Like it or not, the stimulus spending saved the economy. Boo hoo.

If you want to discuss it further perhaps you should start a new thread.

Trump states things that he knows to be false. That is indeed a "lie".

A very, very, few of the many, many examples.




Donald Trump is a serial liar. He's the only person in American politics who lies as much or more than the Clintons.

If Trump is self funding his campaign, why do I get numerous emails every day from him and his sons begging me to make a donation to his campaign?

Ah yes. I remember these predictions well.

Hey, could you tell us why it is that the CBO now says that the net effect of the Stimulus is negative, and will hurt us over the long term?

Oh look, an ad hominem and a denial of reality :)


But I would like to see your evidence that Douglas Elmendorf, Professor of Public Policy at Harvard Kennedy School, and former Director of the Congressional Budget Office, is a racist hate monger. You have to wonder why President Obama would appoint and trust such a person.

I was referring to Jeff Sessions and your bogus chart. Apparently, you missed the part in your video where Elmendorf specifically said, "IF nothing were done."

Ah. Well then you are confused. Sessions is not the source of that point, the CBO is.

and your bogus chart.

You mean the chart that accurately tracks unemployment v the predictions put out by those trying to sell the Stimulus?

Yes. He states that the Stimulus left us with lower GDP growth than if we had just done nothing. If we had done nothing, in the long run, we would be better off.

This thread really isn't the place to rehash stimulus spending and the economy...perhaps you should start a new one and I'll join you there.
