    Trump recently tweeted;

    Donald J. Trump
    @realDonaldTrump


    "The Trump Economy is setting records, and has a long way up to go....However, if anyone but me takes over in 2020 (I know the competition very well), there will be a Market Crash the likes of which has not been seen before! KEEP AMERICA GREAT"

    ------------------

    QUESTION: What records?

    Unemployment rate?

    Well, FIRST, let's compare Trump's 3.6% unemployment rate economy VERSUS Clinton's 4.6% unemployment rate economy;

    Who wants to be my first victim?

    Employment rates are not always indicative of the economy as there may be more people on part time employment

    According to Tramp that 3.6% UE rate is FAKE.
    By Tramp's own calculation for the "REAL" UE rate, with 96+ million now not working under Tramp, it is now 62%, up from 42% under Obama.

    Don’t forget in the meantime we have a real unemployment rate that’s probably 21%. It’s not 6. It’s not 5.2 and 5.5. Our real unemployment rate–in fact, I saw a chart the other day, our real unemployment–because you have ninety million people that aren’t working. Ninety-three million to be exact.
    If you start adding it up, our real unemployment rate is 42%.
