NY Times: The Election Year Economy Is Everything Trump Could Hope For

EXPERTS ARE BAFFLED: Immigration to America is down. Wages are up. Are the two related?

“IN BOTH 2018 and 2019 nominal wages rose by more than 3%, the fastest growth since before the recession a decade ago. Americans at the bottom of the labour market are doing especially well. In the past year the wages of those without a high-school diploma have risen by nearly 10%. Intriguingly, this has come as America has turned considerably less friendly to immigrants, who are assumed by many to steal jobs from natives and lower the wages of less-educated folk.”​
 
Still a political lifetime until the election.
 
I like Trump's chances in November.
That said, he still needs to be more presidential and stop tweeting.
