WHY TRUMP WILL BE RE-ELECTED, IN ONE DATA POINT
Powerline ^ | Febuary 6,2020 | JOHN HINDERAKER

Posted on 02/06/2020 6:11:59 PM PST by Hojczyk

Gallup has some fascinating poll data on Americans’ views of their own financial well-being. The headline sums it up: “Record-High Optimism on Personal Finances in U.S.”

Gallup finds that 59% say they are better off than they were a year ago, as opposed to only 20% who say they are worse off. Those are great numbers–interestingly, we are so divided that political affiliation makes a big difference even on a simple question about one’s own finances–but that isn’t the data point I mean.

The most striking finding is this one: 74% say they expect to be better off a year from now than they are today, the highest such finding Gallup has ever recorded:

Sure, a lot can change between now and November. But with 74% of Americans looking forward to being more prosperous a year from now, it is hard to imagine a majority thinking that a radical change in the direction of socialism is a good idea. A huge majority of Americans, whatever they may think of Donald Trump, appear to be invested in the direction the country is moving.

I should be better off next year, but if one of the commie democrat clowns wins, all bets are off.

From the Gallup survey:

Results are based on telephone interviews conducted January 2-15, 2020 with a random sample of –1,014— adults, ages 18+, living in all 50 U.S. states and the District of Columbia. For results based on this sample of national adults, the margin of sampling error is ±4 percentage points at the 95% confidence level.

The results are 3 weeks old. Imagine if the poll could have been conducted February 2-15 with the stock market at record highs (already recovered from last weeks overrated [for US] coronavirus scare), a wonderful, optomistic State of the Union speech by POTUS, and his impeachment acquittal. Though we don't know what the next week will bring, based on what we know now, the results would have been even higher!

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Words worth repeating.

Re-electing the same people who have spent the last 30 years turning the USA into North Mexico is counterproductive.
Bush League Republicans in the majority wasted the first two years of President Trump administration stone walling securing the border and interior enforcement.

Trump and others are using “This is a Blue Collar Boom” a lot. Very, very smart.

Thinking ahead, at some point we’ve got to take a recession. But, first Trump has to get elected.

Best time for the recession would be 2022 to early 2023, then recovery good times into 2024. Will the next standard bearer be Pence? Or someone new?

I hope so.

He seems competent, but not dynamic.

Ditto. That applies to all of us.

Except the spongers. Like my SIL and her welfare momma daughter. They need more free sh1t from the commies, not opportunities.

These top down stats are interesting but in the end the Presidential election will be decided by key districts in key states.
