For the 10's of millions of Americans whose jobs were destroyed by globalization or immigration, shit's not exactly coming up roses. If the Dems would stop calling all these people racists for 5 minutes and listen to their issues, we could probably get rid of Floppsie and his clown brigade.
Unemployment is at 4.9% which is the lowest its been in a decade.
Quoting the U3 as an argument showes you have no idea what you are talking about nor what I was talking about.

The U3? I don't know what that one letter next a number represent. It's not a quote. It's my observation after reading data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics. And how in the hell is that not related to what you're talking about?

Start here to understand the meaning of that number:

The U6 trends nearly identical to U3. The numbers are just bigger because it is creating a more holistic view. So the massive downtrend in unemployment starting in 2010 is as clear using that marker as on the U3.

Sure. But that was about beginning understanding the meaning of the statistic vs. typing "us unemployment rate" into google. The next step is to pull that number apart and begin to understand changes in those trend lines for Trump's supporters demographics.

It was his only reference to God.
One positive thing I have noticed about Trump is that he wasn't making routine God-pandering comments like most politicians do. So suffice to say that disappointed me a tad.

It's obvious that he's not very religious, but the few moments where he's tried to develop Christian-cred have been hilarious. Remember when he said the Bible was his favorite book, but then couldn't name his favorite verse. "I don't want to get into specifics" is actually something he said.
CNN website has a interesting visual.
There is an article on left side that says 'Obama: Trump's doom-and-gloom doesn't match reality' with a larger article on the right side in big bold that says 'Shooting Spree At Mall....6 reported dead in Munich; attackers on the loose'.
Have you guys seen the Facebook thing where your friends go to Trumps page and Hillary's page and then they post their friend likes for each candidate.
Most recent one I saw in my news feed was Trump 73 Hillary 11. Ideally, I would want mine to be 0 - 0.

Link me up.
It's just something a fried shares after taking the time to look on their own. Ive learned I have a lot of super conservative friends who I haven't talked to in 12 years.
