John McCain said it in September 2008 From 2008 to 2009 the GDP dropped from $14,743.3 billion to $14,431.8 billion. From 2018 to 2019 the GDP rose from $20,235.9 billion to $21,288.9 billion As long as the GDP is going up you can get away with saying the "fundamental" are strong. |

Quit bringing logic to the conversation. Obviously people hear just want to make it a political debate. At my age a Life In Prison sentence is not much of a detrrent. |

I am apolitical so I don't care about motivations, I just want to see my taxes go down and paychecks go up. At my age a Life In Prison sentence is not much of a detrrent. |

Gotta agree. I can see DJT cutting payroll taxes, which is a euphemism for Social Security tax, as it is a giveaway to all Americans, and when the populace decides who to vote for, they often remember the last person who gave them it. I am totally against a cut in the social security tax. The system is already woefully underfunded. I would be for raising both the rate and the maximum. It would be the right thing to do, but it certainly won't help someone get elected. |

Not a ton to worry about at the moment. Record low unemployment. Calling Trump a white supremacist did not work so now the libs will scream RECESSION for a few weeks until that doesn't work. The President is a fink. |
