The week's question
In March 2025, in the thread "Re: OT, out", Umm asked the members: "Do you think it is because America is made up of magical soil that makes businesses based in America magically profitable?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Why does the Stock Market and the Economy do so well under Democrats and so poorly under Republicans?

We have an attempted explanation from none other than Donald Trump himself:

Today he said "This is Biden's stock market, not mine. I didn't take over until January 20th...This will take a while, has NOTHING TO DO WITH TARIFFS, only that he left us with bad numbers..."

You know, the same guy who when the stock market was rolling under Biden, on 1/29/24 said "THIS IS THE TRUMP STOCK MARKET BECAUSE MY POLLS AGAINST BIDEN ARE SO GOOD THAT INVESTORS ARE PROJECTING THAT I WILL WIN, AND THAT WILL DRIVE THE MARKET UP"

Can anyone spot the flaw in logic and/or sleaze factor here? Why would anybody trust this man?
