IBD-TIPP Poll: Post-Debate, Biden's Lead Falls to Three

I know, polls are bullshit, but it's a slow news day (apart from the leftwing enemy-comms media thrilling over the prospect of Trump dying).

Meanwhile, the economy added 660,000 jobs and the unemployment rate fell "unexpected" -- this Fox Business article actually says "unexpectedly" -- from 8.4% to 7.9%.

The media is portraying this as some kind of loss because the job growth was not as big as in previous months. But the job growth in a month of good expansion is 400,000. In September, we gained 660,000. Yes that's not as huge as the 900,000 a few months ago, but it's great.

And it's better than any month of job growth, ever, under Obama -- even though Obama went in to the 2012 election with anemic job creation and with unemployment still over 8%, four years after taking over with his "Green Shoots" and "Recovery Summers" and "Jobs Created or Saved."

And of course that was portrayed as a great economic recovery.

But Trump posts job creation numbers of 1,000,000, then 900,000, then several months in the 800,000's, and then 660,000, and it's a failure.

Okay.
