......But not a word of this is true, according to new Census Bureau data on the incomes of America's middle class. This study by former Census Bureau researchers and now statisticians at Sentier Research has found gigantic income gains for the middle class under Trump. The median or average-income family has seen a gain of $5,003 since Trump came into office. Median family income is now (August 2019) $65,976, up from about $61,000 when he entered office (January 2017).

We all know about Hank's math challenges (and the whole intelligence thing as well). Median does not mean average, median means the halfway point in a set. So with median, half of the numbers are below and half are above. Clearly not the average, that would be the mean.
