    Nothing but prevarications coming out of your mouth. There is no chance of an honest debate because you are too proud to admit your faults or lies. The media is looking for those types to carry on the mission.

    I cannot speak for all on the right because mankind is a broken vessel, but we do follow God's edicts. Sometimes the answers and the paths are obvious. Celebrating gross perversions and killing the unborn are surely not two of them.

    You need to take a good long look in the mirror, can you say "Pot calling the Kettle black".

    What mission are you on?

    How do you equate Right and God in the same sentence.

    Being racist and thinking you are superior are not either.

    You might be on the verge of something truly GROUND BREAKING!

    Could be the answer to many inner cities human decay and lack of drive to succeed and lack of interest in productivity! You sir are a genius, and I mean that with a great amount of sincerity!

    Once again, no defense. Just prevaricate. Like no one notices.

    Yes, I have grown cynical. I see this nation in peril, filled with ego driven liars. Far, far more on the left. Go bravely into the night poor fools. Cannot say many of us have not tried.

    There is nothing for me to defend. All you are doing is making accusations and giving your opinion.

    This nation has ego driven liars since it was founded.

    Depends on who you ask.

    Are you feeling foolish?

    No, I am not feeling foolish, I am calling you out.
    And all you ever have to say back is "yeah, but what about you guys?"

    Nothing to defend? You mean, nothing to admit to because you really do not care how evil is your side? Ok... that's right in line with all the B.S. and lies we have had to endure for decades.

    It's funny how "progressives" got it into their heads that popularity is the measure of a president...

    Fourth worst economic record in American history.

    Average annual GDP growth: 1.48%

    But he was a popular failure! Super-ficial!!

    Old news, on election day 3 million more voters voted against Trump. His percentage of approval is pretty much in line with his base support, everyone else who voted for.him went down party line.

    That's been my advice to economically clueless "progressives" for decades...

    ...and if you're wondering why average annual GDP growth under Obama was 1.48%, it's because you don't understand how economics works.

    huh? People are deported all the time. Obama deported more than any other US president.

    Nobody will be arrested, because no crime has been committed.

    I understand that a business does not make multi million dollar decisions based on someones promise who may or may not get elected and may or may not pass the bills he wants. The concept is beyond ridiculous.

    Furthermore these types of business decisions take time to implement and even longer to see results on a national scale. Certainly not within a year.

    I love it when conservatives pretend the worst recession in 80 years never happened. He managed to take UE from over 10% to under 5%. The stock market doubled, and reached record highs. he has the most consecutive months of job growth of any other US president. and did all of this with a totally obstructed republican congress

    Claiming he was anything but successful just makes you look silly.

    Actually, businesses and consumers do make decisions based on their confidence or lack thereof, which is why economists measure their confidence.

    What a concept, eh? :lol:

    Yet, businesses can see increased profits and investment within a year and the results are seen on the national scale right away.

    When you make a post like this all it does is show me how little you understand about economics.

    Not really. Polls have never captured Trump's support effectively. His Favorability on Gallup was about 33% shortly before he won 30 States.

    What do you think explains his spike to 39%?

    I love it how "progressives" pretend that other presidents haven't done better during worst economic downturns.

    And it took a lot longer than it should have because of his policies. Remember the "stimulus" and "shovel ready jobs" that didn't produce the job growth Obama promised?

    And who can forget Chuck Schumer's mea culpa about how Democrats should have focused on the economy instead of ObamaCare, etc., when they controlled both ends of Pennsylvania Avenue. I agree with Cryin' Chuck that if Dems had actually worked to improve jobs and the economy they wouldn't have lost both chambers of Congress (and later the White House).

    Given the depth of the recession and the policies enacted by Obama's predecessor, a mouldering heap of roadkill could have produced similar, if not better results. It goes to show how resilient the market was despite Obama's policies.

    Again, that's not saying much, given the depth of the recession, the time it took and the historically low labor participation rates that were the only thing driving down the unemployment rate at many times.

    Again, more misleading claims. Democrats controlled both chambers of Congress before voters wisely put a halt to Obama's destructive policies in 2010, and it's a good thing they did that or things would have been worse.

    Claiming the fourth worst economic record in history and 1.48% annual economic growth is successful is delusional. If Obama had been successful Hillary Clinton would be president today.

    There hasn't been one, since the great depression. We didn't have the luxury of a WWII reconstruction effort to boost our economy this time.


    lol
    lol


    lol

    worst economic record in history? lol. I just showed you otherwise.

    .
    The American people chose Hillary. The electoral college selected trump.

    Whoops.

    The great trick is to find a projection from television: the mugs can easily be trained to believe it is a friend of theirs.
