Donald Trump now has an obvious path to a second term

(CNN)The latest economic numbers -- 266,000 jobs created in November, unemployment at a 50-year low -- make one thing very clear: President Donald Trump has a path to win a second term next year.

Yes, you can quibble about whether the strong November report or the upward revisions in job gains for the last two months or the broader upswing in the economy is due to Trump and his policies. But what we know -- both from our political history and more recent polling -- is that presidents get credit when the economy is strong and blame when it is weak.

It must have been painful for CNN to write it. Every now and then the Democrat media admits what everyone knows. No good news for Democrats. Merry Christmas! :)

Wonder if Zucker will call Cillizza to his office and force him to rewrite the article :)

Your scenario would most definitely start a shooting war, that would not end until one side or the other was EXTERMINATED.

It’s so bad the Clinton’s are hosting a suicide party. Trump would do better if the Dems were helping him...but then, they don’t want to help...

Does 47% of the population still get a government hand out of some sort?

President Trump may have lowered that number with the jobs boom though. Government dependents will vote rat, rat, rat.

I never understood any conservative supporting him.

With the Dems pumping 300 million dollars into the economy for President Trump, He cannot lose.

Beware of Google and Facebook, they have the ability to change millions of votes with their targeted ads. Google WILL be playing a huge part in the 2020 elections to defeat Trump.

So Bill Clinton was the preferable option? Because voting for Perot or getting all butt hurt over “read my lips” resulted in eight years of Clinton.

You got that right. Click my screen name for a very possible scenario on how social media gets Hillary elected next November.

Yeah, we got that one wrong. Mea culpa. I was 28 and didn't really understand the grand scheme of things. Looking back, I'm not sure a second Bush term would have been all that grand.
