The Inevitable New The Inevitable Trump Mocking Thread

I don't know, at least Hillary wouldn't be demanding everyone deny what they saw, and pretend they didn't just watch him get confused and talk about the storm causing damage in Alabama for a 6th day in a row now? A couple more days and it will have gone on longer then the inauguration crowd size, don't believe the photos, debate.

There were fewer people unemployed in America in August 2019 than there were in August 1975 when we were just shy of 69 million fewer people in the economy.

I graduated from Norco High School in 1975. I am now eligible to collect Social Security. And there are fewer Americans unemployed today than the summer I graduated high school.

If this doesn’t shock you, then nothing will.

Economies can be measured by many things, the number of people who want a job but can’t find one is perhaps the most important political and human measure.

To provide a shorter time frame, there are 4.2 million more Americans in the civilian labor force since January 2017, when Donald Trump became President, and there are 1.5 million fewer Americans who are unemployed today than then. Even as the labor participation rate (percentage of people 16 and older who are in the workforce) has risen from 62.9 percent to 63.2 percent.

A total 5.7 million more jobs have been created.

What we are witnessing is almost an economic miracle. More people are working today at 157.8 million than at any time in history. Fewer people are unemployed this August than in any August since 1974. The last time fewer Americans were unemployed during this month, the pet rock was a popular gift, the Godfather Part II and Blazing Saddles were the two most popular movies and the Vietnam War was still raging.

For all the economic doom and gloom Eeyores, try to find your inner Tigger, because America is working, wages continue to climb, and inflation remains low. And the economy is defying the gravitational expectations of the regular business cycle, largely because Americans are coming back into the workforce; and in spite of the constant negative Nancy news, they are positive about the future.

One final nail in the partisan pessimists down talking the economy coffin is the simple fact that the unemployment rate of 3.7 percent marks the fifteenth time in 18 months that the unemployment rate has been below 4 percent. The last time prior to this run that the unemployment rate was below 4 percent was in January of 1970, almost 50 years ago.

As proof, the much disliked Transportation Security Administration (TSA) with their intrusive blue gloves, reportedthat the nine busiest days in their history occurred this summer. Note to CNBC: People don’t decide to travel by plane when they believe that their incomes are in jeopardy. Instead they do the staycation which became so popular during the Obama era.

The simple fact is that Americans are not only working but they are making more money today than they have in the past. The household median income rose to a record $61,372 in 2017, as more Americans are benefitting from wage gains earned. The 2018 number will be reported in October, and given the on-going 3.2 percent year over year increases reported by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, it is obvious that 2018 and 2019 will have been even better years for American’s pocketbooks.

With all of the down talking of the economy by political and economic pundits, it is important for people to understand that what they are experiencing in the personal lives is what others are — this economy rocks. If you want a job, you can get a job, and you are getting paid more for the same work today than you were last year without inflation eating away all or more of your wage gains.

Yet, problems still remain. Opioid and other addictions continue to have a hollowing out effect on our workforce. As large as the labor force is, and it’s never been larger, there would be about 6.9 million more people aged 16-64 in the workforce today if the labor participation rate for that age group was the same today as it was in 1997. This addiction crisis is also fueling a homeless problem which HUD Secretary Ben Carson is striving to address.

Here’s the good news, that number used to be 9.7 million, meaning 2.8 million working age adults have reentered the labor force and have jobs, with 16-64-year-old labor participation rising from 72.7 percent in 2015 to 73.8 percent in 2018. The restored hope that this represents is the untold story of renewal that is hidden by a media animus toward Donald Trump that refuses to deliver good news.

But even in a time of unprecedented low unemployment rates, work still remains to be done to bring people who have been left behind, like those with disabilities, out of the shadows and into the workforce. The fact that almost 36 million Americans remain on food assistance programs shows that the economy has not yet lifted enough boats to self-sufficiency. The fact that 8.1 million fewer people are on food assistance than when President Trump took office shows that our nation is heading in the right direction.

America should be celebrating the Trump economic success story, and judging by the summer vacation travel reports, it appears that the people get it, even if the media doesn’t.
 
“Murderers and rapers”

An illegal alien has been convicted for murdering a three-year-old girl on Halloween in 2016 in Los Angeles, California.

This week, 37-year-old Ricardo Augusto Utuy from Guatemala was convicted by a jury of murdering three-year-old Ruby Vasquez in 2016 on Halloween, an incident that her mother, Maria Rodriguez, witnessed.


After failing to find a babysitter, Rodriguez and her husband brought their daughter Ruby with them to work at a downtown Los Angeles clothing factory on Halloween day three years ago.

