    Good News! This past month, the US economy nearly doubled the number of jobs that economists predicted, with wages outpacing inflation.

        Wages went up because states passed minimum wage increases, which you said would kill jobs. Now you are going to try and take credit for it? Zero shame.

        Part of the wages going up are for people that are already making $$ in the Trump administration getting $10K raises today while 800k won't get checks at all! Do you have any, ANY, idea how ridiculous you and your party are?

        Unless you are a federal employee who is not working and was told you won’t get a cost of living raise. So when are you going to help federal employees and reopen the giver my and take care of federal employees. You talk about conservation and look at the status of national parks

        And let's not forget the 2T in debt. My God! The GOP didn't learn one damn thing from the midterms. I'm so glad I left the party.....along with the other 10-15 million others who have smartened up. When we see all that you've covered up, 2020 will be an absolute bloodbath!

        We’ve seen this before: GOP cuts taxes for the rich, promises trickle down works. It never does, we crash, Dems fix. Rinse, repeat. We were on the right track and now heading for another crash.
