I'm behind him 100% now. He is doing really good things for this country. I know sensitive shits don't like what he says, but that is because they are not used to a politician being honest with the media. He is killing it in his policy decisions. Especially the foreign ones.
And deregulation

We don't disagree often, but we do here.
I think we agree quite often, I think in nuances so that probably comes across as disagreeing or wishy-washy when in reality I'm just doing my best to try and find (the whole) truth (& nothing but) wherever I can and not be close minded toward changing my view when warranted

Trump says he hopes George Floyd 'is looking down' and celebrating jobs report: 'This is a great day for him'

Trump says he spoke to George Floyd's family

President Trump on Friday strode to a lectern in the Rose Garden to tout an unexpectedly good jobs report that showed the U.S. unemployment rate falling in May to 13.3 percent, as 2.7 million people who had been furloughed due to the coronavirus crisis returned to work.
During a 45-minute, stream-of-consciousness, often rambling speech, Trump all but declared victory in his administration’s response to both the pandemic and protests over the death of George Floyd, calling the jobs report a “tremendous tribute to equality.”

The president said he hoped Floyd, an unarmed black man who was killed by police in Minneapolis last week, would be looking down from heaven and approve of the job he is doing on the economy.

“Hopefully George is looking down right now and saying, ‘This is a great thing that’s happening for our country,’” Trump said. “This is a great day for him. It’s a great day for everybody.”

But according to data released by the Bureau of Labor Statistics on Friday morning, the unemployment rate for black Americans actually increased slightly, from 16.7 percent to 16.8 percent. Unemployment for Asian-Americans jumped from 14.5 percent to 15 percent. Overall, the number of permanent job losers — those who have not been on temporary layoffs — continued to rise, increasing by 295,000 in May to 2.3 million.

Pressed by a reporter about how the jobs report could be considered a “victory” for black Americans or Asian-Americans, or what his plan is to address systemic racism among U.S. police, the president again pointed to the reduction in unemployment.
“What’s happening in our country, and what’s been happening, is the greatest thing for race relations, for the African-American community, for the Asian-American, for the Hispanic American community, for women, for everything,” Trump said. “Because our country is so strong, and that’s what my plan is.”

Earlier in his speech, Trump made a passing reference to the nationwide protests against police violence triggered by Floyd’s death, claiming his call to use the National Guard to quell the unrest in places like Washington, D.C., and Minneapolis had worked.
“We want to get all of this finished,” the president said.

Trump talked at length about how surprising the job numbers were to economists and to business-show anchors. Although Friday’s figures were unexpected, there were no suggestions they were inaccurate.

And it's a lie. Why do reporters keep doing this shit? They have taken things he says out of context for a dunk multiple times instead of just reporting on the actual dumbass things he says and does.

The media isn’t interested in doing their job. They’re activists, not journalists.

And yet I bet a million people on facebook are talking about how insensitive and horrible Trump is for saying Floyd cares about job numbers.
