    Trump only weakened the American position on our allies.

    They all hate him, except maybe Boris Johnson.

    They are waiting (impatiently) for someone else to replace him to join forces against Russia, have a coherent policy towards Iran and weaken the NK regime.

    MSM = Fake News

    CNBC, when it reports on the economy and business can be a useful source.

    CNBC, The May jobs report is great news for everyone — except Democrats running for office, John W. Schoen,, Published 1:05 PM ET Fri, 1 June 2018.

    CNBC is reporting on the economy and business in the OP.

    After all the back and forth with liberals here they still have not supplied any numbers for the decline of exports to china

    They mention Yeti never any specific numbers

    Libs only know the headlines that the anti trump media feeds them

    China is a mercantilist nation

    Which means it targets foreign industries and drives them out of business

    Once they succeed in closing American factories the china junk becomes the only choice for consumers

    The euros were no friends of America to begin with

    Particularly the germans who dream of the long awaited 4th reich

    Invest in your own country, look towards training your own people with skills. Living in a country with a higher standard of living costs more. Rather than erode your skills base by buying Chinese junk, the alternative is to go live in China, see how that pans out for you.

    And when they raise costs, where do countries go to.

    I don't mind imports as long as the quality is there and comparable in cost. I can only figure that certain Americans favour China to undermine Trump.

    Yet in your haste to create another hate Trump post, you opmitted the fact the unemployment rate is at 3.5% which is a 50 year low. How did you miss that?

    It is almost like that data came out two days after I made this thread.

    How did you miss that?

    You should readjust your medication dose.

    Perhaps it would be better not to post negative threads until all the facts are available. Kneejerk threads usually turn out badly for the poster.

    All current news threads should be delayed until all knowledge can be known.

    Or, vetted properly. It would save the WaPo, NYT, MSNBS, and CNN a lot of time in not tapdancing around what really happened.

    Are you claiming that the survey was improperly reported?

    No, I am claiming that there are certain posters that randomly grab a headline that suits their anti-Trump philosophy and hastily constructs an OP pushing that "story" out before asking themselves, is this going to backfire in my face?
    I do give you kudos for the attempt.

    LOL. That's one way of looking at it. You could also call it a temporary downturn on the road to long term improvements. All policies are a work in progress. And every new day brings new adjustments.

    Just like kneejerk tweets ALWAYS turn out badly for your BLOTUS!

    Then again ALL of his tweets are kneejerk disasters.

    You realize that the majority of the time you're talking about happened on Obama's stagnant malaise watch.

    More in work but manufacturing down - So Americans have become less productive than previously? It seems like the jobs being created are the same sort of jobs that were created under Obama but heavily criticized by the usual suspects
