After previously saying wages were "too high," Trump instead stressed Sunday and again Monday that they were actually "too low."

"Wages in are country are too low, good jobs are too few, and people have lost faith in our leaders. We need smart and strong leadership now!" Trump tweeted Monday morning.

The apparent shift came after Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vermont), a Democratic presidential candidate, said in a Sunday interview that his message would resonate among Trump's working-class supporters.

Who can resist a real leader that knows what he is doing,and stands by his decisions?

BTW,does agreeing with Bernie make your boy Donald a commie,AKA Stone?

Gee,I wonder if this means he is sending the foreigners he imported into this country because they work cheaper than Americans back home,and replacing them with American workers?

So just how high do you want to raise the minimum wage? $15/hr? $25/hr? $1000/hr?

At least in the above quotes, Trump is not addressing minimum wages changes. Saying wages are too low is not necessarily advocating increasing minimum wage. He may instead be advocating an end to exporting jobs to Mexico, China, et al, and other policy changes that would increase wages through economic supply and demand forces.

"At least in the above quotes, Trump is not addressing minimum wages changes."

When he said "wages are too high" he was answering a question about raising the minimum wage. He stated that IF we wanted to compete for those jobs lost to other countries, wages would have to be lower.

The recent comment was about wages in general.

Time for someone to eat crow.

TRUMP: But, taxes too high, wages too high, we're not going to be able to compete against the world. I hate to say it, but we have to leave it the way it is. People have to go out, they have to work really hard and have to get into that upper stratum. But we can not do this if we are going to compete with the rest of the world. We just can't do it.

CAVUTO: So do not raise the minimum wage?

TRUMP: I would not do it.
