QOTD: Who else?

QOTD: Who else?

Wages in are country are too low, good jobs are too few, and people have lost faith in our leaders.We need smart and strong leadership now!
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) December 28, 2015



He said that in a twitter storm in which he claimed that Bernie Sanders voters were all coming over to him.

I wonder if any enterprising reporter will bother to question him saying this in light of his previous assertions in front of 20 million people that wages are actually too low:



He doubled down on this statement the next day:

"Whether it's taxes or wages, if they're too high we're not going to be able to compete with other countries," Trump said Thursday morning on Fox News.

On Morning Joe:

Mika, we’re becoming a non-competitive country. That’s the problem. We’re becoming non-competitive. I would love to say, “make it $50 an hour, I think it’s great” — you know what, it’s a difficult position politically . . . Our taxes are too high. Our wages are too high. Everything’s too high. We have to compete with other countries.

Somehow I think Sanders voters are a little bit smarter than the Trump voters who look at an exploitative billionaire who says he thinks working people in America make too much money and see a working class hero.



Happy New Year everyone!
