. Im not neccessarily disagreeing with you, but I always find humor in this. Anything positive that happened when Obama was in, people who liked Obama, oh look how good our form of government is, when it was negative Bush set him up! Its hilarious that everything is spun to appease the cognitive bias people had previously (myself included).

    Yes I did, and the post you referenced was what he had done in the past, not now or in the future. You are taking comments out of context to fit your narrative as he is no longer in office which was my main point in the previous post. No spin on my end unless you're trying to spin it.

    I'm not saying you're the one spinning it, I'm saying that is how things get sput in general, though yes, you and I, and all of us with a Human brain do in fact see what we want to see sometimes. It's out of context, how you on one hand say Obama is irrelevant now, then when someone says oh something good, you said well thank Obama. So is Obama still relevant now or not? If we're still benefiting from him he's relevant.

    Wow, does that explain why my wife hears what she wants to hear? Anyone else ever notice that sort of thing with your wives?
