It's official, Trump has been Acquitted

[Kutnupe14]

I can sure think of a lot of crap but no accomplishments, at least none that were beneficial to THIS country.

You are clear that there are a great many people who thought those accomplishment were beneficial to THIS country, right?

The trend is your friend, amigo. Trumpster didn't cause an inflection point in the curve. He continued it....or perhaps was unable to stop a trend from continuing.

Works for net exports of oil. Works for unemployment (see prior graph on unemployment vs market). Works for a lot of other "Trump success stories".

It's the same as a new husband claiming his wife just gave birth to his new baby when the guy she divorced actually laid the keel, so to speak.

You forgot to mention Trump's Keynesian economic policy whereby trillion dollar deficit spending is boosting the economy.

Well, if we're going with trends, exports started trending up under Bush, so strike 2. I agree with you on deficit spending. Ball! High and outside!

The 47% that pay no taxes I'm guessing?

I'm still waiting on you to list these so called "accomplishments "

DD: You confuse your boasting of Trump with me possibly doing the same for Obama. You would be in error. I considered Obama a mediocre president for the most part. But I'll have to say he is a lot classier than your guy.

I wouldn’t know, but seems to me, they’re every bit as much of an American as you and I.

No INCOME taxes, you mean. And doesn't that 47% include seniors on soc sec who paid taxes during their lifetime, hmmm?

From Forbes: The "number" is actually 44%. In addition, "Only 11 percent of those age 25-55 do not pay federal income tax while more than 80 percent of those age 75 or older are non-payers".

What are you bothering people with those pesky details for?!?

 

[Alpo]

Because utter nonsense is starting to smell a lot like horse ****.

I'll repeat it just for those who need a couple of times reading something for it to sink in:

Only 11 percent of those age 25-55 do not pay federal income tax while more than 80 percent of those age 75 or older are non-payers.

Yep, your guy, Edward Kennedy, said "his gig line was straight and he didn't speak with a Negro dialect."

 

[Kutnupe14]

Yep, your guy, Edward Kennedy, said "his gig line was straight and he didn't speak with a Negro dialect."

I thought Harry Reid said that.

Woohoo! You beat me down by 3%! And yes, I mean INCOME taxes. And I also mean by "paid" that they do not get all (or more) of it back via EIC and the like.

And I noticed this part was left out by your subsequent post Alpo. "From Forbes: The "number" is actually 44%."

 

[DoggyDaddy]

I think you're right.

 

[Alpo]

Obviously, you've missed the point entirely.

 

[nonobaddog]

Yep, that was Harry Reid that made that observation.

 

[2A_Tom]

I thought Harry Reid said that.

It seems you are correct.

Harry Reid's comments about Barack Obama as a "light-skinned" African-American with "no Negro dialect" are hardly the first to land him in hot water.

But I do think it was Kennedy that mentioned his gig line, but I cannot prove it.

Ted's most famous line: "oops".

You wait in the car Honey, I'm going for a swim.

Think of all the political things he did that you didn't like. His administration called them accomplishments. Well, unless you disliked him for some frivolous reason, I guess.... but I doubt that's the case.

So pallets of cash, along with sanctions relief and access to world markets, and pausing but not ending nuclear weapons development with no restrictions on missile development or support of terrorism for Iran was an accomplishment?

Who knew?
