Somebody liked Obama, he had higher percent stock market gains over the start of his term than Trump does now.

Not arguing that point. But you are ignoring my point. That the policies of DJT are markedly different than BHO's. HRC's would be similar to BHO's. The market is up remarkably once we changed from BHO to DJT. Whatever the market did or did not do during Monroe's presidency or Taft's presidency or Cleveland's presidencies does not change the fact that the change from BHO to DJT has resulted in an up market. You can argue that it is just a coincidence; I think that is disingenuous.

But how did the market do under BHO?

Answer that, and I think we can find out where the real disingenuity lies...

Doesn't matter. When there's a market crash or a recession, and odds are high there will be one in the next three years, the Branch Trumpidian Cult will blame Obama (if they don't blame Clinton).
Donald Trump is a one-term LOSER

Somebody made a point about how insane
Libs are. They say every day that Trump is
Hitler, or worse than Hitler, yet they want
to take all our guns away so we'll be at
Hitler's mercy. Insanity.

It did not result in an up market, the up market continued from the previous presidency, and the market is up less than it was both during the first part of Obama's first term and of his second.

Now, for the first time in 7 years, the jobs market shrank.

As for different policies, he has hardly been able to put anything in place.

That's so odd because usually during hurricanes
like we just had, they cause jobs to surge. No,
wait, I might have that backwards. LOLOL
