LOL, I am not the one who brought up Nasdaq brainiac, it was the original post. I just don't know where those numbers came from.

And since you apparently missed the many times I said it ... I couldn't stand Bill Clinton..... Which was part of the point that flew right over your head.
You prove with every post how big of a clown you are.

Nasdaq close Friday at 18,124. Closed on 1/20/21 as 13,294. Where does the above come from? Are any of the numbers right?

Now also add in the Dow numbers. Job Growth Numbers. Unemployment numbers. GDP numbers. And the rest of the indicators that one needs to actually evaluate the current economy rather than to spin it in one direction.

Basically all that chart says is that inflation has caused prices to go up. Yes, we all know that.

The reality is that who the president is never has much effect on the economy anyway, its just the stupid game we play. Economy is driven by economic cycles and the ingenuity and resilience of the American businessman within the system we have created over the last 100 years. Otherwise please explain what Bill Clinton did to make the economy so good while he was president. He even balanced the budget, something Trump didn't come close to doing.

Even then what the president does do has a year or two lag before it even has much effect. So using a lagging indicator would be more accurate.

Only in a dummycrats eyes
 
You try to come across as some whiz bang economist giving us all lessons on how the economy works but this writing of yours is utter BULL S**T. Let's start with the immediacy of the Biden inaugural. On day one, he takes over an economy with a 1.4 inflation rate. In just three months, in April, Biden has TRIPLED that rate to 4.2. And that was just the beginning. What was that, just a freakin coincidence? Lagging indicator my a**. And presidents don't have much of an effect on the economy? So I guess all that money Biden and the dems couldn't wait to start spending had nothing to do with it. And more spending on top of that. Even Larry Summers, democrat and former treasury secretary put out the inflation warning flags about this spending. Even the current treasury secretary proved her idiocy with her "inflation is transitory" mantra. The polls are very clear that most Americans blame Biden for inflation, even if you can't or won't.

And what did Bill Clinton do to make the economy so good and even balance the budget? You must think conservatives or republicans here are really stupid to not know the obvious answer. He signed his name to something orchestrated by Newt Gingrich and the first republican house in 40 years. But you just give ALL the credit to Bill Clinton, conveniently forgetting the rest of the story and then make the utterly stupid comparison to Trump not doing that when Obama and Biden haven't done it either. So the big part of Bill Clinton economic success goes to a republican house.

And finally your economic numbers at the top. I'm confused why you even post them if the president has little effect on the economy. On the Dow, it has grown about 25% (as of last week) since Biden took over. That's pretty good but small potatoes to the 56% growth under Trump.
The job growth numbers are BS when most of them are jobs returning after losing them in the Pandemic, not new jobs.
Didn't Trump have very good unemployment numbers including record unemployment for minorities.

But thanks for letting us all know that presidential policies have little effect on the economy. Who knew.
Go read what real economists say about the economy. Not the uber-partisan websites you appear to get most of your information from......there are plenty of economists out there who can explain to you what caused inflation and who aren't playing politics. Read 10 different guys so you get a good cross section of opinions. You won't do it.....because you will discover your wrong about most all of this....but you might actually learn something. Virtually all of them site factors that where essentially out of Biden or Trumps control (other than possibly the stimulus efforts in 2020). Economists have been warning us about the coming tight labor market for 20 years.......but it was super charged by the "great resignation" that happened along with Covid.

Or would you rather look at polls from people who have no idea what GDP even is?

The real problem is that all you want to do is pump up Trump and bash Biden......your not interested in the truth. Which really makes this whole discussion a waste of time.

And in case you didn't realize it, the stock market went up more under Obama than it did under Trump. The difference is that Obama didn't crow about it every five minutes like the orange man did. A tactic Trump constantly uses to sway the week minded. Its just sad that it works.
 
"A boom" LMAO. Just not factual. I bet the unemployment rate is way up because people have to get more jobs because everything is so expensive. Also, only the Libtards count more employment by adding millions of undocumented people as well as "more jobs" because people went back to work after Covid. Nice try buddy.
It’s a boom this isn’t up for debate nickel nuts
 
He and Undocumented sh*t both have their heads up there arses. Typical libs.
You another loser that can’t compete in a boom?



Voters are catching on.. stay away from the wolves manipulating you. Focus on facts, we are dominating. You prefer 2020?? lol, clown show in this board
 
Can you show some opinion polls on the economy for the rest of us? I do not care what STUPID people claim(liberals) What does AMERICA think? (BTW..I already know the answer...just want to educate you AGAIN)
Opinion polls on the economy? lol, snowflakes like you whine when they don’t like the politics. We have hard data and facts to analyze economic health. Currently we are in a boom. It won’t last forever, enjoy it while it lasts. Another 2020 could be right around the corner.
 
And how much more are you paying for groceries, gas, utilities, etc. etc. etc. You are an idiot.
Undocumented-sh*t strikes again.
Isn't it past your bedtime? You post like an 11 year old who got his feelings hurt.
 
I did not see where he posted ANTHING that was not accuarte...but hey...snowflake little libbies NEVER do well with facts
And he comes back with the typical brain dead lib response. Insult, deflect, deny and project is their game plan. You are right, smack them in the face with facts and they scatter like sprayed roaches.
 
The reality is......its not the economy anymore. Trump had a good economy and never had a favorability rating of 50% or higher and lost the election. Economy is good now and Biden's approval ratings are near record lows.

Not that the economy doesn't matter at all, but its not the bell weather it used to be. Other factors have become more important.

the economy sucked in 2020 the year of the election. worst since the great depression. and he had to have negative real rates to even get 1.5% gdp growth. thats why he got so publicly angry at the fed when they hiked to 3%(when he asked for negative rates like europe had, not fair, not fair).... guy is a raging derranged fiscal liberal.

I don't hold Covid economics against Trump.......or the Covid induced inflation against Biden.

But nobody seems to give a shit about the truth these days.

Well than you don’t care who the president is. The inflation is from the massive money printing in 2020 and to a lesser degree 2021. It’s all on the countries response to a cold virus. The goals for the different participants varied but the results the same. To buy and election and the advance the ball towards a more socialist society.
 



America is crushing the rest of the world, this is what America first looks like my little sheep.

When you say "response to a cold virus" you lose any remaining credibility that you had.

So the vast majority of the American population under economic duress and financial hardship are to be ignored?
Just wondering, are you under economic duress or financial hardship personally? Your family, neighbors, friends?

I don't know anybody like that....at least with those who actually want to work. This "vast majority" must live in states other than Tennessee or Florida because I know tons of people in both places and they have pretty much all been doing pretty well since the 2008 financial crisis. Anybody who wants to work can find work. The only real problem we have with our business is finding enough people to satisfy the demand we have to get work done.

Yes, all of the above, myself, family, friends, neighbors all under economic duress and financial hardship during Biden's presidency. None of the above had issues during Trump's presidency. In fact, we all blossomed while Trump was in office, as did most people. All of the above are middle aged, middle class, home owners with mortgages (homes bought years ago before covid run up appreciation) hard working folks raising families with young kids. This category of folks had taxes reduced by Trump and cost of living in check. This group of folks always gets screwed over by Democrats by being forced to pay for the free loaders while the rich are always rich regardless of who the President is or which party controls Congress and are oblivious to economic duress and financial hardships. I'm an independent that votes on maximizing take home pay and faith in God, Jesus, Holy Spirit so thus far I've voted Republican because they're the ones more likely to increase my take home pay and less likely to kill babies.
