    Ask trump
    I think it is bs since we heard no more of this idea after the election

    If it were bs.... would anyone be surprised?
    If it was not bs, i would sure like an explanation of what has happened to unemployment since this quote

    Why would you agree to use an economic metric with an unknown methodology simply because Trump used it in the past?

    As i said
    If trump uses bogus methodologies (fake news).... this is enlightening about trump, it speaks to credibility... and we can discuss that

    If the methodology is not bogus, it should be applied now as it was in the past.... and we can discuss that
