    "Class warfare" is damaging the people for the gains of the rich. Opposition to that is a justified resistance. Why do you side with the greedy rich?

    The Dow under Obama/Trump:

    Obama: 8,000 -----> 18,322

    Trump: 18,322 ---> 26,000 (Today)

    So in a little over 1 year, the Dow under Trump has advanced roughly 75% of what the Dow advanced 8 years under Obama. That's a demonstrable fact.

    Anyone notice how the collectivist hive is trying to take credit for the success of the pro-growth agenda and policies they oppose? :lol:

    Reality: Obama had the fourth worst economic record in history.

    Denying he had the fourth worst economic record just makes you look delusional.

    PS. Obama never presided over a single year of 3% GDP growth, either.

    Herbert Hoover says "Thanks Obama!"

    My mistake. I thought it was Trump (not Obama) who pushed through the tax reform that got the market really excited.

    I'm having a hard time finding anything Obama did in his lame duck last year to excite anything. Maybe you can provide some link(s) to help. Thanks.

    I say the same thing when I wake up every morning. If not for obama's utter failures, Trump wouldn't be here making America great again.

    Yeah, who knew that reversing the last guy's regulations would stimulate the economy. Funny how that stock market, which Trump was supposed to crash and would have received full credit for it if it had, skyrocketed as soon as Trump beat Hillary. 6,000 in one year, something obama can't say.

    Trump had no effect on the economy in 2017. No president does in their first year.
    yea, Obama only doubled in to record highs, after having the worst recession in 80 years, and with a completely obstructionist republican congress.

    The Dow recovered to the pre financial crisis level and then increased by ~ 30% (not adjusted for inflation) in ~ 7 years.

    So what's the theory behind these claims that if the stock market goes up it must be because of Obama, but if it goes down it must be because of Trump?
