I am glad to hear this. You are maybe the only other person I have heard besides me that didn't like him.

Is everyone here also reading the Trump threads on WOV? If so, I will stop cross posting.

That gets a three letter reaction from me: wow!

Nope. Just a bunch of liberals posting Trump complaints. Waste of my time.
The President is a fink.

My dislike of Nike goes all the way back to the late 70's, when I was working in Hillsboro Ore.
At the time Nike employees [70's] were earning 14 dollars per hour and their top of the line athletic shoes cost 40 bucks. Then they left America for good. Years later, maybe the 90's?, Nike employees are making 3 dollars per day in China and Michael Jordan makes more money from being the face of Nike than all of their employees combined, and their high end running shoes cost in the hundreds.

So fo Nike, forever. They can put any face they want on it. Come to think of it, I'm glad they have Colin.

Layoffs Just Reached a Half-Century Low

"This is the lowest level of unemployment benefit applications since the end of 1969."

https://www.wsj.com/articles/u-s-jobless-claims-fell-to-a-49-year-low-last-week-1536237250

More fake news from the Wall St Journal.
Obama assured us his economy was the
'new norm' and that Trump would have
to wave a magic wand to improve it. This
unemployment figure has to be a lie.

No magic wand, he just used good business
sense. MAGA!!!
