1/3 Hispanic Citizens voted Trump... they have $$$ Sammy bets

No kidding the economy is good. Has been accelerating for the last couple years, but it didn't fit the Republican rhetoric until they could attribute to Trump rather than the black guy.

America is already great. Now Trump slaps his name on it and says it's great again. Brilliant, really. Just gotta try not to fukk up a cushy inheritance.

Looking pretty good this year. The riots at Walmarts around the country are about as enthusiastic as the ones in Portland.

I didn't say you're a racist. What I said is true. Republicans set out to brand Obama a failure regardless of facts or evidence. I guess they succeeded in some sense.

No. Dems are going to try to shape his policy and actions and hold him accountable for things he says and does. It's not the same.

**Sam Odom** · 11-25-16, 03:42 PM

we'll see about that

Seems like the dems are trying to rally support for the party by any means possible. Trump happens to be one of the easiest ways to do so.

The biggest holiday splurge in HISTORY: Sales surge 13% as stores take a record $2BILLION on Thanksgiving and hope for $3.1billion on Black Friday amid post-election spending boom

Ready, set, SPEND: Black Friday sales get underway across the country

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3969792/Black-Friday-sales-underway-stores-country.html#ixzz4R3bbEhRk

Excited shoppers have raced into stores across the country as Black Friday sales got underway, but it has been revealed more than $2billion was already spent online.

**High3rEl3m3nt** · 11-25-16, 04:13 PM

Say what you will, but Trump has created a very favorable position from a purely strategic point of view. His base loves him and will stick with him, even if he does concede on a number of policy issues--he's going to negotiate to a degree and that's not a shock to most supporters. At the same time, the dem party has suffered losses on all fronts. Their base turns off a lot of Americans in key battle ground states. If they double down and play to their base, that plays into Donald's hand as he will increase his appeal by party contrast. If they move more to the middle of the road, which would likely mean finding common ground with Trump in a number of areas, he will be able to bill himself as successful and will increase his appeal among Americans who are sick of the political divide.

My read from a purely strategic point of view.

That's nice Sammy thinks Trump has something to do with the markets and Christmas sales.
Let's talk next year when your boys in congress start messing with an already good economy.

It's almost impossible for Trump to fukk up. Obama was teeing it up for Hillary, but now Trump steps up to the tee. As long as he doesn't get us killed, it'll be a win. He's already ignoring intel briefings. Have a bad feeling another 9/11 type hits his first year. Seriously hope not.

The economy over the past 4 quarters averaged 1.5% growth, hardly anything to get excited about.

3rd quarter GDP growth was 2.9%. It's called accelerating growth. Growth was/is ramping at a sustainable pace. Not good if it got way too hot coming out of the recession. Slow and steady acceleration wins. Economy really hitting its stride right now. No one can say Trump isn't great at getting winning inheritances.
