It’s not just trending downwards, it’s a country in free fall.


GDP declined in 2014 and 2015 because Obama had KSA kill the price of oil to destroy Russia. Current IMF GDP projections show 1.1 growth this year.

You think the President of the United States sets global oil prices? You really are a nut. In any event, here's to hoping President Trump calls up KSA and asks them to keep prices low. Low oil price are a boon to the global economy and if that screws Russia, who cares.

If anything its the opposite. Obama has done what he could to help the Saudis keep prices from falling any further. Between a sick economy and Bakken, prices declined anyway.
