    Republicans killed every bill that attempted to regulate fanny and Freddy from 2001-2007, as I showed you.

    There is only one explanation, lol. Republicans killed every attempt to regulate Fannie and Freddy. The recession is 100% their fault.

    You have to understand that @rahl is convinced everything Trump is doing is being done by Obama. He evidently has not heard of the 2016 election.

    It’s a demonstrable fact. I gave you the congressional voting g record for each of those bills, lol. Republicans killed every attempt to avoid the recession from 2001-2007 lol

    It’s astounding the ability trumpets have of looking at demonstrable, verifiable data showing their whacky ideas are entirely bullshit, but pretend that data shows something different. Lol

    The data is quite clear. The economic trend has remained the same for 9 straight years.

    And how anyone could believe Bush43 could have and should have vetoed a budget that was passed after he left office and is responsible for it's resulting deficit and addition to the debt is beyond me but that is another of his claims.

    The trend in the LFPR for the last nine years especially those under Democrat policies was over the cliff, that platitude after the Republicans took back the Congress and is now going back up under Republican policies. So even while we have historic low unemployment we are increasing the LFPR as jobs are being created, good jobs, at rates we haven't seen in a decade. Thank you Republicans, why on earth would you want to go back to the 2008 - 2014 years and those Democrat policies?

    Why do you attribute that to Obama, what policies of his caused that?

    You said this was false
    "The trend in the LFPR for the last nine years especially those under Democrat policies was over the cliff, that platitude after the Republicans took back the Congress and is now going back up under Republican policies. So even while we have historic low unemployment we are increasing the LFPR as jobs are being created, good jobs, at rates we haven't seen in a decade. Thank you Republicans, why on earth would you want to go back to the 2008 - 2014 years and those Democrat policies?"

    The data shows that under the Democrat policies we had a collapse of the LFPR and that under Republican policies that paltaude and is now reversing.
