I feel eel like this board is inhabited with a middle schooler. Just ignore it. It's pretty laughable, actually sad, that someone feels the need to troll every post in P&R instead of engaging in discussion. #cryingface 1 Link to comment

My silent guesses before were Ric with a new user name because he disagrees with anything reasonable, and teach just for the fun of it. 2 Link to comment

(ok, it does not include most of 2018, but this is a Trump claim so I’m guessing the line is just slightly steeper than the others). Anyhow, thanks Obama. Link to comment

I guess he is correct that 2018 may have been the best 1 year growth in manufacturing jobs since 1997. But it clearly shows an upward trend since 2010 so to me, it's like the SEC claiming football dominance because Alabama wins another championship. Link to comment

I don’t think what he’s bragging about is completely on the graph yet but that line probably moves up a little steeper. I could have made that post without even looking it up because everything he brags about ends up being the same story. 2 Link to comment

Migrants can be seen marching toward Border Patrol agents by the hundreds, according to video obtained by ABC News. Smugglers dug a series of seven holes, only a few feet long beneath the steel border fence, with hundreds going beneath the wall and a smaller number clambering over it, according to CBP. Not only was the steel wall ineffective, but CBP didn't catch them - the immigrants turned themselves over to CBP. And here's an image to show it's not some flimsy fence: 1 Link to comment

I'm almost certain that there are engineers out there that could figure something out. 1 Link to comment
