Re: The Official "Making America Great Again" Thread
This is a good day to reflect upon how embarrassing it is to be a citizen of this country when Donald Trump is President of the United States.
Well, I believe that I must tell the truth
And say things as they really are
But if I told the truth and nothing but the truth
Could I ever be a star?

Re: The Official "Making America Great Again" Thread
You are incorrect. There is not mathematical evidence that Trump has had a positive impact on the economy. That is the point. If you care to debate that point by point submit your "clear mathematical evidence" and I will debunk it. It's not there.GannonFan wrote:Agreed, there are plenty of reasons to be abhorred of Trump, but to rail time and time again that Trump hasn't had a positive impact on the economy over and above that of his predecessor, in spite of clear mathematical evidence supporting that, is starting to be the new definition of insanity. JSO was a levelheaded poster years ago, but the years and the Trump presidency have not been good to him, unfortunately.Ibanez wrote:I might start blocking JSO. I'm no fan of Trump by any means but I am able to give the man a fair shake and credit when it's due (like USMCA...get it done CONGRESS!!!!).
John, you're a broken record. Please - for your own mental health - focus on what matters like family and fishing.
Your task is to demonstrate that there is a cause and effect relationship between Trump being President and the economy being better than it otherwise would have been. Go for it.

Re: The Official "Making America Great Again" Thread
What you don't get is that nobody comes here to change anybody's mind. Everybody here understands that arguing about stuff like gun control and election outcomes is an just academic exercise -this is a great place to vent. Nobody with a lick of sense believes that its possible to confiscate 300,000,000 guns even if you emptied every donut shop in the country and put the cops to work full time doing nothing but collecting guns. Likewise electronic voting - only here, like the Electoral College, to ensure that the establishment has the last word.Ivytalk wrote:Why spend hours of your time digging up stuff on the Internet in a vain effort to convince maybe 20 guys on a political message board of the rightness of your cause? That’s what I just don’t get. He’d do better to get out on the hustings of Loozianna and preach it to the coon-ass masses.
Hell, I'm even coming around to the idea that another term of trump could be acceptable as long as he keeps making a laughingstock out of the Republicans and the FBI while he's at it.
You matter. Unless you multiply yourself by c squared. Then you energy.

Here you go John. Lots of math and charts.

I'll look to see if I can find a video where the charts aren't off screen.
Shouldn't be too hard, as this was a daily briefing.

JSO, we are 3 years into his presidency.
