The Inevitable New The Inevitable Trump Mocking Thread

Nice try, your guy is in deep, financially and otherwise . . . and you see that lack of enthusiasm on Obamas part there as equivalent to Trump's cozying up to Kim and Putin? Your loyalty may be blinding you to reality.

You mean "The National Mistake"? The "Fleecing of America"? The "Big Con Job"? The "National Embarrassment"? I understand that most people are accustom to having some trust in their elected leaders and some what meaning what they say, but we all learned a lesson this time. The ideas, the promises all sounded good in principle, but the one purporting such notions doesn't have the scruples to have any principles. Americans got conned, we elected "The Rainmaker" . . . but this time there will be no happy ending or mending of his ways.
 
Note to self: you may not be able to decrease the trade deficit with a strong dollar, trade war and rising interest rates. Just a thought...

Exactly, but why are you being so hard on Hillary?
She's been through enough.

Apparently you have bought into the "Big Con Job"....
You are a minion of the far left and a victim of their fear campaign...hook line and sinker.
Trump is a buffoon, but the sky is not falling, the economy is booming, and the Supreme Court is getting a great justice in a couple of weeks.

Speaking of thoughts...how's the economy and unemployment doing these days?

Great... as it has been for the last 4-6 years.

But if you look closely, you'll note a few warning signs.

Check private sector jobs in August.

Check job growth over last 4 years. Has actually decreased. We are closing in on "full employment" which causes some things in an economy.

Check trade deficit.

Check China off-book loan numbers.

Check emerging markets, esp Turkey, Argentina, Venezuela.

Check tariffs.

Check rents in Portland, Seattle, NYC and a few other metros.

As I've mentioned before, the juice from the tax cuts will keep things amped for a bit longer - who knows exactly how long - but when the drop comes it will be worse.

Things that cannot simultaneously be true: We cannot raise interests rates/have strong dollar and cut imports/raise exports, especially with increased tariffs. Cannot happen.

We also can't get near full employment, see creeping up of wages and keep low interest rates, unless we like inflation.

So... reap while you can, would be my suggestion. We're 6 - 12 months off, but at some point, the buzz ends.

I’m sorry that basic collegiate or post graduate degree levels of basic intelligence and prose are consistedly ‘confusing’ to you. I don’t mean to suggest your education or intelligence levels are below such hurdles, but your responses suggest otherwise.

I’m unwilling when out of character to dumb down my posts to meet your stated level of comprehension. I truly believe you personally understand precisely my point of view and the level of use of prose to articulate it. I have nothing to offer the true nincompoops than callously argue with you through their coarse language and coarse images to react to my level of discourse.

I’m neither a statesman nor speechwriter, but when I am out of character, I choose to use my actual level of English language knowledge and usage therein. So your suggestion I am trying to complicate issues is unfounded. At least, I’m subconsciously trying to leave the true nincompoops here well beyond the rear view mirrors.

You are a LIAR.....

That is your character ......You have no Collegiate/post graduate resume.

You're a borderline high school graduate who fantasizes immensely while
supporting a Criminal Enterprise AKA the Democratic Party....

The three cities you cite are shitholes...

The data you cite is shit....

Friedhands you're full of Shit.....
 
Rents are still up in >50% of US cities y/y, but the softening is increasing... By itself, not a concern, but something to keep an eye on.

Happy New Year, friends and Nazis.

Rents on the west coast have been high for years, nothing new.
Perhaps the local governments should do something besides raising minimum wage for part time workers.
Stream lining building permits would make a huge difference in the communities you've mentioned
While we didn't have "full employment" under Obama , we did have "creeping up of wages" along with low interest rates and little inflation.
Reap while I can?
You're not reaping while you can?
Sounds like you're hoping for inflation, rising unemployment and higher interest rates... why?

Huh? None of what you say is what I posted. Nothing at all.

Rents in the cities above are falling: Seattle's is falling in large part because they drastically streamlined the process to allow a building boom. Rents are down there due to supply and demand - they have increased supply a ton. Do you not know how that works? You think rents will go up if we build more? Uh... no.
The point is falling rents "can" be an early indicator of slowdown. Taken by themselves they are not a big deal, but something to watch as a trend is building (started in NYC about a year ago.)
Q3 growth is likely very strong. (see link)
I am not at all hoping for inflation, rising unemployment and higher interest rates.

This is the reality, however: We are in a very long recovery at this point. The tax break was designed to continue it, but it's an artificial bump (as were much of the bumps under Obama to get us out of the recession.) The question will be: how much have the bumps (and added debt) distorted the normal cycle. We'll see. But folks who think this goes on forever might be surprised. (Import taxes - tariffs - could take some of the air out, however, as they are taxes on consumers that to an extent offset the tax cuts, but hit a different segment of the demo.

We shall see, but I doubt growth continues past 2020 in almost any scenario. Big question is how big the slowdown is.

My bad ... I was thinking rents in California have been climbing for years...build more and the rents will come down, exactly what I was referring to when I mentioned stream lining building permits. That would be supply and demand. Falling rents could also be the inability or the refusal to pay obscene monthly rents. Seattle instituted a $15.00 an hour minimum wage and that back fired miserably....
The economy, much like the weather is cyclical. We don't have a calamity like Freddie and Fannie looming in the shadows.
You are right, we shall see.
Some folks see what they want...I don't see the sky falling anytime soon.
