    A recession happens on average every 5.7 years in this country.

    We're now 11 years in since the last one... we are looking like we may get one in 2021 or so, so that'd be about 13 years.

    The FED has staved this off with artificial economic stimulus.

    Rather than jerkoff to facebook memes, try to learn something on the topic while you're at it more simple than "OBAMA = GOD; TRUMP = HITLER"

    The best way to stop a bad guy with a gun is to make sure he doesn’t get a gun.

    LMAO. I tried telling you a year ago that a recession was likely coming and you were having none of while on your Trump economic genius high. You're as bad as AA, working every situation to your "neutral" advantage.

    I said it looks like one may come in 2021.

    So congrats on predicting a recession happening 5 years early??

    Yes, I said an economic downturn would likely come during his first 4 years. That's all.

    A) that's not a crazy bet in any 4 year period, especially coming off a 6 year recovery.

    B) you're still very likely to be wrong

    I assume there is a point in there. Somewhere

    Let me repeat, the metric used as the backbone to explain Trump re-elelction is shown to be a goal post moving fraud.

    My original point was that it was unwise for Trump to tie himself to the economy as it was unpredictable and overdue a corrective downturn or worse.

    Economies arent bound for a downturn. They go in cycles becaude they are triggered by an event. What weakness exists currently that will crash?

    There is no dot.com or housing bubble ready to burst.
