Obama OWNED to FUCKING OBLIVION by Trump.

[Doug_Steele]

Trump is making all these politicians look like fools.

Not a trump supporter, but I do work for a clear energy company as a ops leader and our company had a meeting the day after the election giving out 150k - 250k hours of overtime different departments to hourly employees. I thought that was odd and was told had Hillary won, well, they would have stayed at 40 hours per week. It left me wondering how the election gave that many hours of overtime to employees or if it had a impact at all. I was told by upper management that we were cutting hourly employees wages and hours. I was stunned to see all that overtime coming to different departments through GE


It was funny to see the black women, black men, Hispanics, women and some people who literally hated trump leave that meeting prasimg trump.  so, I went from hearing, "fuck Donald trump and his fucked up family" to "wow, I just love Donald and I believe he will get us even more overtime.

Gotta love politics.

you're obviously very smart so why not just answer my question and help me to understand your belief that Obama is a massive failure

Under Obama administration :
- Median household income - Fallen by circa $2000
- Number of Americans in poverty - Increased almost 10 million
- Number of Americans on food stamps - 12.4 million
- 40% increase in average family healthcare premiums
- Home ownership dropped by 4%
- Labour participation rate lowest since March 1978
- Lost 264,000 manufacturing jobs during Obama administration
- Accumulated more debt by the end of his presidency than every president before him combined

I have excluded foreign policy. But two words pretty much sums it up - Libya and ISIS.
Fantastic legacy Mr Obama.

Where do you want to start? Obamacare? Iraq? The almost $20trillion deficit? Pick one, foreign or domestic?

It's genuinely difficult to choose where he's failed worse, foreign or domestic.

[falco]

Well said. I got into arguments with my family well over twenty years ago about the direction of both parties and how neither cared about the people. Only the seat of power and that we needed a non politician to chAnge things.

My country is in that same boat. It's like people heve their brain formated to vote left or right.

[SOMEPARTS]

Young Turks are Liberals that are against Trump, but at least they can keep an open mind. They gave credit where credit was due.

Well to be fair they HAVE to do it to survive in any form at all after those election night meltdown gems.

All of these media Hillary shills are either softening their tone to remain relevant.....or doubling down until they won't be employed.

Being the left's loyal opposition to Trump requires that somebody remain that is at least believable....and frankly there aren't many left unexposed as water-carrying hacks at this point.

Flashback: Obama Mocks Trump for Promising to Keep Carrier Plant in U.S.
‘Those jobs of the past are just not going to come back’

In June, President Obama participated in a PBS townhall and was asked about Trump's promise to keep Carrier's Indiana plant in the U.S. The townhall participant -- Eric Cottonham, a member of the Steelworkers Union employed by Carrier -- asked Obama if anything could be done to stem the tide of jobs flowing out of the country, as Trump had recently promised to do.

"I see here you’re doing a lot of things, but in Indianapolis, there’s nothing there for us," he asked. "I mean, what’s next? I mean, what can we look forward to in the future as far as jobs, employment, whatever? Because all of our jobs has left or in the process of leaving, sir.”

"Those jobs of the past are just not going to come back," Obama told Cottonham.

Instead, Obama advised workers losing their jobs to learn how to adapt their skills to "some of these new technologies," in particular, the "clean energy sector."

"Let's focus on those," he suggested. "The days when you just being able to — you just being willing to work hard and you can now walk into a plant and suddenly there’s going to be a job for you for 30 years or 40 years, that’s just not going to be there for our kids because more and more, that stuff’s going to be automated."

Obama also singled out Trump for derision, saying:

When somebody says, like the person you just mentioned who I’m not going to advertise for, that he’s going to bring all these jobs back, well how exactly are you going to do that? What are you going to do? There’s — there’s no answer to it. He just says, “Well, I’m going to negotiate a better deal.” Well, how — what — how exactly are you going to negotiate that? What magic wand do you have? And usually, the answer is he doesn’t have an answer.

On Wednesday, the White House downplayed Carrier's decision to remain in the U.S. And today the White House doubled down, claiming Trump would need to make a similar announcement every week for eight years to match Obama's record.

Aaaaahhhh.  Well Indiana gave Carrier a 7 million dollar tax break and they are still moving over 1000 jobs to Mexico.  Supposedly, they stated that they'll keep 700 but there's no guarantee.


On the flip side, having Mad Dog Mattis back in the saddle is going to be a hoot.  He bombed a terrorist wedding so he's not going to give two fucks about opening a "new golf course"for Trump  

[Doug_Steele]

Was the cutting of hourly employee wages and hours prior to the election or after? It wasn't clear.

