Hey, if you're proud of 6% unemployment, then you should definitely give yourself a high five.
Less than 5% and steadily dropping when leaving office. As opposed to 7% and skyrocketing when taking office.
As was widely argued at the time, there is a difference between dropping unemployment levels due to people dropping out of the workforce due to frustration and/or applying for disability because they cannot find a job and actual jobs being available.

Admittedly anecdotal evidence: in the Obama economy, jobs in my field were extremely tight and paid low(ish) wages. You had to know someone to find a job or be willing to accept wages below your education and experience level to be employed. Over the last year, I have gotten at least two unsolicited e-mails per week (usually more) from agencies and independent contractors so desperate for people to fill their jobs that they are offering signing bonuses and allowing people to set their own hours in an effort to lure them away from their current jobs. One company I have been consulting with has been 30-35 workers short for over a year now and have had to raise starting wages twice to get people to take jobs.

Big difference.
Good to hear you understand your experience is anecdotal. Here's the U6 numbers that take the folks who leave the job market into account:

Yup. It couldn’t just be that people find Hillary so objectionable that they shut her down. Russians are much more plausible.

Nearly 9 million votes were cast for someone other than Trump.

And how much does that matter?
Hint: It is spelled the same as “zero”

Nothing about Drumpfuck's UN speech today?

9/25/18 - Immediately after getting laughed at by world leaders at the UN - "Didn't expect that reaction but that's ok".

2 or so hours later when asked about it - "Well, that was meant to get some laughter".

August 2014 - "We need a President who isn't a laughing stock to the entire World. We need a truly great leader, a genius at strategy and winning. Respect!"

April 2011 - “The United States has become the laughing stock and the whipping post for the rest of the world, whether we like it or not, and we don’t like it, the world is laughing at us. They’re laughing at our leaders, they’re taking advantage of us, and it’s a disgrace.”

Nothing can surprise us anymore.
Having the rest of the world laugh at our president is so shaming, no one wants to comment.

There used to be a thread about the national embarrassment, guess we have become numb to it.

I prefer to focus on the numbers. The rest doesn’t matter as much.

Just print more money.
There is a reason Gary Cohn bailed out.
