Joy Reid's Awesome Reply to Junior's Thanksgiving Tweet

DonaldJTrumpJr:
Need something to discuss over #Thanksgiving dinner? Try this

Stock markets at all time highs
Lowest jobless claims since 73
6 TRILLION added to economy since Election
1.5M fewer people on food stamps
Consumer confidence through roof
Lowest Unemployment rate in 17 years




Joy Ann Reid:
I think people have already thanked President Obama for those things. Did your father thank him for handing off such a sound economy? Also, how many Russian operatives did you speak with during the campaign, and did they all offer Clinton dirt or just general assistance?

The media propped them up by rarely giving Obama any credit and allowing the lies to go unchallenged.

That the TRUE national unemployment numbers were always about 6% higher than reported. Ok....we'll still go by that 6% number you claim Trump.

No kidding, this lady seems to have forgotten that 45*s coronation wasn't until January. Some of the people who called in were equally clueless, claiming they thought 45* had done a great job in turning the economy around. 45* has taken credit for other people's work and accomplishments all his life and the repuke party certainly won't do anything to change that.

20. Adding $6 Trillion to stock market capitalization

is not the same as adding that amount to the economy. The top 20% of households own a whopping 92% of all stocks.

we are due for a correction. The market has been climbing for 8 years. How fast and steep the market drops is the question.

That will change as they destroy the economy. Trump wants to break up the USA and steal everything.
