The first 100 days was very anti trump. Now more numbers are out as they extended the medias bias against trump for the first year. Over 90% of the coverage of trump on the major evening news programs is negative. I think its safe to say, we have never seen such a negative spin towards a president like this before.

I wonder what percentage of that 90% negativity deals with his thoughtful and erudite tweets that convey his 100% benevolent intent?

he tweets a lot of stupid crap, no doubt about that. but can you honestly say hes done over 90% bad job? has he done nothing good in your eyes?

Um, go back and see what I said . I never said it’s 90% bad. I never said he’s done nothing good. I asked a question (quite sarcastically).

What minuscule good he has done has easily been outweighed by the enormous amount of bad.

i realized that joe, i normally get your humor. i also know you dont really like him, but wanted to see if there was anything you thought he might have done that was good.
 
The economy is BOOMING and he has a 57% disapproval rating. That is completely unheard of and downright insane. He is wildly unpopular everywhere including Alabama where their exit polls showed a higher unfavorability rating for Trump than expected.

Given this is true, why are you surprised the media covers him negatively?

Well let's be clear: he hasn't really accomplished much. That's just a fact. On the other hand, he's only about a year into the Presidency and it's way too early to evaluate him on such a short amount of time.

Nevertheless, I like his America first approach instead of the 8-year apology tour Barry went on. I like the fact that he is trying to incentivize American made products and has attempted to nix job killing regulations. I think his pick of Gorsuch was fine as well. I liked his hiring of Spicey. Dude killed it and it was pure entertainment. Now we're stuck with crosseyed Sarah--the pride of Arcadelphia, Arkansas. Lovely.

Please explain? The economy is growing fast, markets are high, employment is low, etc. What measure are you using besides you don't like him.

The problem with your statement is unemployment was on the decline and job growth was happening before Trump took office. I won’t say he hasn’t helped, but he tries to take credit for it when most isn’t even attributable to him.

However, the markets are high because of the Republican tax bill. There is a lot of positivity surrounding Wall Street for the tax plan and a cut to the corporate tax rate. As someone who own stock and investments I’m not going to complain, but at the same time I realize the stock market isn’t the overall economy and how this will help the economy remains unclear. At the same time I am nervous about a bubble.

You speak as if those economic factors were a light switch that got flipped as opposed to indicators which have been trending for many years. This is one of the longest bull markets on record.

Remember, the unemployment numbers were fake until December but are now real

Lol

You were one of the people citing “economists” who assured EVERYONE that the election of Trump would send the stock market into a full on crash.

Yet now it’s just ho hum that the best year on record in decades is following Trumps election?

You guys are imbeciles. It literally took a 2 second search to find what I was referring to. These guys, and most everyone in the media trying to scare everyone, were SURE that a Trump win meant the markets would crumble.

Dipshit Paul Krugman wrote a near identical piece.

Like MAC and Ninja, these guys were simply idiot Trump haters that were wrong about everything.

How can I be wrong when I literally asked for a citation? That’s some impressive mental gymnastics, even by your standards.

Anyway you didn’t even answer my question, you simply moved the goalposts. Par for the course for you. Btw still waiting on my usaf charter service. Why haven’t you replied to that inquiry? At the very least I’ll settle for another logical fallacy like moving the goalposts or even an ad hominem. The silence is just deafening.

Obama never had 3% growth in eight years but all of a sudden he's responsible for it happening now.

What? No one is claiming that, they are claiming that the economy has been growing for a very long time, much longer than trump has been president or even elected. Sure it didn’t reach some magical 3% mark that you pulled out of your ass, but don’t act like this is a huge turnaround all due to trump.

You are apparently too stupid to know that the 3% mark that BTK is using is based upon recent GDP measured data

But yea- “pulled from his ass”!

Time to get out the crayons for 85 again.

No shit Sherlock. I realize and understand where the 3% came from. Why is 3% some magic number that all that all the sudden means amazing growth, but the 2% growth under obama is just garbage?

Also smart move avoiding my direct question to you, I’d avoid it too if I was made to look that stupid.

3% > 2%. Obama is the first President to never have 3% growth.

It’s hilarious that a self proclaimed genius like Ninja can’t figure how massive a difference 1% makes when talking GDP growth

I'm glad you found what you were looking for, now when did I post that?
 
Want to hear something that will blow your little minds? Trump hasn't seen 3% annual gdp growth either. Shocking I know for you two. Want to know why? Get ready for this one, it's a tough concept for you two: Trump hasn't been president for an entire year.

So you are comparing quarterly gdp to annual or even 8 year gdp.

Ready for something even more mind blowing? Obama had over 3% quarterly gdp on multiple occasions! Fake News?!? Nope. It's called the internet, check it out.

Also 85 this is the third time I'm asking you for a citation for your claim about Mac. One would almost think you are lying since you are avoiding it. But you would never lie on here....
 
On a serious note, the stock market is long overdue for a correction, and when that happens it will take gdp down with it, a lot of people will blame Trump but it's just cyclical.

Breaking news: GDP is measured on a quarterly basis. There are 4 quarters in a year. SHOCKING

The hysterical bias of most major news networks against Trump is stunning and they seem to be getting more hysterical, not less. Trump is the most independent president in 100 years. Thanks to him, half the country calls the media cabal "fake news."

Bob and 85 really showing their ignorance today... You guys are so ****ing stupid!!1!!11 Dont you know that Ninja is always right?!?!! Please dont make him bring out his crayons and second tier insults!!!111
 
He brings it on himself. The Hall of Presidents just reopened with him. He could have just done the standard "America is great" speech all the others did, but no.... He goes around the room, calling out all the other Presidents failures. I believe he calls Taft "a fatty" and Van Buren "one of the losers". When he started on a diatribe about knowing animatronics "better than anyone in the history of the world", I just walked out.
