There's the difference....Trump trashed Obama's good economy, but much more gradually, until Covid, then all at once. For his second term he trashed Biden's strong economy right out of the gate. I guess he learned something in his first term.
America (and the world) knew he was a mendacious, incompetent moron and a malignant narcissistic psychopath. Yet millions of Americans voted for him. It was the racism and bigotry with a hefty dose of stupidity thrown in.
Trump keeps telling us how bad President Biden’s policies were so terrible and his economy was in shambles blah blah blah. The facts tell a totally different story though. MAGA didn’t realize how good we had it, until now.
Usually it is said that Presidents have less impact on the stock market because there are too many outside influences that aren’t under Presidential control. Certainly can’t say that this time.
Trump Corp Tax Breaks -Fortune 500 companies found that just 20 percent of increased cashflow in 2018 was spent on increasing capital expenditures or research and development. The remaining 80 percent of cashflow went to investors through buybacks, dividends, or other asset planning adjustments. 1/2
then they jacked up prices on our goods. After going from 35% to 21% rate. They will love him again when he pushes it 15%. The squirrel in front of us takes the attention away from the Bears behind us.
I’m sure Trump or Lutnick are going to go on TV tomorrow and be like “If you turn the chart upside down, that line is actually higher than the others.”
Republicans have always been cancer to the US economy since Reagan. That’s why the “fiscal conservative” cliche was invented; to distract from the fact that for 45 years the GOP has blown up deficits and the Dems have lowered them only to have the GOP do it again.
I don't remember what social media platform it was on nor who said it but I saw someone respond to the stock trend a day or two ago with just "straight down seems bad"
We would own the world and make it a better place for everyone if it were not for the Republican Party CONSTANTLY in the way and impeding progress. I swear.
The literal definition of a conservative is to stop any kind of progress and keep the status quo. We shouldn’t be surprised. They’re incapable of recognizing that they benefit from Democratic policies. Their brains don’t allow it.
Why did Trump exempt Russia from the crippling tariffs he imposed on the rest of the world? Do you doubt that Trump stopped defending the USA and joined the criminal expansionist campaigns of Vladimir Putin? Donald Trump must be impeached, removed from office, prosecuted, convicted, and imprisoned.
Biden was the best President in my life time in a lot of ways. He totally blew a few things and I am pissed. His justice department was garbage. Economics was great.
#AltText chart of the S&P 500, showing the stock market after the 1st 100 days in office of
- Trump 1st term, approx. 2%,
- Obama 2nd term, approx. 6%
- Biden, the highest market after 100 days, approx. 10%
- Trump's 2nd term, market is down, -15.2%.
This would be even better in context: the economy that each of these Pres. were handed to begin with. Obama and Biden were rescuing failed GOP economies.
Yep, look at how high Obama and Biden's were. If we'd been smart enough to elect the person both of those Presidents endorsed (Harris) we could've had more of that instead of all this bullshit.
It's common sense if people would just look at the numbers and forecast a little.
Maybe this is what the GOP needs to wake the f**k up and start doing their constitutional duties and stand up to the president. (I know, it’s a loooong shot) 🤞🤞🤞
Indeed, and as mentioned earlier, soon enough our beloved elected officials and those charming paid pundits on TV will assure us that this is just a regular Monday, like losing your 401K because of a few questionable choices. But hey, just keep calm and carry on, right?
Just repeating "Presidents are rarely responsible for economic conditions" mantra as Trump brags he's going to stick to the plan or escalate in the background.
Shitler is the worst businessman in American history.
When you've bankrupted a casino, you officially suck at
Success. He's a Grifting Snake oil salesman and Liar.
I wanted to buy something using my 401k. But not now. I was thinking of starting a GoFundMe, asking MAGAs to fund my loss. But probably would be a waste of time.
Trump does not want to deal on tariffs. He wants to declare an economic emergency—by manufacturing one—which allows him to expand his power. Under the National Emergencies Act (NEA), the president can unlock more than 120 special statutory powers.

"Mr Mittens, no!"
#WorstPresidentEver again.
Especially close to retirement!!
Obvious market manipulation.
Check back when the sticker shock hits in a recession. It won't be close to 43%.
Economy deliberately crumbling, global relations souring, stump speeches seem insufficient.
Dems: align, litigate, work the press, reach / engage across political divides.

All makes sense. Don’t put any thought into it. He doesn’t.
FML!!!
But think about it, the goal is not to bring back mfg. it’s to hurt the U.S.
- Trump 1st term, approx. 2%,
- Obama 2nd term, approx. 6%
- Biden, the highest market after 100 days, approx. 10%
- Trump's 2nd term, market is down, -15.2%.

(Only the billionaire's are now having buyer's remorse;)
Or perhaps he does - he can claim the greatest stock market movement of any president.
It's common sense if people would just look at the numbers and forecast a little.
worse!
In the simplest of terms: It’s time for this motherfucker to walk the plank.
EVERY COUNTRY IN THE WORLD: "Trump can go fuck himself. Let's find some new trade partners."
He can gain immensely!
And according to some sources we love the pain.🫰
can we please stop winning already, sir?
please?
(tears rolling down my cheeks. I am a very big guy)
Project 2025 must be destroyed. Demolished. Wiped from the face of the earth.
"He who acts to save his country from tyranny, domestic terrorism, Project 2025, and radical right wing criminals, violates no laws.”
Blue for biden
Black for obama
Orange for the 1st term of Cheetolini
Red for his 2nd term
Where do they get the colors for Obama and Drumpf’s first term…. ?

He loves the thrill of being in control of driving global economy down and seeing the panic of other nations and American citizens
He revels in the attention and holding this power over other nations as well as US citizen
He has no fear of consequences
