  2. Yeah because it’s strong and the jobs report was good. There are still things that need to be done for common everyday Americans but all he talks about is invading Greenland and renaming the Gulf of Mexico. THIS is what those voters got us.

  3. But he definitely will… 30 days after being sworn in he will take credit for anything that is still good and blame Biden for the stuff he destroys.

  4. Golly gee is the media finally catching on that all this “invade Canada” this and “annex Greenland” that is purely a distraction from his awful tariff policies?

    We only had 4 years of this maybe at the end of another 4 they’ll catch on?

  5. He’ll just rebrand the Biden economy the Trump economy.

  6. When Canada cuts off oil exports which we rely on because of his tariffs, voters will get a crash course in buyers remorse

  7. He never had a plan for the economy – he never articulated anything specific. The people who believed him (especially after the mess he caused in Term 1) are especially stupid. Sorry!

  8. The press conference on greenland, canada and Panama was a smoke bomb to cover the explosiv conflict over h1b visa

  9. But now that he is elected he is saying he will start a couple of wars.

  10. In his defence, I also rarely speak of things I know absolutely nothing about.

  11. “Who wants these boring questions, let’s listen to Ave Maria.” (paraphrasing)

    For 45 minutes. During a goddamned town hall, meant for answering questions.

  12. Felonious trump will start taking credit for the great economy he’s inheriting from Biden, just as he took credit for the great economy he inherited from Obama, just as he has claimed credit for the wealth he inherited from his father

  13. So many people saw this coming. Trumplicans don’t care about the economy, just like others have stated on the political side of things conservatism is dead. Trumplicans don’t care about preserving anything. They don’t have any respect for peoples rights. Instead its about more narrow extremism. Christian nationalists, fascists and racists who worry more about their own personal bs. This means things like the economy that don’t enrich these interests are seen as pointless. Instead they are fake conservatives, the real RINOs pretending and saying anything they can to lead a group of people along who don’t realize they have been lead into the foxes den.

    It all reminds me of the original chicken little story. The fox tricks the farm animals using chicken little, using fearmongering the animals come to believe the only safe place is in the fox’s den. In this case you have a lot of greedy foxes, and things like the border and homosexuality is the falling sky.

  14. Maybe because the actual economy is really good at the moment? Grocery prices are high due to corporate greed and post covid recovery. I feel like we were warned about inflation being higher after covid, but people don’t research things anymore.

  15. Because it no longer suits him to do so. This has been a theme of his from the very beginning.

  16. Tragic we can’t simply have an election **do-over**.

  17. >devoting his time to griping about the Green New Deal

    What ‘Green New Deal’? – there is none. There’s never been close to one and there isn’t going to be one.

  18. I’m waiting for Fox News and Fox News Business to go full blast on how the economy is the best it’s ever been. I remember the first Trump term, Fox News would show a commercial for their programs with their hosts saying “stock market at a record high” with them doing the floss dance … it aired like every commercial break … they stopped airing it when Biden won.

  19. You all know he’ll fire up the money printers. It’s the only way to fool a population that they are doing better.

  20. Because the orange turd 💩 has zero clue what an economy is.

  21. Folks, let me tell you something – I inherited this TREMENDOUS economy, absolutely tremendous. Nobody – and I mean NOBODY – has ever seen an economy like this before. We took something good and made it GREAT. Believe me.
    The Real Story
    I gave tax cuts to my friends, the best people, the most successful people
    We’re talking about HUGE breaks for the wealthy
    Nobody does economic magic like Trump, nobody!
    Who Benefits?
    The top 1% – they’re the winners. Big corporations? They’re winning BIG TIME. And let me tell you, when the rich win, EVERYBODY wins. That’s what they don’t want you to know35.
    It’s a beautiful thing, what we did. Absolutely beautiful. Tax cuts, jobs, everything – all for my friends. And the American people? They love it. They love me. MAGA!

  22. He didn’t talk about it before, he doesn’t know what it is. He’ll destroy it tho

  23. Four years of this horrible man and these awful social media takes.

  24. Why would he, he won the election. He doesn’t give a shit about the economy, immigration, foreign wars, or anything else except enriching himself. Are people surprised by this?

  25. Well of course not – he won!

    He doesn’t have to say anything now and he can backtrack on every claim he made because that’s what politicians do.

  27. Of which he knows nothing besides tax cuts, it is better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak and remove all doubt

  28. Trump inherited a good economy then fucked it up and he is again inheriting a good economy to fuck it up in a new way.

  29. Too bad there was simply no way of knowing that he was full of shit until after the election. The information was simply NOT THERE. Like at all.

  30. Trump will take our already floundering economy and scrape every penny he can for his billionaire friends, creating an economic tragedy on the scale of the Great Depression. He is our new Herbert Hoover. I think the best course of action for the man who likes to put his name on everything is to call new homeless camps Trumptowns. It’s a historical jab and he would hate it.

  31. You voted for exactly this. None of this was a secret. He was open with just wanting the presidency to get out of jail. Oh and to enrich himself and his friends. Now you also let him have total immunity for anything he does as president. That was also known. And you voted for that. Now enjoy it.

  32. Well he’s rich and doesn’t care about us. But congrats to the working class who kept him out of prison, I guess

  33. Stopping the invasion of illegals from Mexico……buy obsessively Focusing on………Canada and Greenland.

    My conservative friends still can’t explain to me why he has a hardon for this topic all the sudden.
