Yes, blue collar wages had gone up through Feb of this year. A closer look at the facts shows that the #TrumpRyanTaxScam was NOT the cause, but it was entirely due to Democratic initiatives at the state and local levels to RAISE the MINIMUM WAGE.

The bottom line is that when Donny talks about his formerly great economy, it was NOT great at all. #LyingTrump
