Trump's big reelection weapon: A remarkable manufacturing jobs boom

[the other mike]

In the summer of 2016, few believed then-candidate Donald Trump could make good on his promise to bring back some of the millions of manufacturing jobs that had been lost during the Clinton, Bush and Obama administrations.

At a PBS town hall, President Obama went so far as to mock Trump’s commitment to manufacturing. “What magic wand do you have?” Obama said.

Since January 2017, more than 480,000 manufacturing jobs have been added to the U.S. economy, following two decades of sharp losses.

I believe Trump's BIGGEST re-election weapon is that he's SANE and strong of mind. NONE of the Dem front runners appear to be sane. That's our president's biggest edge.

Still winning through a 3 1/2 year attempted coup.
Remarkable achievement sir !

I think it will be the Durham surprise coming.

We're still in a massive debt bubble, there's an extremely volatile atmosphere in the Middle East and we're
in the midst of a possible pandemic if the Chinese can't contain the Coronavirus.

The death toll from the coronavirus outbreak in mainland China reached at least 1,868 as of the end of Monday, with additional 93 deaths from Hubei and five more in other parts of the country, according to the country's health commission on Tuesday.

The government also reported an additional 1,886 new infections across the country, but mostly from Hubei, bringing the nationwide total to at least 72,436.

There was only one decade of loss and that ended in 2010....

Since the government is acting as if we are in the midst of a deep recession and pumping the economy for all it's worth we have to ask what Trump's awesome economy is going to cost us when the bubble finally bursts.

The Fed is supposed to keep rates low until inflation exceeds 2% a year. In fact the prediction is to lower rates before they'd raise them, so no one is predicting a recession any time soon. IMHO the "crisis" will occur when the $23T Debt increases to the point that the interest on the Debt creates a Budget crisis and big cuts in the Budget become necessary. The GOP tax cuts are NOT generating 5% GDP growth as assumed.
The financial "crisis" will hit after 2024 unless the tax revenue is increased.

so it has contracted 6 out of the last 7 months, that is so much better

The big three that killed manufacturing in this country were both Bushes and Clinton. All three produced monetary windfalls for big business, but in the long term, they all sold the workers of this country out. Obama did nothing but propose more idiotic free trade agreements, even though he didn't get many through. That leaves solving the problem up to our great President, Donald Trump, who is the only President since Eisenhower with the balls to get it done. And he will win this battle just as he does on most of the others.

Yes, the economy tends to fluctuate in tumultuous situations,
like when the sitting president is being impeached.
