Honest Question: Do you think the executive branch is responsible ...


how are markets trend? Did you credit Clinton when the economy shot up? Did you blame Bush for 2008? Did you credit Obama for the recovery as well as the sustained uptick of the economy under Trump?

That kind of thinking sounds a lot more LEFT ... giving credit to the government for a good economy. Nothing made me cringe more than Obama taking credit for a recovering economy.

What the RIGHT would say: despite the government, the economy trended correctly. Has Trump been minimal regarding the government's interference in the markets? Less regulations are good. Less taxes are good. That said, he's started a global trade war, attacked private US companies, went after the alleged independent FED, fought to hurt private US companies like Amazon, CNN, and Disney, our debt keeps skyrocketing, spend on frivolous infrastructure like a wall, not protect US political / commercial interests abroad, etc.

Your economic view feels a lot more LEFT than to the RIGHT. Are you a closeted socialist?
