The Boys Club

On a day when the economy surprised everyone by adding more jobs in July than predicted, and more over the last several months than first thought, Donald “Man of the People” Trump announced his team of economic advisors. It’s an all-male team of Wall Street insiders, without one credible expert or academic among them.

But that won’t stop Trump from telling us Monday that the economy sucks, all because of Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama, and that he and his hedge-fund and real estate moguls can make things better for all of us. All we have to do is cut three trillion dollars in revenue from the Treasury (by Trump’s own estimate) and give tax cuts to all his economic team, and everything will be swell for the rest of us.

Good luck GOP selling this.
