Isn't it fun being manipulated by republicans? I think we should vote for them again.
Exactly this!

Somewhere I suspect a Koch brother or two are behind this. They had to find a way to counterbalance the good jobs report and unemployment being under 8%.

So predictable.

When you're saying that people are just plain stupid, it would help if you had a grasp of 4th grade English skills. "or they're just plain stupid" is what you meant to say. The word "their" and "they are" are NOT the same.

South Dakota is a useless state, it brings nothing to the national table and only 7 states take more government dollars per dollars contributed to the national economy. California is the heart of the American economy and it's a major contributer to the national economy, funding many of those useless states like South Dakota...plus, it's the heart of the food industry, tech industry, pharmaceutical industry and venture capital industry.

Without California, this country would be screwed. Without South Dakota, this country would not have to have an idiot like Kristi Noem in Congress...

it's predictable that liberals think more people dropping out of the workforce and more part-time employment is a good jobs report.

in their world, maybe it is.
