Trump is scared already, so for him it's time to pour it on. For Trump the end is in sight.

I’d vote against Trump even if it meant that a meteor would arrive the next day that would destroy half the Earth.

Sounds rational.

That's how I see it. The economy has been growing since 2009, a slowing growth rate would precede any contraction and we may be seeing evidence of that already.

First of all, Biden is but one candidate out of many tossing their hats in the ring. You can tell the right is scared of him though because he's the one they keep bringing up (when reaching into the way wayback machine to Obama isn't cutting it). There's a LOT of time yet before 2020.

Biden has been clear that pushing towards better treatments and ultimately cures for cancers is a priority for him. Hate him all you want, but increasing funding for research to help millions of people fighting for their lives is not a bad cause. The "vote for me and..." is very typical rhetoric. All candidates use some form for it.

But there's no guarantee he'll ultimately get the nomination and there will be a lot of competition.

In the meantime you've got an orange oompa loompa blowhard having meltdowns and throwing tantrums and making threats about total destruction. THIS needs to stop and that idiot needs to be thrown out on his big wide whales arse.

It's backwards and opposite day every day. The economy could explode and Trump fans will be here saying "Those liberals and rich democrats are getting their payback - GO TRUMP". In fact, there are threads here already where they are doing that! We don't have to guess...already proven.

We have to face the fact that 40% of Americans...are not Americans in the sense of how we think of America (For the People, ALL the People, and ONLY for the people). These are authoritarians of various stripes and the imagined ends (which even they don't know) is worth ANY MEANS.

That is the sad truth. Nothing will ever change them. In 20 years when Trump is still rated the worst POTUS of all time, 30% of the country will still approve of his reign and wish for another shot at one person rule.
The stock market is the measure and they are using the increases in GDP. Not saying those measures aren't good, but they aren't going to everyone like in the past. Reaganomics even worked for everyone after a few growing pains. However unemployment is fairly equal to Obama gains and yet it is legit while Obama had fake numbers. Still can't get a straight answer on that...

Yeah because the dems are in control of the house.

The last time the dems held the majority, the economy went into a recession (which took us a long time to recover from).

And Bush largely did cause it. FYI, I didn't hate Bush until the second term.
