Here's how the jobs market has been going, if you want to know



I'd suggest it's nothing to shout about.

Its doing this.



And if you want to compare it to previous presidents, its like this.

Agree. And that will probably be Trumps greatest legacy.

If you didn't like the answer, it doesn't mean you can keep asking for the one you like.
It's behind a paywall and I'm not turning off my ad blocker. This is why people ask for detailed facts not links.

As if the first 100 days is even relevant as a comparison! Well, it does show no change in initial unemployment claims since the day he took over from Obama.

I don't get this at all. Yes. I can look at all the assortment of the preferred links you guys post up. I can & do of course read anything , anywhere about anything , anywhere from a huge variety of sources . However I was asking you for your thoughts and opinions. Attempting to engage with you.

We might find Trump hits the nuke button, most left wingers are hoping for that, but we also might find that Trump blows the political landscape out of the water. He is not conventional, he is not from a political background, he doesn't play by the rules. This in my opinion is great going forward for the future of politics.

He will no doubt make some bad decisions along with way, but he will also make some good ones. Is building a wall along one of the most porous, drug riddled borders on earth really a bad thing?
Interesting & a good piece of writing which clearly states your opinion.

It didn't actually answer my initial question to you where I asked what results you felt DTrump and admin had so far achieved for his nation and the world , which was your claim, but lets move on.

I would like to ask you for your opinion of Trump's stance on the Paris Climate Change Accord. Good move for the world or bad move for the world?

Focus on the purpose of the wall itself, not something CNN wants you to believe.
Is this comment for me? If so it is rather off the mark with regard to my reading and viewing habits. Also my thought processes.

I am actually wanting to hear what you think as you seem someone that honestly seems to feel that the world with the present USA admin is moving forward in a good direction . I have taken on board that you think this change will make a shift in the political global status quo . I am not sure where you stand on this shift for all people , nations + the environment of the one world that we all share .

There you go. He can't be all bad can he now?

I did not say its moving forward in the right direction. That is too black and white of a statement to give it any depth.

You are asking about environmental issues now. That's a massive topic. So in brief, (another air polluting flight to catch) it depends on what your opinion is on the environment. Given I am just about to catch a flight for the 5th time this week with 3 to go, I am hardly one promoting clean energy use here.

I think it's got to the stage where you either recognise how much of a dangerous disaster area trump is, or your off with the fairies and no amount of debate is going to bring you back down to earth.

Anyone else expecting trump to declare war on/bomb/nuke someone before the handcuffs can lock?

The semi detached adjoining mine was sold and I had a short chat when the new owner moved in. He said he supported Liverpool FC, which bought a smile to my Liverpool fan's heart.

Unfortunately, he's turned into a complete nightmare. He has a huge arsenal of weapons that he proudly displays in the window of his front room. He uses his front garden as a toilet and his back garden as a rubbish dump. The blowflies and their maggots have invaded my home. The whole area stinks. My street has become a no-go area, I'm embarrassed to tell people where I live. Anyone who objects to his actions is met with brandished weapons and torrents of irrational abuse. The local Police and Council freely admit that he is a risk to lives and health, yet he's permitted to carry on.

But I'm happy! Imagine the cluster f*** if he'd been a Manchester United supporter

I'm happy to admit that Zulu's non sequitur beats mine hands down.

Well, Hillary did rip into Trump during the campaign for being "too friendly" towards North Korea.

Nope, Zulu still wins. You'll have to share second prize with me.
