TRUMP: To tell the truth

| December 11, 2019 12:00 AM

After all, what has he really done? These are facts, not political lies.

- President Trump spent his Thanksgiving visiting troops in Afghanistan.

- 3.5% unemployment at lowest since 1969

- New jobs surged by 266,000 in November

- Average hourly earnings rose by 3.1% from a year ago

- Average work week 34.4 hours

- Phase I deal with China: China will waive tariffs on some soybeans and pork shipments from the U.S.

- His administration has issued 65 percent fewer costly regulations than previous administration.

- $33 billion in net regulatory savings since taking office.

America is surging forward. How much better would it be if the lies for impeachment weren’t flying around?
