The beast ran a few laps with the racers.
The Beast's top speed? 60

This iconic race showcases the fastest, most fearless drivers in motorsports
More lies.
(I'm joking, Jolly. However looking up racing speeds might be a nice afternoon project for 89)

When Formula 1 starts rolling 20 cars at 200mph with less than 6 inches between any of them, I'll listen.

The magic of Reagan was optimism. Trump is trying to instill optimism. Optimistic people start businesses, hire people and spend money.

Tariffs kill businesses, DOGE fire people and stop spending money. So much for your "optimism."

The 2nd greatest period of economic and business growth in the US was during the guilded age, when the entire US Government was funded solely through tariffs.
The #1 period of economic and business growth is called the Reagan Boom from 1982-1997. Some of the focal points of the Reagan boom were tariffs and trade wars with Japan and Canada (two allies) over steel, lumber, and autos. The end of the Reagan boom can be traced to NAFTA, according to some economists.

On the rigor of your method:
- Cite the quantitative measures you use to determine the "greatness" of periods of economic and business growth.
- Cite the specific economists, or even better yet, the specific works that support your claims.
On the substance of your arguments:
- The Gilded Age brought with it a huge influx of immigrants.
- The Reagan Boom coincides with the tripling of the national debt.
You might as well argue that the huge influx of immigrants, antithetical to Trump's mass deportation rhetoric, was a key feature of the Gilded Age.
You might as well argue that the huge increase of the national debt was what fueled the Reagan Boom; in this case rather compatible with the GOP's plan to add $4 Trillion to the national debt over the next two to three years.

I agree. That is why I have said previously that a president is like a cheerleader.
https://nodebb.the-new-coffee-room.club/topic/32375/the-misery-index/6?_=1739762652457
...one of the presidents main "duties" is to be a cheerleader for the country. Some do it better than others, and make not-so-good times seem okay. And the opposite can be true also.
You can have the exact same "quantitative" data between two presidents and for one, people may think they are doing a great job, and for another, a not so good job.
