Lol, nobody is gonna forget the first President he does not need to name stuff after himself. If he was a random one term President then maybe.

All books aren't non-fiction. Trump likes to say he fired them, and plenty like to say they quit or wanted to. Who's telling the truth? Did they quit for the reasons they say they did? Lot's of book deals for people who like to bash Trump, that aren't selling all that great, and coincidentally plenty of books being taken off shelves written by conservatives as of lately, especially if they sell well. Hmm. I wonder how many people Trump sits down with and hires personally?

Someone mentioned Andrew Yang a few pages back. He's finally getting mainstream coverage https://youtu.be/l9RNdvtuAfA.

Economic analysts are expecting a growth of 1.4-2.1% this year. While not a recession yet, that way below the 3.x% Trump is expecting and that the US had since 2014. The outlook is even more negative, with growth dropping below 1% in 2020.

What I fear is that the recession will only be felt after the next election, and then the Democrats get blamed for it if they win.

And let's not forget Mount Rushmore. Washington's name isn't there, but his face is there for everyone to see.

I wouldn't call it senility, though, just an overly inflated ego. If he where to create Cities, they would most probably be all named Trump Town, Trump City, and so on.

Barr going to be investigating the spying against the trump team,mueller report coming within the next week or so, followed by the IG report. Politics about to get super heated heading into the next election. Going to be interesting to see when the Democrats start going to blows with each other to really kick start each of their campaigns, there's a lot of them and someone has to go. Debates should be good when the field is narrowed down a bit

Now if we are going to talk about if Trump mental state is above 3rd grade level then you have to listen to him on Fox News talking about the boarder.

Lol, the fact that people continue to make excuses for this man believing he should ever be in a meeting trying to convey his ideals with that word salad of nonsense just amazes me.

I also love this word salad of nonsense as well.
"We built a lotta wall. A lotta wall. And its two walls. You know, when we rip down and old wall, and then replace it, it's called 'a new wall'. And that's what we've done. A lot of wall is going up and every place we build the wall it's less and less."

Lol, you have to wonder about the people who attend meetings where Trump is speaking and its goes down like the above or world leaders having to stomach listening to him talk thinking, should they get a translator to help with this rambling.
I really cannot wait when Trump is on stage having to debate again. Now that the name calling and grade school wit is old news, it will be interesting to see him rambling like and idiot and people forcing themselves to be the Trump whisperer again.

The funny thing is, I believe Trump administration will have the most books written concerning the inner workings and they will all be entertaining reads.  So far, whether you read a book, hear the rumblings or interviews the common thread of them all is a disorganized cluster F***.  The thing is, this isn't anything new since this is a common theme before Trump was elected with his business.  

Also a book selling great or now has nothing to do with the analysis within the books.

As for who Trump personally hires, I would say if he doesn't have direct input in the hiring of top positions then he probably doing what he does best, nothing.  Its like the report we heard in the beginning of his presidency when people would put papers in front of him to sign and he did without reading them.  Hell, we have even recent situations where within his budget plan he has nuked funding for the special olympics and the Great Lakes since he has been in office only to suddenly find out it was his administration gutting those programs.  He even tried to take credit for not gutting them when congress always ignored his budget any way.  Its this kind of lazy stupidity that is accepted today by people who trust in Trump that is comical.

Well you could say that wages are better because of this little nugget.

Or it could be this nugget as well.  

https://www.hrdive.com/news/mercer-wage-increases-projected-to-remain-flat-in-2019/530416/

This is more where I am at as pay increase has not spiked at all.  Actually when I started working at the Job I am at, 5% pay increase per year was the bottom you could get.  After there recessions it when down to nothing, during Obama term it gain back to 5% but that ended up being the max and now under Trump nothing has changed.  If anything you see more 1.5 to 2% then 5%.

I believe the key thing is that on the very top end, the savings companies are getting are going to the Top execs and very much not trickling down to lower teir employees.

As far as wages, States have increase the minimum wage which is affecting those stats

As for international relations, We have some more great Tariffs coming from Trump administration which seems to still only punish American business and gain nothing.

Had to watch that clip and it didn't disappoint.

The savings are certainly partly going to the top executives, but the other, bigger part nowadays is going to stock buybacks. Those were highly regulated until the 80's since it's an easy way to drive the stocks while doing effectively nothing, and can be easily used for insider trading if you know in advance about them. But during this decade more and more is spent on buybacks, as it drives their stocks to extreme heights.

Trumps tariffs can't work because the imports are mostly stuff the US don't produce at all or in insufficient quantities themselves instead of products others just produce a bit cheaper, as a result it hits the consumers and Industrials as they have to pay more.
