Yet another reason to vote Trump

[George50]

Sure. Except that large numbers of "essential workers" also are low-wage workers (think Biden's "black woman stocking grocery shelves". Here in California "essential workers" comprise over two thirds of active employees.

I didn’t think you would understand the math.

What you also don’t realize (or won’t admit) is that the primary driver of wage increases during the pre pandemic Trump years were minimum wage increases passed by state and local governments in mostly Democrat controlled areas.

p.s. California’s minimum wage went up 8.3% on 1/1/2020.

Not me with the misunderstandings. Or the partisan blindness.

LOL, you guys are hilarious! Did you all get together on the Dembot Cult hotline to coordinate your response.

Funny thing is that more people are working now than during most of Obama's Presidency.

Funny thing is that more people have filed for unemployment since March than voted for Trump in 2016.

 

[rahl]

Not denying anything. Just pointing out that things change, progress happens and we're not stuck at this point for ever, or for long if Dems get off their collective asses and get stimulus money moving.

Uh, the democrat majority house has passed 2 stimulus bills in the past 4 months. The Republican majority senate won’t even take them to committee. Why are republicans intentionally hurting Americans?

 

[Aunt Antifa]

what amazing dishonesty: I noted what he wants to do and proved it by citing his own campaign site

You grossly exaggerated his plans to fit a phony narrative of absolutes. So either you achieved a new understanding of your own position due to previously being an uneducated rube content to spew campaign talking points or you were being disingenuous.

You choose. Try not to screw this one up after butchering a compliment.

PS: Donald Trump is still the only candidate to propose taking someone’s guns away without due process.

Many Trump supporters are not well trained in subjects like basic math

and science.

and biology

and social science.

you get the picture....

How about sentence structure?

 

[Airyaman]

Nothing evasive here - one of my early posts answered your question. This shit doesn't change your cluelessness.

I'm not digging through your posting history to figure out just how clueless you might be.

And more are working even under COVID restricts than did through almost 2/3s of Obama's term.

Thanks for rolling out the standard cliches. However, those rising wages and dropping unemployment will help people pull out of the poverty level. Last count from BLS is over 6.5 million jobs are available.

And how many are competing for the same jobs? Do you know? Are you unemployed and looking right now?

I am, and I see anywhere between 150-500 people who have applied for the same job I am on LinkedIn. That is just one job board, so we can expect there to be several times that actually applying. Many jobs are taken down after 1-2 days because they see such a surge in applicants.

Should I be happy there are so many jobs available when there are so many more unemployed who will be edged out by someone else with more experience or better interview tact? Should I be happy that unemployment systems in most states are overwhelmed and weeks if not months behind, and Republicans continue to say that states should not receive more money for those systems because the governors will just squander the money and not put it into the programs that need it? If only helping American people was in everyone's best interests; instead, we have partisan battles that put more and more people at risk of losing their homes.

In other words you know I'm correct. concession accepted.

Correct about what? Your cluelessness? Yes, you are, I agree.

As usual, you have nothing of substance to refute what I have laid out with actual real world examples that counter the Trump bubble that you live in. If only you lived in the real world and not in that bubble.

Let’s take a look at that.

That's because the Dam versions were loaded with pork and paying for dem wishlist items. Dems also filibustered GOP bills.

Yep, like we haven't seen this about four thousand times so far. What exactly are we supposed to see here?

you are wrong-and Trump never said anything about banning the sale of commonly owned firearms. Biden bragged up the Clinton gun ban and wants to force people to be limited to buying one gun a month-clearly unconstitutional. And he wants to make it illegal to own an 11 round magazine

EVERY MAJOR ANTI GUN GROUP SUPPORTS BIDEN

EVERY MAJOR PRO GUN GROUP SUPPORTS TRUMP

Not me with the misunderstandings. Or the partisan blindness.

You want to use California as an example? California’s minimum wage went up 8.3% on 1/1/2020. Pretty close to the 8.2% you say is a slam dunk for Trump. Are you saying Trump was responsible for California increasing their minimum wage?

your opinion is noted. This does not have any relevance to republicans refusing to take them to committee to amend them and send back to the house. Why are republicans intentionally hurting Americans?

No they didn’t.

8,000,000 Americans have hit the poverty level in the last couple of months, over 220,000 Americans have died from a Pandemic with many more to follow...............whatever

And the point is?????????????

 

[Geoist]

In spite of battle coronavirus, slobber-slinging Democratic, and user-bias debate/townhall moderators Trump has once again slam-dunked on the "he's ruined the economy mini-brains. Median wages for full time employees soared despite the boat anchor drag of coronavirus, power-drunk governors opening and closing their states and Biden's tax hike and frivolous spending platform.

Compare side-by-side the economic numbers of Republican Presidents vs Democratic Presidents through the past century, and tell me why I should ever consider a Republican over a Democrat.

Good old socialist CA. Forcing one person to pay a different person the named number. Democrats are authoritarians as I keep telling the forum.

Wages under Trump rise due to the willingness to pay, not the use of the Trump force.

Were I you and wished to remain poor, poorly educated and looking to blame others, I would vote for the Democrat.

I am from CA and let me add that we had similar measures at the local level (SF).

Office of Labor Standards Enforcement | San Francisco

The San Francisco Office of Labor Standards Enforcement (OLSE) advances the welfare of San Francisco’s workers through the enforcement of labor laws, proactive public education, and high quality public service.

sfgov.org

The increase was inremental and at the time conservatives were predicting (as usual) the coming of an economic calamity.
SF unemployment went as low as 2% (actually 1.9% in Dec 2019)

I can help you a hell of a lot.
When republicans in the Senate chat with the Democrats, Nancy says hell no. She never changes her tune.
