But not to you. Because you haven't found out how much of a raise you're getting. A big one and it's going good. Mediocre and it's not. Who would have thought the US economy all depended on the generosity of your boss.
No. Why on earth would they? But you support this 'repatriation'. So please fill in the details for those of us who know it's just Trump telling people want they want to hear. He hasn't thought it through and he's hoping you won't. So think it through and tell us how it's going to work.
What I make has nothing to do with how much things cost. Making more and having to spend more for the basics doesn’t make a great economy. My raise has nothing to do with the economy. It’s because I’ve been promoted and took on more responsibility, it’s not a cost of living increase. It won’t change my opinion of the economic conditions at all
Hopefully he will change requirements for asylum seekers. Biden already has and cut arrests at the border by 40%. Next work on enforcing the law.

You're getting a raise because your company is doing well enough so that they can. Companies going down the tube don't start promoting people and giving 'substantial raises' (your term). And you said that the economy was bad because some people's wages have not kept up with inflation. So there's a bad economy yet your company is doing well and you're going to get a chunk of extra money - no doubt whatsoever in my mind a percentage that will beat inflation hands down.
But we're not talking about that. He's going to 'repatriate' millions. From here:
No, it has nothing to do with the economy, My supervisor had a nervous breakdown it’s a stressful job so I had to step up and take her place. We are a non profit organization anyway
People getting raises greater than the rate of inflation has nothing to do with how the economy is determined to be doing? Forget the economy, younseem bemused by the concept. Try repatriating millions of immigrants.
How does that work? I was puzzled about it before. 'We'll vote for him and then we'll find out what he's going to do.' So he will have earned your vote if he does something with which you agree. But he won't if he doesn't.
Bull dust! It's not one. It's not hundreds. Or even a few thousand. That might nust be in the realm of possibility. It's millions. It's. Simply. Not. Possible.
You've said he would improve a tanking economy. It ain't tanking. He lied to you. And you've offered nothing that he has said that will likely improve the economy. You mentioned immigration. He said he will remove millions from US soil. You have been asked how this is possible. Where would they be sent? Who would receive them? How would it be done? What would it cost? What are the implications for the economy?
Nope. He has literally said that he will get rid of millions. You have no idea how he could possibly do that and zero idea what the implications would be. That is very plain indeed.
You've said that people thought that the economy was in bad shape. You have been proved wrong. You've been asked what Trump has promised to do to improve it and have offered nothing at all. It's been pointed out what his policy is re immigration and you have no answer. He is lying to you.