While working, Rodriguez saw her daughter running towards her as Utuy ran after her. Prosecutors said Utuy had stabbed Ruby multiple times after walking to give her father a cookie. Once being taken to the hospital, Ruby was pronounced dead.

“She was the baby of the house,” Rodriguez told NBC Los Angeles in a 2017 interview. “… I’m not someone who can forgive. Only God knows.”

A law enforcement official confirmed to Breitbart News that Utuy had been living in California — a sanctuary state that shields illegal aliens from deportation — as an illegal alien and went by aliases such as Jaun Perez and Ricardo Renoj.

Rodriguez was also convicted in the trial for attempting to murder a factory co-worker in March 2016 by stabbing her.

The illegal alien’s sentencing is set for September 23, as he faces the death penalty after failing to prove that he was mentally insane, a defense often used by illegal aliens on trial for murder.

Trump is trying to strip away California's right to set its own standards on air pollution

Donald Trump’s efforts to roll back standards for both fuel consumption and vehicle efficiency haven’t generated jobs for workers, profits for companies, or any savings to consumers. But they have generated a huge amount of confusion—which is expected to continue as the White House tries to take away authority of the state of California that is written into federal law.

When the Clean Air Act was written, it included a special provision that California had the right to set its own standards for vehicle efficiency and emissions, so long as those standards were at least as tough as those of the federal government. The provision was made in recognition that conditions and the sheer scale of cities such as Los Angeles could require tougher standards. In fact, the smog then plaguing California cities was a big force behind why there is a Clean Air Act. Other states can choose to follow either the California standard or the federal standard.

At some points in the past, this has led to the United States having two standards, and anyone purchasing a car over a decade ago may have run into models that were advertised as meeting California emissions rules. But for many manufacturers it was simply cheaper and easier to meet California’s standards—especially since those standards were often similar to rising standards in Europe and other markets.

Under President Obama, the problem was solved by an agreement that essentially united the standards, setting federal levels that were tough enough to satisfy California regulators and bringing the whole nation into a single standard. That system satisfied both states and manufacturers. So, naturally, Donald Trump set out to break it.

After Trump rolled back the CAFE standards, it broke the unity between California and federal standards. Trump seemed to think that automakers would jump at the chance to burn more gas and pump out more emissions. But rather than celebrate Trump’s actions, the companies immediately began negotiating with California over new standards. At the same time, more than a dozen states elected to follow the standard being defined by California.

The way that the White House is trying to sell this is clear enough. It’s presenting California’s standards as expensive and a case of a state trying to “impose its failed policies on the rest of the country.” Except that those standards have played a tremendous role in cleaning up California’s air, and consumers are already getting cars that meet those standards. This is one of the great success stories of environmental regulation making a positive difference for millions of Americans.

But the worst language is being saved for the automakers. Trump seemed genuinely taken aback at their choice to do what’s both the right thing and the best thing for them in terms of producing cars that can be marketed to the world. The acting director of the White House Office of Management and Budget dismissed them as “a handful of irresponsible automakers” who are “aiding California’s radical agenda.”

The radical agenda here is to keep regulations close to what they were before Trump set out to wreck them. And the handful of automakers are more or less everyone.

The idea of smashing California’s primacy on auto emissions is one of those things that is celebrated by the same right-wing sites that are convinced America is being held back by things like the Endangered Species Act. Which makes it almost certain that the DOJ will sue to end California’s rights.

But what grounds they will use to end a rule that was created with the recognition that it could cause higher vehicle prices, because that was a necessary cost, isn’t clear.

It's interesting to note that you are posting a few articles now and then critical of trumpism. Or maybe you hadn't noticed?
 
Did you read the article? Lol!

So a flip of the switch takes us back to......?
 
Sort of like the big bru-ha about the size is his inauguration, these Stalinesque demands that everyone pretend his mistakes away... are very strange to me.
Besides those blinded by partisan politics, who cares about the size and number of the inauguration?
The numbers below are much more meaningful....oddly, the left wants to talk about the last inauguration...
"There were fewer people unemployed in America in August 2019 than there were in August 1975 when we were just shy of 69 million fewer people in the economy."
 
Coal is back...!

on the brink of extinction...

Since Trump took office, 51 coal plants have shut down, more than Obama's entire first term. Eight coal companies have filed for bankruptcy.

At least O'Bummer is going to jail. We'll always have that!!

Goodnight Paulie Manafort...

So how many point has unemployment dropped this year? 2% or something like that I would guess...
And yet at the same time we also rang up $2 Trillion in debt last year also. Which I guess also means those jobs came at a cost of $1.3 Million per job created. Hmm...

I just think we can do better. I think jobs are important, but that's a ripoff.
