Most of the economy has nothing to do with the president, Republican or Democrat. Here's how to navigate Thanksgiving political debates, according to BrettArends.
Politics is ruining Thanksgiving for many families. And with election season heating up, this year is unlikely to be any better. But if you’re going to get through the meal you will need the latest facts and figures to back up your arguments.
Any other bright ideas? You can unite everyone around the table by telling them how much you like the New England Patriots and how you hope they’re going to win it all again this year. Of course, unless you’re actually in New England, this will unite everyone around the table against you. But at least they’ll be united.
My liberal relatives say the stock market isn’t the “real economy,” and it doesn’t have anything to do with Trump anyway. Are they right? Do you think they’d be saying the same thing if the stock market had collapsed? ’Nuff said. Anyway, Trump’s cut taxes, had a lighter toucher on regulations, and maybe he pressured the Fed into cutting rates. We can never know how much those have helped, but apparently they haven’t hurt .
Oh, Trump says black Americans are doing better than ever on his watch. Is he right? The black unemployment rate has fallen to 5.4%. That’s the lowest level since records began . The rate has dropped 2.3 percentage points on Trump’s watch. It dropped 5 points under Obama. Meanwhile, according to the U.S. Census, the median black household saw its annual income rise $38 between 2016 and 2018. White households: $2,214.
Hey, but at least Trump is rolling back “big government,” right? Actually, there are slightly more government employees in America today than there were in January 2017.
