        Unfortunately the economy is not doing great just because you say so. We have increased inflation, stagnant wages, an astronomical debt, and increased taxes in the form of tariffs. The tariffs have threatened farmers so much we have had to spend billions of dollars we don't have.

        Hey John, South Dakotan here. Why do my husband and I (both college educated) have to work a combined four jobs to live a modest, middle class life? Are we not “hardworking” enough?

        When every GOP member chants it 10 times a day you know it's propaganda- Only when the 90% says it will it be true. BTW you need to get off twitter and get your President a Aripiprazole,Clozapine,Lurasidone and Paliperidone cocktail to get him back to reality.

        The "steady growth" of stock prices without a corresponding increase in WAGES is an increasing DISASTER for what's left of the Middle Class. #BlueWave2018

        Good fudging there John. Wage growth is not the same as keeping up with the cost of living instead of still being stagnant or losing buying power.

        Then there's all those companies taking #AmericanJobs to other countries to escape the #RussianUsurper's #TradeWarFallout, financed by your #TaxSCAM that also, coincidentally added $2+ Trillion to the #NationalDebt the grands, great grands and great greats w/be paying off.

        If you’re going to make that assertion, please be honest and discuss the rate of inflation (which is erasing the benefits for most citizens) and the increase in both corporate and personal debt. You’re still selling an illusion.

        But what about stagnant wages and soaring inflation? The cost of living is keeping the working middle class down!

        So, you are saying ignore the traitor in the WH, and the GOP Congress who protects him? A good economy, does not matter if we become another Putin territory. What ever happened to your oath to protect America?

        Seriously? WAKE UP! You keep up this blind Trump Train devotion and you’ll be ousted out of office and your entire career will be a joke. Be a man. Trump is like a child...did you hear President Obama’s speech today??? THAT is how we aspire for our children to be. Not the latter.

        The funny thing is that economic growth actually had a HUGE decline after Trump took office. There’s still a tiny bit of growth, but it’s nowhere near what it was, and yet we’ll just ignore that inconvenient part so we can pretend it’s all great
