How true is this statement from a conservative I know: "Trump blessed America with the highest wages and lowest unemployment in history"?

    Not true at all. The lowest unemployment rate was 1.44% in 1944. Adjusted for inflation, the highest average wage in the US was in 1973, the average American worker in 1973 earning the equivalent of $23.68 per hour today.

    Obama's administration created way more problems for me then Trump's administration and Trump I think tried to solve some of the problems that were caused me and he did give me closer to getting a job rather than the crap that went on during the Bush administration Obama's administration so I support the president

    Unemployment was about 8% when Obama took office, around 4% when he left.  IT went a little lower under trump, due to the impact of Obama's policies.  To hear trump speak of it, unemployment was 90% when he came into office, and 1 when he left.  Sadly, his supporters believe him.
