Well 2 of those 3 things we have Obama to thank for considering none of Trump policies take effect until 2018.
You seem a bit confused. Aren't you the one who talks about all the stuff Trump has done so far that is BAD, like cutting funding to some crap, or that kind of thing? It seems you don't know whether his policies have been implemented or not, since in one post you say he's done bad stuff, but in another post you say his policies don't matter yet.
However, if you use data, There is a
marked change in the consumer confidence index starting in November of 2016 (that was when the election was). Under Obama, it did rise as Obama's election resulted in the lowest CCI in some time (38 in October of 2008, 45 in November, indicating that at least the uncertainty of who was going to be in office was resolved, then back to 38 in December of 2008 - today it is at 121, and when Trump was elected it was 109).
So, when you talk about how it modifies people's action based on what elected officials say, like when you say Muslims will become terrorists if he talks poorly about Islam, or that black will be lynched again because some white supremacists (who Trump openly and publicly denounces) support Trump, you have to also accept that Trump's rhetoric is demonstrably good for business, and thus good for the American people.
And we didnt have to deal with this tweeting attention seeking Prima donna 24 hours a day or his lo class cronies pulling fire alarms when they get fired
Since you're talking about what we didn't have to deal with, can we talk about what we did have to deal with? Like, “Under my plan … electricity rates would necessarily skyrocket.” Nothing as good for business as telling them that their utility rates will rise exponentially!! How about, “If somebody wants to build a coal-fired power plant, they can. It’s just that it will bankrupt them.” Yep, that did a lot of great work for our energy infrastructure. And, then, there's "I'm always struck by people who think, 'well, it must be because I was just so smart.' There are a lot of smart people out there. 'It must be because I worked harder than everybody else.' Let me tell you something, there are a whole bunch of hardworking people out there. If you were successful, somebody along the line gave you some help....If you've got a business - you didn't build that. Somebody else made that happen." Yeah, that is really going to tell people to strive to do better!! Oh, wait, no it won't, it tells people to wait for a handout, then they'll be able to be successful. Because, we certainly know, "...at a certain point you've made enough money." Well, others may have, but I don't see Mr. Obama giving back his paychecks.
Now, certainly I remember Pres. Obama really trying for bipartisan answers and solutions to the country's problems. Remember when he said, “But I don’t want the folks who created the mess to do a lot of talking. I want them to get out of the way so we can clean up the mess. I don’t mind cleaning up after them, but don’t do a lot of talking"? Yeah, that got a lot of people who would have otherwise had their defenses up towards him just melt in his hands.
Now, if you are looking for someone to help with race relations, certainly the guy who uttered, “I don’t believe it is possible to transcend race in this country. Race is a factor in this society." is certainly the first choice I would go with. I mean, he espoused a complete disdain for lumping people into categories by race when he said, “That’s just how white folks will do you. It wasn’t merely the cruelty involved; I was learning that black people could be mean and then some. It was a particular brand of arrogance, an obtuseness in otherwise sane people that brought forth our bitter laughter. It was as if whites didn’t know that they were being cruel in the first place. Or at least thought you deserving of their scorn.”
Yeah, today is so much more different.
But, at least we didn't have to deal with the narcissism like now. I mean, Obama was known for being humble. For example, “It’s very rare that I come to an event where I’m like the fifth- or sixth-most interesting person.” Or, “I have become a symbol of the possibility of America returning to our best traditions.”
