If this was under Obama or Hillary it would be covered 24/7 by CNN.

Only if you invest but Democrats have a problem with capitalism and big corporations.

If you like big stock market gains (and who doesn't?)...

"With Obama as president, the U.S. stock market, as measured by the S&P 500, returned 235%, or 16.4% annualized.

The Obama stock market trounced the stock market of his presidential predecessor, George W. Bush, which fell 30.6% from January 20, 2001 to January 20, 2009. Bill Clinton’s stock market, however, beat the Obama stock market, returning 264%, or 17.5% annualized."

Republicans consistently claimed that Obama's stock market was because of rigged numbers. But apparently Trump fixed all that.

How do you write these blog posts with a straight face?

All I did was give the facts. It was a stock market chart. You are the one defending Obama and going off on a tangent.
Why are you so defensive about the worst president we have had in years?

When Obama came into office the market had plunged so far it had no place to go but up.

President Trump's election has caused the stock market to go up 25% in 9 months.

With Obama the middle class got whipped, the military was decimated because of the sequester, and America became followers instead of leaders.

Thank God he and Clinton are yesterday's news.
