Remember that the Republicans screwed up the midterms because they ignored the economy, and that people were hurting because they couldn’t find work / afford groceries / pay for their car’s gas etc. etc. etc.?
Well, then (from Bill Lehman):
Back on the election front, I see where the US Economy Report just came out, timed, “coincidentally” for just AFTER the election, showing that new job creation nearly TRIPLED predicted numbers, we added 165K new jobs in October, as well as, it turns out adding over 84K in August and September more than were reported during those months.
Isn’t it odd that when Democrats are in control, job creation numbers always have to be revised DOWN, an action reported only after the election, but when Republicans are in control, the numbers always have to be revised up, and again only after the election…
Yeah, I was kinda wondering that myself, especially when I filled up yesterday and paid $2.65 / gallon for regular unleaded.
Of course, my little “top up” grocery cart bill came to $45, but as I’ve said many times before, grocery prices never repeat never go down, so these are the times we live in.
But more to the point, there are now 165,000 people who might be able to afford to buy any groceries, as opposed to last month when they couldn’t.
And that’s all Trump’s fault.
