It's not an "average" it's the Median wage or the wage of the middle wage earner.Under Trump, wages have climbed nicely, that's for sure!E
Who told you weekly wages never climbed like they have under Trump?When Obama left office he estimated that future unemployment would be between 4.5% to 6.5% with 5.5% the most likely outcome for the next ten years.They counted unemployment the same way they’ve always counted it. Obama’s documented a consistent history of job growth that didn’t really change under Trump.No, Obama didn’t stop “counting all the unemployed”. That’s one of those zombie lies that was told over and over again and no one bothers to look at if it’s true.Trump didn't inherit the Great recession. Remember? He inherited the Obama recovery package, which Trump had nothing to do with, and unemployment was already very low. So, you aren't showing us anything Trump has done. You are showing us Obama's economy.Unemployment today is lower than the average for Obama/Biden's first term.Fake News1) Trump is not a traitor.Reporting to a president is not the same thing as obeying. They obey the Constitution. They do not obey a traitor.They still report to the President. If you believe he's free to disobey the president, then you're suffering brain damage. It's hard to believe TDS morons are so stupid they haven't got the slightest clue about how our government works.Trump is his boss.Anyone who worked for a private company and stabbed his boss in the back would also lose his job.Anonymous sources, douchebag. She didn't backup jack shit.No one believes that fake news outlets that hate him.nobody believes trtrump outside his deplorable baseLOL...Derp....No one believes that fake news outlets that hate him

Trump attacks Fox News reporter after she backs up key details of Atlantic story
President Trump went after Fox News reporter Jennifer Griffin after she backed up some details of a bombshell story from The Atlantic that said he had referred to slain American sold…www.google.com
If it was just one anonymous source, you'd have some weight behind your sniveling...but it was MULTIPLE sources. He said those things and you know it.
How gullible do you people need to show us you are?....
Let's reveal the sources then we can have this discussion...Until then, it is made up gossip....Nothing more, nothing less.
So they can be attacked by Trumpsters? So they can lose their jobs and have death threats leveled at them by Trumptards day and night? No need. You know it's true.
Hey...moron......the only ones who lose their jobs are normal Americans who stand up for America.......left wingers don't have to fear anything.........as we see when they burn, loot, beat and murder Americans and then are released on bail from funds donated by joe biden and kamala harris.
Tell that to Lt Col Vindman...
The mistake you made is misidentifying who Lt Col Vindman’s boss is.
No he's not. The American people are his boss. Trump's too. Trump has forgotten that, if he ever knew it.They take an oath to the constitution, asshole.The US army takes orders from the President, dumbass.Trump ain’t no king. Lt Col Vindman is an officer in the US Army. Not the Trump Army.Trump is his boss.Anyone who worked for a private company and stabbed his boss in the back would also lose his job.Anonymous sources, douchebag. She didn't backup jack shit.No one believes that fake news outlets that hate him.nobody believes trtrump outside his deplorable baseLOL...Derp....No one believes that fake news outlets that hate him

