Drich is just another 'I-got-mine-so-go-fuck-yourselves'-style Christian. He doesn't give two shits about the body politic. It could all burn, as far as he's concerned. Just give him his tax cuts and let Jesus sort out the rest of the mess.

That is what the Dominionist traitors are working towards. Their imaginary friend will come back with a little help from them.

They always harp on the times when the Republican presidents briefly lead to periods of prosperity, but never talk about how the aftermath ends up costing a hell of a lot in the long run, like the prosperous years of the Roaring Twenties which ultimately lead to the Great Depression and the New Dawn in America that came with Reagan that ultimately started a chain of dominoes that finally collapsed in 2008. Or maybe the Eisenhower boom that existed because he knew that leaving the New Deal programs that FDR and Truman started alone was a good idea.

Trump is taking job growth down the hill
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

Do you consider the quality of job growth numbers isn't just about the raw numbers, and could be tied to unemployment? If you have high unemployment, you need big job growth numbers to get it to where you want it to be. If you have record low unemployment, you only need enough job growth to maintain record low unemployment. To come to the conclusion people are meant to come to, you'd have to believe that going from 8% to 5% unemployment is the same as going from 5% to 2%. Or if you want to take it to the extreme to show how undeniably stupid it is, it would have to be the same as going from 2% to -1%, which isn't even possible that I'm aware of.
This is one of the dishonest things media does. They put up a graph like this, and just let people draw their own shoddy conclusions. It's the dihydrogen monoxide bit. And it's used all the time. They purposefully withhold implications to the facts they dole out because they know people don't have the ability to say "Hmm, this isn't enough information for someone with my knowledge to draw a conclusion."

So even when Trump is losing he's actually winning. Beside didn't Trump say that Obama was a disaster and especially Trumpists who repeat this over and over again like mantra and now when there was lower job growth during Trump's era they change their tune to "Well, economy wasn't that bad so there weren't many jobs needed."

I'm not saying anyone is winning or losing. I'm saying your chart is stupid, and with a bit of critical thinking, you should be able to figure out why.

So he couldn't create more jobs then "Muslim terrorist from Kenya" that was destroying US, which makes him, what, worst then a terrorist?

Like I said. A bit of critical thinking would be enough. Alas, it was not meant to be.
