You will see a very detailed comparison shortly. But @BarackObama was wrong. The jobs picture is not the same under @realDonaldTrump.

Under Trump, there's been an average 82,000 more jobs per month than Obama. Wage growth last month was fastest pace since the Great Recession.
2. Under @BarackObama, natural resources and mining were negative trends, and manufacturing was on life support. Under @realDonaldTrump, the former is now net positive and strong, while manufacturing now growing at fastest pace since 1995. peoplespunditdaily.com/news/economy/2…
3. One more for good measure. Manufacturing, which was on life support under @BarackObama, now employs the highest number in a decade. So, "No," the jobs picture under @realDonaldTrump is not the same now.

Nice try though, Mr. Obama. peoplespunditdaily.com/news/economy/2…

Have to be honest, the biggest lie tonight was told by Chuck Schumer. After all the hogwash. The lie was "we all support border security."

That's not true. Let's see if Glenn Kessler has the guts.
Second, if he wants to be as effective as he can be, Donald Trump should spend a lot more time in serious mode, like we saw tonight. Now to Chuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi...
Again, it always is very difficult to follow a president. But Schumer and Pelosi did not come across well, optically. They dismissed migrant human suffering and the deaths of Americans by calling it "manufactured."

They also appeared to concede the effectiveness of a border wall

1. If someone was elected promising "Hope and Change," but a corrupt status quo accepted him, then what hope was there for change?

None, and to think otherwise is self-delusion.

Real change comes at a cost to stability, and the status quo fights back. They don't roll over.
2. Now for the other side.

The election of one man to the presidency, a revolution does not make. If you were honest, wouldn't you admit that you are too easy on your party?

Everyone wants to blame an "other." But the corrupt status quo & its construct in D.C., are bipartisan.
3. Now for The New York Times, which I'm sure you figured out is the point of this thread.

Aside from their editor trashing them the other day for no longer being a news organization, if you consider them a reliable source of news, they you're a chump. An intel played, chump.

I have the same advice for Democrats re: AOC as I did for Republicans re: DJT.

Focus on policy and people, and shut your mouths long enough to maybe figure out why it is she resonates.

No one cares what you think. That's why we have them both.

Further...
Notice AOC criticizes but does not obsess over Donald Trump? She's substantively wrong but substantive, nonetheless.

She focuses on policy and people, something she ripped right from Donald Trump. No one cares if someone offends your delicate sensibilities. It's not about you...
Since no one really buys your "I'm so offended" holier/smarter than thou acts, people naturally begin to ask why these outsiders are met with such a visceral response.

B/C they don't buy the holier or smarter than thou acts, they conclude it is B/C they threaten a status quo...

@Jim_Jordan Any #Trump sycophant, alleged pedophile protector, trying to besmirch this hero, while his own children will have to suffer from the decisions made for the country, is sad. Why wouldn't the #GOP make it an open door session if they had nothing to hide? Your reign ends soon.
@Jim_Jordan As time passes, more comes to light, with the Steele dossier, Trumps alleged involvement in Epstein child sex ring where Secretary Acosta stopped the FBI investigation before more suspects could be arrested, and money laundering campaign contributions from Russian operatives.
@Jim_Jordan Plus your support for a theocratic monarchy that really acts like a ruthless inhumane dictator & desire to sell American technology to them when it could then be used to kill our own troops or handed over to Russia is genuinely INSANE. Who is dishonorable, spineless sycophantic?

Against Normalization: The Lesson of the “Munich Post”

THE TRUMP-HITLER COMPARISON.
Is there any comparison? Between the way the campaigns of Donald #Trump and Adolf #Hitler should have been treated by the #media and the culture? The way the media should act now? The problem of #normalization?
2/
Because I’d written a book called Explaining Hitler several editors had asked me, during the #campaign, to see what could be said on the subject.

Until the morning after the election I had declined them.

So #Trump is holding a news conference in about five minutes. I’ll be watching (and probably tweeting). Follow/mute at will!
Okay, #Trump has started speaking. He's already slurring. He's already made a joke about "a lot of......MEDIA.".

This does not bode well.
#Trump is now saying that China wants to "see me lose an election because they've never been challenged before."

It's not just China, pal.
