    The multiple felonies he’s charged with seem to disagree.

    He better call Obama and ask him how he built it before Trump destroyed it.

    The only solution to gun violence is more guns. The only answer to stupidity in Trumps American is more stupidity from Trump and his supporters. Its a cornucopia of ignorance and racism from the right.

    What did Trump do for the economy exactly other than hurt our exports and farmers?

    Your kind wants to hurt people of color and the left. You are bringing the violence.

    The right is the side of racial hate. If you don't know that, you need to wake up

    I know the only way to deal with lawlessness is to deal with it on the terms the rioters understand. BTW, there are plenty of white protestors.

    I don't look at this as a race issue. I look at this as a criminal issue.

    Ohhh thanks for throwing in the key scary word of the day ‘socialist’.

    You would know Obama’s policies created the great economy trump later wrecked if you were capable of independent critical though. Alas that is lost on trumpeters like yourself. Here let me explain it to you in pictures. I can dumb them down some more like they have to for your idiot in chief to understand if these are too complex for you.

    Actually black children start with significanltly less equity owned by parents than white children in terms of median households.

    It's 100% a race issue.

    And protestors aren't rioters. Many of the rioters are from the right looking to cause trouble.

    But you are supporting violence against protestors - which is pretty sick.

    So then by that this guy was assaulting people and the act of shooting him was an act of self-defense

    Did you like the employment numbers and low end wage earners got the biggest raises for the first time in forever.

    I know the industries we do work for. Construction and elderly are booming. Sorry that you apparently haven't gotten to experience the boom first hand.

    He gave corporations a trillion dollar tax cut that they could invest in stock buy backs to boost market numbers.
    It looks great for Trump, but it's paid for by the National Debt.

    Quick. Post to me the gdp and employment numbers 1.5 years before 2008 were we had one of the largest economic crashes in American history.

    Trump's economy is fueled by unsustainable low fed interest rates and consumer debt. Here is something you should know that happened before Coivd in 2019.

    The reality is for the past 50 years real wages have no were kept up with real median household debt even under Obama.

    I'm an architect and construction isn't booming or it least is very uneven. I know my work has slowed down quite abit, I wouldn't be here so much if it wasn't. I'm not in TX but it sounds like TX isn't doing that great.

    https://www.dallasnews.com/business...fw-construction-starts-still-lag-2019-levels/
    D-FW Construction activity lags 2019 levels by double digits
    Nationwide construction starts were down 15% through the first seven months of the year.

    https://www.houstonchronicle.com/bu...construction-starts-sink-in-July-15522991.php
    Houston-area construction starts sink in July
    The value of construction projects begun in July in the Houston area dropped 14 percent year-over-year, with both residential and non-residential project showing declines, a new Dodge Data & Analytics report showed.

    Also since you said "elderly" The last major project I was on was luxury condos for the elderly. That project was put on hold at the start of April. The developers said they were going to reassess the market.

    What were the fed rates under Obama. I seem to remember Trump griping about the fed raising rates before Covid-19 hit and they lowered them back to Obama level rates.

    Good for you. Personally for me I've been buoyed by the stock market that even with my architecture practice slow I'm not taking a hit to my standard of living.

    That doesn't mean that the economy including construction is sound.

    I don't do construction for nursing homes but we do monthly accounts and there are 3 new accounts of new Nursing homes starting by December 1st. Also we are going to be starting doing elderly community apts in Dallas/New Braunfels and Pearland by the first of the year.
