Yes, I was being generous with the "running for two weeks" thing. The polls showed that his sorry arse was a non-starter so he folded. He had even vetted Admiral Mullen to be his running mate, but then after considering it, Mullen said that he was not interested. Yup. It was a zippy thing. Maybe next time. Must be a lot of support here because some people here are lining up to salivate over him. Go for it. You dont have anyone else looking good for a candidate.
You are generous with all sorts of lies which makes you an enabler of the downfall of this country. Thanks for at least admitting that.
Of course, whatever your drug infused fantasy world makes you believe. I ask again, which part of the article do you not agree with? There must be something. https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/...-rivals-one-of-the-greatest-streaks-in-sports
I see. So the suggestion that Bloomberg started down the road of running for president and backed off because polls showed that he was dud, is just a complete lie? Fine. Meanwhile, for those who are not in a trance state: https://www.washingtonpost.com/news...campaign-preparations/?utm_term=.bc2600d340ed
He decided not to run because it would have taken votes from Clinton. That was the one and only reason. He was mainly occupied with opposing the biggest liar in American political history.
Which part? This one? "The good news this month began with an incredible jobs report. The unemployment rate fell to 3.9 percent, falling under 4 percent for the first time since 2000. Even better, unlike during the Obama presidency, the low jobless rate was not due to people giving up and leaving the workforce. Instead, since Trump’s election, almost 1 million new workers have re-entered the labor market. That movement toward self-sufficiency reaps myriad benefits for our society including more stable families, lower crime, and less government dependency. In fact, an amazing 2 million Americans stopped receiving food stamps during fiscal 2017."
So 4 percent is some sort of magic number? The unemployment rate has been falling for years under Obama. Shock yes, investment gains, more jobs, under a Democrat president. Where have those 1 million entered the workforce. In coal mining and right wing media? Look at your article. It states 1 million entered the workforce, yet it ignores others left and when one clicks on the link it comes up with some NFP number for one reading. That is what I call untruthful and disingenuous reporting. Check out the official labor statistics I posted below. Facts and truth never lies Case closed.
I see. If he ran, he could not beat Trump. Smart move on his part then. Could have told him that in advance.
You are correct, case closed. Good News Doesn't Always Travel Fast Mainstream media are refusing to give Trump his due for the record-breaking economy. By Peter Roff Contributing Editor for OpinionJan. 16, 2018, at 5:00 p.m. Good News Doesn't Always Travel Fast Economic Optimism Index "jumped more than 6 percent in January to 55.1, which is close to the all time high for this measure and marks the 16th consecutive month the index has been in optimistic territory." Some economists, particularly those of the kind who cheered when Barack Obama announced his "shovel ready" infrastructure stimulus, are throwing caution aside asserting the growth we're now seeing in the economy is the result of the former president's economic policies taking root. Talk about whistling past the graveyard. If Obama had anything to do with the good numbers that, to be fair, started to appear while he was in office, it was only because the markets were starting to price in the fact that no matter what the outcome of the 2016 election, he and his regulatory happy band of progressive central planners would soon be gone. Take the figures concerning black unemployment, which Patrice Lee Onwuka of the Independent Women's Forum broke down in detail. According to her, "Unemployment for blacks in the U.S. declined from 7.9 percent in December 2016 to 6.8 percent at the end of last year. Nearly half a million (480,000) more black workers are employed compared to one year ago." "This is a significant achievement. It's been 17 years since the unemployment rate for blacks hit its previous lowest record rate of 7 percent," she wrote. "Black women, who enjoy the highest labor participation rates among women in the labor force, made great strides as well. Some 246,000 black women gained jobs over the past year. The unemployment rate among black women fell from 7 percent to 5.8 percent. That's better than declines for white women (from 3.8 percent to 3.4 percent) and Hispanic women (5.9 to 5.3 percent)." Leave Pot Policy to the People States are more than capable of making their own decisions about drug laws. Peter RoffJan. 12, 2018 These are startling numbers. Admittedly it's hard to accept they are so good solely because of Trump policies or GOP policies, but they are what they are. The economy, as Onwuka sees it, "is improving for black America and should continue to get better as pro-growth and pro-family policies expand our resources and deliver better opportunities." How is it possible that this is not frontpage news? How is it the 24-hour cable networks that are willing to devote hours of programming to the impact of what President Trump said or might have said in a private meeting with senators discussing immigration policy aren't holding televised townhalls and bringing in the best economic minds in the country to explain why the issue of black unemployment – which many had relegated to the burial ground of insoluble problems – has suddenly taken a turn for the better? The answer is about more than simple media bias. Previous Republican presidents like Reagan and the two Bushes were regarded with disdain and generally thought to be too dumb to do the job. With Trump it's more than that. It's open hostility to the man reflected in a general unwillingness to cover anything good that he does and anything good that might be happening because of the policies he's put in place. The same people who could never accept that he won the nomination when they all said it was improbable and that he won the presidency despite their projections and polls that showed it would be impossible for him to do so are so vested in proving they were ultimately right that they are not only rooting for him to fail, they are trying to cause it to happen. Don’t Buy GOP’s Fiscal Fear Mongering Republicans will soon try to use the deficit and debt as an excuse to slash important social programs. Chad StoneJan. 12, 2018 Taking this position is not going to win me a lot of friends among my colleagues or cause people to buy me a drink at the National Press Club. I fully understand why Trump seems to be so unsavory to so many people and, to be candid, I'm not totally unsympathetic to their view. But what's going on now between the American press and the president reminds me of the times at the Bear Ridge School when all the boys in the class decided to gang up on me on the playground. I may not have been the easiest kid in the class to get along with, but 15 against 1 was unfair by any standard. It's the same now for Trump, who must daily confront people who have a responsibility to the rest of us to explain in an impartial fashion the events of the day, events in which the president figures greatly to one degree or another. Even if he invites the abuse he's getting through his tweets and even through remarks made in what he thought was private, it's not right for my press corps colleagues in the major mainstream media to line up to a man and woman on the other side. Given the immense power of the presidency to mobile public opinion some may call that a fair fight. What they're missing is it shouldn't be a fight at all.
