    If they are the geniuses you say they are, the guy you call dumb wouldn't have been able to outsmart them and win the election --- despite having his campaign spied on, campaign workers set up and framed, and 90+% negative media.

    If you look back 6 months it was the R-word being touted a thousand of times a day on the MSM. Recession, bad times ahead, big losses for everybody with any investments. The China problem was just too big, too complex and it was going to overwhelm Trump. Recession, recession, recession, recession, recession.

    Every damn ignorant talking head on the tube was 100% WRONG.

    No recession, and the economy keeps setting records.

    Go Trump. Re re re re re re re Respect.

    The great economic news just keeps rolling in and setting records every month. Thanks Donald, you did good. Keep it up.

    I once worked for 50 cents per hour picking tobacco and I worked at a newspaper as a printer apprentice for $1 an hour. I retired as a rich man at 55. It can be done but it can't be done if you let the government support you..

    The good news is tracking on pre-existing trends. Crediting Trump is un-informed superstition.

    This is hyperbole. Easily disprove with one example. You should rephrase.

    Mining employment is up 2.1% YoY; Manufacturing is up 0.59% YoY. That's not flat, nor is it down.

    As for "most of the jobs are in service," most of the jobs in the economy are service sector jobs, which brings me to the elephant in the room: that chart you've decided to post.

    That chart, at best, confusing or, at worst, misleading. Service-providing jobs include Finance, Leisure/Hospitality, and Trade, so I don't know why they posted it separately.

    CNBC’s Jim Cramer says these are the best "[economic] numbers I’ve seen in my life." He declares we’re going to win the trade war now because our economy is so much stronger than anyone else. These numbers "are a blessing."

    Democrats are FURIOUS today.

    I think the recession talk was all about ginning up the Democratic base for the 2018 mid-terms.
