Last time in history GOP held WH, House, and Senate. (unemployment rate, Clinton)

Sound familiar?

Hoover, a Republican who had formerly served as U.S. secretary of commerce, believed that government should not directly intervene in the economy, and that it did not have the responsibility to create jobs or provide economic relief for its citizens. In 1932, however, with the country mired in the depths of the Great Depression and some 13-15 million people (or more than 20 percent of the U.S. population at the time) unemployed,

Well, by all means, let's hope it happens again, so we can be right. -_-

I didn't want Trump, and I didn't want a Republican Congress, but I hope with all my heart that the history you mentioned does not repeat itself.

What was your point here? If it was warning, it's a little late, and if it's a prediction, I hope you are wrong.

Face it, you lost the election

Time to get over it
