Wages continue to rise–*after* inflation- in 16 of 23 sectors that employed lots of illegal aliens, including construction and retail.(e.g.: construction up 2.39% under Trump vs. 1.39% in Biden’s last year.) https://t.co/knvK1jxf2g https://t.co/gNMizZvt6D

I think people are assuming (probably correctly) that if you hung with Epstein for any length of time and you’re not an idiot you knew what was going on. This isn’t a court of law, it’s a court of public opinion in which people are shamed even if they didn’t commit a crime. https://t.co/LuHuQXvz6y

Isn’t the rule of thumb that people know their economic situation better than the stats. If they think the economy is bad, pushing stats won’t convince them it’s good. If they think it’s good, hard to convince them it’s bad. Anecdotal data rules– anecdotal data from 300M people. https://t.co/V0rkhzIgmj
