More great economic news for Americans so you focus on the tabloids while the American people focus on real issues, the economy and national security

Cool. Celebrations (or lack there of) can be had once terms are set and we can determine what this means in actuality.

Since you equate "results" with lies I can see why you like Trump. His skills in that area are unprecedented. No President in history has lied about his results more than Trump.

Right, official results are lies in the liberal world

3 PLUS million more employed since Obama left office, 1 million more part time employees working full time, and double the GDP are certainly results to celebrate but not in the liberal world where everyone is miserable and always complaining

You mean lying about a deal that does not exist.? Yes that is a first for an American President. For Trump it is just another day.

So when the deal is official will you do what you always do, ignore it and continue to attack Trump? Is there anything he can do to earn your support? Jobs increase? NO, GDP growth? No Trade deficit reduction NO!, Says a lot about you and your ideology

I was referring to the article about the trade deficit discussions with China.

You mean when hell freezes over? No I have no confidence that any "deals" Trump makes will be beneficial to anyone but himself and his family. The fact that nothing Trump does or has done clues you in on that says volumes about you. Tribalism is not a pretty thing.
As far as what can Trump do to change my opinion. He can admit his corruption and incompetence and resign immediately.

Of course it is accurate but you fail to realize that none of Kenyan muslim's job gains count. History started in Jan. 2017 making Trump unmatched in all his "results".:lol:

Job gains are irrelevant when you have full employment which the left wants to ignore, here is reality as Trump isn't competing against himself

So why don't you call BLS and tell them their numbers are wrong and then call the 3 million plus new taxpayers they aren't really employed?
 
Conservative said:
Ok, so what really matters, rhetoric or results?
Click to expand...

Results, obviously. Got any to show us? Has the wall been built, has Hillary been locked up, has Obamacare been repealed and replaced? Has NAFTA been renegotiated? Has NATO toed the line? Has North Korea abandoned it's nuclear program, or Iran? Have the coal mines been reopened, has Carrier Corp actually stopped cutting American jobs? What results are we talking about here?

Actual data will explain it to you but then again you wouldn't understand it so won't waste my time any more
 
Conservative said:
No comparison necessary as the results tell it all. You continue to focus on tabloid politics and I will focus on what the American people are concerned about jobs, economic growth, and national security. It truly is great to have someone with experience in the WH vs. a community agitator

There are no results of this agreement yet. We cannot judge by results that don't yet exist, but I am sure that won't matter to you.

Post 65 would be a good start and this after ONE YEAR!! Such impatience, did you have it during the 8 years of Obama when he failed to deliver on his promises?

You just cannot give Trump any credit at all can you? No results but headed in the right direction for a change. Where is that trade war predicted?

I have no idea what post #65 represents. My best guess is an increase in employment, just the steady increase that's been happening for four or five years. The economy has been climbing since long before Trump was elected, but trumpophiles like to pretend that the trend started the day he was inaugurated. Actually, all you can say he's done is he hasn't actually screwed up what was already happening.

I often had the feeling he thought other countries would immediately do what he said just because he was Barack Obama. Even though they clearly demonstrated they said "who?"

no the steady increase that you are talking about isn't in context as you look at the bottom line and not the make up. Obama created record numbers of part time employees for economic reasons, people who wanted full time jobs but never could find them. Trump has reversed that but then again actual data in context is a foreign concept to you because you refuse to believe your ideology is a complete and total failure.

Obama left us with 152 million employed of which 6 million were part time employees, Trump has over 155 million now and less than 5 million part time employees. If you don't understand the difference then there is no hope for you
