Everything that's working right for America now, all in one article about America's resurgence compared to other countries...from a Canadian newspaper.

Quote:
"...In fact, the economy of the United States is astoundingly strong: full employment, an expanding work force, negligible inflation and about three per cent economic growth. And it is a broad economic recovery, not based on service industries as in the United Kingdom (where London handles most of Europe’s financial industry, while most of British industry has fled), and not based largely on the fluctuating resources markets as has often been Canada’s experience. In the eight years of president Obama, the United States lost 219,000 manufacturing jobs; in the two years of Trump, the country has added 477,000 manufacturing jobs. This was not supposed to be possible, and this time, unlike in the great Reagan boom, it cannot be dismissed by the left (and it was false in the eighties) as a profusion of “hamburger flippers, dry cleaners and people delivering pizza,” (all necessary occupations)."

Shove it. What a great way to summarize how Trump and co. feels about anyone who isn't a part of his base.

tRump has 24% approval for his shut down.

If the economy stumbles as a result of this and his trade wars, look for him to sink into the teens.

MAGA and all that jive.

Why can't the Dems ever give Trump credit for anything?
Obama started the economy going after the Great Recession and Trump is keeping it running strong. What is wrong with saying that but no some Dems just can't admit it while some are actually hoping for a crash so they can blame Trump.



America is rolling right along in many ways but what is it stalled out on right now ? Border security. Trump wants to keep people from entering the country illegally and becoming a drain on our resources. Estimates of the cost to keep our illegal population is 90 Billion per year. I highly doubt that the illegals are putting that much back into our economy. It is just bad economics so why don't the Dems care? Why do they want an underclass of people living in the shadows and sucking on our economy?



America is a special place and it needs to be protected. At night we all take shelter behind 4 walls and we lock our doors so when we wake up the next morning our loved ones and precious items are safe.

America is our home, the economy is good so why are the Dems trying to wreck it?

If you somehow think this Presidency has been a success, you have a very low bar. It has been a disaster from day one and only gets worse by the hour.

I'll correct your thread title for you, OP: Kudos for Putin's America.

Why do Reps act as if the economy is the only measure of a country?

What about things like:

Average lifespan?

Infant mortality rate?

Healthcare costs?

Involvement in asinine wars of choice?

Etc., etc., etc. .................................................. ......

The Dems idea of a good economy is one where everyone is dependent on them, government "creates jobs" and taxes everyone to the point of no economic growth. This is a good thing for democrats. Spending money on government programs is democrats idea of safety and security and everyone eats and lives for "free".
