Again, you can't create jobs & economic growth when you treat 16% of the workforce as lazy freeloaders who don't have real jobs. The math just doesn't work. It's a central reason the GOP has botched the economy everywhere & every time it's in power for decades now.

There's no rule of journalism that says you have to show a president telling lie after lie – uncorrected – many times a day. That's a decision that corporate media are making for purposes other than delivering the truth to the public.
