You all do it. But you are the one who referenced hate this time.
Who tells you that people opposed to Trump "hate" Trump?
Rush?
Glenn?
There has to be some reason you all come up with the same cultish excuse for why people don't like your lecherous con man adulterous Dear Leader. So what is it?
Might be best to avoid encouraging those who lean toward insult instead of an intelligent exchange of opinion. Just a suggestion!
OK, go read the actual report that it was based on.
Only 13 institutions (schools) recorded a decline
Declines occurred only in non-advanced degree positions
Most of the declines were in small programs.
i.e. It had nothing to do with Trump as hard as Forbes tried to suggest otherwise.
Forbes and the author of that piece simply said this comes at a time that Trump is cracking down on immigration. Well..... he is.... Illegal Immigration.
Those are the facts. Read my original post in this topic.
Hmmm.... NASA just successfully landed it's 8th vehicle on the planet Mars. (barely given a mention in the MSM) This after being gutted by Obama for 8 years.
No other country, not Russia, not the former USSR, not any country in the EU, not China, not Japan has accomplished even a single landing.
This speaks for itself where American stands in physics, science & engineering.
(It's clear that the author of the hit piece, simply created a premise, then cherry picked some stats to "prove" it.)
(The rest of this, of course, since the OP asked, is simply going to be the usual "I Hate Trump" circle jerk that takes place here each day.)
Actually no it doesn't. Space travel is a just as much about money as science. America ranks 17th out of 40 developed countries in educational performance. And Betsy deVos' ineptitude certainly doesn't help matters any. https://rankingamerica.wordpress.com...ory/education/

I've got to sign off now, and as I do I should make clear this one article I started this thread with was only supposed to be a starter example of FACTS we can consider. The article also includes this statement. "The reasons for this decline are not yet determined, of course." At ease!
The article also includes this quote...
"Physics students want to come to the United States from all over the world because they know their educational and career opportunities here will be extraordinary. Our country's research, technology, and economy have been enormously strengthened by a positive attitude towards such immigration of students. We should continue to be a welcoming place, and to embrace open and global mobility for people."
This sound like the message Trump has been sending to the rest of the world about America lately?
PS and/or also just FYI, the number of people employed at NASA is about 18,000. Not exactly why people interested in science from other countries come to America all considered, not even a factor for the great majority anyway.
Now as Trump has had time to actually make an impact, and we can see some of those effects (rather than credit Trump with all manner of success not of his doing), there are other warning signs that beg the question, what is happening and/or what is Trump doing? Again, for better or worse all considered?
Rising U.S. Jobless Claims Are Starting to Worry Some Economists
Meanwhile, Michael Gapen of Barclays Plc said in a note that the rise in claims is “consistent with the recent increase in financial market stress and the ebbing in fiscal stimulus.” He said it may also be linked to stresses in areas such as California, New York and the industrial Midwest -- places with strong trade ties to China -- that are feeling the “effect of protectionism, actual or expected.”
Perhaps just a yellow flag, but given a growing domestic and international economy as Trump took office, significant tax cuts for corporate America and all the rest..., why are we seeing any bump in unemployment rates. We still have a lower unemployment rate than we've had in a long while, but why too no real growth in wages for average Americans?
I am looking forward to the day I see Donald Trump in handcuffs. Trump has lied to Americans, he has promised the good life, and delivered nothing. However he has made himself and other elitists much richer at the expense of working folks.
Trump's rating now 38%. I find it hard to understand why it is that high. Trump's tariffs are killing the US. Retail prices aren't just rising, they are skyrocketing. Ford and GM now reporting losses in the billions because of Trump's tariffs. Grocery prices soaring. The housing market is on it's way to the cellar. Jobs, oh yea, like Walmart for instance. Plenty of work, 28 hours a week, $11, and no medical or other benefits. GM plants closing that will also crash businesses that support them. Since Trump has been in office the national debt has increased by a trillion dollars with a projected estimate of five trillion dollars for Trump's term in office. The only ones making money are the top 10%. I believe it is safe to predict that Trump will go after Social Security and Medicare just has he has Medicaid.
Of course Trump can always take the US to war. Let's see, what country has something the US and/allies, like Saudi Arabia wants. Iran, lots of oil there. Won't it be great to see superior US air power blow up women and children on FOX? That would be so much more exciting that seeing women and children blasted with tear gas and rubber bullets.
This video clearly shows the insanity or dementia of Trump. Save the US, impeach Trump.

All concerning, no doubt, and hopefully we're not headed back toward anything like the Great Recession when we could be doing so much better without Trump's "help." Why the 38% approval rating is hard to understand until you begin reading all the reasons Trump supporters love Trump. Too many people who gravitate toward the Trump types and all he represents and/or misrepresents. Under the catch-all motto of making America great again, for anyone to choose what that means most dearly to them, regardless what actually comes of Trump's time in office. May it be no longer than one term if that long.
Or where are all the comments and examples of what Trump is ACTUALLY doing for America in tangible quantifiable ways that might help us feel otherwise? Something better than more deficit spending for NASA for example...
