The last 3 one-termers (Ford, Carter & Bush 41) were sunk by sour economies. The economy right now is very good, but the stock has been volatile and, unless things turn around in the next couple weeks, could be heading toward its first negative total return since 2008. If there is recession and it drags into 2020, you can bet the media story will be that Trump trashed the economy. Let’s face it, if the Dems can a flip a few of the swing states, we’re screwed.
I think the strong economy will turn people against the socialist. It WILL be realized that these political and fake news fools are lowlifes at the garden party.
This depends, in large part, whether Trump will actually do a darned thing about China ripping America off badly.
Badly.
He seems to be about America. But our trade deficit with China is now the single largest, between any two countries, ever, in recorded history.
And it is getting even worse, this year. WORSE.
Trump, this is one of the two issues I have been on your side since before you even announced you were running for President.
This, and the wall.
Neither of which, have improved yet.
Neither one...
Hillary’s backers on Wall St. are tanking the stock market to bring on that recession. They have millions and won’t suffer. It will be President Trump’s base that will suffer, and that’s the plan.
If the economy is ailing by 2020, do they think that Pres. Trump’s base will vote for Biden and Beto to fix the economy? That is ludicrous.
The base won’t win the election.
Brilliant!
If we enter a recession, it won’t be because of our economy. The likelihood of a global recession is high and here is nothing a “chugging” US economy can do about it. Emerging markets are tanking. They are enbebt to the tune of $67 trillion and our banks are servicing a lot of that debt. A roaring US economy will be powerless against that.
Yes and Hillary has a 95% chance of winning.
I’m im Texas.
