A Wartime President
Issues & Insights ^ | 4/9/2020 | Yassin Fawaz and Peter Ferrara

During his first three years in office, President Donald J. Trump celebrated a booming economy, delivering on his central promise, “Make America Great Again.”

His pro-growth policies created millions of new jobs, with the lowest unemployment rates for Blacks, Hispanics, and Asians, respectively, in American history. The unemployment rate overall fell to the lowest in 50 years, since 1969, during the 1960s Kennedy boom. Wages and middle-class incomes soared to over $65,000, an all-time record, with wages for lower-income workers rising faster than for their bosses.

Hearkening back to Reagan and Kennedy, that resulted from marginal income tax rate cuts, for workers, small businesses, and corporations. That included slashing the federal corporate rate from 35% to 21%.

Unfortunately that’s out the window now. The Soros attack ads have effectively changed that narrative it to “Trumps early denial led to a disproportionate number of deaths in the black community” and it is sticking.

Kennedy boom? He died in 63 - Nixon was President in 1969.

But, hey - why not give the Democrat credit? We can call whatever Trump does the Obama boom.

Sheesh

They obviously forgot the 1930’s. Sure, there may be more in number, but not in percentage wise only because the population has grown. Twisting facts.

This crash was planned every step of the way by Pelosi/Soros/Schumer/Obama cabal. They worked hand in hand with their ideological comrades, the CCP, to release this virus in time to hopefully ruin DJT’s chances of re-election. These criminals hate America and everything it stands for, so any casualties resulting from their plan are simply a bonus.

This is a war of good versus evil, and it’s time for Trump to step up, take the gloves off, and destroy his enemies. Arrests, trials, and executions are the only way to save America from her enemies.

That’s all ancient history now, folks. He’s been duped into buying the bullshit that this Wuhan China virus is going to roll over us like a tidal wave and he’s surrounded by “I wanna run the country” doctors who want us to believe that they can foretell the future. He’s at least partly to blame for this gross overreaction because he was the first to carry the message of Fauci, Birx and others - even as late as last week. As a result, we’ve not only undone what he did in the last three years, but have taken the country way below Obama levels and I’m afraid he’s going to pay the price for it.

True that, it’s probably the unreachable who are calling in.
