Mission Statement: This blog reviews the news of the day in light of 242 years of American history. "Nationalism," a modern day pejorative, has been our country's politic throughout history, until 2008. Obama changed that narrative. Trump is seeking a return to our historical roots. Midknight Review supports this return to normality.
Total LIE, but what would you expect from a guy who constantly quotes a known fake news source: https://mediabiasfactcheck.com/the-gateway-pundit/

Delete"3,100" came from the Council of Economic Advisers, not Gateway Pundit. It is an "average" and, as such, is not saying that each and every American family has seen an increase of $3,100. Rather, when you add in the total incomes of 5 million new jobs filled during the Trump years to the existing total, you have an increase in the average annual income marker of $3,100. Under Obama, jobs "created or saved" could not make such a claim because, for the most part, Barack was counting jobs already earning an income (i.e. "jobs saved") and more than 40% of his new jobs numbers were part-time positions. He lost 600,000 real manufacturing jobs. Consequently, his numbers went down.
