U.S. Economy Added 304,000 Jobs in January; Unemployment at 4%

Manufacturing jobs used to be high wage jobs. Not so much anymore. Total manufacturing payroll has been fairly constant for many years which translates into more jobs at lower wages.

 

Even biased Newsweek agrees: Plurality of Democrats Now Say Trump, Not Obama, Is Responsible for U.S. Economy, Poll Finds

As does the Hill...

You of course can continue to live in your own alternative universe.

 

Obama's extent in taking out Bin Laden, a short play:

ST6: We've located Bin Laden. Do we have a green light?

Obama: Sure, okay.

 

Don't care. The data shows otherwise......................http://www.politicalforum.com/index...employment-at-4.550207/page-2#post-1070177741

That isn't an alternate universe. That is a demonstrable fact or reality. Trump has done nothing to alter the trend line of any economic metric, going back 9 years.

 

right. did you think presidents suited up in full tactical gear and kicked in the door themselves? lol

 

From the article you linked to. Not sure 3 cents per hour is going to cause a great celebration among the working class. A 3.2% annualized rate barely beats inflation.

• Average earnings rose 3 cents per hour in December, and were up 3.2 percent from a year earlier.

And as for manufacturing jobs you might enjoy reading this:

He had nothing to do with hunting him down and taking him out.

Period.

Frankly I'm surprised he allowed it, so there is that.

 

What a great debater you are. "Don't care" I don't care what the facts are.

 

Their feelings don't care about your facts.

 

Btw--This is a DUPLICATE Thread. You're about 4 HOURS LATE.,

Fyi-->http://www.politicalforum.com/index...000-jobs-in-january-unemployment-at-4.550207/

Have you given up even trying to search for duplicate threads before SPAMMING the Forum Index with even more RW REDUNDANCY?

Your side needs to do a better job of coordinating the latest pro-Trump Marching Orders.

Just a friendly suggestion.

Now, onto the discussion of this Redundant Topic:

Oh? Don't worry about whether or not Trump will "mention this at the SOTU".

Of course, he will mention it.

Trump is nothing more than an RW Fever Swamp, Faux News, Breitbart Parrot.

Along with reading a Completely Ridiculous Stephen (Goebbels) Miller RW BS Propaganda Speech, I am sure that Trump will Parrot every idiotic statistic (and Delusional RW BS) that Breitbart tells him to (as well as giving us an advance peek at the Screenplay for Sicario 3).

Donald Trump?

And some people actually still support this ORANGE IMBECILE?:smfh:

 

you understand the president is the commander in chief of the armed forces right?

nope

why would he not allow it?

 

it appears you didn't even click on the link. It's to the other thread on this exact same topic, where I completely destroyed the premise of this is all due to trump. click the link, read it, and weep.

 

he doesn't have any facts. My post however, contained economic data going back to 2010, when this trend started, which trump has had nothing to do with.

 

Oh I do. It's the left that has a problem with that.

The same reason he loved the Iranian terror regime, Castro, and Bill Ayers.

 

how?

ah, so you just pulled it from your ass. got it.

 

You realize your source is from a far left progressive think tank, right? What I posted in #37 are all from current government agencies, not a tool for prog talking points.

 

you understand every chart that is listed in that ciatation is from the BLS right?

So, as I said.........That isn't an alternate universe. That is a demonstrable fact of reality. Trump has done nothing to alter the trend line of any economic metric, going back 9 years.

 

The most fundamental aspect of Trump-supporter economic "analysis" seems to be the inability or refusal to read a graph, unfortunately.

 

I don't credit "Berry" for the job growth, but yes, the trend did start under his watch. Obama supporters confuse correlation with causation. Trump supporters can't even get the correlation part right.

 

Manufacturing went up less than forecast and there is no indication that the growth we saw was out of the ordinary or based on any MAGA policy.

 

I realize exactly what they are. The graphs are not from the US Bureau of Labor Statistics, they are from CPPP.ORG's Bureau of Economic Analysis. Dep't. of commerce.

Believe what you want.

 

Then that plurality can't read a graph either.

 

Thank you, President Obama, for putting us on the road to a recovery that the Orange Imbecile is doing his best to derail with a trade war.

 

Dupe thread.

Thoughtful posters use the search function rather than spamming the forum.

 

Not only that, but the belief that a president has much influence on the economy is a false premise to begin with.

Having stated that, trade wars and general incompetence can certainly blunt a surging economy.
