Politics "Black unemployment" and other Trump talking points that are false

[CupWizier]

Congrats.
In Trumps first two years he's lowered the black & hispanic unemployment rate by 1% each.
While Obama lowered it by 6.8% and 4.9% over his term.

Frankly I'm just happy it hasn't gone up in nearly 2 years.
Yes it's at a low point. But it's a bit of fake news/politician talk to claim Trump is the reason why it's so low.
For anyone to do this shows they're just following that company line.

Anything positive, Trump takes credit, but if it is negative he blames Obama. Such a classless act from such a fragile ego.

Okay...here is where I have to remind you how often obummer did the same thing. This is a very common tactic used by setting Presidents for one hundred and fifty years.

Show some proof. It is all over the place with the twitter clown along with his average of 16 lies daily since June. He only averaged about 9 daily before that.

Bull shit. And stop with this sorry ass debate tactic. It's TIRED.

ESPECIALLY when there was NOTHING Bush did that Obama could take credit for.

Politics. 101
New administration comes in for the former opposition party.
Anything positive = New administration is the reason.
Anything negative = Former administration is the reason.

This is the exact reason why Millennials tune this shit out.
Our parents taught us we didn't have to listen to this nonsense if we didn't want to.
Most of us choose not to.

The lies are up because the noose they wanted around Obama's neck is tightening around their own president's lack thereof.

To be fair. Bush was the worst president we've had in my lifetime.
As you said, Bush did nothing Obama could take credit for.

Meh.

Obama didn't do that. He told us the truth about why the economy was the way it was.

You do realize I was responding to:

obummer did the same thing. This is a very common tactic used by setting Presidents for one hundred and fifty years.

Which isn't true. And I'm simultaneously slapping the SHIT out of the weak "they did it too" debate tactic.

 

[H.C.]

Meh.

Obama didn't do that. He told us the truth about why the economy was the way it was.

He didn't have a chance.
The economy was so ass nothing to take credit for.

I do remember hearing him say in his speeches.
'The economy will get worse before it gets better. It will take longer than any of us would like. It will take years, not months.'
Credit to him, for not passing the buck and blaming the previous administration.(at least this is what I remember)

The real story here is that black unemployment reached it's all-time historic high of 16.8 in March 2010.

So there's a solid part of Obama 's legacy that will likely never be erased.

 

[Hoopguru]

Both sides that preach tolerance are the least tolerant of all!
What a joke...Dem's & Repub's cant show by example any kind of compromise or class.
They both have taken the low road but both preachy they ARE the high road. Hypocrites to the max!

 

[H.C.]

Sometimes I'm really happy there is an ignore feature on this site.
Less I might've been tempted to legitimize one of the posters on this forum who sees minorities as less than.

 

[MARIS61]

Well, this is just 100% incorrect.

Oh, the difference between you and Julius is I trust Julius.

I posted absolute proof from the US Bureau of Labor, the ONLY credible organization that keeps records on this.

Julius's edited version proves the same thing, so I guess you either believe us both or deny reality again.

Thanks for again proving you aren't interested in the truth.

La Pine: It's a great hiding place when you lack the skills or evidence to debate.

FTFY.

From the early 1800s, each administrative change has blamed the past one, or taken credit for anything positive.

D, my man, it is not a "debate tactic" as you have pointed out, rather showing a historical relevance.

Do you understand how graphs are used? Before the Obama administration unemployment was on the rise for several years and as expected it continued to rise thanks to many of Bush's policies. On the other hand, unemployment rate had been plummeting for years under Obama and Trump inherited that trend and as expected it continued.

Yeah, I have a hard time finding any worth of Ws record as well, but here is what cracked me up, when some positive numbers started to come out during President Trumps tenure, the talkingg heads did give credit to obummer...now thats a switch.

Lol it's laughable that you s won't look at those links.

And it's a tactic you don't seem to know you're using, but a debate tactic it is nonetheless. You're trying to deflect the idiocy of this president by saying "he did it too". s

It's a tired ass tactic that doesn't allow you to own your president's shit. The president that will someday soon be either impeached or will resign in disgrace like Nixon.

I do not agree with you, I think he will go down as someone like TDR, another populist the was controversial.

Trump hasn't done one thing except pass tax cuts which adds to deficit spending which does absolutely nothing for the economy. Corporate

Please point to ONE thing that he's done.

I'll wait while you Google it because you can't tout it off the top of your head.

Corporate profits are up while wages are DOWN....

FDR????????????? WOW.....

TRUMP IS NOT A POPULIST.....

You truly don't have a clue of who FDR was If you think that.

FDR called out the "economic royalists" to "hate" him.

He didn't believe in the "free market" at all.

 

[Lanny]

You keep posting for assistance in explaining things which are common knowledge or easily googled by literally anyone. This suggests a severe learning disability which I am unequipped to help you with.

A professional tutor can identify your issue, and if you have sufficient intelligence, he may be able to teach you these basic elementary school-level skills.

I'm the one with two tough degrees not you.

You made an assertion and I asked you to back it up. You repeatedly failed that simple task and now you bob and weave much like a weasel trying to avoid work, aka research. Get help learning how to do elementary research. You can progress from there.

I hold out little hope since you seem totally incapable of doing any research 'cause you always come up with goofy conclusions and no explanation of how you got there.

Therefor, do not try any higher education, that is if you have a GED.

Ahh, excuse me, but I referenced TDR. You know, started a war with spain, helped create Panama so he could get access to the canal zone, speak softly and carry a big stick....

Just one thing? Okay, my favorite. He denied hillery of the Presidency.

He also singlehandedly got us out of the calamity that Hoover got us into...
That sure was a GREAT depression!

You know, that ol’ chestnut...

 

[jlprk]

This is a good resource, not only showing Trump's high school-level phrasings with the heads of Mexico and Australia, but the reader also learns about other news events.

By "resource" I mean that you probably won't read the whole thing, but you'll still learn about other news events he mentions, just by reading pieces. Note the helpful annotations in the right column.

...not just the UE rate, but the economy in general has been on the upswing for several years now and Trump still tries to take credit for that too.

...the so called "tax break" was largely targeted toward the very rich and toward big business...and when the fallout from the tariffs start driving consumer prices up, it will result in a wash at best, for the middle class.

Trump is a fart in the wind. That's because he is full of hot air.

You are still speaking about Franklin, while my reference was towards Teddy. Both are fascinating in their own way.
