I guess the gop taking over congress help “reel” in some of the spending in his second term. And yes I am aware the continued deficits spending that is still going on. Even Lou Dobbs pulled that "I thought Barry said 3% was the new normal". Evidently, he and his Walmart listeners don't know the difference between quarterly and annual numbers. :rolleyes: And whatever "reeled" in Obama's spending, the fact is the annual deficit decreased substantially during his presidency. Unlike Trump, where with both houses republican, the deficit increased 17% yoy 2017 to 2018. Now THAT's winning. |

I think record load factors should be a good indicator of the state of the economy. I’m sure you’ve noticed. But anyhow, make hay will the sun is out cause we all know it won’t be a perpetual wave. |

It’s a moot point anyway since no one will stop spending regardless of party. |
