Let’s All Drink Together

What is she drinking? Or perhaps given that she is from the San Francisco Bay Area, I should say, “What is she smoking?” Sometimes I wonder just how dumb some of these politicians think that the general public is. Now granted that a lot of those in California are clueless, but Ms. Pelosi is speaking to the entire country when she opines on her Twitter account.
Her most recent tweet came in response to the June Jobs Report, which stated that in June, 2018 employers created 213,000 new jobs (22,000 more than expected), and of those created, 36,000 were manufacturing jobs. Now try matching what the numbers actually showed with what former Speaker of the House said. She tweeted, “The June #Jobs Report shows what is at stake from the brewing storm of rising health costs, spiraling trade uncertainty & an economy being hollowed out to enrich big corporations & the wealthiest 1 percent. Americans deserve better than the GOP’s raw deal.”
Huh?? Did she read the same jobs report that I did? What is she drinking?
The same jobs report stated that Hispanic unemployment was at 4.6%, which is an all time low. Similarly black unemployment was 6.5%, which is the second lowest level ever. Also wages rose 2.7%, which is only slightly below the 2.8% expected. However, Ms. Pelosi tweeted the following, “Corporate America is on track to spend $1 trillion on dividends and stock buybacks, while announcing tens of thousands of layoffs, refusing to give workers a raise and raising costs for families.”
Huh! Did she read the same jobs report that I did? What is she drinking?
Now granted, only those on the left are going to be following Ms. Nancy on her twitter account, but stop and think what this implies. Stop and think what she is actually suggesting . . . “I realize that anyone who is regularly following me on Twitter does not have the time, or the inclination, or perhaps the smarts to read the June Jobs Report. Do not bother to read the same jobs report that I did. Let’s all drink together!”
