    Guess it depends what you consider A LOT. In November 2016 manufacturing employment was 689,500. In March 2019 it was all the way up to 701,400. So a gain of 11,900 or about 1.7 per cent over 2.5 years. A slower increase than the trend since 2010. Note the huge hollowing out of manufacturing jobs that occurred in Ohio under George H. Bush:https://fred.stlouisfed.org/series/OHMFGN

    Hey Pookie, did you hear what Biden's senior advisor Symone Sanders said?

    "we don't white men leading the democrat party"

    You ignore racism in your own party. You still have a governor from Virginia who wore blackface. Don't bring up racism again, hypocrite.

    Maybe, but that went into effect in Jan 1994, so it seems they held up pretty well for 6 years.

    So can RepubliKKKKans still claim Trump is not a racist? Robert E Lee was a traitor who took up arms against his country to fight for the institution of slavery. He lost and surrendered! How was he great? Donald Trump is a unapologetic RACIST plain and simple!!!!!! I will never understand how any self respecting Black man could EVER vote for him. Can you imagine if a presidential candidate or President came out and said Hitler was a great man or leader??? White and Jewish America would go CRAZY!!! Yet they say Blacks are too sensitive and won't let go of past mistakes made by Whites.

    Also, have you ever noticed how some Whites claim the Confederacy is part of history and should never be forgotten yet they want blacks to forget slavery, lynchings and Jim Crow? Why not have monuments of Whites hanging Blacks? It's part of "History".

    I think I have to agree with Mr Pookie on this one. As a Jewish person I could never associate or support anyone who admires Hitler or thinks he was a great leader. I would consider that person a racist. Therefore, I can clearly see why a blacks would be highly offended by someone who thinks Robert E Lee was a great person or leader. If you fought for or participated in the perpetuation of rape, murder, torture and enslavement of Blacks it disqualifies you from being great. That includes people like George Washington and Thomas Jefferson and yes...Robert E Lee. Anyone who admires such a person is a racist or they just don’t give a damn about the feelings of others.

    Those you mentioned were racist. I would agree with that. David Duke is a racist. I am not sure if Donald is a racist. He may be. Would you agree that Jesse Jackson is a racist? Louis Farrkahn? Is Illan Omar a racist?

    Trump cannot be a racist because he rejected hiring American because he can pay foreign guest workers a lot less.

    For the record, General Lee was an outstanding quality general. He did amazing things on the battlefield, tying the more powerful union armies in knots.

    But that's a different question from whether his is admirable or worthy of monuments. I mean I admire German tech in WW2, but I'm not interested in building a monumnet to the Me109.

    Trump literally said a judge of mexican background, born in the US, could not do his job or be impartial. He has done many other things similar. There is no question that your man is a racist. Farrakahn is a racist, yes. The others, eh. They are more politically anti-jewish than racists.

    Then you better condemn democrat FDR for honoring Robert E. Lee with a statue in 1936. He described Lee as "one of the greatest American Christians and one of our greatest American gentlemen..."

    You should also condemn all the Southern democrats who were against the Civil Rights Bill. Joe Biden has a senior advisor who doesn't want white men leading the democrat party. You dems always ignore your own.

    I believe in everything you just said EXCEPT you saying Trump is my man. He is a pretty bad person. To borrow from Flagpole, he is orange-tinged. He is a very unlikeable person. BUT, he is president.

    Still waiting for someone to take up my bet:

    1. If Trump wins I’ll post a video of me running down a crowded street with a “I Love Trump. M.A.G.A. for life!” Sign.

    2. If Trump loses you post a video of yourself with a “I’m a liberal. LGBTQ rights for life!” Sign.

    He has ZERO chance. The rust belt is lost.

    You just guaranteed a Trump loss. SO, since you just guaranteed him losing, if he wins you will buy me a new car. If he loses, no need for anything since you are 100% assured he will win. You on board with this? If he did lose, just to make it interesting, I will pay for you a meal at Dairy Queen.

    Biden & Bernie are your front runners. Both are too old. One is a socialist; the other represents the establishment with foot-in-mouth disease. Trump will wipe the floor with these two clowns in any debate.

    Methinks you put too much trust in polls. MIchigan is weird. It polled for HRC and then bernie won the primary and trump won the election. These things are not formulas.

    Yeah, I hear you. Not FDR's best moment. That was a mistake.

    Not sure about the advisor, I'd have to look into that.
