Wasn't overly thrilled with Obama's presidency, but he's got a right to take credit for creating a solid economy Trump hasn't screwed up like Bush...unless you want to talk national deficit.

So, using quarterly numbers to pad Barry's stats? Now do annual. 

I guess you can shape it however you want to fit a narrative these days. 

Trump is the most loathsome human being on the planet to the left, so this is basically the equivalent of your girlfriend breaking up with you to date a 300 pound bald guy with BO and bad breath then you claiming to everyone that you were the best boyfriend in the world.

Obama was term-limited.  The nation had to "dump" him regardless of if they wanted to.

Numbers from Forbes, despite the BO and bad breath.

Hillary was Obama 2.0 and America dumped her for a reality TV star. Real America hated Obama and his policies and spoke clearly in 2016.

A REALITY TV star Mike!

If it was so good, how did a billionaire reality TV star get elected after him?

Unemployment rate in January 2009: 7.8%
Unemployment rate in January 2012  8.3% (after Obama's first three years)

A lot of the reduction after that (but just down to 8% and still higher than Bush after year four) was due to working age people giving up hope and no longer being counted by unemployment. That's not exactly an accomplishment to brag about.

Let me add that it's a lot easier to reduce unemployment from a high number (especially if you just eliminate counting most of the jobless) than reducing it to the lowest value in 50 years. Note that the last time was in January 1969 at the peak of the Vietnam war. Trump did this without sending hundreds of thousands of American working-age citizens overseas.

Unemployment by year

This explains the various unemployment calculations (U3 is the only one reported) and how the calculation has been altered over time:

Meanwhile video surfaces of Bloomberg insulting farmers' intelligence  as well as the intelligence of factory workers.  Not good.  He is truly one of the democrat "elites"  that doesn't understand rural or middle America.  Farming takes plenty of "grey matter" and is not as easy as he thinks.

Of course, he's probably never tried to raise a crop of anything other than his bull [BLEEP].

I am really struggling and trying to find a democrat that could possibly be better than Trump.  What the democrat party is running doesn't come close.

I've said it before and I'll say it again.  I predict a Trump win at least equal to or better than Reagan's 2nd election and a major landslide victory.  I just don't see any democrat being able to beat him.

I saw it on Fox News earlier.  He doesn’t even meet the Dems background check.  (Paraphrasing). All the stuff he’s said in the past, if he was a Rep, he’d be dead meat.  That party has screwed themselves over.  Using their standards, NO ONE is electable.

After being punched in the face by the reality they will never beat Trump, we are now back to the Russian interference thing.

Democrats are a sad bunch.

It's almost comical.........they waste all that air time before a national audience foaming at the mouth about Trump, rather than using the opportunity to put forth their own platforms.

Well, if they had something to run on, they would.  But we all know they don’t.  And they on know that as well.

The only one that made sense was Bloomberg.  And he was laughed off stage.

So with Russia helping Sanders, he has to drop out right? Maybe also be arrested?

Can't stop Russia from liking who they like. Now, is there any reason to believe Sanders is working with Russia? Did he hire a campaign manager who owes debts to any Russian oligarchs? Or a security advisor who likes to attend banquets with Putin? Or a foreign relations advisor that accepted a medal from Putin? Anything like that? No?  Probably no need to worry, then.

No worries, his wife already taught him how to dodge an FBI investigation.
