The Booming Trump Economy....or not
 
156,000 Jobs added in August. Averaging 170,000 per month since February. Sound good?

Not if you compare it to the 216,000 a month average for the last three years of the Obama administration. And each month that passes, Trump can count less and less on Obama to see him through.

So the Alt-Left and Soros must be paying all those protester under the table.

Anyway we all know that Obama Administration played with the Jobs numbers. Sometimes it's not the quantity (part time) but the quality (full time) that matters. :coffee:

For your info, my stock portfolio has performed beyond expectations since Trump has been in office. But it's nice to also see that gold is making a comeback. :coffee:

RBG is aging every day.

I will co-sign that. To be prepared for the horror of having to look at that nasty hag all over the place for 4 years & then have a miracle happen & have her vaporized is better than almost anything I could imagine. The joy of election night and seeing all her supporters crying will be a very fond memory I won't forget as long as I live. I laughed at those sobbing fools so hard and long I damn near peed my pants.

We know no such thing. That's just the whiny right talking.

In theory jobs will tick up as well. Having a Republican Controlled federal government is going to have that effect on business owners. They are much more apt to spend because they are confident that the leadership is pro-business as opposed to the previous administration that wasn't.

Is it Trump? Yes and no. Anyone with a R next to their name would have had similar results so legislatively he hasn't done much yet but people are happy he isn't going to hurt them. *cough* ObamaCare *cough*

If "business" supposedly favors repubs, it's odd that the stock market prefers them dems.. :cool:

On May 1, 2014 the Inspector General of the Commerce Department issued a report on those allegations. Some of the chapter headings of that report follow:

Chapter 3: Results of Investigation into Survey Falsification Allegations .................19

I. Our investigation found no evidence supporting the allegation that Subject 1 instructed his subordinates to falsify survey data...........

II. Our investigation found no evidence supporting the allegation that Subject 1 changed subordinate survey responses to manipulate data, or that Subject 1 or Subject 2 prevented falsification reports from being reported to Census Bureau

III. Our investigation found no evidence supporting the allegation that the national
unemployment rate was manipulated by the Philadelphia Regional Office in the
months leading up to the 2012 presidential election.

IV. Our investigation found no evidence supporting the allegation that Fernando
Armstrong directed falsification on the American Housing Survey in order to meet
performance goals.

V Our investigation found no evidence supporting allegations of widespread survey
data falsification in the Philadelphia Regional Office .....

Fake News. Phony. False. Pants on Fire

Who cares about your stock portfolio? The same number of people who care about Lamboguy's gold. One. I care about whether people have jobs.

Thats an extremely over simplistic view. You could also compare deficit spending and a multitude of other factors like wars and geopolitical/economic climates.

Just go ask your average business owner how they feel about the future right now? I guarantee it's higher now than the previous administration.

Unemployment is super low. You did cite unemployment numbers as signs Obama was doing a good job didn't you? ;)

I thought they were BS then and I still think they are... but that's okay I'm a "liberal" around these parts now I guess.
