That speech occurred in 2019. Never did he do so as POTUS. He also gave credit to others and accepted responsibility for failures. He was attacked relentlessly by his opponents and never did he strike out with juvenile name calling. He didn’t make personal attacks on McConnell when he wouldn’t give his SCOTUS nominee a hearing.

Today he isn’t tweeting about Trump playing golf in the midst of a crisis or the millions in tax dollars being spent to fly Trump to his properties.

One man acts like an adult, the other like a spoiled child.


This is one of the most ridiculous fantasies I’ve ever read.

If Obama hadn’t done his standup routine in 2011 making fun of Trump, Trump would have never decided to become POTUS and undo all of Obama’s EO governance.

Literally, the only reason Trump became POTUS is because Obama acted like a child.
 
At this point in Obama’s presidency the Dow was up 65.1%, Trump was at 5.4% as of Friday. With the exception of the first 3 months the return on the Obama market has been greater than the Trump market. Trying to say that the market is still numerically higher, thus better is asinine. If I invested $100,000 at the beginning of each term I would have significantly more under the Obama market.

Any comment on the newly created manufacturing jobs or Obama's magic wand statement or the new normal statement from Obama about the type jobs people should have? (Yeah RQ, the public having jobs is an important factor don't you think? Please comment about these as I am curious of your thoughts.... Also please comment on the tax cut situation...Also please comment on regulations past and present... Please do that for fair and balanced coverage... (I can go deeper on the stock market and will but I will give you a chance to respond first.) Thanks

You do understand that talking in percentages is rather ridiculous. The lower the numbers you're dealing with the higher the percentages will be. OK, under Obama the market literally doubled. 100% increase from around 9K to around 18K. (just using round numbers for effect here) so it rose about 9K in his 8 years. Under Trump the market had gone up to over 30K before all of this mess. (which was out of his control). That"s roughly a 12K increase in less than 4 years. A substantially larger increase numbers wise, but only 66% due to the much higher numbers being dealt with.

Oh, and can you please tell me what the Interest rates were under Obama during his first 4 years? like the whole 4 years? Wasn't it basically the same as it was just adjusted to? (you know, the rate that it took an international pandemic to get it lowered to?)

exactly, LOL...where are the highest concentrations of the virus at the moment? Seattle (Lib Country), New York (Lib Country), California (Lib Country), Massachusetts (Lib Country).

Hmm... am I a bad person for wanting big pharma to hold off on that vaccine for a little longer?

You make a great point and isn't it ironic this seems to be a virus that is not that adverse to the young. It hits the old people hardest and they seem to be handling it the best. Sign of a mentally weak generation of youth. Maybe?

Any event this day and age, whether it's corona virus, a tweet from the President, a drone strike on some bad guys, twisting some arms diplomatically abroad, etc...seems to really devolve and turn into something completely warped from what it really is.

I mean we just came out of a cycle of world war 3 panic, that turned out to be nothing.

In an age where people are living with HIV, cancer, and a continuous cycle of flu seasons, some sort of outbreak (sars, h1n1, ebola) at least once or twice a decade, what's the story with this?

Now that we have bailouts certainly on the way - who gets them? Everyone will be severely impacted but how can everyone be bailed out?

The only fair way is to waive income tax for an entire taxable year.

Of course we can't afford it. But we can't afford the other bailouts either and at least this is the most fair

It is amazing to see all of the mainstream media turn into Koch Foundation free trade purists now that Trump wants to bring industry home. Maybe it's because the divide isn't capitalism and socialism, but rather globalism and nationalism and those f**kwits are globalists who are likely on the Chinese payroll in some respect.

Every soy infused journalo on Twitter is now pumping out the same New Yorker article about Navarro and how he isn't seen as a "real" economist by the "consensus" and his ideas that being totally dependent on China for basic goods is "fringe." They are doing this right now. As in, literally minutes ago. Without the slightest sense of irony.

Obama used “I” ALL the time during his presidency. Your best defense is “this speech happened in 2019 so it doesn’t show he’s an ego maniac.” Well, okay.

Obama’s opponents weren’t 99% of the media. Trump is probably attacked by MSM once every 45 seconds. Sometimes it’s justified. Most of the time it’s not. He’s not a good boy like Bush who just sat there and took it and that upsets liberals.

