HE SMOKED 'EM:

Trump-Era GDP Growth Was Worst Since Great Depression, Analysis Shows | HuffPost Donald Trump was fixated on GDP during his time in office. Maybe he shouldn’t have been.

The annualized real growth in America’s Gross Domestic Product during Trump’s administration was the worst since the Great Depression, according to updated and revised government data.

And quarterly GDP data, which only dates back to Dwight Eisenhower’s presidency beginning in 1953, puts Trump dead last among the dozen presidents since then, according to Bloomberg.

The Commerce Department’s Bureau of Economic Analysis has four quarters of data for each year only going back to Eisenhower’s term.

Bloomberg jiggles the numbers a bit to adjust the comparison periods, but Trump doesn’t come off great in any of them. Check them out here.


Meanwhile from the Kos, he truly is FIRST in so many ways. And the writer of this article COUNTS THE WAYS (feel free to add your own):


Donald Trump is #1

Donald Trump is #1


Donald Trump is #1
  • 1st President in 28 years to not serve a second term.
  • 1st President in 45 years to not release any of his tax returns.
  • 1st President in 89 years to lose the Presidency, the House and the Senate in a single term.
  • 1st President in 129 years to lose the popular vote twice.
  • 1st President in 102 years to allow more than 120,000 Americans to die in a single virus outbreak, and he went five times beyond that.
  • 1st President ever to fail to hit a 50% approval rating at any point during his Presidency.
  • 1st President ever to accuse his predecessor of not being an American.
  • 1st President ever to be elected with the help of a hostile foreign nation.
  • 1st President ever to be impeached twice.
  • 1st President ever to have multiple members of his own party vote in the Senate for his conviction in an impeachment trial.
  • 1st President in 152 years to boycott his successors inauguration.
  • 1st President ever to refuse to concede defeat.
  • 1st President since the Civil War to fail to ensure a peaceful transition of power.
  • 1st President ever to incite a terrorist attack against his own government.
  • 1st President ever to have his charitable foundation closed for fraud.
  • 1st President ever to have his "university" closed for fraud.
  • 1st former President ever to have his company criminally indicted for fraud.
  • 1st President ever to have his inaugural committee sued by the government for fraud. It's almost like a pattern.
  • 1st President ever to have his personal attorney convicted for covering up hush money payments on behalf of the President to a porn star. Oh, and also a Playboy model.
  • 1st President since Nixon to have his campaign manager convicted. 1st President ever to pardon his campaign manager. Notably, the campaign manager was convicted for illicit financial dealings with . . . Russians.
  • 1st President ever to have his Director of National Intelligence convicted while the President was in office. 1st President ever to pardon him. Notably, the DNI was convicted for lying to the FBI about his conversations with . . . Russians.
  • 1st President ever to have his Campaign Advisor convicted for lying to protect the President about the President's dealings with . . . Russians. 1st President ever to pardon such an individual. Again, it’s almost like a pattern.
I counted 22 "horrible" ways this article list as ways that Trump was # 1 at being president!

How anyone could look at this list and still be for Trump is beyond my understanding.

This list shows how Trump by far was the worst president in US history.

And...this list leaves out some of Trump's worst actions as being president!

These facts about Trump should be put on bill boards all across the US and put in commercials in all media outlets!

Thanks b.c. for finding this article!

George Washington, our first president, was "first in war, first in peace, and first in the hearts of his countrymen."

It's good to see how Donald Trump carried on that proud tradition of being first in so many ways.
