I'll still never understand how we supposedly have high/rising unemployment but also at the same time need tens of millions of illegals immigrants. Why would people be coming over the border for jobs that dont exist?

Trump ain't fixing shite. Neither are the Dims ..This has to burn out like a wildfire, it will get worse.

Don't know about this. Unemployment is at 4.3%. That is low as about 10% of the US adult population is unemployable.
People on this board are giving anecdotal stories of trying to hire people, but not able.
Large employers are screaming about wanting more H1B employees, for whatever reason. Probably to replace Americans. (?) For whatever reason, Trump has added that $100K fee to make sure they're serious.
Nah, young people can't find jobs because they're not qualified for the jobs available, and qualified for jobs not hiring. The jobs are out there.
Edit, BTW, Boomers are hitting age 65 at the rate of 10,000 per day, every day. Surely some jobs are becoming available from that number.

Biden’s economy was shite but he did better than Trump so far.
Trump has only accelerated the problem. The economy is in a tailspin and Americans will be looking to make a change in November 26. Trump needs to start getting more trade deals done and focus more on the economy instead of fricking Israel and Ukraine

The jobs are available, young people just don’t want to work. If they would look up from their phones for five seconds, they could easily get a well paying job. It’s really not that difficult.

Im sure you think $15/hr is still a well paying job.

I was buying ribeyes at Walmart just 6 months ago at $11/lb every day....now they are $16/lb. It aint just beef, restaurants, services, all of it. Inflation is consuming people and their incomes are not rising to meet it.
If you believe there aren't enough jobs and inflation is out of control, can you explain to me how Trump's tariffs help either one of those problems?
Seems to me the only possibility in ether case is that they will make them worse.

BS, would rather have the truth versus the Democrat fiction of “How many new government employees did hir today?”
Far too easy to be that stupid. Guess where you sit?

Indentured servants are cheaper than citizens. Period.

OK let's cut our way out.
Deep down inside, in places politicians can only reach when desperate, they know spending cuts are the only way out. One group makes unconscionable spending requests for appearance only, fighting tooth and nail for more outlandish spending, knowing it will force a government shutdown.
It is a win win. We tried to spend but they would not let us. Meanwhile, pink slips by the thousands are provided to government workers and the possibility of agencies shuttered becomes a reality.
Americans suddenly realize we do not need them on that wall. It is why politicians hate it when they must "shut" her down.

I think trump just smeared rhe shite off the window and we are seeing ehat is really going on. Im not saying he fixed anything but we have been propped up in ways like china

I’m not a fan of the tariffs primarily due to how they were rolled out. The math was goofy and they weren’t targeting specific industries that we would benefit from having back here from a point of national security (or even getting it moved to a friendly nation if not here). The rollout and reversals created problems in quoting due to price increases with suppliers not knowing what to expect. That creates supply chain uncertainty which fed right into small businesses getting hammered and crap continues to roll downhill from there.
