Wasn’t trying to be specific - just thought it’s ludicrous to say the US economy exploded under Trump, seeing as how he had nothing to do with the stats that actually improved. It may not be 5 years, but it’s not a few months either.

Those are good points about sentiment, but that doesn’t increase spending by any noticeable amount in the long term. Plus, It’s not a change the president implements; it’s a reaction to him being elected. So how can you credit him with it?

My suspicion is you chose 5 years because that is how long - roughly - it took Obama to turn the economy which conveniently supports your ideological position...

Now Trump is supposedly on board with importing cheaper drugs from Canada as a way to lower drug prices.  Canada doesn't exactly have a surplus to supply a country that's 10 times bigger, and there will be pressure to restrict exports that would affect it's own supply and domestic prices.

It's a good plan.  It won't work so drug prices will stay high, and Trump can pretend he gives a fuck about people who cannot afford prescriptions.

Trump proposes rule for importing prescription drugs from Canada

Canada imports a significant portion of America's drug demand and sells it to them.  Could that actually happen?

Yes. Iran was abiding by the agreement they made with the west. Then trump had a hissy fit, violated then canceled the agreement and hit Iran with crippling sanctions. Trump created tensions for no reason except he didn’t like the deal because Obama. He cancelled the deal and then had zero strategy to negotiate something else.

This sounds exactly like health care. Trump attempts to dismantle ACA, says he has a better plan that will benefit everyone. After 3+ years he has no plan.

I am speechless - Iran have no responsibility for shooting down a civilian airliner in their own airspace. Heard that CNN have some openings for opinion writers?
