Now Trump is saying Rudy doesn't have his facts straight. Pretty funny.

And it's only Friday.

Don't forget, unemployment is down to 3.9%, a 17 year low.

Or did i misunderstand something

I think it should be clear for everyone

If the elected person in charge is disliked and it goes well with the economy and employment, then it is because of something else and not because of the politics the elected are running.

If the elected is popular-then everything that goes well is because of this person. Anything that may go not so well is the others fault, not the elected.

Marcus you have it right. If Obama was President now he would have gotten his fourth sainthood for the economy

Couples of weeks ago I asked if there was any really hardc....(not writing the fully word)official trump supporters.

Today in the weekly "The world according to Trump", I was told, Roseanne Barr is a truly Trump supporter.

Fearing the news is too boring, Ron says, “I just don’t know why we have to tell the people what they need to hear. Why can’t we just tell them what they want to hear?”

Remember when the ratings-obsessed news craze came under fire by real-life funny anchorman Jon Stewart, who blasted the absurdity of CNN’s incessant media coverage of missing Malaysian airlines flight MH370. Black holes, supernatural phenomena, and psychics were all speculated on having a role in the disappearance. Mentioning the fact that Fox News, another 24-hour news network, also criticized CNN’s over-coverage, Stewart quipped, “You better be careful, O’Reilly! Or Fox’s coverage of CNN’s over-coverage will be covered… by CNN!” And then showed another clip of that exact thing: CNN commentators responding to Fox News’s coverage of their over-coverage. The entire thing would have been funny if it wasn’t so painful.
