  2. I am not a Trump supporter but the economy has improved under Trump. Unemployment, the stock market and housing have all improved since he has been president but you would never know it from media coverage.
    They like to downplay anything positive about Trump because of their liberal bias it but if the economy was bad it would be front page news.

  4. ^^^Thanks for that in depth economic analysis. Your eagle-eye sharpness about all things financial has been comprehensive. Can you tell me which of Trump's policy initiatives has been the most beneficial to our economy? See that's a trick question, because there have been none. Can you explain the difference in the economy under Obama and now under Trump? Because what you are seeing is really a continuation of Obama's economic policy. Did you know or realize that we are actually close to full employment? That any gains from here on out will be minimal? I bet you didn't. Sure the stock market is up, as it was for the 8 years under Obama. Can you specifically cite any of Trump's economic policy wins?.....(crickets). How's the coal industry doing? That was one of his big ideas member? He's bring back coal miner's jobs! Ugh...let's see mines are closed and they are all out of work. It's a dead industry, but it sounds good to rubes like you doesn't it?

  8. Trump should have known that a state packed full of boons would never have a low unemployment rate. Sheesh!

  9. Actually @ 10:56 yours is a somewhat misleading comment.
    Boons are not "unemployed", that word implies that they once actually worked, but in reality they are now in the fourth or fifth generation that has never known anyone who ever had a job.

    I do not include the majority of African Americans in the category of "boons", the vast majority of them are a hard working as anyone else, and often accomplish that in the face of difficulties others do not have to face.

    Your "Boon", on the other hand, has no conception of what the word "work" means, and I for one feel that the label "boon" needs to not be restricted to any one ethnic group, but should apply to a much broader range of worthless lumps of "protoplasm in shoes".

    We could never have guessed that, just as we could never have deduced that "OT" is short for "Sh1t-eating Little Halfwit SNOT"!
