I work as a machinist, and the company I work for makes a lot of parts for the military. Since the election this company has bought 2 new incredibly large CNC milling machines and the tooling needed for a new $30 million Govt. contract. They have also hired 4 new people in the last week to get this machinery up and running and to operate equipment once it is running.
This company has also purchased 2 new CNC lathes since Trump took office, to manufacture other parts needed for this project......this means overtime for me and all the others who work with me, and others will be hired for the deburring, assembly, shipping, and all the other jobs involved in completing this project.
This one project does not include the many other projects they have bid on since Trump announced he would be ramping up military spending, so while I can't comment on all the other jobs in this country MFG. jobs in New Hampshire seem to be on the uptick, and for me and my life after all these years of MFG. going downhill and good paying jobs, or any mfg. jobs, hard to find, being able to look around and see several jobs available in local machine shops at competitive pay scales with good benefits......is a good sign.
So at this point, looking at the local landscape, Trump is having positive effects in my world, and I can say that my small portion of America is on the upswing........I won't say "GREAT AGAIN", but ask me again in a few months and I might

and as far as I'm concerned America IS the greatest country in the world.......Just in case anyone was misinterpreting my statements.......

It is entertaining to see how each side interprets data from the SAME source...Sean Spiceitup even laughed when questioned about the Feb, 2017 job numbers and unemployment rate and said, jokingly I think, that the numbers are REAL now, but fake when Obama was President, just as his boss has been saying all along....(see the litany of statements by Trump after positive new job growth numbers were reported by the Obama administration, posted by dstieger above, #9)

I do think that our economy is getting healthier, the jobs data is an indicator of that. I also believe the recovery began many years ago, despite opposition from some who insisted America was in the dumpster...imagine where we'd be if both sides at least tried to pull from the same side of the rope...

My (too understated?) point really had nothing to do with jobs, nor unemployment. (Seems that there might be a little correlation, however.)

I'm simply quite amused by Trump dismissing data sources that don't agree with his alternate facts of the day, but embracing those same data feeds when they support today's chosen facts....

You have 503 lines of quotes concerning unemployment.

How freakin subtle do you want to be??

As for Trump? He wasn't the one embracing the job creation stats.

And (and this isn't aimed at you dstieger) please understand one thing very clearly.
When the term "alternative fact" is uttered, it is impossible to take the statement seriously.
Utterly and completely impossible.
It's a made up term by the media. And when it's used it simply proves the media hold on all things liberal.

Stop with your real life viewpoints!

Last month I was on the west coast attending a trade show for the medical device industry.
I've been several times to this annual show over the past 6 years.

This is the FIRST year that people were talking optimistically about the market. About expanding their manufacturing. About not fearing cut backs.
It's early still. And maybe Trumps douche nozzle personality will be the demise of our country. but in the meantime American manufacturing will be growing their businesses and doing their part.

And if I'm honest about it? I think about half of those optimists didn't vote for him.
Which is an even greater testament to the business climate.

The first time I personally heard the term alternative fact was from Kelly Ann Conway.

That is correct, and Conway said it with all sincerity in an interview with CNN, attributing "alternative facts" to Trump, as if she believed he could alter the truth...Chuck Todd's indignant reaction was priceless...he looked like she farted in his face...

Listen guys... you can say Kelly Ann Conway popularized the term "alternative facts" first all you want. Bit tails just using alternative facts when he believes the media coined it. He isn't wrong... he's just using different facts.... differently...

I had a TURD this morning flushed it down the toilet. Does that make me a Democrat or a Republican ?
