    Thanks for explaining and the video. I was sorta thinking this. I'm far from being mistaken for an economist, but I do recall some of this from my econ classes in college. The thing that gets me is the insane hypocrisy from Obama haters who went on month after month about how the economy was so terrible and discrediting the BLS' unemployment rate, but like magic.... Those numbers suddenly became valid on this POTUS' watch when common sense says that it's clearly a continuation from the 6 years of improving under Obama.

    Racism is a mental illness pure and simple. If skin color will alter facts so easily for you then you're definitely sick

    Still waiting to read what specific economic policies over the last year and a half from the Trump administration magically juiced the economy.

    There are those that disagree, predicting the future of the economy is VERY difficult, which is why the Fed is so secrative...

    BERNANKE: Trump's tax cuts are like 'Wile E. Coyote' and the economy's boost will fall off the cliff in 2020
    • Ben Bernanke, the former Federal Reserve chairman, said Thursday that the Trump administration's tax cuts will initially boost the economy but reach the edge of the cliff in 2020.
    • "In 2020, Wile E. Coyote is going to go off the cliff and he's going to look down, and that [stimulus] will essentially be withdrawn at that point," Bernanke said, referring to the Road Runner character.
    • Bernanke is a distinguished fellow in residence at the Brookings Institution, and served as Fed chair from 2006 to 2014.

    Thats the thing Bliss, two guys, both very smart and well versed/experienced in the markets, two very different outlooks. I dont think this is in God's hands, I believe he helps those who help themselves, which is why I encourage all that I meet to become more knowledgeable about financial markets and the underlying indices and stats that are released almost every day, far too much ignorance out there which is why according to the US department of Health and Human Services, 95.7% of Americans retire dependent on family, charity, or government.

    Lol. Right wing economic policy: Cut taxes and pray. Blessed be the dotard.

    The supreme being gave us a habitable planet for free, but the plan is to call him because we're too stupid to figure the social systems that WE created.

    Great plan.

    Wait for daddy to tell you when to pick up your toys and clean your own room.

    President Trump, per his campaign promise to give States more of their powers back, is considering abolishing the Federal criminalization of Marijuana.

    Great taxable money move if he does.

    ***********
    Trump says he might back legislation to END the federal government's marijuana ban and let states make their own pot laws
    • Licensed marijuana growers and federal prosecutors are at odds, prompting a Colorado senator to introduce a bill to push the feds back
    • Republican Corey Gardner's legislation would effectively cancel out federal drug policy's supremacy over the states
    • Asked Friday how he sees the measure, President Trump said he would be likely to support it
    The federal ban that puts marijuana on the same level as LSD and heroin has created a conflict with more than two dozen states that have legalized pot in some form, creating a two-tiered enforcement system where cannabis can be both legal and not.

    The legislation would ensure states have the right to determine the best approach to marijuana within their borders, but some U.S. restrictions would remain, including recreational sales to people under 21.

    The proposal introduced Thursday has support from members of Congress from both parties.

    'I support Senator Gardner. I know exactly what he's doing,' Trump told reporters in Washington, when asked about the legislation. 'We're looking at it. But I probably will end up supporting that, yes."

    Gardner said the legislation would ensure Washington respects the will of voters in each state, whether laws provide for legalization or prohibition.

    He said in a statement released Thursday that the federal government 'is closing its eyes and plugging its ears' to spreading legalization, but Washington should not interfere with any state's legal marijuana market."

    Trump's remarks Friday echo a promise that Gardner said he received privately from the president in April to support legislation protecting the marijuana industry in states that have legalized the drug.

    I really don't understand why Trump supporters get so triggered by his opponents who call him names or use profanity.

    Trump does it to everybody else, so why is it a big deal when people do it to him??

    TBH Trump doesn't want to get into a popularity contest with Robert DeNiro.lol

    Why wouldn't he? He hasn't had a hit film in decades.
    Even centrists are utterly disgusted he'd repeatedly say, "FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK" to our POTUS on national TV during a simple awards show.
    Unhinged liberal loon much?

    And now the tool Bill Maher had stated he WANTS America's economy to collapse and FAIL so that President Trump will be embarrassed.



    And there you have it....
    Rich limousine Liberal loonatics begging for our economy to collapse. Take a bow.

    I saw that episode of Bill Maher. His point was the only way at this point to get Trump voted out of office, excluding the Mueller investigation, is for the economy to tank.
    Right now the economy is so strong most undecideds and independents won't flip an election against Trump because for most people life is okay.

    As much as you say Maher hates Trump, he's been one of the loudest voices saying he's going to be reelected.

    It has nothing at all with Maher wanting Trump to be 'embarrassed'.

    Most political pundits make the same observations about incumbent presidents. If the economy is good at the time of reelection, they usually win a second term.

    Unless Mueller drops multiple bombshells with clear proof that Trump committed treason against the United States, it's going to be hard to peel away his base support.

    Right now the GOP rubber stamps everything Trump wants to do and never questions him publicly.

    Because Trump is special. Don't you know?

    It's the same mentality why certain folks claim to care about the plights of sexual assault victims while completely supporting and defending a president who not just admitted to, but bragged about committing sexual assault.

    It is tribalism at it's finest. Nothing else matters as long as "your side" wins.

    Embarrassed by failing and of course NOT RE-ELECTED. It goes without saying what Maher wants and inferred.

    Rush said a similar thing about Obama failing and was lambasted all over the country and media, although Limbaugh explained he hated his economic policies and didn't want him to succeed at them because they would hurt the economy.

    Maher specifically wants America to tank because he DISLIKES Trump.

    Here is what he said...

    '..Bill Maher said Friday that he is "hoping" for the bottom to fall out of the economy and for the country to enter a recession so we can "get rid of Trump."
    He said one way to do that is a "crashing economy." Maher said he is "sorry" if it hurts people, but rooting for a recession is a prevention measure to losing democracy.

    "Can I ask about the economy because this economy is going pretty well? I feel like the bottom has to fall out at some point. And by the way, I'm hoping for it. Because I think one way you get rid of Trump is a crashing economy. So, please, bring on the recession. Sorry if that hurts people, but it's either root for a recession or you lose your democracy," Maher said