Yeah, Trump needs to shut his mouth sometimes. The guy has faults. Just the other day he said this shouldn’t be political and then made a political tweet. That didn’t look good. He isn’t perfect and no one is saying he is.

But you.. I can’t remember which poster asked you to come up with one negative comment about Obama, but it’s been months ago and you just can’t do it. I’d bet Obama could spy on campaigns and drone the shit out of civilians and you couldn’t come up with a single bad comment.
 
Or hypochondriacs - who have a 90% chance of being Lib..

Yep. Panic causing tons of anxiety testing, wasting resources.

I want repayment for my stock prices loss.

Me too. And any other money lost.

That's why I think abatement of income tax is the only fair way. Otherwise you're just arbitrarily writing a check to some people for some amount

Something that will never happen but should is a total F'ing reset of the economy. Every single debt wiped clean and the currency restored to something that actually makes sense. We are tied to unsustainable fiat money based mathematically impossible usury.

Again, that will never happen, but we're literally just staving off the inevitable anyway
 
Kys closure of bars and restaurants is the most glaring over reach of state power yet imo.

Sunday morning he said he'd consider closing them if people didn't stop going.

Sunday afternoon all bars and restaurants said they were closing their dining room.

Monday morning beshear ordered it anyway.

Needs to shut his mouth 'sometimes'? His inaction and lies have caused most of the panic in the marketplace. People can't even trust that he actually was tested because he lies 80% of the time.

The difference between Trump and Obama is that one is a decent human being, capable of empathy, and had enough self-confidence that he didn't need to be the center of attention or cry about every single criticism. The other is a narcassist, incapable of admitting any faults, and most all decisions are through the lens of 'how does this affect me'.

Oh, also hearing that Trump will be calling for a nationwide shutdown in the next 2 hours. May want to get any last minute essentials.

I see you can’t meet the challenge either.

You and your types hatred for Trump far surpasses your love for America.

yawn. Yeah I'm a scary socialist. And you want the feudal system to come back. Because you sure don't support capitalism any longer.

Well that's just your imagination which hopefully will never be tested, but if your assessment actually came to past, that would be more Christian of me than if I were to rape children and gun down unarmed and scared people's in their own country who never attacked me. Would't you agree?

False, the Christian thing to do would be to face the enemy and stop the raping and killing. If you are suggesting that that is what our military does then you are the most uninformed dumbass liberal idiot here.

Thy shalt not kill. Unless of course the politicians who I voted for tell me to! Then I am relieved of any moral responsibility for any act or hedonistic glory I ascribe to myself in my ethical character for doing such.

What a earth shattering journey to the center of what all those religious types like to think of as the soul. Of course the person lying dead in the mud so that wealthy men could enrich themselves even more may think of it as the abyss. Just a thought.
False, delve more into the Bible and companion Bibles and your will find that in the original Hebrew and Chaldean languages the word was murder. Do no murder. Learn something before you post because you are looking dumber by the day.

It's truly amazing some of the things that come out of your mouth. I would love for you to make that comment to a veteran. Just one time I would love to see that. Of course everybody knows that would never happen if you lived to be 247 years old. But I can still dream.
 
DOW opens down over 2,000 points. tRump’s strong arming the Fed is backfiring BIGLY. Interest rates have nowhere to go but negative in a prolonged down economy. His attempts at keeping the market artificially inflated through QE heading into November elections for his political gain have economically hung us out to dry. The Fed is short on bullets thanks to giving into Orangeman.
Your ignorance is backfiring bigly because you do not understand what is going on. Furthermore your glee in people dying to further the lefts agenda only proves what kind scum you really are.
 
That was translated into “Dear Leader” speak for all those who march lock-step with the dear leader.
Better marching lockstep with him than the traitorous leftwing social communist. But you go on ahead, my type will be making sure your type doesn't get very far in this country.

I haven’t seen any factories shutting down. One would think...

Exactly. They locked down any place of leisure that also happened to not be generating much tax revenue.

Meanwhile everyone else is off to work, no matter how large the group is.

How does that flatten a curve? It doesn't. They are knowingly exposing a portion the population because they need our tax revenue.

That's why they should've just gone with business as normal. There was no actual seclusion. It was all a waste of time. Except now we'll be devastated financially

You really comparing the two under the circumstances? You really are an idiot, aren't you.
