CNN on the last jobs report before the midterms: "It came in cold -- surprisingly cold. Job growth weaker than expected, unemployment unexpectedly went up, and paychecks aren't keeping up with prices. This was disappointing all around."

For decades, music floated across the Potomac from a barge beneath the Watergate steps. When the concerts ended, their spirit endured nearby in the Kennedy Center, where Washington built a permanent home for the arts beside the river that first carried the sound.

I usually attribute Trump's bizarre ramblings to either his psychopathic lying or his psychotic delusions, or some combination of the two. But this is just him being an economically illiterate moron.
President Trump Explains Trade Deficits:

“If we buy 2 billion dollars worth of Bananas from Brazil, we’re actually losing 2 billion dollars.  So if we stop eating bananas, we actually save 2 billion dollars”. 

It’s just simple Economics.

⚠️ Be careful with VoteSafe .org. It is NOT an official voting website. It’s tied to Elon Musk’s America PAC and collects a lot of personal information from people who use it. Before you hand over your name, address, phone number, email and voter information, know who you’re giving it to.

Why does law enforcement focus on left-wing activists, when it's well known that most violence comes from the far-right? Because cops are part of the far-right. This happened in Britain, but the only difference on this side of the pond are how the sirens sound.
