Unemployment is at its lowest level since 2007.

Home prices are back at all-time highs.

Growth is picking up. The economy expanded at a 3.2% annual rate from July through September.

You are correct.

Total fake. The idea is to claim that Trump started with a wonderful situation, the only direction is down.

Unless it is Fox New Business, you are replacing fake news with other fake news.

The author of the article is obviously not stupid being a Rhodes Scholar and all. So how does she account for the 95 million jobless no longer counted on the unemployment roles.

I love how we get to just dismiss those folks when it fits the narrative.

Corrupt News Network reporting fake employment numbers in a propaganda piece trying to make obama’s economy look much better then it is. We will be hearing more of this propaganda as the dork gets closer to leaving the white house. They will try to give the dork with ears credit for the Trump economic boom.

There will be a lot of new numbers regarding employment and homelessness coming out in, say, March of next year.

No they don’t believe the crap they are spewing

They know it’s a lie.

They know that the lie is hurting the country.

They know they are co conspirators in the fundamental change of the United States and the destruction of America as we know it

It’s part of their job

They like their jobs
