1- i'm from ny and i know a con-man when i see one
2- i'm a career salesman. There's a 'saying' among us salesmen: "you can't bs a salesman - we know when someone is bsing"
it's comic relief for me to hear trump bsing non-stop
what's even funnier is listening to trump supporters:
1- trump didn't say that
2- trump said it but he didn't mean it
3- trump is misunderstood
4 - you took it outta context
5- so what if he said it
6- crooked hillary
7- "fake news"
8-Trump is trolling the Libs
9-But...but...but...Obama...
OK, well I'll take the word of professional odds makers who as a group have similar predictions, and have millions of dollars riding on being right over your prediction.
I'm not betting on any of it anyway. My original reason for bringing up the vegas odds is because they are a viable alternative to polls.
t206 doesn't understand Vegas betting!
Vegas odds makers set the odds - they don't necessarily bet. Once betting begins it's the bettors that set the odds
These are numbers which Trump referred to as "garbage", "pathetic", "anemic" and "disastrous".
c'mon Finn, Trump doesn't know/remember what he said this morning. And, everything he says is a reaction to the moment.
More importantly he's like the guy who looks at a 12 oz glass w 6" of water in it and says "it's practically full" if it's his glass. If it's a Dem glass it's "almost empty"
I'm onto Trump the con=man and perpetual liar - he's comic relief
But to keep the thread on topic, the economy basically sux.
3.5% a year stock market since this thread started - despite trillions in "goosing". GDP is up a tiny amount but most of that isn't good for the average American.
I'm not going to claim Trump created all these problems - most are long term. But he sure isn't helping them and it will take decades to recover from some of the harms he is doing...let alone fix the stuff that was already there when he took office.
Craigirl, the decline in the stock market began May 2018, the date that Trump's "easy to win China War" began. 18 months later we're still waiting for victory. mfg is in a recession, 300K jobs were lost, GDP is down .7% due to Trade War. The stock market has grown near 0% in 18 months vs. 10% per year for previous 8-9 years. Quick arithmetic says we've lost $4 trillion in the stock market. (I'm personally suing Trump for my portfolio not growing instead of the usual 10%).
Then "Perfectly Sane Genius" signed tax cut bill into law because"GDP will rise 4-5-6% for a very long time." Didn't work as intended. GDP grew from 2% to 3%....for one quarter...then it fell back to 2% and now it's 1.9%. And we're $2 trillion more in debt.
Yeah, "Trump is absolutely the greatest on the economy."
