Have ppl not figured out yet pretty much everything Trump does is detrimental to US citizens?

Sugar high.

America is in the best shape in decades and he's struggling ? You're a embarrassment to journalism

Call it what it is. Another big corporate bailout which created a huge bubble. It did absolutely nothing for the middle class.

trickledowneconomics doesnotwork

Only because of the dumb policy of the federal reserve chairman.

Tax cuts for the rich only!

Just as EVERY reputable economist predicted. trickledownfraud

Hey CNN! Don’t tell the pubs, they think that POTUS is the best thing since sliced bread!

Trump came in and gave the economy an adrenaline shot, very dangerous since it is wearing off. Obama's growth was safe and natural.

A crash knowing the Dems are taking power in the House with the threat of raising the corporate tax rate.

In real news markets up 25% since Trump took office!! Cnn so disingenuous so corrupt

Imagine how much excitement will be lost when Democrats remove tax cuts to pay for all the illegals pouring into our country. They cost us a fortune. Of course, this only affects those of us who are gainfully employed. ALL of us

Maybe the Fed should stop screwing us daily!

This is a lie! The fed Just said the other day before they raise interest rates again that the economy is growing at an incredible rate. That’s why they raise the interest rate you idiots. God, CNN sucks

Why does your network hate so much? WalkAway

Do you think it’s a falsehood or lie from CNN? Interest rates are high. May be it’s good time to buy.

If you hate trump are you giving him the money back so he can build the wall

More tax cuts. No foreign aid. No illegal migrants. America first. Problem solved.

The FED is making sure of that isn't it?

BS..we have never been better.

nunznini Yeah, when the Fed is out of control, that'll happen.

Desperate filthy Swamp raising interest rates AGAIN to hurt Trump's Economy! FirePowell

The tax cuts will continue to benefit our economy

Federal Reserve and Deep State

And because of that he signs with thick pens to make it easier to scan :))

I didn’t get squat!!

If that’s the case, explain every December since 1980

The fade started right after the Mid term election. I wonder what happened that shook the markets in such negative fashion? Uuhm, perhaps the fear of a democrat controlled house.

Trump’s predictability is now a thing of the past. Personally, I have taken out every share I ever had as protection against his lunacy

Party's over...

CNN: The Info Wars of the left. CNN should be banned from social media for posting this kind insanity on a constant basis

My company gave bonus check after these tax cuts and then laid us off 10 months later!!!

Tired of your negativity and continued 'bad news'.. you've never supported our POTUS...shame on you

dow is still 4000 points higher or so since he took office.

What’s not fading is the HUGE deficit we owe due to the taxscam gift to the richest Americans.

Might have something to do with 8 interest rate hikes in 2 years. Compare that to 1 in 8 years of Obama.

1. Corp tax cuts. 2. Corps buy own stock with tax windfall. 3. Stock price rises-everybody happy. 4. Trump effs up trade relationships by going nuts, stocks fall and fall. 5. All the money from tax cuts gone, still 1.5 trillion shortfall in US

The great economy is why stocks are falling. Great economy means the Fed raises interest rates, thus stocks fall. Are you guys new to the world?

Well I’ve already moved my retirement funds away from growth to be more defensive.

Strange how when Democrats win the house, the markets start falling.

realDonaldTrump is grotesque TrumpResign

For you leftist propagandists maybe. But not for those who want the US to do well.

Question: the tax cuts went mostly towards companies buying back their own stock. With the stock market crashing, did the lower value of the stocks vaporize the tax cut money?

The biggest hit to our economy is the trade war. Trump is negotiating a better tariff and the left is telling China that Trump's lying about his hand when in reality Trump has a straight flush and a lot more chips than China.

Trump started this Tariff War. Trump installed Powell that’s his guy. This is Trumps foreign policy as to why the World doesn’t trust American markets or political direction now. Cost of doing business is up due to tariffs. Coaches get fired for picking the wrong guy ResignTrump

Stick around Maybe if the media quit trying to destroy Trump we would all be better off

Time to buy

No...the unemployment rate the lowest since 1969...more people working...stop the fake, fake, fake, fake news

Fake news. Record sales this season bitches!

