I don't do coverups

The economy is booming.
Stock market is at all time high. (who knows their rational their up and down like a yo yo again not because of Trump )
Unemployment is lowest it’s been in decades, including blacks and Hispanics.
(pay and benefits still flat)
No wars. (still in afghanistan and Iraq and africa)
No ISIS trying to kill us. (not just because of Trump)


All true but none are reasons to see his refusal and his staff being order not to comply with subpoena from congress as acceptable ..

‘If you’re innocent, why are you taking the Fifth?’ Trump said


Its funny to see the right decide what parts of the constitution they think applies to them and what parts do not //

You've got to factor in inflation here Jim.

trump is overseeing wage hikes that outpace inflation. i completely agree with you that working people’s wages have been stagnant, that’s not the fault
if someone who has never held public office until
now, and under whose
leadership, wages are finally outpacing inflation. it’s not trumps fault that obama and
bush didn’t do as well on this issue.

So guys like you and others insist the economy is booming employments low .. I guess don't live in a worker's world. Oh I got a 3 cent raise or a 25 cent raise hooray

But my insurance has gone up my out of pocket co payments have gone up 250.00 more . My local taxes have gone up fro. Water sewer trash .. the avg Joe is not seeing this great economic growth..
wages since 2010 have declined like 9% factoring in inflation
We are playing catch up with wages while company's are are beyond caught up


I guess that's why stop and shop workers went on strike.

Stop & Shop’s parent company, Ahold Delhaize, hasn’t justified the cuts, noting that the Dutch food retail giant reported $2 billion in profits last year, and recently voted to give shareholders $880 million in dividend payments

no, liars like YOU deny that the economy is booming. don’t pretend that i have the agenda because i say the economy is booming.yiu simply cannot accept he could be doing anything well.

by the most important indicators ( GDP, unemployment, stock market, wages), things are good. i wasn’t aware that your out-of-pocket cost for your health insurance, was a more important indicator of how the economy is doing, than GDP or
unemployment. My bad.

Your state/local taxes are not a federal issue. You want low state/local taxes, move to a conservative state.

one private company having an employee strike, is also not an indicator or the national economy.

why are you so desperate to avoid
admitting that the economy is robust? what are you afraid would
happen if you said he’s helping the economy?

TDS has brought you deep into the twilight zone.

Nobody is saying that everyone is killing it. But most folks who have good jobs have benefited from this economy. To expect a champagne pocketbook with a Boone’s farm background is probably a stretch but a paycheck that supplies food,shelter,electric,cable,cell phone and many of the other comforts formerly associated with the middle class should be celebrated. Combine this with the good fortune of a pension and some vacation money and you should kick your heels together.
