Real talk I don't think anyone had a shot against Obama. Between the media carrying water for him and his charisma, it would have been insane for him to lose when running for second term.

you both are missing why Obama was unbeatable

This is part of it.

I don't know what else to tell you but Bush did not cause the depression.

No he didn't but he sure as hell contributed to it.

bush runined clintons economy and bush made it worse by giving it to obama then trump fixed it then china broke it

he was one of 3 steps to causing the banks to fail in such spectacular fashion.

Eh what

Nope, it's the Democrats in congress. @Knotty

?

Being black is not an impenetrable obstacle. 🙂

Who taught you this, and why are you spouting nonsense?

i know

I guess an argument might ensue so I'll stop here. 🙂

I'll treat you better when you stop acting like a drunkard.

you want to know the truth, it all started with Bush Sr. who started deregulating the banks and shipping jobs overseas to China. Clinton pushed China harder after the Walmart family gave him big money to lower the tariffs that Reagan had started easing. Then Bush jr came into play and de-regulated the banks during the housing boom. Basically allowing them to write bad loans that were 100% government insured.

The comes Obama who received the economy in shambles in 2008 after the great crash in September/October of 2008.

*bank loans*

Also, everybody knew Obama had the slowest economic recovery. 🙂

Obama over regulated, and kept the economy down with overtaxation, and excessive regulation all while easing tariffs further.

second slowest

the Great Depression was the single slowest

took nearly 18 years to fully recover

No need to get too specific there.. it was slow as hell. 🙂

I mean give Obama credit, in many sectors of the economy it rose at the same or similar trends that it did during the Trump years

Yes it was WAY slower than it should have been. This is the exact reason Trump got put into office, though I am not so sure now.

This is only because in 2012/2013 an article was written, and a buddy of mine showed me several posts on a conspiracy theory website that I wrote off as BS until the Riots and Covid. It basically stated that Trump was "chosen" to be president in 2016.

I don't agree with every economic decision Obama made infact I oppose a lot of it but credit where credits due, Trump didnt wave a wand and fix the economy

It also stated that Trump would create mass civil unrest.

Conspiracy theory? Alright, that's interesting. 😕

the claims that the time in 2012/2013 were wild, and would be labeled as "crazy people" talk

I really wish I had the posts from 4-chan from back then that this guy showed me.

Yes 4-chan back before it went to hell in a hand basket

Honestly, it was crazy people talk... conspiracy theories should be taken with a grain of salt in my opinion. 😉

Remember when Alex Jones said "the water is turning the frogs gay" and how crazy that was when he said it a few years back? Turned out to be true. Well this one is coming true before my eyes.

I also know this is the same buddy that is a "flat earther" so yea I take things he says with a heavy grain of salt 🙂

🤔 🙂

If you told me in 2015 that Trump was going to be president, and the USA would be nearing a civil war in 2020 I would have called you a crazy bitch. Now I am looking at "where will the pieces fall if the Union breaks apart" best I can tell is that we will have 4 nations instead of 1 by the end of it.

the west coast, mid-west North, South, and North East will be the regions that will likely stick together, but be separate.

Now I am not saying "if" but "when"

who knows we might get world war III out of this, and the world population will be cut in half