Our bonus checks this year were half of last year. This is working out great. Asshats.

Just like God, God can tell you how to do something after that your on your own.

Did anyone ever doubt it...if so FOOL!!!

Because the democrats have taken over the house

LIES still better then Obama’s lolololol

The tax cuts have almost nothing to do with the market's performance in 2018. Anybody even remotely financially literate knows that. FakeNews

NotPhollowing Lies.. Go check out how many businesses are in Black for Christmas. Stop your lies!!

But us small businesses are kicking major ass , it’s been an awesome year , Main Street is thriving vs Wall Street . That is ok isn’t it ?

Blue collar guys like us didn’t get a break it’s just for the greedy fat cats

You want a wall? make it by yourself. realDonaldTrump

🦴

Yep, dems in the house, that’s what happens

It created a bubble the rich just reinvested the money doing just that. If the 'working poor' made more money they would buy goods which would boost our economy and make those corporations real money. You would think the geniuses could see that but no. Just getting what they can!

Is that a signature or the results of a lie detector

Why did Americans elect someone as their President, who doesn’t know anything about politics, law and economics? FoxNews POTUS NBCNews realDonaldTrump nytimesworld washingtonpost

We will be having a long Recession through 2022.

its tanked since dems won the house.

WHAT PRESIDENT?

1: federal reserve increase interest rates 2: the house switch parties 3: gov “shutdown” The three main points for the stock market hurting. 1 is the biggest reason by far...

Couldn’t have anything to do with the Fed pricking it’s own bubble or the Dems taking the Senate

Awesome!! But how about those that HAVE to go to work and not be paid because of the shutdown Thanks!! Merry Christmas to me and my family.

Khashoggi

Signature as big as his ego. Huge.

The Moron-in-Chief effectively caused the market to experience an overdose sugar high on tax cut dollars gone wild. Is it any wonder we're 'coming down' off that 'high', now?

Kinda like your ratings

Yeah it has nothing to do with the Feds raising rates for the 8th time in years. 8 years of Obama, 1 rate hike and his economy was still shit.

Jesus Christ. Who could have seen this coming? Oh...

The Federal Reserve played no part?

The Federal Reserve is the culprit! Fully audit the Fed! They are part of the problem not the solution.

As we very well know it does bc we don’t live in a magical place where things r forever solved. Let him deal w/this next part before you start brain washing defenseless tv viewers that everything is a failure & that’s the end. Do u live in reality? I’m sick of reading your trash.

And it has been the worst you have done the tax cut was only for republicans and family

Republicans run the economy like an addict would.

You can thank the feds for that. It’s not Trumps fault but I’m sure you won’t report that. CNNBLOWS

Can’t wait for liberals to be back in charge, if I’m not giving half my money to the government I just don’t feel good about myself. resistdrumpf orangemanbad bluewave

...and the recent declines are COMPLETELY unrelated to investors feelings about TheDemocrats winning the house 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣🤣 believers are dumber than 💩

Oh really? I beg everybody to check their 401K. Compare it to then Vs. now. Obama sucked as President.

CNN's nonstop 24/7 assault on this presidency continues. I hope you're all paying attention to these crazy propagandists and they run a campaign for the democrats on tv/online and elsewhere. Total Nazis.

Trump be like 'How is my writing mommy?' lol

The Fed is out of control...that's the whole of it!!!

Kinda like cotton candy.

Trickle down economics is not sound economics

They haven’t even kicked in until this filing season.

And nothing could make CNN happier!

I stand with Trump🇺🇸🇺🇸

His tax cut failed in his face

FatBaby LittleDonny

I think the obvious solution is more tax cuts.

Exhibit 213

NotMyPresident He can't sign!

Call it a fence, call it a wall, call it a piñata, just build the damn thing!!

Tired of winning?

I make the best deals...🙄😳😂🇺🇸

Funny, it went down as soon as the democrats won the house. But we won’t talk about that huge coincidence
