jobless claims set record

Vita and Noir, the two blind mice who can’t see the help wanted signs on every business in America.

It’s ok fellas, we’re all just happy whore mongers. Nobody will hold supporting the senile old coot against you. No need to pretend he has done absolutely anything that improves the lives of US citizens.

master of the SPIN cycle

BAHHAHHAAA

You do very little original thinking. Sort of like a "cover" band.


Trumpites and their election fraud SPIN. But unable to acknowledge the election fraud claims of 2016.
It's possible Mr. Trump lost......twice.

New weekly jobless claims are the lowest since 1969.


Who to thank for that ? Originally Posted by VitaMan

Given that red states predominantly have the lowest unemployment rates and blue states predominantly have the highest, we can give almost ALL the credit to the fine Republican governors and Republican state legislators:

And of course to President Trump, who brought the unemployment rate down from 14.4% in April, 2020 to 6.2% when he left office. Any improvements since then have just been a continuation of the trend established under President Trump:

I'm being sarcastic, of course, at least as far as Trump and the rebound from the COVID lockdowns is concerned. I do believe Republican state government, and Republicans in general, are better at creating conditions that lead to full employment in the private sector. Yes, Biden's American Rescue Plan did goose the economy. But at the same time it extended benefits not to work. So I'm not sure it had a positive effect on employment. It did add to inflationary pressures.

Any way you care to slice it - TRUMP is Better than Biden.

Biden is president. So clearly he should be blamed (since giving him credit for anything would be anathema to the folks on this board) for great jobless claims numbers. Great job Biden. Originally Posted by NoirMan

And why wouldn't your analogy apply to Trump
