So I have tried to get either of you two to make that bet three years instead of one and even that is not long term but is suffice to win your money should you choose to bet it. .

I bet you 3yrs. GDP will average 3% or over in each year. We square up after each year. Pretty simple.

By not taking the bet, you admit those same policies you whine about will succeed. You think we will reach 3%+ GDP growth this year for the time since 2005!

So this thread is about how nothing you say matters. Everyone knows you are a moronic buffoon who is....

ALL HAT, NO CATTLE!

BIGGEST FRAUD ON ECCIE!

How did your prediction work out

Your the only poster here who can fit a square peg in your round hole.

Have you two ever glanced back and admitted how far off you were?

As usual you were wrong....turns out we all had time to wait 3 years and see how wrong you were

I've said from the start that we may see a bump but it will not last. So three years or are you to chicken?

Hmmmmmm....

LustyLad was spot on. Unemployment in 2019 and the first part of 2020 reached the lowest levels since 1969. And median household income, after stagnating since the Clinton administration, popped way up. The middle class was finally starting to make up lost ground.

Then COVID hit.

Contrary to the opinion of some, Trump did not cause the pandemic.

And did you bet against the Trump economy? Hell no. You piled into energy shares and made a bundle, on paper at least.

Bambino would have lost the bet he proposed. Trump only hit 3% once after predicting 4, 5 and 6% GDP growth.

The Trump economy was just an extension of the Obama economy. The eccie repubtards won't except the facts. The data is the data.

tell us again why Obama's handling of the economy was so great? like FDR if he'd just done nothing and let it recover on its own it would have done so much faster. like FDR he thought you could "stimulus" your way out of it. wrong. the only thing that really ended the Great Depression was WWII.


are you finally ready in this 4 year old bumped thread to take my bet? you know the bet .. you post an article praising Obama's handling of the economy and i post one showing he screwed up. the bet is who runs out of articles first.


it won't be me.

Je wanted to bet Trumps GDP would be above 3% for the year. I did not.

I wanted to bet that it would not be above 3% for the next 3 years. It was not.

Please explain how I was wrong.

That is because you numb nutted Trump lovers praise Trump for the exact same numbers you flogged Obama for.

Yall are unabashed hypocrites.

And yes it was 4 years ago I was telling our self proclaimed resident forum economic expert that we may get a sugar bump out of the tax cuts but nothing more.

I can’t see what that buffoon posts, but it looks like he’s slacked up on the Qanon nonsense and is trying to be relevant.

How’d that work out for him ?

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAH

I never said you were wrong. I said LustyLad was right. Look at the title of the thread, WTF Won't Bet Against the Trump Economy. If memory serves me correctly you plunged head over heals into shares in around the 2nd quarter of 2020, when Trump was president.

And please take a look at the last four paragraphs in the original post, about employment. The article was published on February 6, 2018, about a month after the Ryan/McConnell/Trump tax cuts took effect, and before the deregulatory moves by Trump really had a chance to make a difference.

By the end of 2019, unemployment was down to 50 year lows and labor tightness pushed through to middle class incomes, which showed the first big pop upwards in many years. Now I'm not saying that was entirely due to corporate tax cuts that made the USA competitive again, and slashing red tape. But they played a part.
