Trump says Wisconsin poverty rate is lowest in 22 years. It's not.

[TexasTowelie]

At a April 27, 2019 rally in Green Bay before 10,000 boisterous supporters, President Donald Trump blazed his way through a typical barrage of claims and statistics in a stump speech that stretched well over an hour.

After calling Wisconsin — a key state in his 2016 general election victory — a "special place," he threw out two rapid fire claims on the state’s poverty and unemployment levels. We’ll tackle the first of those here.

"The poverty rate for Wisconsin families has reached the lowest rate in 22 years," Trump said, a pronouncement greeted by cheers from the Resch Center crowd.

His claim is very precise — Wisconsin, families, 22 years.

1. Sorry Deranged Donnie,

you are so out of touch with reality. Poverty is out of control in my home State. Rethug Policies are creating a permanent under social class of poverty citizens .


Appelton is slowly becoming the new Poverty Center of Wisconsin with the Paper Industry shut downs and the demise of the Dairy Industry. So Ingraman the Clueless still does not except Reality. Oh well,she is well paid by Murdoch for her falsehoods.
