Those charts don't say anything about the topic. It's about Trump, not Obama.

All they show are the economic disaster brought to the USA by President Bush, President Obama, US Senator Obama, and US Senator Clinton.

Aren't you glad that Trump swept away both political dynasties? Your own charts give reason why.

As to the topic,

S & P 500
  • June 3 2008 - Obama Claims DNC Nomination from Hillary Clinton - 1404.50
  • Nov 2, 2008 - Obama Wins Presidency - 966.30
  • Mar 2009 - 683.38
So in 9 months after the world discovered that Obama would be President over Hillary Clinton, the market fell 51.3%. That is a crash in anyone's book.


It never recovered in Obama's first term.
Did you fall down and hit your little head? That would explain the gaping hole in your facts.

The stock market crashed in September for 2008. It had nothing to do with Obama being the Democratic party nominee and all to with massive debt, default swap and collateral debt obligation instruments held by multiple banks and investment firms all collapsing at the same time.

And why are you stopping at March 9th? You're so hot to compare Trump to Obama, use the same time frame we have so far under Trump. By the same date as today in 2009, August 7, the S&P closed at 1,010.48. I'd say a 33% is a recovery in anyone's book.

Your book is very biased and anyone can see you're trying to skew the facts to prove something that doesn't exist by trying to cherry picking your data.

Trump still winning.

People love him for it. He still fill venues beyond capacity everywhere he decides to hold rallies. This in especially important battleground states.

#MAGA.
That is, you were comparing Trump to Obama.

And again, no evidence to back any of this up. These are just numbers you pulled out of thin air. Anyone can make up numbers like that. I call BS on this post until you show evidence to the contrary. You CAN do that can't you?

But you compared Trump to Obama in your OP with a bogus claim. Therefore, you need to address the data in those charts in order to be taken seriously. You haven't done that yet. Why? Are you afraid of something?

You are correct. But your charts don't show anything about Trump. So they are irrelevant.

Furthermore, .....

They DO show the economic disaster brought to the USA by President Bush, President Obama, US Senator Obama, and US Senator Clinton.

Aren't you glad that Trump swept away both political dynasties? Your own charts give reason why.

Just did. And you ignore question asked. Aren't you glad that Trump got rid of the politicians who bought us all that doom & disaster?

You are right Waldo. Anyone can look up those stock market numbers. And when you look them up for Obama's 2 terms, this is what you get: 4th best president for the stock market, 2nd best when you count it on an annualized basis.
