discuss popcorn-eatinggif then look up "raging narcissist" and see if there's a picture of him...


Former President Barack Obama told Nevada voters Monday that they should not give President Trump credit for the current state of the economy and said they should "remember who started it."


Obama told Nevadans that they should discount talk of "economic miracles" that Trump has repeatedly touted, including a 3.7 percent unemployment rate and a strong economy ahead of the midterm elections in two weeks.


"By the time I left office, wages were rising, uninsurance rate was falling, poverty was falling, and that's what I handed off to the next guy," Obama said. "So when you hear all this talk about 'economic miracles' right now — remember who started it."


"Unlike some, I actually try to state facts. I believe in facts," Obama said while discussing the GOP tax law. "I believe in a fact-based reality and a fact-based politics. I don't believe in just making stuff up."

gotta love him taking credit when his entire team was predicting immediate global recession and market failure:

"Under Trump, I would expect a protracted recession to begin within 18 months. The damage would be felt far beyond the United States." Obama chief economist Larry Summers, June 2016.

"I have never seen an election in which the markets have so strong of a view as to what was good and bad about the outcome. And what you saw was the markets rallying yesterday because of the FBI thing on Sunday. And the reason I mention this particularly is if the likely event happens and if Trump wins you will see a market crash of historic proportions, I think…The markets are terrified of him." Steve Rattner, Obama Car Czar, October, 2016.

"If Trump wins we should expect a big markdown in expected future earnings for a wide range of stocks — and a likely crash in the broader market (if Trump becomes president)." Eric Zitzewitz, Obama chief economist at the IMF, November 2016.

...now the narrative is that Obama's policies, which Trump is systematically dismantling, were the reason for the booming economy :)

Here in Vegas both Obama and Uncle Joe stumped last week.
Obama drew a crowd of about 4000 at UNLV while Uncle Joe
drew 162 at a union hall.

By constrast Trump had a crowd of about 8500 at an airport
in Elko. Elko has a population of 20,400 while Vegas has 648,224.

You do the math.

"Go get retrained, because YOUR JOBS ARE NOT COMING BACK"
"How is Trump going to create all those jobs? What's he have, a magic wand"?

They wanted to put coal miners out of business, not bring back their jobs

He prevented pipeline jobs that are now being created

He thought he and big government were the solution, we're seeing once again how fucking wrong they are

He espoused trade deals that KILLED JOBS

Regulations and taxes DO NOT CREATE JOBS, anyone who doesn't know this by now is one stupid fuck

The "least prepared man in the room" is one stupid / clueless muthufucker (no disrespect to mutherfuckers intended)

And the criminal corrupt colluding always lying democratic media spreads his bullshit as instructed

All of this enabled by the fucking idiots of this world

The first 6 months of Trumps term were dedicated to undoing EVERYTHING that Obama did - the only thing that wasn't undone was Obamacare and that's because of McCain - Trump inherited better times that Obama but it doesn't take a decade to get over a recession
