    a fifteen dollar an hour federal minimum wage means, more tax money sooner, rather than later!

    Well, we both know why you keep editing my post.

    I’ll try one last time to see if you can man up and admit trump is incompetent......So let’s compare Obama’s first 2years with trumps.

    Obama was handed an economy in the worst recession in 80 years, financial and stock market crash, loosing 700,000 jobs per month, all thanks o republican incompetence.

    Trump was handed a booming economy, with almost full employment and a record high stock market.
    Debt and deficit are inevitable under the first scenario.

    Debt and deficit at all, under the 2nd is total economic and fiscal incompetence.

    That word, you keep using it, I do not think it means what think it means,
    Gee, then why did Obama run up over twice as much debt as Trump in Obama's LAST year, when, according to you, the economy couldn't have been better?

    Obama's last year he increased the Federal debt $1.1T, when according to you, the economy couldn't have been better.
    Trump only increased the Federal Debt by $500B.
    Bipartisans all agree, half as much is twice as good!

    [David] "Brooks said the threat to our norms is "serious and just poisonous to [the left in] our country" but people have decided that they just care about the substance and that "the substance is pretty good on what the Trump administration has achieved." Brooks listed the progress on China-U.S. trade talks, the North Korea-South Korea talks, the tax cuts, and the "great" economy as examples.

    "The effects will be long-lasting and they will be devastating for faith in politics [of the left] and for the [left leaning portion of] society. But those of us who are critical of Donald Trump can’t hide from the facts that go against our story," Brooks lamented. Brooks also admitted he was wrong about being against the Trump tax cuts.

    "I was against the Trump tax cuts," he acknowledged. "But the early evidence is that they’re working better than I thought. And so, in the first quarter, among S&P companies, capital expenditures are up 39 percent. That’s a seven-year high. That’s far higher than a lot of us thought."

    https://www.realclearpolitics.com/v..._more_important_than_threat_to_our_norms.html

    Vote your pocketbook, vote the substance. Vote to take your "crumbs" and get some more. Vote for peace on the Korean peninsula.

    Vote for Peace and Prosperity. Vote for Trump, vote to support Trump in the 2018 midterms.

    The Federal Debt has increased $19,994 to $21,045 under President Trump. That's an increase of $1,051B in 472 days.

    Obama, over the same period ran the debt up $2,649B (2017 Dollars).

    Bipartisans agree, when it comes to the Federal Debt, less than half as much is more than twice as good!

    When Trump's been President for 2 years, we will, Silly!
    Trump didn't just whip Obama by half in Obama's first year, he whipped him by half in his LAST year.
    Then why did Obama run up TWICE as much debt in his last year, as Trump did in his first year?
    Of course, Obama ran up $1.1T in his final year, when according to you, there was no reason to.

    Thankfully Trump only ran up half as much debt in 2017 as Obama did in 2016. Bipartisans all agree, when it comes to Federal Debt, half is much is twice as good!

    Actually it is a firm fact the Trump hasn't been president for two years. And he is on quite a run! CNN's Poll reports that 57% of Country Says We're on the Right Track; Trump's Policies (Though Not Trump Himself) See Rise in Popularity.

    Last week, the unemployment rate fell to 3.9%, a level unseen since Peak Heat of the Clinton Bubble.

    A solid majority of the public, 57%, says the country's on the right track.

    And while Trump remains unpopular, his actual policies keep increasing in popularity.

    President Donald Trump's approval rating is holding steady in a new CNN poll conducted by SSRS, but his numbers on handling several key issues are climbing, as almost 6 in 10 say things in the country are going well.

    Overall, 41% approve of the President's work, and 53% disapprove. Those numbers are about the same as at the end of March.

    On the issues, however, Trump's numbers are climbing. Approval is up 4 points on the economy to 52%, the first time it's topped 50% since March 2017; up 5 points on foreign trade to 43% approval; and his numbers on immigration have improved 4 points since February, with 40% now approving. On handling foreign affairs, Trump's approval rating tops 40% for the first time since April of 2017, though the increase since March is not statistically significant (42% approve currently).

    The President's improving issue ratings come amid a sharp rise in positive impressions of how the country is doing. Overall, 57% say things are going well in the US today -- up from 49% saying the same in February -- which is the largest proportion to say so since January of 2007.

    Debate sure is easy when you can refute your opponents entire argument as silly caterwauling without engaging it in the slightest, right?

    Dirty Donald is following the exact disasterous plans of Reagan-Bush1 and Bush2 cutting taxes on the wealthy further enriching them,cutting banking and lending regulations,lowering lending standards.I have not seen a single economist who has not said that his policies will lead to ever growing national debt.They are in the process of setting us up for another financial collapse.
