Unemployment rate was unchanged at a near 50-year low of 3.7 percent. Annual wage growth topped 3 percent for the first time in nine years

Jobs not Mobs.

October Surprise: U.S. Added More Than 1,000 Manufacturing Jobs a Day, Best Since 1998
October was a surprisingly strong month for jobs overall, with the economy adding 250,000 jobs. That far exceeded expectations of 190,000.

The strong growth of manufacturing comes after widespread predictions that trade disputes and tariffs on metals would weigh on domestic manufacturing. Instead, domestic manufacturing is booming.

The job growth in autos and machinery, heavy users of the tariffed steel and aluminum, indicate these have not been hit by the tariffs. Machinery manufacturing employment is up 4.5 percent from a year ago, outpacing the rate of growth for the broader economy. Transportation manufacturing jobs have grown by 3.6 percent.

This guy is a fake blake man. Just playing R's for the money.

Now NBC journalist are claiming the "immigrant caravan" is a campaign gimmick, George Soros is a great guy and you're racist if you disagree.

Still acting as an echo chamber for far-right conspiracy theories I see.
Still waiting on that list of countries that Soros allegedly bankrupted from you.
On the other hand we could talk about Goldman Sachs, that is very well represented in the current administration.
Hope you're making preparations for the next financial crisis, because your leaders are paving the way for it like there is no tomorrow. Hints: reckless spending, massive deficits, loosening of environmental protections, tax cuts for the rich, dismantling of national health care etc

I could point out stuff like:

but reality not a friend of Trump supporters

-------------------------------
"dismantling of national health care etc"

This Gillium/Desantis vote is going to be tight. Obama on right now with Gillium, talking about health care, last thing the Republicans want to talk about. They rather scare their supporters thinking there are aliens around every corner out to get them.

This clown, about Iran sanctions, day before midterms:

of course, that's asking for more memes:

The earlier stuff about Lemon and white men, I guess that went over your heads the point he was making. Trump pins 1 guy because he's an illegal. So if you're an illegal, Muslim etc. it matters but:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_mass_shootings_in_the_United_States

Just look at the recent mass shootings.
Pittsburgh synagogue shooting 11 dead - white male
Sutherland Springs church shooting 27 dead - white male
2017 Las Vegas shooting 59 dead - white male

Non-Whites Only | South Africa (2018)

NYT, WaPo, CNN, MSNBC... Have you written any articles on this?

But let us forget the city of Chicago.....
Blacks killing blacks....
for that would destroy the MSM attack on white guys as terrorists...

Lemon was talking about who is the biggest domestic terror threat here in America.

List domestic terrorism acts since Trump came into office, followed by who did them. Is he wrong?

Trump always focuses on non-white, see his recent Twitter pin. Because he cares about getting votes by scaring whites. Again, see his lying about 3% showing up, when it was 76%.

 

[iowadawg]

Lemon, who hates whites.
Who has a white boyfriend.....

Again, where were all you guys when Obama was lying, anti-white,,,,blah blah blah

Oh, it is just fun to do as the DNC says and attack TRUMP at all times,

Why in the main I usually just ignore the noise of the left and all who speaketh from that side.

That doesn't make sense. You say he hates whites, but has a white boyfriend? I didn't even know that. But if he actually hated whites, he wouldn't have a white boyfriend.

Again, he was talking about domestic terrorism. Like I said, actually make a list, followed by who carried it out. I haven't seen anybody prove him wrong on this subject.

Synagogue shooting, white. Church shooting, white. Las Vegas shooting, white. Charlottesville murder, white. Guy who shot Scalise, white. So most of the domestic terrorism since Trump took office has been by whites. That's just the reality.

Shooting happened before Trump's speech. So definitely his fault.

1) Caravan is a the word the media uses. 5K people seems to be the best estimate. More groups organizing and marching.

2) I've given you the information on Soros. Your so dam smart, you should get your ass over too google and prove me wrong.

3) I don't know whats worse, the US debt or scummy liberals hoping my country crashes.

Still acting as an echo chamber for far-right conspiracy theories I see.

The same rhetoric also gives authoritarian countries more excuses to crack down on the free press. At the same time the US is not going to scold them for their abuses since promotion of human rights is no longer a part of foreign policy. It's quite the opposite, Trump has repeatedly praised despots like Duterte, Putin but trashed America's closest allies: Canada, UK, Germany and others.
His disdain of democracy is blatant, so the despots seize the opportunity. Trump is a godsend to them.

Thus the US contributes to lowering the bar for everyone worldwide. I know it sounds like US-bashing (again), but words and deeds have consequences, not just for yourself but others too.

You so full of sh*t.

No, I don't want your country to crash. But I am afraid it is on the wrong track but I not responsible for that.
You on the other hand did everything to achieve that outcome. You voted for it. Who are you going to blame for your mistakes ?

You are gloating about the strong economy and low unemployment in the face of bankruptcy. I don't think you are ready for what is coming.
At least Trump has been honest on one thing: he said he would run the country like one of his businesses. He's gone bankrupt multiple times. Now he delivers. Fasten your seatbelt.

Going to break it off with this great song from 29 years back:

BREAKING: This is quite a read. Woman who claimed Justice Kavanaugh raped her now admits they’ve never even met. She’s been referred to DOJ/FBI for investigation and could soon be in serious legal trouble.
