Judge for yourselves. The OP has done another piece for the left. As if that justifies the hate-Trump-campaign. It's nothing but leftist attempt to minimize the administration's attempts to turn things around -- and nothing more than a left wing opinion piece.

Hey y'all -- there IS another side.
And that 'other side' is extremely short of specifics when it starts praising Trump's alleged accomplishments.

You actually look at the other side of things?

Wow. Kudos.

Does it give you a headache or anything?

Only allegedly adult Americans who confuse talking about doing some with actually doing it.

Default His First 100 Days

Obama:
When he took office, the Dow plunged. After his inauguration it closed at 7,949.09.
100 days later, it was 8,076.29. - a rise of +1.6%

But then it continued to fall until March, when it bottomed out at 6,507.04. - a fall of -18.1%

Yet all these Democrats are just slobbering all over Obama, and ready to tell us all what HE accomplished in HIS first 100 days and ready to compare HIM to anyone.
They know nothing.

Trump:
On Jan 20, 2017 the Dow was at 19,827.
Today it is at 20,750.
A gain of +4.6%

Who's your Daddy, Dems?

So your saying the market went from about 8,000 under Obama and when he left it was 19,827, and you think we should have problem with that?

You still drunk from the weekend?

Gee, do you think that it might have something to do with what was happening to the US and the world in 2008-2009? Not exactly comparing apples to apples in what each one stepped into.

And people ask what is wrong with righties.

That was either the most disingenuous post of all time or is evidence of right wingers inability to think critically.

Obama inherited two wars, a housing crisis, and a recession. Republican president George W. Bush handed Obama what truly was a mess.

Trump claims to have been handed over "a mess," but actually inherited the lowest unemployment numbers in 10 years and no wars.

But tell us again how Trump is our savior and he got so much done in his first 100 days.

Nope. You Dems are the one all hot about the first 100 days.
I'm just saying y'all ain't got squat.

It's the first half of the first inning and evidently you are ready to call it a game.

The latter, unfortunately.

Not to paint with a broad brush, there are some true conservatives out there with brains. But many of the hardcore Trumpers don't think critically.
