[ So where is the economy now, in relationship to them? The short answer is, we think it's close. The economy has come a long way since the financial crisis. As you know, the crisis marked the start of a very deep recession. It destroyed nearly 9 million jobs, and it's been a long, slow slog to recover from it. Unemployment peaked at 10 percent late in 2009, a level unseen for more than 25 years, and didn't move below 8 percent for nearly three years. ]

Lies. There hasn't ever been any "recovery". There are more part time jobs now, thanks in large part to Obamacare. Not that I expected anything of value from her nor her predecessor anyways.

It’s about time to start raising rates. The Dems are hoping that pulls the rug out of Trump’s economy, but it won’t. Trump will do enough things to more than make up for it.

Crook Yellen will raise rates, thus increasing borrowing costs, interest due on the debt, and increasing the deficit.

Media will try and blame Trump.

Yellen needs to resign Friday, pack her bags and take a long trip.. anywhere.
