I have been hearing leftists say that Trump's economy is great due to the Obama policies, so we will dissect Obama's policies compared to Trump and learn why the stock market shot through the rooftop when Trump won the presidency.
First of all the leftwing intellectuals, said the economy will collapse if Trump wins. Boy did they get that wrong.
The reason why the stock market is at an all-time high when Trump won was due to his rhetoric and agenda that he made during the campaign. I know leftists are hard to admit this. It was due to his America First agenda and ending the lopsided Trade Treaties of past presidents, including Obama. You have to first understand the purpose of these globalist Treaties like NAFTA, TPP, Paris Agreement. It seeks to do one thing: to enact America's influence throughout the world and control the emerging markets. However, for this to work, it requires that wealth from the United States be redistributed across the world including jobs and finances. The people who benefit are the financial elites and the globalists corporations. However, it is not good for the working man because they now have to compete with third world salary which is unlivable wages. This is one of the largest root cause of inequality that the left refuses to discuss. However, Trump is on the target, which they will not acknowledge because it has been United States foreign policy since FDR. They realized that Colonialism was too difficult to accomplish, so they paired the Intelligence Agencies with the Financial Elites to push globalism. It's a more effective stealth means to take over the world than just conquering them militarily This became known by some as the deep state or shadow government. I call it the unelected fourth branch of government.
Second people say Trump has done nothing and the economy is great due to him inheriting the Obama economy. This is totally false. If you look at the stock market charts, it took off right when Trump won, when he cut regulations, and also broke records the very next day when he axed the Globalist Trade treaties like TPP and the Paris Agreement. If Obama axed those agreements than I will give him credit but he didn't.
Also, right after Trump passed the tax cuts, the stock market broke another record. Trump policies keep and hold wealth in the United States, which will be then used by the masses including corporations to inject in the stock market and increase wages because the wealth is not being redistributed around the world. This is driving the markets up. Therefore, the speculators are betting on President Trump based on the assumptions that I made.
Open borders is also another globalist agenda. It imports the poorest people from around the world, thus, driving America's wealth down. Then we have to hear it from leftists scream why America sucks so bad and education sucks, and they would rave about these other tiny countries, the size of the American States or even some counties. We literally import poverty and people with little education, and this is caused by leftists policies. U can't have it both ways.
Trump will prove leftists economics and paradigm completely wrong, so leftists should stop it with the hate mongering because, in the end, Trump is actually helping our fellow Americans. You have to understand we are in a global competition with the other countries. As the third world catches up with the first worlds, they will siphon off wealth until we meet in the middle. However, you want to enact policies to reduce the bleeding as much as possible and hope that more bleeding comes from other first world countries until the rest of the world catches up. This is exactly Trump's America First policy. It is the reason why nationalism is far superior to internationalism.
Now let's look at Obama's policies. The only reason why Obama did alright is due to three things. He had the feds pumped 4.5 trillion dollars into the stock market to give it the illusion that people were actually investing. This made his numbers look better, but it is all due to fed manipulation. Second, he bailed out the large corporations which preventing larger unemployment rate. Third, he had the feds lower the interest rates to zero which drove up real estate properties and easy money lending. These policies helped keep the Obama economy an afloat while implementing globalists policies that would have crashed the economy without the three listed manipulations.
Trump policies are far superior and he doesn't have to get the Central bankers to manipulate the markets. In Fact, the Central Bankers are working against Trump to slow down growth, by constantly trying to raise interest rates to slow down the Trump economy. The central Bankers do not work for the United States, they work to control the world. They can not have a country like the United States be extremely successful because it will affect the other countries, so they always have to drag down our economy when it is making a positive run.

Yes, and I repeated it many times. Ending Obama's globalists policies that redistributed America's wealth that created a vast gap of inequality. Globalism only helps the financial elites, which gave them even greater wealth, while the middleclass wealth was extracted to third worlds.