2) The do obey him. Trump could have had his ass discharged with the snap of the fingers..
You're a colossal dumbfuck.
1. Yes, he is. From his invitation to Russia, if you're listening, to his attempts to undermine NATO, Donald Trump's foreign policy has benefitted Russian and undermined US standing and respect throughout the world. He has yet to confront Vladimir Putin over Russian bounties on US troops. When US intelligence services are afraid to brief the President on Russian interference or malfeasance because of his anger towards any bad new about Putin, it speaks volumes.
Last but not least, when the Senate refused to remove Trump from office, the first world leader he called was Vladimir Putin. They've had numerous phone calls since. About what?
2. Trump is the Commander in Chief, but he could not have anyone's ass "discharged" without cause. And has we have seen with those that Trump has fired or forced from any office, much less the military, there is a price which the state must pay from Trump abuses the powers to fire people that he has.
Even an enlisted man has the right to refuse orders to break the law or go against the Constitution. Even if that order comes from Donald Trump. Those in the armed forces take their oath to defend the Constitution. They don't take a loyalty oath to the President. No one is above that oath, not even the President.
Moron....you can lie all day long but nothing Trump has done has benefited Russia..in fact, he is the most anti-Russian President we have had in a long time.....as obama kissed putins ass over and over again......
You believe that because Trump told you he is the most anti-Russian President ever, but like everything else Trump tells you, it's a lie. As always with you clowns, the facts tell the real story. Trump keeps announcing sanctions on Russia, but he has yet to impose those sanctions.
But my favourite "Trump is not an agent of Russia" story is Trump inviting members of the GRU to the CIA to discuss ways of preventing foreign interference in your elections. He was even willing to lift sanctions in order to make this trip possible. The CIA told Trump to go fuck himself.
oh yeah, only lefties have the truth....tell me another one
No one has ever said that, but what we have said is that Democrats have no need to lie about their policies, or to refuse to accept the blame for their own failures. Republicans HAVE to lie about their record because it's so dismal...
Here is the indigestible truth for the Democrats. Donald Trump has had the most successful first term of any president in memory, maybe ever.
Friday brought the news that we’d added 1.7 million jobs, against an expected 1.3 million, and that unemployment—still artificially high because the Democrats won’t let many Americans go back to work—edged down to 8.4 percent. In June, a canny pal noted that if the market held steady at around 25,000 and unemployment got down to 9 percent by Election Day, Trump would likely be reelected. Here we are two months out and the market is well north of 28,000 (it went well above 29,000 last week) and unemployment is falling.
Trump's policies brought unemployment down to the lowest rate in decades, Among black and other minority populations, it was the lowest ever—ever. Wages, especially wages at the lower end, were rising, prescription drug prices were falling, and manufacturing was flooding back to the United States, a direct result of Trump’s America First trade policies. He came to office promising to lose two regulations for every new one enacted, but has managed to lose nearly 20 regulations for every new one. His exploitation of America’s energy resources have not only made the country energy independent, they have made us a net exporter of energy.
Trump has made extraordinary progress on other fronts as well, from his hundreds of judicial appointments to reducing the flow of illegal immigration by 90 percent. On the cultural front, he has defanged the tyranny of Title IX despotism in colleges and universities and, just a day or two ago, he issued an executive order instructing the Office of Management and Budget to “identify and eliminate any trace of ‘critical race theory’ in the federal government.”
It would be difficult to overstate the significance of this order. Critical race theory is the pseudo-academic version of identity politics, lending a suitable polysyllabic veneer of obfuscation to the brutish Marxoid and America-hating ideologies of Antifa, Black Lives Matter, and kindred sites of festering discontent.
Where is GDP growth and unemployment today?
Who is President....
The mid-line GDP estimate right now is over 20% with the Atlanta Fed now-casting it at estimated at 29.6% annualized growth.
Previous to the current quarter, the best quarter ever recorded was 16.7% in 1950. Small wonder that voters consistently give Trump better marks on the Economy than Biden, Trump's just damn good on the economy.
I just love how the Obama acolytes talk about the economy in terms of how nothing was ever Obama’s fault. When he was in office it was always something else to blame for his “new normal”... Bush’s fault, the weathers fault, or just anything that shifted blame for the Obama Biden failure, and stagnation. Now that Trump has brought back business, lowered unemployment to record levels, and scrapped regulation that was strangling this nation, libs want to take retroactive credit....Sorry, that dog won’t hunt.
Obama's "new normal" was not related to presidential policies, it was a global slow down in productivity gains which resulted in low GDP growth. Unemployment improved steadily during Obama's tenure.
Trump came into office, did all the things that Republicans said would dramatically improve the economy and nothing really changed. GDP Growth was still slow. Unemployment improved at the same steady rate. His policy changes had basically no real effect on any of this.
They were the same economy, but Obama's was a disaster and Trump's was the best it ever could be. It's like there two different realities.
No, that's not correct. The only reason that Obama's economy looked like it was holding, is because they stopped counting all the unemployed.
All one had to do was to drive to their local strip mall, or downtown retail area to see all of the vacant shops.
No, its absolutely documented.

Trump not only blew away the most likely estimate, he blew away the BEST estimate with an average of below 4%.
But, bringing it to the Households. Household balance sheets have NEVER been stronger, and weekly wages have never climbed like they have under Trump.
That puts you in the difficult position of trying to tell folks with less debt service expense and much more money in their pocket, that they are worse off. It just makes you look silly and uninformed, but, don't let that stop you.
