*Suspending the federal debt ceiling and funding the government for three months in Hurricane Harvey aid package*

Can you say you agree with all of those? Trump and I do.

Great... now show me the eccie posts where you defended Trump on each of those issues.

That is not what I said is it? You said I disagreed with everything he did. If you look at those items you will see they are pretty much typical liberal issues, so I bet you are not in agreement with most of them.

One could say I agreed with all of them in this thread LOL!

Thanks for making my point. So you can't find a single eccie post where you defended Trump on 7 issues you claim to care about. You are reflexively anti-Trump, even when he tries to resolve problems you say you want to fix. You'd rather wait for a dimotard to garner all the credit. You won't grudgingly give him a "win" on anything.

Where did you cut and paste that list from, anyway?

There is no denying I am anti-Trump. The things bad about him outweigh the good about him in my opinion. That is not the point. Instead of wanting proof I supported it you should be looking for where I was against it. Have you posted about everything you agree or disagree with him on? I never said I cared about them I just said I agree with him on them.I just listed 7 wins. The same could be said of you and Obama or Hillary can you find where you supported either of them?

As for where my list come from, if you are as smart as you claim you could find it in about 3 seconds.

By the way I noticed your Syntax has changed in the last week. Is someone editing your post? The "holier-than-thou" smirk does not look good on you.

Example do you think the unemployment was 9.4 when Trump took over? Do you think the deficit was 936 billion in 2016? You are always trying to scam someone LOL! Those numbers reflect what Obama and Trump were handed. Lets see what Trumps final numbers look like.

I'm not pro-Trump. I'm anti-anti-Trump hysteria-mongering. If you weren't so fucking blind you would notice I just posted 5 times in this thread citing examples of how/where Trump's protectionist tariffs are backfiring on him.

I don't care enough to look. I just wanted you to admit it's not your list. You just undermined whatever point you were trying to make with it.

Is this thread about religion? No. And if you mean "smarter-than-thou" you're wrong again. I can't be expected to hide the fact that you know next to nothing about economics. But I'm smart enough to know what I don't know. There are certain niches where your knowledge and experience vastly exceed mine. Homosexuality, for instance. Or how to empty an overflowing port-o-john in a trailer park. I am humble and honest enough to defer to you in such areas.

I did not say you have never, I asked if you posted about everything he done good or bad. A usual you did not give a direct reply

Again you are diverting what it was about. You were not trying to do anything beside act like you are superior. Yes I did google search to find things I agreed with him on. I guess you follow him 24-7 I only comment on a few of the issues. And remember how all the news is fake, where else would I learn about what all he has done.

I agreed with you about the economic issue and you say I know nothing. What does that make you? And if being smart means I have to defend myself by calling folks gay then I would rather be dumb LOL. I live in a prominent area of the country and you live in a poverty stricken area. There is only 30 trailer parks here most of them are RV's and rows of them in your area like 341 all mobile homes listed in your town LOL Maybe you should not be so lazy when researching things

Haven't heard. I think Haiti should file suit against them though.

This too boosted the economy.

The question is what comes next. Trade wars could nuke the good he's done so far. The federal debt is another concern. Trump's business experience taught him he could go deep into debt and come out just fine as long as he stiffed his bondholders and banks. The trillion dollar federal budget deficit he's planning for 2019 is not a good sign. To be fair, with these huge deficits he's planning, he's continuing a trend started by his predecessors, George W. Bush and Barrack Obama. They were as guilty as he is.

Btw, don't expect him to make any significant cuts to entitlements. He has already said he won't. Instead expect entitlements and subsidies to go up.

GDP growth in Venzuela was pretty good for the first 15 years under Chavez before it cratered. Trump won't repeat this, because he's not as crazy as Chavez and because he won't be in office as long. But two quarters, or two years of excellent GDP growth do not make a legacy. Hopefully he'll abandon his trade wars and pivot like Bill Clinton and balance the budget later on. Don't hold your breath though.

Did not abandon his trade war....didn't come close to balancing the budget. Unless 8 trillion more debt in 4 years is now considered good by Trump lovers!

Poofter is really jacked up today. Spamming the forum with old threads. Why would a senior citizen waste his time.

Some bets and shit talking do not age to well now do they bambam, I suspect your "Trump will be reinstated as President" will be revisited at some point.

But I do understand how you and lusty would not want to revisit this nonsense you two posted

As far as blowing out the deficit, Biden, Pelosi and Schumer are making Ryan, McConnell and Trump look like pikers, during the two years they controlled our federal government. Biden et al added $1.9 trillion to the national debt with the American Rescue Plan, while Larry Summers, other economists, and Republican leaders were telling them it was nuts. And so what have we got now? High inflation in goods and services that's outrunning inflation in wages. The working man is losing ground. If not for Sinema and Manchin we'd be even more fucked.

But yes, you can't blame inflation entirely on the American Rescue Plan. It was just one of a number of factors. Like supply chain glitches and higher prices caused by the tariffs. Tariffs that Biden could remove with a stroke of his pen. But he hasn't, at least yet.
