Schumer wanted the wall before and backed $8 billion for it. Now that Trump is prez and the leftists have completely taken over the dem party, he has done a 180 and wants open borders and ICE eliminated.
Trump crushed them yesterday saying security for The People is more important than a shutdown. BINGO. And, it fully exposed these whackjobs as wanting Trump to lose more than wanting America to win.
Trump approval rating matches Obama's at same point of presidency...
Quite an achievement given the unrelenting, 24/7, merciless bashing and completely biased ‘reporting’ by the MSM.

Eh, it's probably a little petty, but there's nothing fundamentally wrong with that.

Good. It's a waste of money and the majority of them deserve nothing.
So Trump has declared war on Christmas?

Yes. Plus he knows that in the metoo age, a Christmas party is a time bomb waiting to happen.

No, but he did just get another win in the ‘trade war’ – China buying soybeans etc.

Nah. Only if you are a Democrat and cancel the Christmas party. It would be about being PC or catering to snowflakes or something.
If you're a Republican and do it, then you're just a red-, white-, and blue-blooded patriot who's sick of the "lame stream" media's shit.

Agreed. When I was a boy, this country meant something. Now, well, now it's just...HEY GET OFF MY LAWN YOU DAMNED KIDS! These damned kids with their crazy rocking and rolling.
Manufacturing Job Openings Reach All-Time High in October.
Manufacturing job openings reached a new all-time high (522,000) in the latest numbers from the Department of Labor…
Amazing how good all this Russian collusion has been for the American workforce.
Wow, the Post praising Trump – a sign of the apocalypse.

Trump Is Gaining Allies As He Pressures China To Reform. The Washington Post (12/14, Lynch) reported that “after almost a year of going it alone, President Trump finds himself with a surprising weapon in his trade confrontation with China: allies.” The Post added, “Pressure from Europe and Japan is amplifying the president’s vocal complaints about Chinese trade practices that he says discriminate against foreign companies and threaten U.S. economic growth – as fresh economic data Friday in Beijing showed the economy slowing more than expected.” According to the Post, “Administration officials say Trump deserves credit for driving a harder line toward Beijing at home and abroad. Attacking Chinese protectionism now has bipartisan support in Washington; Germany and the United Kingdom joined the United States this year in tightening limits on Chinese investment.” |
By the way, the average American has received yet another ‘pay increase’ with gas now around $1.95 / gallon. The Trump energy policy has helped unleash our independence and economic wherewithal.

I bet you said that both times the gas prices crept below $2 while Obama was in office too, huh?

You mean when he ground the economy to a halt causing demand to dry up and prices to fall? Yeah, I remember that.

So, you do agree, then, that just pointing to gas prices as an indicator of a president's tenure is ridiculously simplistic?

No; as everyone on here with your talent level understands, I am pointing out the good that comes from policies that are conducive to economic growth and energy development and independence. If sub-$2 gas occurred from ’08-’16, it was for the wrong reasons, unaffordable for the millions without work, and unnecessary for the businesses idled.

Umm ... you just said 'no', and then you agreed with my point that just pointing to the gas prices themselves as an indicator (ie. without context) isn't nuanced enough.
If you believe the nuances exist (that all drops in gas prices aren't equal), AND that those nuances are correlated to the short-term gas prices, a notably volatile metric, then perhaps that's what you should articulate, instead of just listing the gas price and calling it winning.
