Pay increases for the bottom 80% of workers under Trump still lag those under George W. Bush at 2.9% vs. 3.2%

Average increases year over year through November 2019 and all of 2017 and 2018 average just 2.9% vs. Bush 43's 8-year average of 3.2%.

Yet all we hear is how this is the greatest economy ever, the greatest economy in decades, yada yada yada.

It's all BS.

It's the best economy in about eight years for your average worker, but still not as good as it was under Bush 43.
