I can also say that I am the King of Spain and the strongest man in the world. That doesn't make any of it true.


The economy is working, sort of, for the very richest people. The majority of Americans continue to see little to no gains, even though the stock market was higher and unemployment is lower.

You also have to remember what President Obama inherited versus what was left for Trump. A stock market in shambles, bleeding jobs at over 700,000 per month and the Automotive industry on the brink of collapse. Trump in turn gets an economy that had grown steadily for the last 96 months, Unemployment cut down to 6 percent and a stock market close to 20,000.

and never has to back them up, even with anecdotes.

it's always "some people are saying", and then next topic.

he plays the media like a fiddle. he's pushed CNN into an adversarial position, which benefits him. demagogue.

and is wowing them. He is supporting the Dem candidates for Senator and Governor. He is covering his accomplishments compared to the GOP (minimum wage, ACA protections, good economy, Medicaid, and pointing out the GOP lies, etc.). He even used the word "LIES".
