Would Trump be the 1st POTUS to win a Nobel in economics?

Lots of Trump haters here. But even you guys will have to admit the economy is doing very well right now. And considering all Trump undid of Obama's previous work, Trump really does deserve the credit.

For better or worse..

Fascists don't seem to understand how the nomination process works for Nobel prizes.

Only certain people can officially nominate someone for a Nobel prize. Just because some sister-boinking conservative propaganda-peddler suggests it doesn't make it a real nomination. Didn't you guys humiliate yourselves enough suggesting that Bush II was "nominated" for a Nobel prize? Do you really feel the need to go back to the same well and humiliate yourselves again?
 
I like how the economy have positive growth is now considered a great thing by the right-wing.
 
Seems to me that Donald Trump deserves Ig Nobels instead.

An Ig Nobel in Economics for posing as a great businessman when he is more of a professional celebrity.

An Ig Nobel in Peace for his deal with Kim Jong Un.

I nominate him for an accelerated Darwin award instead.
He is an old man that has already reproduced way too many times. Not eligible for a Darwin.

Not true, Jimmy.
The Darwin Awards purposefully chose not to consider offspring. It would complicate the awarding process.
It's all about doing something lethally stupid to remove you from the gene pool, independent of existing offspring, or hysterectomies, vasectomies, etc., that already removed you from the gene pool.

But for a Darwin, he has to remove himself. Charging into an active shooter situation without a gun, slapping an aide with a concealed carry permit, electrocuting himself trying to tweet in the shower, that sort of thing.
We can't vote him out.
Nor would him having a heart attack on top of a porn star count, or falling down the stairs off of Air Force One, or having a seizure while testifying.

Although, if he plans to fake a seizure during testimony, and he has a real one, but his team doesn't realize it's real, and they only pretend to sweep his airway, that might count.

Fair point. Then let's make him an appointment with an inept sushi chef and some puffer fish. Let's say at a "state dinner" for a bunch of evangelicals, the entire gop cabinet and the shitgibbon family.

Hey...Don't forget the masses of wild mushrooms collected by amateur mycologists!

Yes, the economy has kept improving, much as it has for the last 8 years. Look at these 2 charts showing wage growth and the unemployment rate, and please explain where the Don the Con affect shows up.

Also, a part of this continued trend is partly due to the even higher spending and higher deficits from the tax cut for the rich made last year. In a "good economy" deficits should be heading downward. What do you think will happen to our now almost trillion dollar annual deficits when we do hit another recession? Sensing any Con here...?

I'm willing to set up a betting pool.

Any pro-trumpster fire people want to put their money where their propaganda is? :)

Another forum I'm on does avatar bets instead of money. You lose the bet, you have to use the avatar the winner chooses for a pre-agreed upon amount of time.

I think you misspelled "con-man".

Aren't Ig Nobels for useless research, not for failure?
 
Trump should definitely win an award for getting the most idiots to ignore the facts and believe in nonsense like "I am responsible for growing wages".

Median wages grew at 2.7% per year rate during Obama's last 4 years but decreased to 2% growth rate in the last year under Trump. By what twisted logic would that imply that Trump has improved wages?
