Leftists believe that good intentions are more important than results

No one cared more about the plight of black Americans than Barack Obama — our first African-American president — who won well more than 90 percent of the black vote. But the sad paradox of Obama's presidency is that a president who was going to lift up black America economically didn't deliver. From 2009 to 2015, the incomes of black Americans fell by more than $900 per family adjusted for inflation.

The black unemployment rate has fallen by a full percentage point in the last year, black labor force participation is up and the number of black Americans with a job has risen by 600,000 from last year. Preliminary data show black wages and incomes are up since the election.

The rate of job growth per month for blacks under Trump has so far been 40 percent higher than the monthly average under ‎Obama. Trump has averaged nearly 30,000 new black jobs per month. That's especially remarkable because Obama was elected when employment was way down.

Barack Obama was a massive disappointment to the entire world and was the epitome of someone who is big on talking but small, or as it was in his case, minute, in deeds.

Like all lefties he liked to try to claim the moral high ground and was doing sort of okay until the inevitable happened and he ran out of other peoples's money to squander on his hairbrained, over magnanimous handouts to the nation's work shy losers and endless swarming herds of illegal immigrants.

History will be brutal to Obama but when Trump's achievements are judged objectively and dispassionately it will be recognised that everyone, African-Americans, European Americans and Asian American all benefited from his prositve pro-American agenda.

I don't have any axe to grind with the Democrat Party nor any allegiance to the Republican Party but I can clearly observe a NEW EMBOLDENED AMERICA emerging from the dark age of the failed Obama experiment.

Hi Ben. I found this earlier:-

2018: The worst year for stocks since financial crisis

https://www.dw.com/en/2018-the-worst-year-for-stocks-since-financial-crisis/a-46915652

And your stupid, fake narrative just melted away. Finally I could see again. I'd been on the alt right for two years before that, and now that I've come out of it, I can honestly say it's just like a Nazi cult. First they tell you a bunch of lies to make you angry with liberals and socialists, then they tell you they need "greater powers" to deal with these unsavoury types. Next thing you know they are loading the Muslims onto a train and taking them to detention camps. No thanks. My grandparents died fighting the Nazis last time, so thanks but nah. But you are perfectly welcome to keep using the avatars of black men to disguise what we both know you are. Your fake narratives and stupid walls of lies should have stayed buried in 1945.

It's the 2nd best year for stocks in American history, behind 2017.

https://www.thebalance.com/dow-jones-closing-history-top-highs-and- lows-since-1929-3306174

"Before the Dow hit its record in January, it had set 96 new record closing highs since the 2016 presidential election."

"On August 22, 2018, the current bull market became the longest-running in U.S. history."

"For the first time, the Dow reached four 1,000-point milestones in one year."
