So in future discussions, you will accept The Hill, The New York Times and CNBC as solid sources of information, correct?

Article cites ADP, the private jobs consultant firm. ADP surveys anonymous businesses for hiring tendencies and then publishes an estimate a couple of days ahead of the official Department of Labor statistics. They are notoriously inaccurate.

Notice that ADP first predicted 200,000 jobs added in October, then they said 235,000 were added. In fact the official Department of Labor stats were 261,000 jobs added.

Still, job creation for 2017 under Trump lags job creation in 2016 under Obama. And 2015. And 2014. And 2013. And 2011. But hey, he's doing a great job on creating jobs!

2011: +1.48 million jobs
2012: +1.26 million
2013: +1.57 million
2014: +2.01 million
2015: +1.65 million
2016: +1.83 million
2017: +1.37 million

This is going to break your heard, but liberal predators are dropping like flies (Matt Lauer the latest), and economy growing at 3%. I expect the Obama apologist to get busy to try to spin this.

BOOM! Q3 GDP REVISED UP TO 3.3%

Greatest Stock Market Rally Ever! Dow up 30% Since Last Year’s Election – 4,000 Points This Year!

Trump Tweet:
Economy growing! Excluding hurricane effects, CEA estimates that real GDP growth would have been 3.9% in Q3. Stock market at a new high, unemployment at a low. We are winning and TAX CUTS will shift our economy into high gear!

That's almost 4%. Impressive.

Your only hope is fellow Rino McCain to at least stall tax cuts.

If all the signs are correct, we'll be adding tax cuts to the list. Even Traitor McCain seems to be on board (probably because he's not in a spoiler position). Only Corker is holding out.

McConnell Says Republicans Have the Votes to Pass the Tax Bill

• Senator Mitch McConnell, the majority leader, said “we have the votes” and the Senate will begin voting later today.

• Senator Susan Collins of Maine said she has secured the changes she needs to vote yes. For example, the bill will now include a $10,000 deduction for state and local property taxes.

• Three previous Republican holdouts — Senators Jeff Flake of Arizona, Steve Daines of Montana and Ron Johnson of Wisconsin — threw their support behind the bill.

• An effort by Senator Bob Corker of Tennessee to include future tax increases to offset the deficit impact of the bill was rejected by Senate leadership, prompting Mr. Corker to say he is unable to support the legislation.

• Lawmakers are now considering reinstating a modified version of the alternative minimum tax on individuals and on corporations.​

Liberal predators are dropping like flies because liberals hold them accountable. Conservatives are trying to get theirs elected.

What is taking so long? They've had the votes for 6 hours now. Are they timing the vote to coincide with the 6 o'clock news hour?

Take the dang vote, McTurtle.

Now, all we need is for the House and Senate to have a joint committee and work out the details.
