That's hilarious. They pick what some might think is a somewhat arbitrary date, but is actually purposely designed to make Trump look bad.
1987 was the year of the stock market crash and a down market, but during that same period New York City real estate was still flying high.
See Figure #1 for NYC real estate.
New York City real estate proceeded to fall in the early- and mid-nineties, while the S&P 500 went up by more than twelve percent a year.
Notice, however, how the exercise wasn't designed to go back earlier in Trump's career, when NYC real estate was flat or falling and Trump was making serious coin.
With all the advantages that man had/has, he have been remarkable at fucking up.
There are quite literally tens of thousands if not hundreds of thousands of people who were in a similar situation as Donald Trump in the early seventies. They were born to very wealthy parents and had a leg up in the business.
I guarantee that you haven't heard of 99 percent of those people.
Even within Trump's own family, he had four siblings (two brothers, two sisters), all of whom could have invested passively in the market with whatever their father gave them. Have you per chance heard of any of them? Have you seen their name on the Forbes 400?
Just because some fucking retard is asked to write a hit piece on Donald Trump doesn't mean you have to buy into it.
What is this nonsense?
I really don't feel that enthusiastic about replying to you, I gotta say.
I don't blame you. I'd go back to trolling retards if I were you.
I have yet to hear a credible person talk about Obama's presidency being anything below "good". The reason those studies are interesting, is because if you believe "right-wing America", Obama is the worst thing to happen since the plague.
You need to widen your social circle.
Obama's current job approval rating in the RCP poll of polls is below 45 percent.
If you have yet to hear a credible person talk about Obama's presidency being anything other than good, and yet this president has more than 50 percent of the public disapproving of his job performance, I'd say you need to get out and talk to more people.
If you can find anyone credible who thinks that Obama did poorly (objectively speaking), then please show me.
Do you mean the fact that it took Obama six years to get the employment level back to where it was in 2008 and that we still have a lower percentage of Americans in the work force than we did when Obama took office? That kind of objectivity?
Or that his signature issue, Obamacare, is still disapproved of by more than half of all Americans?
As I asked the other poster, please portray what evidence you use when you determine that he only got elected because of his skin color.
Because there was no other reason to vote for him over Hillary in 2008 than the way he looked and sounded.
