You think Trump is pro-American? Interesting, when the rest of the world is laughing/scoffing at us and making plans to solve problems without us.

Why does the stock market perform so much better under Democratic presidents if they are so bad for America?

Also how did giving tax breaks to corporations prevent them from spending those funds overseas? See GM and Harley for just 2 examples
4 ups, 6y,
1 reply
You mean the incentive to not move more jobs to countries with lower corporate taxes? GM is closing plants, not moving them overseas. Harley Davidson is moving some of its production to avoid EU regulatory tariffs.

If republican presidents were great for the USA economy, stock market, and gdp growth it would show up in those measures when compared to democratic presidents.
It doesn't. The USA is WAY better off when democrats are in the whitehouse. The numbers prove that.
You are just too blind and/or unable to run the numbers yourself.

And yet they can’t attribute those statistics to political party economic policies. Republican presidents are more likely to go to war to defend ourselves and our allies than pacifist Democrat presidents. Wars in the gulf coast drove up oil prices and, thus, hurt economic growth for a time. Yes, it was inadvertently due to policy but not economic policies.

The fact still remains that lower corporate taxes give incentive for US companies to grow domestically. Democrat policies that hiked US corporation taxes to some of the highest rates in the world drove jobs overseas. Yes, corporations benefited and stocks rose while more and Americans became dependents of government welfare. Hardly something to be proud of.

You’re being blinded by statistics that seem to support your political allegiance. But you still ignore the argument that those statistics are not due to Democrat economic policies.
But go ahead and keep your head in the sand. Don’t want to risk admitting that Republican economic policies might actually be better for the economy, regardless of who’s in the White House.

When is the Republican economic policies going to help the economy?
I know just in time for the next democratic president to reap those rewards.hahahahaha

As long as they seem to support your bias. And, yes, Democrat presidents have often inherited economic growth spurred by policies of the outgoing Republican President. If you studied macro economics you’d know that the effects of policies are seen years after the policies are put in place. Take Bill Clinton for example. He inherited a growing economy spurred by the previous Republican administration. While president he jacked up taxes which triggered an economic decline due to corporations moving production overseas where taxes were lower. Bush then inherited a declining economy triggered by the Clinton administration’s economic policies.
But, of course, People like you just look at the statistics showing how great the economy was under Clinton, completely ignoring what caused it.

When will Republican economic policies help the economy? They already have and will most likely continue unless nothing gets done due to our stalemate Congress.

I have studied just the 2 half of each presidential term. 2 yrs should be ample time for their policies to take hold. Democratic presidents still come out way ahead for stock market performance and gdp growth and the economy.
You just lost all credibility when you state one party controlling house senate and whitehouse is a good thing. It isn't. Doesn't matter which party either. Study the numbers you might be able t lessen the grip that the gop has on you. Good luck

Like I said, take a course in macro economics. You might learn that the average time for the effects of policies to be seen is 4 years. Once again, you only pay attention to numbers that support your opinion.

Also, I never suggested that one party should be in control. Not sure where you got that idea. I’m just pointing out that believing economic policies of Democrat presidents are the direct cause of positive economic statistics during their presidency is flawed logic. But it might explain why so many Democrats vote to have more of their paycheck taken away by the government.

Why your very own words.

That may be. But then you will have to explain why gdp growth and the economy is also way better under Democratic presidents.

It's not what they do. It's what they don't do. They don't trickle down.
The proof is in the numbers if you can look at the numbers without a biased eye. Most can't obviously

Yeah they are so bad you would have 9 times more wealth with the last 28 yrs of Democrat presidents vs the last 28 yrs of Republican presidents.
If you could do the math you would understand your ideology is leading you to be poorer.

Sounds like a big “no”. Sorry about pushing you to take a class in macro economics. That’s usually a college course. Didn’t realize you haven’t even graduated from HS.
Hang in there, damaged, you’ll graduate eventually and if you dropped out, don’t worry, you can still get your GED.

Yeah, it's all they got.
Republicans vote republican just for lower taxes and lower regulations. It's their MO.
What they can't grasp is while regulations might get lowered and their taxes might get lowered that doesn't translate to a better USA economy.
IF republican policies were that great it would translate to better stock market performance, higher gdp growth rate, and a better economy.

Amazing that is the one thing you come away with at that link.
Corporations were having record profits before this tax give away. Now they can use those USA tax savings anywhere in the world they so choose.

Higher tax rates on lower taxable income does not mean better economy. You’re under the delusion that government taxes create wealth. Please, take a course in economics or something.

You are just silly. Letting your ideology tell you what should be better for the economy. I let the data tell me what actually works. If the data showed Republicans were better for economy I would vote for republican presidents.
The best is Democrat presidents with republican senate. The worst is republican house, senate, and Whitehouse. Which we just had.
You are buying their bs hook line and sinker. Lol

Typical Democrat MO. Give us your paycheck and we’ll take care of you cradle to grave. Taxes DO NOT create wealth. You’re a fool believing so.

If you look at the numbers without bias there is a clear winner. Not a slight advantage a clear winner.
Some of us are capable of doing that and some of us aren't. I know which category I am in and now I know which category you belong to. Good luck. Paying lower taxes on a far lower sum of money is not better than paying the same, or even a bit higher, tax rate on a far bigger sum of money.
2 ups, 6y,

Far lower sum of money? You mean like zero taxes because you have no job and, thus, no income. You seem to be in the illogical category. Good luck gaining wealth by paying more taxes. If you really feel that paying more taxes will benefit you, by all means, pay more. Nobody is stopping you.

As in last 28 yrs of demicratic presidents would give you around 9 times more money than the last 28 yrs of republican presidents. For the S&P 500 jfk through obama.
