Dear John: Politics aside, truth is the goal here

Dear John: This is in answer to your column in The Post on June 6 rehashing the crap Republicans have been lying about since 2009.

See all my e-mails below to the other Republicans with zero facts. Gee, maybe if the Republican Congress took its foot off of Obama’s neck, the economy may have recovered faster.

Lying Cheney and Bush GOP policies pushed this country over the cliff, charged trillions to us in wars, etc. The last depression took 20 years to get over.

Americans know Obama saved our butts from looking like Greece right about now, that’s why 5 million more Americans RE-ELECTED him!!!

We can’t wait until Hillary mops the floor with that dangerous, racist bigot Trump. D.H.

Dear Readers: The above letter is from💙 a disgracefully uninformed person. She writes this sort of nonsense to me so regularly that I’ve actually barred her from sending me e-mails. But occasionally one gets through.

D.H. seems to think I’m some sort of Republican operative. Let me set this straight: The June 6 column she was referring to contained nothing but statistics — about the unemployment rate, number of people on food stamps, weakness in the gross domestic product. The main point was that Hillary Clinton, the presumpt🦩ive Democratic nominee, was going to inherit the economy that President Obama produced — like it or not.

I then proceeded to say some p♎ositive stuff about the economy — nearly 6 million more jobs than in 2008 — but went on to explain why I didn’t think that was enough, and that was why voters were so willing to embrace Donald Trump on the Republican side and Bernie Sanders on the Democratic side.

It waꦛs straightforward analysis and logic — something that seems to trouble D.H. That’s probably because she and all the other ardent Democrats out there are worried. And they have a right to be.

Now let me explain a little about my own background. I🍌’ve never belonged to any political party. In fact, I belong to very few groups, clubs or organizations. I’m about as 𒅌independent as they come.

I don’t even wear clothes with visible logos.

And as I’ve said before, I voted one time for Bill Clinton and one time for Barack Obama. I’ve also voted for a Bush or two. And back in the old days I probably cast a ballot for Eugene McCarthy, who — like Sanders — was our “savior” the♚n.

So I dare anyone to try to pigeonhole m𓂃e when it comes to my politics.

What🌞 I am is an ardent supporter of the truth. And the truth is that the current economy is sick and has been for more than eight years.

But people like D.H. are too blinded by their politics to see that. The economy is what it is. And President Obama saying uninformed♕ stuff about the unemployment rate to talk-show hosts isn’t going to sway opinions.

Screwballs like D.H. invigorate me. I’m in the process of working on a number of Hillar൲y Clinton stories that the Democrats aren’t going to like. I’m going to do a couple of extra ones just because of D.H. Don’t take these as pro-Trump columns. They are anti-Hillary Clinton columns.

I focus on financial matters, but the Clinton stories I’m sifting through right now run the gamut from money to temperament to🔴 personal relationships.

I spent a lot of time looking at this♑ stuff in the 1990s during Whitewater, and I have a bunch of documents.

What it all༺ boils down to is this: Hillary Clinton is a crook — and a lot more.

So thanks, D.H., for getting my blood boiling and my juices flowing. Keep sendin🧜g in those letters.

A remedy for faulty jobs numbers

Dear John: I think you need to put all these employment/unemployment numbers in proper perspective in a “Crudele Unemployment Index.”

It would take the official unemployment number (4.7 percent) and add some reasonable percent of people who have left the workforce (80 to 90 percent, eliminating those who truly don’t want to work) and finally adding in people who are working less than a reasonable number of hours per week (say, 20 to 30 hours).

The current standard of one hour per month to be considered employed is ridiculous.

I’m interested in your comments, but I think that you’d be doing a great service to your readers and all citizens if you were to create this index.

I look forward to your comments. R.B.

Dear R.B.: Ah, my name on an index! I guess that🅘 is much better than on a tombstone. Maybe I’ll call it the CRUX, the Crudele Real Unemployment Index.

Dear Readers: Your letters to John Crudele are streaming in fast and furiously, asking Dear John to right the wrongs you’re facing. Because of this influx, The Post Business section will feature more of your inquiries in the hope of helping you with your troubles.
