GOOD TRUMP NEWS

[Rogue One]

none of his good moves have gotten any press
I would like a thread with good Trump news. It's tough to find no doubt about it.
The good things I hear he does aren't really triumphs.

JOBS AND WAGES SURGED IN DECEMBER
By Kevin Ryan

The economy ended the year with a booming jobs report that far exceeded expectations. Nonfarm payrolls surged by 312,000 in December, nearly double the 176,000 new jobs that economists had been expecting.

In addition to the big job gains, wages jumped 3.2% from a year ago and 0.4% over the previous month, also well above expectations. The year-over-year increase is tied with October for the best since April 2009.

“The far bigger than expected 312,000 jump in non-farm payrolls in December would seem to make a mockery of market fears of an impending recession,” Paul Ashworth, chief U.S. economist at Capital Economics, said in a note. He added that the report “suggests the US economy still has considerable forward momentum.”

Manufacturing also tuned in a solid 32,000 gain for the month and 284,000 new positions for the year, a 37% increase from the previous year.

Retail added 92,000 in 2018, reversing the loss of 29,000 in 2017.

The jobless rate ticked up slightly to 3.9% for the right reason as 419,000 new workers entered the workforce, driving the labor force participation rate increased to 63.1%, the highest level since 2012.

Previous months also saw positive revisions, adding to the upbeat tone for the year. November saw its disappointing 155,000 original report revised up to 176,000, while October's count went from 237,000 to 274,000, for a net gain of 58,000 from the previous tallies.

Investors welcomed the strong employment data, as volatility had jolted stock and bond markets recently over concerns of slowing global growth. The Dow Jones Industrial Average was soaring, up by 636 points as of 10:30am.

I mean some Good Trump News for some people in this country is:
Dividing the country and making them angry about anything and everything, basically doing everything but publicly green lighting white supremacy.
Ignoring N.Korean missile launches and successfully blinding his base about it so they don't talk about it.
Distracting from the gun issues instead of working on a common ground to protect the people.
Huge tax breaks for the people who don't need it and possibly causing another recession similar to Reagan's in the 80's.
Making Fox News become even more successful and dumbing down their viewers even further with their propaganda so that they can be more taken advantage of in the future.
Basically telling the public the trade war with China isn't as good of an idea as I thought it was, but f*** it we're continuing again after December.

Are these the news bits you were looking for? Yeah, that's some winning there for sure. Just depends on what hills you belong on, I guess.

I'm still waiting for this good news...

So far Rogue is "celebrating" things that haven't been settled yet.

Trump's Tariff Taxes are still red hot, electronics tariffs are going to hurt Q4 shopping (Greg's stocks are gunna suffer).
NK is still chugging along with their nuclear weapons, defying Trump's deal.
And recently jobs numbers under performed because of China tariffs.

I meant news like "Trump takes climate serious, forces McConnell on Senate vote on Carbon Credits".

Obamacare

Trump didn't repeal Obamacare — he accidentally bolstered it!

Trump came into office vowing to repeal Obamacare — and even took the law to court when that failed in Congress. But his most significant imprint on the Affordable Care Act was an accidental boost that happened when he stumbled into pouring billions of extra federal dollars into subsidizing Americans’ coverage.

The move: House Republicans had tried for years to cut off subsidies that helped low-income Obamacare enrollees with the co-pays, co-insurance and deductibles that come with their health plans. In 2017, Trump finally did it through administrative means after the GOP effort to replace the law fell apart — and he immediately drew intense outcry from Democrats and policy experts who called the move “sabotage.”

The impact: The health exchanges didn’t collapse, as Trump had hoped. Instead, health plans and states quickly figured out a way to claw back the federal dollars they lost: They built the costs of the subsidies into premiums for Obamacare’s benchmark “silver” policies. This meant that premiums for these “silver” plans spiked and as a result, the premium subsidies the government had to pay for low-income enrollees vastly increased. The concept, known as “silver-loading,” grew government subsidizing of the exchanges by upwards of $20 billion per year.

The upshot: While Trump’s moves made Obamacare plans increasingly unaffordable for the unsubsidized, Democrats quickly tamped down their criticisms since it accomplished their goal of significantly boosting funding for Obamacare."

Coronavirus

Trump failed to provide workplace guidance, making safety harder for workers.
No vaccination plan.

This one was the main cause that Trump lost his re-eletion.
