I don't have a bias. I couldn't care less who is in office. However, if you're going to willful ignore the fact that there was market enthusiasm immediately following the election, you're purposely being dense. Moreso, I get tired of people just posting random tweets that are click bait worthy and don't provide context. Everyone is so reactive and quick to provide absolutes and these articles /graphs will just provide fuel for a strongly burning fire, which only divides people more and more, not allowing for any sort of resolutions or compromises to take pace. Putting political preferences aside, it is a proven fact the markets, as a whole, are more receptive to a pro-business leader. That is the platform the that Trump, and most republicans run on, and once it was known Trump had won the market reacted. Want evidence? The market was up ~12% during 2016, of which 65% of the return was generated post November 6th. That is more than coincidence. Furthermore, 2017 was the best annual return the S&P 500 had obtained since 2009, which coincided with coming out of the great recession. However, Trump deserves the criticism he's received for the trade games he's playing. He's an ignorant fool. I got into this argument earlier with someone, but the reason that China is going after the Midwest, and the Ag business, isn't because the tariffs will cripple the economy (again, agriculture in a broader sense only contributes ~5% to total GDP), it is due to the fact they want to hit the Trump constituents where it hurts. It didn't explicitly state it, just provided a graphical inference...

I outlined why it was "unfair". Starting the chart at that point in time of him taking office is purposely creating bias to fit a narrative.

Fudge.

delete.

How can you say growth stalled when Q3 GDP figures were the highest since 2010? You talk about trends, but then completely ignore one. Almost like you're deep seeded hatred for Orange is disallowing you to look at things objectively?

I'm going to say presidents don't control stock markets, then use the stock market to say how s#!tty Trump is. Seriously? Political positioning is so tiring. I also find it disingenuous that they start this trend in January. Should start in November of the preceding year, as some of the market enthusiasm is already baked in the reference point. I'm not sticking up for Trump, I think the guy is a huge jackass, but it is so infuriating to see people use snapshots or data-mine for market points that support one side of the isle, or the other. There was clearly, indisputable market enthusiasm when Trump was elected. It has tapered of since then, yes, but we're also 9 years into a bull market. If you were to look at decade long data, going back to the 1920s, the average number of up years for the market is 6. We've blown right past that this decade and one would think a reversion to the mean would occur at some point. As @Waldosaid, completely different economies.

I'm completely fine with this.

OH NO! JUST DON'T SPEAK TO MARROW!!!!

YES

OHHHHH. That makes more sense!

Why would Kentucky fans want to chill the champagne if he were to flip?

Pretty cool he’s getting to finish up with his brother.

It actually is surprisingly nice.

Haha, he probably doesn't even realize those comments are made with sarcasm. Probably thinks he's doing everyone a solid.

Has the great Gambino made his presence known yet?

Awesome, thanks. I definitely misunderstood the original comment!

So clouse was just being clouse again? No announcement?

That is actually a great idea. Never thought of that.

I know it's a dream, but god damn I wish they'd tear down the south stadium and have it three tiered. First tier for students, then a club / suite level, then another section of normal tickets. You don't even have to make them that high up. Hell, make the first section steeper than it currently is and maybe only 20-30 rows. Consolidated it down similar to A&M's end zones after the renovations. Put some sort of roof/overhang that traps down the noise like Husky stadium and that place would be complete.

couldn't* If one were to objectively read our dialogue, I'd be willing to bet they'd imagine you are the one that is "triggered." Usually when you're resorting to using buzzwords or buzz phrases, such as thoughts and prayers, butthurt, piss in cheerios, and triggered, it doesn't bode well for credibility. EDIT: To the link, yes, I do think our fans react in illogical ways, remember when our players were receiving death threats from their own fans? I know, I know, STL Husker, it doesn't sit well and I'm probably dragging the program through the mud! Finally, it seems like you're the one that needs the drink but, based off your grammar, I'd question whether you're old enough to even legally purchase one.

You didn't piss in my cheerios. Usually when you participate in a discussion, it helps your argument when you can provide actual support rather than just shooting from the hip. F'ing tight yo! Sick burn on the thoughts and prayers comment, who are you - Trump? Be sure to pick up your internet tough guy award.

All good, homeboy Jeff Gambino is already doing the good lord's work.

Oh good lord.
