Jack_1968: Like I said before these haters are really obsessed with Trump they are drawn to him like he's their god.
I can say that Trump is truly their nightmare.
They should just turn around much like in the Walkaway movement and face the fact that if they love our country, they should give him credit from making it great again.
Washington (CNN Business)With the unemployment rate at its lowest level in nearly 50 years, American workers are finally starting to see their paychecks grow a little faster.
Weekly wages rose at an annualized rate of 3.3% in the third quarter, the Labor Department announced Tuesday, which beats the 2.6% increase in inflation over the same period. That's an improvement from the 2% increase in wages in the second quarter, which wasn't enough to make up for inflation...
As for Real Americans voting, we will once again see a record turnout from the silent majority of true patriots. There's a Red Wave coming!

That's fantastic. but you stops quoting at the point that would have made your Trump miracle look even worse.
"The weekly earnings measure is based on a survey that asks full-time wage and salary workers how much they usually make in a week.
Wages have been the missing piece of America's economic recovery, with flat or very slow growth depending on which measure is used. Even the White House Council of Economic Advisers only found a 1.4% increase over the past year using adjustments that take into account benefits and changes in the workforce that make wage growth look higher. "
Wow. No wonder you didn't want to mention the 1.4% increase which is FAR below the rate of inflation. That means that wages have gone down in the last year since the Tax cut that was touted as putting more money in peoples pockets. Which means that people are at a net negative for the year even with the slight increase in wages. And at the bottom of the story it mentions that layoffs have increased as well
"The number of job openings reached an all-time high of nearly 7.1 million in August, the Labor Department also reported on Tuesday. That keeps the number of unemployed workers per job opening at 0.9, which is as low as it's ever been.
The number of layoffs, however, edged up by 176,000 to 1.8 million in August. "
Yes I included the Paragraph before because I'm not afraid of facts. Like the fact that Amazon is instituting a $15 Minimum wage, which the Republicans are fighting against. All good stuff. But the Bottom line is the wage increase is not going to cover the amount of money that workers have lost in the last year since the Tax cut.

Cant talk in any thread other than a Trump one. Calls everyone else obsessed.
Also, is happy SOMEONE responded to his stupid trolling. YOu really cant live without the responses of the trolled, can you?
In response to: They should just turn around much like in the Walkaway movement
Why would you turn around to a movement full of digital Russians and no real people. Oh the Walkaway Big March is in three days. Wanna bet how many people will turn up?

That's right HL, CS has a long tradition of political posts, if wobblehead doesn't like a post the CS rule is to leave it and not cause trouble.

Still here- you just proved my point. You can't stay away. Why not go to another thread with all those lefty women who agree with you or do you realise conservatives are much more attractive and smart and you can only get some satisfaction from throwing rocks since your life has no positive influence for good. You have nothing of positive worth to offer to anyone. You have no interest in making any place great or safe.

On behalf of myself and most sane single men worldwide, can I just take this opportunity to say, "Phew".

have you looked at how Bezos slashed the other Benefits,so he could brag how he "gave" his Workers a $15.- Minimumwage?
Marc A. Thiessen As we approach the end of President Donald Trump’s first year in office, the list of extraordinary things he has done – for both good and ill – is nothing short of remarkable.
Trump inspires such deep emotions in his critics and supporters that many have struggled to objectively assess his presidency. Some are so blinded by their hatred of Trump that they refuse to acknowledge the good he has done, while others are so blinded by devotion that they overlook almost any transgression.
In my columns, I’ve tried to give Trump the credit he deserves when he does the right thing, while calling him out when he does the wrong thing. So, here is my list of the 10 best things Trump has done in his first 11 months. (In a subsequent column, I will give you my list of the 10 worst.)
10. He enforced President Barack Obama’s red line against Syria’s use of chemical weapons. When the regime of Bashar Assad used a toxic nerve agent on innocent men, women and children, Trump didn’t wring his hands. He acted quickly and decisively, restoring America’s credibility on the world stage that Obama had squandered.
9. He has taken a surprisingly tough line with Russia. Trump approved a $47 million arms package for Ukraine, sent troops to Poland’s border with Russia and imposed new sanctions on Moscow for violating the Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces Treaty.
8. He recognized Jerusalem as Israel’s capital. Four American presidents promised to do it, but only one actually did. This is why the American people elected Trump. He does what he promises to do, for better or for worse – in this case, definitely for the better. Even Jeb Bush tweeted his approval.
7. He withdrew from the Paris climate agreement. After George W. Bush pulled out of the disastrous Kyoto treaty, U.S. emissions went down faster than much of Europe. The same will be true for Trump’s departure from the Paris accord. Combined with his approval of the Keystone XL pipeline, and opening the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge to exploration, Trump is helping usher in a new age of American energy development.
6. He got NATO allies to kick in $12 billion more toward our collective security. Decades of pleading by the Bush and Obama administrations failed to get NATO allies to meet their financial commitments to the alliance, but Trump’s tough talk and reticence to affirm America’s Article V commitment did the trick. NATO is stronger as a result.
5. He has virtually eliminated the Islamic State’s physical caliphate. Trump removed the constraints Obama placed on our military and let it drive the terrorists from their strongholds.
4. He admitted he was wrong on Afghanistan and reversed Obama’s disastrous withdrawal. In a rare admission, Trump declared: “My original instinct was to pull out . . . But all my life, I’ve heard that decisions are much different when you sit behind the desk in the Oval Office. . . . A hasty withdrawal would create a vacuum for terrorists.”
3. He enacted historic tax and regulatory reform that has unleashed economic growth. Trump signed the first comprehensive tax reform in three decades and removed the wet blanket of Obama-era regulations smothering our economy. We are now heading into our third consecutive quarter of above 3 percent growth.
2. He is installing conservative judges who will preside for decades. With his appointment of Neil M. Gorsuch, Trump secured a conservative majority on the Supreme Court, and he is moving at record pace to fill the federal appeals courts with young conservative judges.
1. He, not Hillary Clinton, was inaugurated as president. Trump delivered the coup de grace that ended the corrupt, dishonest Clinton political machine.
