And if and when automation puts tens of millions out of work we will have to come up with something. Meanwhile 6 million jobs have been created under Trump.
And So It Begins...

The numbers are all there and it's public information.
Much easier to do when you inherit an economy on the way up not in a deflationary free fall and losing hundreds of thousands every month. To his credit he has helped to sustain the the upward cycle. Now let's see what he does when it slows or regresses as the numbers seem to indicate. He will likely do as he's done up to this point....Blame Obama, blame the media, blame cabinet secretaries and position appointments, blame Hillary, blame Mueller, blame the Fed,...blame, blame blame etc etc. . Blame anything and anybody except put the blame on his shoulders which is what the job description requires.
Revisionist history. The economy gained strength as soon as Trump was elected, and exploded after the tax cuts.
It will be fine

That’s just your perception because you consume propaganda. If you look at actual data the trend lines just continued on pace.
A revisionist historian am I? You on the other hand are trying to completely cut out and ignore an entire decade which contained some of the most pivotal events in our nation's history which involved some of the most gut wrenching political rolls of the dice in recent times BTW: Average GDP growth during the Obama administration 3.37% Not bad at all when you consider the fact that GDP growth for 2008 was -0.83% including a staggering -8.4% for Q4 2008.
This shows your ignorance. Aid to the poor is a tiny % of the budget, so the little help given to the lowest on the economic scale is a corresponding low % of the debt. Look to massive defense spending as about 1/2 of the debt.
Wrong again, clownie, Trump inherited a steadily growing economy. Slow, steady growth, with faster stock market growth and more job creation than under Trump, and a DECREASING deficit, unlike the ever increasing deficit under Trump.
If you have one iota of intelligence, which you may not have, you would know that Obama inherited two wars, and a completely unfunded medicare Part D started under a REPUB. The fixed budget is more than 90% of spending, with Obama having almost 0 discretion to spend $9 trillion in 8 years." That is foolish, to say the least.
He inherited a recession with all the decreased revenue increasing the debt. In less than two years, he turned it around, and the economy has steady growth for the rest of his two terms. More job growth than Trump, faster stock market growth- more than doubling in his terms. Cut the unemployment by more than half, and saved the US auto industry which was literally bankrupt.
Some able bodied people, in fact most of them who get assistance DO work. It is the working people who still can't afford to live even frugally without help that the right ignores because it helps their donors make huge profits. When an employer doesn't pay enough to live on, and the government makes up the difference, it is taxpayers who are directly giving money to those business owners. If you want to hire someone, you better pay them enough to live on.
I'm retired, idiot, with a mostly paid for home, and a good income stream from multiple sources.
That is an outright lie!!!!!! That makes you a liar, and NOTHING you say can be trusted. Just like Trump. Just over 5 million jobs under Trump, and an increase of about 3%. Under Obama, from the low point at the end of the Bush recession, jobs increased by more than 11%. FOX didn't tell you that, did they???? So of course you were ignorant of that fact.
Link-------- Which President Created the Most Jobs?
You consider 2.9% growth under Trump is an "explosion" and the trade deficit growth of 23% and 1.1 million people fewer with health insurance as an economy gaining strength???????
Link------ Trump's Numbers, April 2019 Update - FactCheck.org
"Job growth slowed a bit under Trump, but unemployment dropped to the lowest level in nearly half a century."
Obama never achieved 3% annual GDP. Only president to never do that.
6 million new jobs in 2.5 years.
Uh, you mean after millions were thrown out of work jobs came back after recession ended.
Liar.
Nice spin. Obama out a regulatory stranglehold on business. The economy was stagnant. He printed money to pay bills. Now excuse me, need to go find that iota.
Slooowwwww......
So Obama doubled the national debt and half of it was defense spending? From the guy who cut way back on the military?
