That is exactly what they are saying by supporting him. Exactly.

And exactly how the world interprets it.

How can a liar and a cheat and the village idiot, and an altogether evil person do a good job?

Typical right wing logic-lol!

Republicans aren't saying that.

They are simply saying Trump is doing a good job for America.

<,

It is important for people to realize that Trump is the face of the Republican party where about 90% still support him.

So the Republicans are in effect saying:

" we really like this guy. He is the type of guy we would like our children to be like and we think he can make this country a wonderful country where all children will be happy and healthy because he is so wise.

Trump is what the Republicans regard as a wise man!?

And that is why the women, kids, and minorities are fleeing the Republican party.

There are 93 Democratic women in the House of representatives, and only 13 Republican women and two of those just they will not run for reelection.. Women prefer the dems 2 to 1 over the pubs. And the last Republican minority just said he would not run in 2020.

Anyone who supports Trump should be both embarrassed and worried about their intellectual or moral authority or both!

Can you see Trump for what he is??

A criminal, pathological liar and sociopath of the worst kind!

What "good job" U MORON? Trump Has Created 1.5 Million Fewer Jobs Than Obama
Chuck JonesSenior Contributor
forbes.com

The U.S. Department of Labor had two announcements in the past month that showed job growth under President Trump is weaker than expected. On August 21 it published a preliminary estimate of its upcoming annual revision, which decreased its original job growth projection by 501,000 from April 2018 to March 2019.

The second was the monthly job report released on September 6 showing that only 130,000 jobs were created with June and July’s results decreasing by 15,000 and 5,000, respectively, for a net job gain of 110,000. The total was also helped by the Federal government hiring 25,000 people for the upcoming census, making net jobs added about 85,000.

Trump’s job growth falls short of Obama’s last three years

The Labor Department’s revised job count lowered the April 2018 to March 2019 by 501,000. Assuming that the almost 42,000 per month lower number is spread evenly across the 12 months, Trump’s 2018 total of 2.303 million jobs falls short of Obama’s 2014 to 2016 results and essentially matches his 2.302 million for 2013. And 2018 was helped by Trump’s tax cut sugar high.

2011 total: 2.075 million2012 total: 2.174 million2013 total: 2.302 million2014 total: 3.006 million2015 total: 2.729 million2016 total: 2.318 million2017 total: 2.153 million2018 total: 2.303 million (first year of tax cut)Past 12 months: 1.782 million2019 year to date through August: 1.141 million2019 year to date annualized: 1.711 million

Trump’s monthly job results are decelerating

Monthly job growth peaked in 2014 at 251,000 per month, the fifth full year of the economic expansion. It fell to 179,000 per month in 2017 and got a small boost from Trump’s tax cut in 2018, moving the average to 192,000 per month, assuming that nine months of the revisions fall in 2018.

Assuming the remaining three months of the Labor Department’s revision were in 2019 it drops the average for this year to 143,000 jobs added per month. For the past 12 months the average has been 148,000, even lower than Obama’s results in 2011 and 2012.

2011 monthly average: 173,0002012 monthly average: 181,0002013 monthly average: 192,0002014 monthly average: 251,0002015 monthly average: 227,0002016 monthly average: 193,0002017 monthly average: 179,0002018 monthly average: 192,000 (first year of tax cut)Past 12 months average: 148,0002019 average per month through August: 143,000

The lower results over the past year are partially due to the length of the recovery but also from the recent slowdown in the economy. It doesn’t help that the Federal budget deficits are running over $1 trillion per year as far as the key can see and that Trump’s trade wars have created a higher level of uncertainty which keeps managers from taking on more people.


Monthly job growth over the past 8 plus years

CAPITAL ECONOMICS AND REFINITIVOver 31 months Obama added 1.5 million more jobs than Trump

Trump entered office on January 20, 2017 so starting with February 2017 he has been President for 31 months. Total job growth during that time has been 5.345 million or 172,000 per month with those results being helped by the tax cut.

Working back from January 2017, Obama’s last month in office, there had been 6.838 million jobs added or 221,000 per month. The difference for the 31 months is 1.493 million or 48,000 more per month than Trump.

Why use Obama’s last 31 months in office vs. his first 31 months

There were some questions raised why I used Obama’s last 29 months in office vs. his first 29 months when I published a previous article that calculated Trump had generated almost 1 million fewer jobs than Obama. The reason was (and is why I’m using Obama’s last 31 months in this article) is that Obama started his Presidency during the Great Recession. He had no control over the hundreds of thousands of jobs being cut per month just after he took the oath of office. To compare Trump’s to Obama’s record it makes sense to use comparable economic circumstances.
