No, I want to discuss your ignorant comments from earlier. Are you done with your ignorance? Did you finally educate yourself?

So now it is simply about the number of seats and NOT the number of votes? How quickly you change your tune.

Now you have a paid for House... Steyer and Soros made sure of that. Can't wait to see how much they blow on dumbass investigations.

You still running away from the economic discussion? Just want to be sure you weren't looking to continue making a fool of yourself.

Actually the Trump economy is relatively good for a President and group of advisors who are completely clueless.
You are worried about how much may be spent on Congressional investigations, but not on the Trump family who has spent and will spend many times over what any investigation may do.

1) The economic growth is north of 3%, better than the past 8 years.
2) The stock market is slightly down this year, but better than 2001,2002, 2008, 2011... so clearly not the worst since 72
3) Inflation is tame, interest rates still historically low... which is far better than the double digit inflation of Carter couple with extremely high interest rates.

That is simply a few metrics that show it is not the worst. What metrics make you think it is the worst?

Your first point is a total lie
Your second point is also not correct
Thirdly, if inflation is tame this economy is not growing.

1) The past four quarters of GDP growth were 2.3, 2.2, 4.2 and 3.5... the average is indeed north of 3%. https://tradingeconomics.com/united-states/gdp-growth
2) Where are you getting your data? it is indeed better than each of those years at this point. https://ycharts.com/indicators/sandp_500_total_return_annual
3) seriously, you should not be talking economics. Are you saying there has been no growth in the past ten years?

You just like to cherry pick the stats you use? As it is the 4.2% quarter was a fluke due to the tax cuts, and you have yet to beat Obama's 5% quarter. Furthermore the stock market is telling us that future growth will be reduced.
The market in 2011 did far better than we are doing now. It finished up about 400 points, we are now down over 2000 points since mid January.
Growth comes with inflation, it's inevitable.

No moron. the claim was that THIS YEAR was worse than every one since 72. So I posted the past 12 months of data. So no, it is not cherry picked. You on the other hand ARE cherry picking. You point to one quarter of one year of Obama's tenure that has nothing to do with the claim? LMAO

I posted the data already. It is at the links. 2011 is currently still below where we are YTD. So no, it did not do far better. You are also looking only at point differentials. You have to account for total return, which includes dividends paid. Which is included in the data I linked to. But of course, you aren't really concerned with data are you?

Yes, growth can come with inflation. But your claim was " if inflation is tame this economy is not growing." Which is completely false.
