you're right that nobody should, but 'somebody' is spending millions of dollars. That's sort of the definition of 'care'

Am I missing something here? I heard that Jill Stein started a go fund me page to have this done.

Even if Trump didn't win Wisconsin, does it even matter? I mean does it change the Electoral College?

I read somewhere that Trump spend $5 for every vote he got. I wonder how much the dims will spend for every "extra" vote that Hillary picks up?

As long as it helps the economy. Last I heard, the unemployment rate dropped again to 4.6%

About 9,000 full time jobs were created! Nice!
Trump just saved 1000 full time jobs! Nicer!

He would have to save a 1000 of those jobs a month for the next thirty years to equal the Obama auto bailout you guys bitched about.

Carry on.

I think we should kept track of how many jobs Trump creates and how many Obama created.

So far Trump 1000 Obama ?

Apparently, Trump supporters have now filed a lawsuit to stop the recount.

No, they would have to flip WI and then two others.

Good idea. Let's define the jobs. Part time and full time. Union and nonunion. Full time and part time. Jobs brought back from other countries and jobs created. Let's keep track. Good idea. Any other suggestions regarding breakdown?
How about innercity employment and industry moving back into innercity?
That will be s good measure as well.
What about occupancies of existing infrastructure? Anything else?

Trump zero, Obama zero.

Presidents don't create jobs. Employers do.

Absolutely untrue. The auto "bailout" probably did not "save" so much as a single job.

But...They can create the proper environment for employers to create jobs. Obama was a dismal failure in that regard...unless you wanted to work at fast food or a low level government gig. We need manufacturing jobs...and specifically? Machine tool jobs. We need again be the country that makes machinery. We have totally destroyed our ability to do this. Everywhere you look in plants and mills in this country machines are made abroad. That is a damn travesty of the highest order.

True,

This is what is called a source to back up my claim. Something the people on here seem to have trouble doing. I tried to find the Huff Post article that quoted the statistic verbatim but this link will just have to work. 1.5 million auto jobs were saved.
