Remember one of Trump's first boasts about saving jobs?

Unemployment is at a 17yr low....
Unemployment Rate Holds at Nearly 17-Year Low as U.S. Adds 228,000 Jobs in November

Dow Jones Surpasses 25,000 for the First Time as Stocks Rally Despite Winter Storm

 

[tycho1572]

Oops... my bad.
What was it you were you whining about, NYcarbineer?

 

[whitehall]

Taking into account that Carrier stayed in the U.S. rather than move to Mexico it seems that we have to revise the figure. It seems that President Trump saved only 1,005 jobs rather than the original 1,600 jobs previously stated. Feel better lefties?

The Left: Jobs are shit, the economy is shit, the market is propped up!

No it's not. If it was, you would have posted some evidence.

Are coal mining jobs up by 50,000 since last year?

"The official Bureau of Labor Statistics data shows strikingly smaller increases than what Pruitt said, even when taking into account his comments on other Sunday shows. Meanwhile, there is evidence that coal production and shipment is higher this year compared to early 2016, but the rise actually began under Obama and it’s not clear that Trump policies have been the driving factor.

We rate the statement Mostly False.

EPA administrator

"Since the fourth quarter of last year until most recently, we've added almost 50,000 jobs in the coal sector. In the month of May alone, almost 7,000 jobs."

Don't know, but the real question is, how many have not worked in the mines, and how many have not had assistance in training for 21st Century jobs.

It's only been a freaking year and the crazy angry left is relying on obscure essays by obscure left wing blogists to undermine the obvious fact that the DOW is up 5,000 points and their own hypocrite 401k's are making money. Maybe the President should offer PTSD clinics to crazy left wing nut cases who can't seem to enjoy the prosperity.

 

[Spare_change]

You do now.

More layoffs at Carrier factory Trump touted last year

1) Initially, saved 1600 jobs.
2) 500 layoffs since then.

Sounds like he saved 1100 jobs .... damn good job, if you ask me.

Hey, the economy of 2017 is the one Obama sent in motion, let's see how effective Trump is once his agenda has a year to prove itself.
