the s&p 500 was at about 800. that was the level of that exchange. take a look at where it went through the entire obama administration. this is until donald trump took office. if you want to just take a straight edge of some sort and if you were to draw a continue use upward line, you d be where we are today. it stands at 2,100. you live by the sword, you die by the sword. if you want to talk about stock market gains, we have had one for 113 straight months. that conversation with hannity was just weird. how are gary cohn, how are steve mnuchin possibly going to defend president trump s statements last night? and you do have some smart economists. you ve got guys like larry lindsey who have said i think the tax reform plan will work. but it gets muddied and destroyed by the president s own hand with nonsense talking about stock market gains wiping out the national debt.
with what robert said. it does appear that, you know, she was in violation of espn s standard of conduct for employees. but put that aside for a second. what i find more troubling about this is the president s reaction. i worked for barack obama. and that man was subjected to the most ugly, hateful attacks you can imagine. i remember for years there was in one personality at a news network, at a media network who called the president a racist, launched a racially-tinged crusade against him to undermine his legitimacy. the president never complained, never called for that man to be fired. it turned out that guy who did all those things and said all those things about president trump was donald trump. so, you know, if you live by the sword, you die by the sword. i think donald trump was someone who was fine at launching these ugly attacks at the president,
t part is because of automation. the jobs aren t coming back ablgd the administration hasn t addressed this and that s not going away. it s going to continue. see it continues. live and die by the sword. go to vegas on them every month. look at wage growth. same time last year waging had d gone down during the obama, and six months of trump. weekly earnings in the united states gone up $5. a good sign for any president. if people feel it in their pocketbook not worries about the number of coal jobs. personal situation is better, you get happy. that should help a president. sure. we can have a pretty long debate how much credit does the president actually deserve for the numbers we saw this morning? do an industry analysis. bottom line that 4.3 number is a number most people can wrap their heads around and we talk so much about the president not able to stay on message. he s easily distracted.
as i ve always said about jobs numbers. you live and die by the sword. when they re good, they re good. get a boost. go bad, you have to own that, too. i do think that trump is not wrong to make sure that his supporters know, even when incremental progress is made. even if not as big as he hoped for when he promised them that. it s kind of like a base maintenance tool that most politicians would be wise to use more often, but at the same time, like you said. in six months, you know, if we re talking about a couple hundred coal jobs, that s not going to completely turn around coal country in most parts of this country, and ultimately, that issue needs to be dealt with in order for trump to have a really good argument going into his own re-election. the economy is usually a president s best friend, but this president is still under water, asked approve or disapprove of the economy. why is that? i ve come to think, i think a
seriously, why doesn t ruffalo accelerate diversity byac rejecting roles and allow people of color to replace him? this guy has been in like 70 movies. ruffalo s own selfish desire tos saturate the marketplace makes him an obstacle for diversity. he is racist. in fact, all of those roles were opportunities for gays, lesbians, men and women of color, that he took for himself.t his callous appropriation of such roles deprived others of meaningful work. he s a selfish selfish old white male, and hollywood should stop hiring him. i would circulate a petition, but unlike marco, i have a life. shouldn t he live by the sword, die by the sword, dana? dana: it was a great suggestion. he may be wearing a hair short tonight, saying, greg gutfeld is right. he is and probably realize that about himself. greg: exactly. you actually feel that there are too many people and a certain
