How Trump Saved the Union

I get letters from liberal critics. Every time I report that President Donald Trump has saved the U.S. economy, they claim I'm lying. And conversely, every time I report Barack Obama ruined the U.S. economy, they claim I'm lying.

Well, the proof is out. Liberals, as usual, are wrong. How many times can they be wrong and maintain any credibility?

According to a new analysis by Pew Research -- based on hard facts -- the Obama years were a nightmare for the 50 states. That's exactly what I've been saying. And Trump's economic policies have saved those same 50 states. Trump saved the Union. That's exactly what I've been saying.

I know facts scare liberals to death. But there is now proof that Obama's policies were a disaster for the states. "Free" didn't work out so well for Obama. Here are the facts from Pew:

First, Obama's so-called recovery was the worst and weakest in 70-plus years. Second, Pew reports, even after this "recovery," fewer than half the states had recouped the tax revenues they lost in the recession.

Even as late as 2015 and 2016 (Obama's last two years in office) state budgets were a mess. And Pew reports that as Trump took office, the U.S. economy showed signs of going back into a recession.

In other words, for our 50 states, there never was a recovery. The Obama years were a disaster of epic proportions. Worse, most states were in such terrible shape they could not have survived another recession.

Pew reports that from the moment Trump took office, state economies started to dramatically improve. Then the economy skyrocketed in 2018 following the Trump tax cuts. In the third quarter of 2018, state tax revenues grew by 5.7%.

Trump's policies produced an economic miracle for the states. In fiscal 2018, states added almost $10 billion to their rainy day funds. Ironically, even California, the state suffering most from Trump derangement syndrome, prospered from the president's policies.

California Gov. Gavin Newsom just announced a $21.5 billion surplus, far above projections. Why? Because corporate tax returns are so good. But didn't Trump dramatically cut corporate taxes? Didn't liberals claim this would reduce tax revenue? Wrong again.

Californians suffered under Obama. Obama produced misery. Trump has made California rich. But Californians hate Trump. Los Angeles is renaming Rodeo Road as Obama Boulevard. No wonder they call California the land of fruits and nuts.

Even the deep-blue land of Obama (aka Illinois) just reported tax revenues exceeding projections by $1.5 billion, thereby eliminating this year's budget gap. How come Obama's policies never did that?

Tax revenues in 41 states are now setting all-time records, according to Pew. Revenues are up 29% in California, 18% in New York and 17% in Connecticut. All of this in spite of liberals whining over Trump's tax reform hurting high-tax states. Liberals were wrong -- again.

The facts are in. Obama might have saved the teacher unions and the government employee unions, but thank God that Donald Trump saved the Union (as in America).

The leaders of the democrat fascists didn't give a damn about the States and don't now, nor do they care about the American population, imported illegals or those born here. All their talk along those lines is as much smokescreen as it is a way to stuff the ballot box with the votes of illegals.

Getting their opponents to focus on Communism or Socialism, the sort of thing democrat fascist can always draw useful idiots to, is absolutely all a smokescreen.

We as Conservatives are confronting people who are disciples of Gramski and only to the extent that his methods are more likely to lead to the establishment of a one party State, not to, as Gramski advocated, lead to a one party Socialist State.

For all the noise and distractions, look at where the real effort from the left went. They own the universities, the media, half or more of the churches and starting in the forties infiltrated every Catholic seminary to produce the faithless and the faggots who mostly through seniority have control of most Catholic parishes in the US.

The media has to be taken back by breaking up the monopolies now in control of it and the universities need to cease to receive Federal funds other than possibly retaining Pell Grants since they can be used at technical schools and community colleges as well as at universities.

Look at where the bastards put their money and spent thirty years working their own people up through the ranks to the upper echelons, not at where they generate smoke, mirrors, and video clips.

Gramski, not Marx or Lenin, is the father of the tactics we've been fighting and in the name of Conservative economics we've totally ignored the tactics our enemy was using to cut us to ribbons.

Trump is giving us time to wakeup and we're bragging about the increase in tax revenues especially in those States run of, by, and for, our enemies.

Get it through your heads, the democrats don't give a damn about anything but establishing their one party State and as long as they have the levers of power in the sectors Gramski recognized as critical an improved economy won't do a thing to slow them down or wake their faithful followers up.

"as Trump took office, the U.S. economy showed signs of going back into a recession."

It's easy to determine what causes a recession: people slow down their economic activity. It's quite difficult to determine WHY people slow down their economic activity. It happens when more people are pessimistic about the future than optimistic. This is effected by things such as media, weather, buzz from friends, and GOVERNMENT POLICY. Trump had negative media help and no effect on weather, but his 80 million Twitter followers certainly changed the buzz, and, of course, he SET GOVERNMENT POLICY.

It's funny that liberals can't figure that out.

Our state has record revenues in the state Treasury. A $1.4 billion surplus. The State Constitution was amended by the voters decades ago to provide a tax refund "kicker" for the taxpayers when there is a budget surplus.

Could be over $600 to each Oregonian. The Democrats that own super majorities, say to us, F the voters, we need the money to prop up the state union retirement accounts, as they have been poorly managed by the bureaucrat Democrats. Oh and we hate Trump.
