"We have the greatest economy in the history of this country."

No, you don't, you lying asshole!

When you get a 5% or 6% growth in wages, get back to us.

By the way, Bill Clinton "created" almost 24 million jobs during his eight years. Do you think you can break that record?

It's sad that somebody has to spend their time calling you out on your outrageous lies.

totally agree w/ you, no debate. The economy of today is nothing like other periods of economic prosperity we've experienced in the past. If anything, the economic engine of expansion is being stifled by the growing inequality of the 1% and the rest of us, or it at least is slowing down growth more than what is expected by the federal reserve, which is running out of tools to stimulate the economy (as the repugs are finding out w/ their stupid tax cut and jobs act of 2018).

Take care!
