none of this really said any active democratic policy, it says "dems arent republicans so vote for them"

both sidesWages?
Healthcare?
Student Debt?
Tax cut bill that rewarded the wealthy more than the poor and middle-class?
Homelessness?
Because cutting taxes in isolation while the deficit and our debt skyrocket and long-term borrowing costs increase just so you can have another $100 in your pocket to spend on trinkets is not rational policy.if all i'm gonna get at the ballot box is a corporate whore, why not vote for the one who's gonna cut my taxes?
i wont really vote for a repub, but if the dems run some bought and paid for shill in 2020 who doesnt stand for shyt, then i probably won't vote again![]()
"The correlation between economic indicators and seat-swings in midterm elections is very weak," Abramowitz says. The president's job approval rating, he adds, has been four times as powerful as economic growth in determining how his party fares.
The answer seems to be that an economy that’s doing very well is not enough for voters to credit the current president or the party in control of Congress. Many voters may think the good economy is a carryover from the former president, or is due to factors that the president and Congress don’t control.
Republican pollster David Winston says that another factor hurting his party is that many people are not feeling financially secure on a personal level.
“People are still assessing — is this a temporary moment in the economy, or is this something longer term that they can have some confidence?” Winston said. “There’s a sense that things are improving, but it’s going to take some time for that to evolve into a comfort level.”

:royumad1:Big picture: While the surplus helped the government’s coffers for the month, the longer-term trend is going the other way. The Treasury said the budget deficit for the fiscal year to date is running ahead of the year-ago period, at $385 billion compared to $344 billion. That rising tide of red ink jibes with higher deficits estimated by the CBO, which forecasts a shortfall of $804 billion for the current fiscal year, and even higher deficits later, spurred on by the tax-code overhaul passed late last year.
No one besides maybe a minority of uninformed thought that the country would collapse the moment Trump is elected. It's a prolonged process and Republican policies like the past tax bill slowly erode economic growth and opportunities. Usually takes a few years. Trump economic policy and republican general economic policy has shown repeatedly to hamper the economy and its usually cascading effects before you see a big problem.the country is in the same shape obama left it in, which was pretty good. definitely >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> bush
the problem is that dems have told us that the sky would fall if trump got elected, and it hasntthey look stupid, and they look like they cried wolf

Because I consistently see articles like this so I laugh when I see articles like in OP:People are really trying to claim Trump/Conservative economic policy is to thank?
A lot of sectors are suffering right now because of their ham fisted actions....
Do we really need to point out how bad this tax bill is across the board and the deficits it'll create?
Screwing with the health care markets is another economic disaster waiting to happen.
The article is filled with nobodies and op and the writer are agents.
Sounds like a message tour can run on to oppose those currently in office. I wonder if the Dems will do it? Doubt it.Because I consistently see articles like this so I laugh when I see articles like in OP:
Almost half of US families can't afford basics like rent and food
