Today, Trump and Fox are highlighting the longest bull market in history.

[Bleacher Creature]

It began on March 9, 2009.

I know that this is all a ruse to distract from the story about Trump's legal issues, but this isn't even get an "E" for effort!!

(On edit, even though it's stating the obvious: Thanks Obama!!)

2. Thx OBAMA !!!

[Achilleaze]

5. True that. Thanks President Obama*

As it happens, notorious republican criminal Dirty Donny** is still coasting along in Obama's wake.


* America's last legitimate President & Commander-in-Chief

8. The bull market began March 2009

So almost 8 years of Obama and about 1 1/2 years of Trump.
You’re damn right it’s Thanks Obama.

3. The Dow trend is basically flat or down since the beginning of the year

It's down nearly 900 points since late January.

4. Clearly the source of all the economic anxiety that led people to vote for him

6. Ah yes. The booming Obama Economy. Thank you, Obama.

[Totally Tunsie]

7. Ya' mean the bull market that started TEN years ago

when Obama was President? Oh, they seem to forget to mention that when it's referred to as tRump's bull market. Problem is, we the public can do better math than they can, and 8/10s is greater than 2/10s Thank you, President Obama, for a great run and laying the groundwork for years after your administration.

For those invested in the stock market and billionaires getting tax cuts… yep.

For the average American…

For the biggest group of American workers, wages aren’t just flat. They’re falling.
