Darn this Bad economic news under Trump.  Impeach him.   


U.S. homebuilding increased more than expected in November and permits for future home construction surged to a 12-1/2-year high.
Lower mortgage rates continued to boost the housing market and support the broader economy.
Housing starts rose 3.2% to 1.365 million units last month, with single-family construction racing to a 10-month high.
Activity in the volatile multifamily sector increased for a second straight month, the Commerce Department said.

We need Sanders to be elected to save the economy.  Only the rich are getting richer. And it is on the backs of the lazy

12 -1/2 year high -- gee, this must be something that Bammy put into motion a long time ago.  Trump is tanking the economy!
