  1. I’ve generally not trusted the government’s reported unemployment rate but I do believe unemployment under President Trump to be far lower than the rates under the previous four presidents. He actually cares.

  2. After the last recession there was an expectation of a rapid rebound, called a V shaped recovery. Then after the financial leadership of Obama, everyone invented an excuse for that not occurring. Doing nothing would have brought us this years ago.
