Obama's regulations (which were extreme and unnecessary) killed job growth and the economy.
If you want to compare the stock market, something the POTUS has no real control over, here you go.

Obama took office on Jan. 20, 2009, the Dow Jones Industrial Average was 7,949.09.
Obama left office on Jan. 20, 2017, the Dow Jones Industrial Average was 19,827.25.

When Dow gets to 49,568.125, call us. Let that sink in.

45 is an elite and a globalist. suddenly those words apply to anyone who doesn't agree with 45 but don't apply to 45 himself?

sounds like borderline psychosis to me.
You're living in fantasy land. These politicians are corrupt to their core

Funny how the Looney Leftists who call Bannon and Trump elites don't say the same about all the Leftist millionaires and billionaires.

Bannon's use of the term 'elites' and 'establishment' refers to the political class aka The Swamp in DC. That applies to both Dems and Reps. As Dems on this thread have said, Dems stick together right or wrong and usually they are wrong. Look how they haven't said a word about Bill Clinton being just like Harvey Weinstein. The Dems always circle the wagons.

What was he charged with?

And who is running against? Another corrupty globalist?

Dang it, I missed my chance, a box of slug poison spread around the set and the infestation could have been removed. Of-course with everyone watching what they eat they may have overlooked the treats, oh well.
