    Cuck trying to mock someone else's station in life
    No I'm not. You seriously have poor reading comprehension skills.

    Again, I'm not being funny. You seriously have no clue who I'm mocking and why... and it's not the first, second or even the tenth time you misinterpret very simple statements.

    One's profession or station determines how valuable their opinion is. Sounds stunningly ignorant...
    The authority of the speaker varies directly with celebrity or social status?

    Interesting hypothesis.

    Trash's entire existence is based on falsely, dishonestly self-aggrandizing, self-enrichment, and hurting whomever he can.

    As sanctions bite in Cuba, the U.S. — once a driver of hope — is now a source of pain

    Just like that, the cruise ships are gone, along with thousands of cash-toting Americans who oohed and aahed — and shopped — amid the crumbling grandeur of Old Havana.

    For Cubans, it’s a bitter reversal of fortune.

    President Barack Obama’s opening of relations here, leading to his historic visit three years ago,

    inspired hopes of an economic boom,

    bringing American investment and visitors back to this communist island largely shut off from the United States for more than a half-century.

    A new crop of restaurateurs, IT entrepreneurs, artists and fashion designers, reveling in a fresh sense of optimism, began building businesses to tap into the seemingly lucrative detente.


    But as a
    deepening frost settles in between the Trump administration and Havana, Cuba is instead confronting its worst economic setback in years.

    Trump busted as a ‘complete idiot’ for threats against his own Fed chairman:

    ‘You would fail junior high economics’


    “Despite a Federal Reserve that doesn’t know what it is doing – raised rates far to fast (very low inflation, other parts of world slowing, lowering & easing) & did large scale tightening, $50 Billion/month, we are on course to have one of the best Months of June in U.S. history,” Trump tweeted.
    “Think of what it could have been if the Fed had gotten it right,” he added. “Thousands of points higher on the Dow, and GDP in the 4’s or even 5’s. Now they stick, like a stubborn child, when we need rates cuts, & easing, to make up for what other countries are doing against us. Blew it!”

    His claims — which he deleted and reposted without misspellings — were quickly fact-checked and ridiculed by other Twitter users.

    This is so lame-brained. Short term interest rates are around 2.4%, extremely low by historic standards. Mortgage rates are extremely low. Borrowed money is cheap. Tariffs and presidential miscues are holding the U.S. back, not interest rates.

    The Fed reduces interest rates when the economy is showing signs of slowing. So, you are admitting that YOUR economy is beginning to struggle as a result of YOUR tariffs and now you are asking the Fed to bail you out. Isn't that what your dad used to do for you?

    Unemployment rises in eight Trump states — and it could cost him in 2020

    CNBC reports that unemployment in eight different states that Trump won in 2016 has actually risen year-over-year, and it’s eroded his popularity.

    the president actually has a negative net approval rating in the states of North Carolina and Arizona,

    which are two states that he will need to hold if he wants to win in 2020.

    lol so much for sticking it to the elites
    I follow lots of people that aren't in TV or movies. I follow people because I like their opinions, not because they are entertaining. Again, you're being stunningly ignorant. No amount of ellipses or emoticons will cover it up.
    lol celebs giving their political opinions is good now

    Another case of the Repugs see just how much they get away with

    Office of Special Counsel head to criticize Kellyanne Conway's 'inappropriate' and 'unlawful' behavior before Congress

    The Office of Special Counsel
    recommended earlier this month that Conway be fired for "repeatedly" violating the Hatch Act

    her "unrepentant at ude," which he says are "unacceptable from any federal employee, let alone one in such a prominent position."

    "Her conduct hurts both federal employees,

    who may believe that senior officials can act with complete disregard for the Hatch Act, and the American people,

    who may question

    the nonpartisan operation of their government,"

    the Office of Special Counsel has had to issue multiple reports about Conway's violations.

    "Ms. Conway's conduct reflects not a misunderstanding of the law,

    but rather a disregard for it," he therefore concludes.

    Lol no, you just said you value people's opinions based on their stations....which obviously includes Hollywood.
    I was talking about you, you dumb .

    No amount of twisting will change the fact that you need someone in a station above you in Hollywood to think for you.
    This is why I usually avoid responding to you. You have the mind of a child.

    Under Trump, Manufacturing Job Growth Slows to a Trickle

    The average hourly wage for manufacturing workers is, for the first time ever, slightly below the overall average.

    While Trump has engaged in considerable bluster in his trade negotiations, they have not led to much of a payoff for U.S. manufacturing workers to date.

    At the most basic level, instead of shrinking, the trade deficit has gotten larger under Trump.

    Manufacturing job growth has slowed to a trickle in recent months.

    In the last four months, the economy has added a grand total of 13,000 manufacturing jobs, just over 3,000 a month.

    The index of aggregate hours worked in manufacturing is down 0.3 percent from its January level.

    It is back to where it was in August of last year.

    It is good that manufacturers would cut back hours rather than lay off workers in response to weak demand, but

    it doesn’t change the fact that

    we are seeing less demand in the manufacturing sector.

    The Federal Reserve Board reports that its measure of
    industrial production for manufacturing has been falling since December 2018 and is now back to its level of April 2018.

    when the number of manufacturing jobs was rising under Trump,

    this was not translating into substantial wage growth, as wage growth in the sector has lagged overall wage.

    We can speculate as to the motivations of current or former manufacturing workers who voted for Trump,

    but if they expected that his presidency was going to bring back good-paying jobs in the sector,

    they were badly mistaken.

    It’s not clear that they will see their MAGA hats as much compensation.

    What the do you expect, _? We're at 3.6%. I was told since knee high to a grasshopper that full employment is 5% & below. Too many job openings, not enough skilled, or, unskilled workers/legal available.

    Agreed. Pelosi calls & requests that he "fold." The same in' palsied who wants him not only impeached, but, imprisoned. He immediately acquiesces. Why? Easy, Pelosi & the Dems don't & won't have to live in the hole that the Dems are arranging as we speak. They'll be above the hole-behind Walls. And you know who else will be above said hole? President Trump & his children. & I told him this in Tweet yesterday.

    ---------

    & another thing:::He's in' around, but, they're waiting on him in New York. "Do anything, you mother er, just don't ever win the Presidency." What does he do? Leaves Clinton dead in the ground & places his hand on the Bible 2 months later. He thinks its a game. It ain't a game. He needs that statute of limitations to run for that 4 years after the first 4.

    He needs to start arranging a beach somewhere off shore that he, the kids, & Mel can sit on & earn that 20%. They ain't in' around.

    Same back at ya, Recky. I enjoy seeing///reading opposite views, that why I watch CNN & MSNBC. I never watch FOX. I enjoy being tortured. That in' Morning Joe starts 3AM here. I set my clock next to the couch, rise up & turn it on. Most of the time either he or Mika won't be there and it sucks then, but, when they're both there it's a gd riot. They start right in + that Willie guy drives me crazy too. They all are arranged there to punch buttons. That in' Joe, within 30 minutes I'm ready to fight.

    CNN and MSNBC are sensationalist, ratings-driven cable news, though. It's not going to give an accurate portrayal of the everyman on the "other side" any more than Fox will.

    I know, but, I still like getting riled up, + on CNN the women are bountiful & healthy. They got anew one now Susan Hennesey who is just a dynamo. It's her turn & she ignites...yadayadayada. I'm like in love. A lot of 'em on CNN are pregnant, heavy with child. I like that in a woman as long it ain't my wife...tee, hee. No skinny women on CNN. All are robust with nice rumps & heavy thighs. I want them to beat me like a red headed aged man on the precipice of geezership.
