I was crystal clear. Your personal comprehension problems are not my problem."You are claiming that the fact that a politician made an accusation before he took office, and then did not apply the same rules once he took office, proves that it was a lie before.""Making a point about the number of people not working vs the official unemployment number is valid."Bluster and hyperbole are euphemisms to excuse his behavior. Saying real unemployment is 42% is not hyperbole. It’s a lie.
The economy was working for people. Jobs were increasing. Unemployment was down. Wages were rising. There is no fundamental difference between the economy then and now.
Saying the economy wasn’t a fundamental campaign issue is pure revisionism.
1. Making a point about the number of people not working vs the official unemployment number is valid. Calculating a new number from that, and saying that that is the "real" unemployment number is not a lie. If he had calculated that number and presented it, without explaining what it was, that would have been a lie.
2.How versed are you on the wage stagnation issue?
If that were true, Impeached Trump would be saying that now.
Also, suggesting the unemployment rate was as high as 42% is not making a point of his that many people are not working, it's a lie. The unemployment rate is based on how many people want to work but are not. Including everyone not working by choice and claiming they're driving the unemployment rate up is a lie.
LOL!!!! You are hilariously lacking in self awareness.
You are claiming that the fact that a politician made an accusation before he took office, and then did not apply the same rules once he took office, proves that it was a lie before.
When it is obvious that it is completely possible that he was telling the truth before and now does not want to admit any shortcomings on his watch.
IRONICALLY, by your own delusional and unfair standard of what constitutes a "lie", this omission on you part, makes YOU A LIAR TOO.
Except that no one calls you on it, because everyone knows that libs like you, just say shit, and don't mean shit by it.
Oddly similar to the hyperbole that Trump does. Except that you demand to be taken seriously, and you are far, far meaner.
LOL
You're such an imbecile, you probably do think that's what I said.
No, dumbfuck, I didn't say his lie was applying it under Obama but not himself. I said it's a lie because the unemployment rate measures the percentage of unemployed (by BLS definition) folks who don't have a job while he lied and said that figure was 42%. 42% was some other figure, not the unemployment rate.
I also pointed out his hypocrisy for using that 42% metric for Obama but not himself.
Savvy?
"IRONICALLY, by your own delusional and unfair standard of what constitutes a "lie", this omission on you part, makes YOU A LIAR TOO."
Oh? I'm a liar because you couldn't understand what I said? You're delirious.
Yeah, we covered that. And I made my response.
YOu are kind of all over the place. You want to try to make your point a little more clearly?
