    The link gave very specific accomplishments in a very specific and orderly fashion yet you say "what accomplishments?" Take your blinders off, they are in the OP link.

    I don't think it was Politicos Plurality Polls.


    Polls: Plurality of Americans Support GOP Tax Bill, Economic Confidence Soars.....

    Politico poll: Narrow support for GOP tax bill, but respondents split ~evenly on whether the plan would help 'people like them.' 80% of Americans will get a tax cut under the proposal: https://townhall.com/tipsheet/guybenson/2017/12/19/leftleaning-scorekeeper-so-the-gop-tax-bill-cuts-taxes-for80-percent-of-americans-n2424201 …

    I see this morning it made the front page of the "Drudge Report."

    Drudge Report
    Matt Drudge’s eponymous “Report” is most famous for breaking the Monica Lewinsky story, but the site rarely posts news of its own. Instead, it serves as a conservative-leaning news aggregator, pointing to articles from across the web and putting an ideologically-spun (and irresistibly clicky) headline on them. Drudge’s barebones web design has changed little over the years, serving as a sort of living memorial to the days of dial-up Internet. But the site remains massively influential (and massively read) in Washington, D.C., influencing the agenda of Beltway movers and shakers.

    But the percent of the population that is employed and middle class wages are basically stagnant. In my book Trump gets a big fat F for the year.

    More than half of ordinary Americans voted for Hillary. Now, that is something, is it not? :hiding:

    I couldn't vote or support Rubio because Rubio was one of the "Gang of Eight."

    That's why Rubio lost the support of the conservative base and it cost him winning the Republican party nomination as the Presidential candidate for 2016.

    Actually a great shinning lie.

    The double dip recessions of 1980 and 1981 - 1982 was the worst recessions since the Great Depression. It affected everyone in America from the poor to the 1%. Everyone was negatively affected. Double digit unemployment, double digit interest rates, double digit inflation.

    The recession that Obama inherited ended in June of 2009.

    FYI: TARP was signed into law by President G.W. Bush, not Senator Obama.

    Lol, demonstrable reality.

    Yes, it was bad. The recession in 2008 was much worse.
    But not the negative effects.
    Ok?

    Great Recession Dec 2007 – June 2009

    The subprime mortgage crisis led to the collapse of the United States housing bubble. Falling housing-related assets contributed to a global financial crisis, even as oil and food prices soared. The crisis led to the failure or collapse of many of the United States' largest financial institutions: Bear Stearns, Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, Lehman Brothers, Citi Bank and AIG, as well as a crisis in the automobile industry. The government responded with an unprecedented $700 billion bank bailout (TARP) and $787 billion fiscal stimulus package (Shovel ready jobs when there were no shovel ready jobs). The National Bureau of Economic Research declared the end of this recession over a year after the end date. The Dow Jones Industrial Average (Dow) finally reached its lowest point on March 9, 2009.


    1980 recession Jan–July 1980

    The NBER considers a very short recession to have occurred in 1980, followed by a short period of growth and then a deep recession. Unemployment remained relatively elevated in between recessions. The recession began as the Federal Reserve, under Paul Volcker, raised interest rates dramatically to fight the inflation of the 1970s. The early '80s are sometimes referred to as a "double-dip" or "W-shaped" recession

    1981–1982 recession July 1981 –
    Nov 1982


    The Iranian Revolution sharply increased the price of oil around the world in 1979, causing the 1979 energy crisis. This was caused by the new regime in power in Iran, which exported oil at inconsistent intervals and at a lower volume, forcing prices up. Tight monetary policy in the United States to control inflation led to another recession. The changes were made largely because of inflation carried over from the previous decade because of the 1973 oil crisis and the 1979 energy crisis.

    My 401k was cut in half. I was an insurance agent for a supplemental insurance company making straight commission. Sales tanked due to sky rocketing UE, causing my salary to be reduced by over $60,000. The value of my home dropped by 30% and I had to postpone selling and moving to North Carolina 8 years to wait for the value to come back up to 2007 levels.

    So you blame Barack Obama as a community organizer in Chicago and as a U.S. Senator who helped create the sub prime mortgage crises and the economy he inherited.
