It’s 6 months of contraction… and we’ve had none.
But that wasn’t ■■■■■■■■ on America, that was the truth, right?
Yep, its real simple. Its based on the GDP, if it goes negative 2 quarters we have a recession.
The trick is GDP can be adjusted and we may already be in one once adjustments come in, that is what happened in 2009. But I feel we are still in the black as far as GDP goes.
6 actually.
Right, 2 consecutive quarters.
Did you read the article…
" But it also was hit by forces that aren’t entirely within Trump’s control, such as oil prices and a global economic slowdown."
…and yes, it’s partly due to Trump’s willingness to take on the socialist/ fascist govt in China on trade… He supports democratic republics as the worlds future.
Yep… I stand corrected…
No it isn’t. Get a real source.
Why do yall keep pushing the lie that the media was asserting we’re in a recession?
He did supply one.
It’s up to you to prove differently.
That was a short week.
It’s still higher then Obama average monthly job growth of 120.800 jobs per month.
And that’s true, in the ‘‘maker’’ side of the economy, businesses like manufacturing, mining where hiring is slowing and even decreasing robotics will have the most effect.
In the ‘‘serving’’ robotics will have less of an effect.
‘‘In August, factories added just 3,000 workers, while mining and logging lost 5,000 jobs. On the service side, education and health category experienced a gain of 32,000 and employment in professional and business services was up 37,000.’’ NYT.
Now that Lord Trump is in office
Let me guess, that includes his first year where he was sworn in and we were losing 800k jobs a month
lies, damn lies and statics.

Thank you Capt. Obvious. 
Does it matter? The fact that Trump still has a higher monthly job creation then Obama…and libs insured us that under Obama there as almost full employment.
Yes. Context and history matter in the real world.