Every hourly employee got a raise and there hours went up. I see hourly people that are happy as can be right now. I have men and women working seven 12's and they absolutely love it. I know some come in on Sunday making around $100 a hour to sit on their asses.

listen up numbskull

Adam, myself, Coach and several others have already PROVEN our intellects to be superior to yours.

We don't have to prove jack shit to an idiot like yourself.

Calm down tough guy... ...youre fucking hilarious tho, keep it up chief. Good laughs

Check back in a year. Sounds like what typically happens before a business model implodes from its own weight and waste.

"Look like"?  They ARE fools.  Most never had a real job in their lives.

The Obama administration has been beyond useless on this issue. Almost makes the Bush administration look competent in comparison.

Assad said that Obama and the US under his command were "not serious" about defeating IS.

No sense posting facts to this moron.

"Straw man"... what a perfect handle.  Ignores facts, uses straw man arguments to debate someone.

[mazrim]

StrawMan retreating once again. He does much better around the dinner table talking to other delusional individuals who ignore reality.

[The True Adonis]

Wait until Trump cuts taxes completely for the Middle Class and all the money that will be in play as a result.  Not only will the economy benefit writ large, but people, for the first time in their lives, have the ability to save money and direct it towards where they need it.

I think Trump will be one of the great ones in history.  America First hasn't been put forward for a very long time and its exciting to see a movement and leadership that wants to do just that.

It's a fun time for sure, but lets just kinda wait and see how things play out before having a circle jerk.

Agree. Not a big fan of several of his cabinet members so far.

I am waiting to see what health insurance costs a year from now.

[jude2]

I am waiting to see what health insurance costs a year from now.

I can't wait for 2018.  My insurance in Obamacare will be 0ver $900 a month for my son and I and we will now have a 14K deductible, increased from 7K. It is like not having insurance at all.

Lol Lol Goku just put the bitch slap to 240 ehhrrr StrawGirl. Obama is a failure. If the liberal media would stop fawning over the jobs report, you will see that the majority of jobs gained were low income wages. Millions of Americans have stopped looking for a job, and would rather live off of unemployment, severance pay, welfare, or assistance. Democrats keep their base by providing free services to protect their vote; thank God it did not work this election. Fifty percent of workers pay no Federal income tax.

The IRS has grown exponentially under Obama. Taxes are ridiculous for corporations, and under Obama government regulations rule the day. Being a physician, we have gotten rid of the SGR and now have MACRA with MIPS / APM and auditing by CMS to recoup money from doctors if some pinhead deems a physicians care not worth of a paycheck. Read about it and your head will spin. This is just in my field. People working for manufacturing are losing their jobs because of regulations and excessive taxes. What is going to happen in your line of work if the government keeps reaching their hand out.

If Trump does one thing, he should severely scale back the size of government, reform or repeal Obamacare, and simplify the tax code. BTW, all of those unemployed people can get a job rebuilding the nation's infrastructure. Put people to work, and don't coddle them with a free check. Generations of welfare is not something Americans should be proud of.

Aaaaahhhh.  Well Indiana gave Carrier a 7 million dollar tax break and they are still moving over 1000 jobs to Mexico.  Supposedly, they stated that they'll keep 700 but there's no guarantee.

I hope Trump will be a great president but this carrier deal isn't a good start. funny how short ppl's memory is. Trump promised a 35% tax on companies like Carrier if they move jobs oversees. They're STILL moving 1,000 to Mexico, will be shipping AC back w/o paying the 35% tax Trump promised while getting $7 million to keep 700 jobs here. It's better than losing all 1,700 but it's exactly what he called other politicians "stupid" for doing. There's no details as to how long they'll keep the jobs here. Most companies sign a deal like that for a yr or 2, maybe even 4, once the contract expires, they move unless we pay them again, it's like a free agent, you don't get their service forever, once the contract is up, you pay them again or they move on somewhere else. All other companies has to do to get large sums of money from the government is threaten to leave.

aye... fuck you with all these facts... Murica

[rudylrichards]

aye... fuck you with all these facts... Murica

. You're right. Facts don't really matter anymore, it's what you can get ppl to believe.

[The True Adonis]

aye... fuck you with all these facts... Murica

Aye, you and rudyrichards just made that shit up.  35 percent tax is still on for sure.  Look at Trumps latest tweets.

No idea why people blatantly lie like rudyrichards.
