I know that you leftists are praying for economic doom as a way to defeat President Trump (it's quite sick and disgusting actually), but the economy is doing rather well. Record low unemployment, increasing wages, strong stock market, etc.

OP called conservatives socialists, so evidently, his confusion got the best of him.

You are the socialist. Trump is using taxpayer dollars to fund corporate welfare, bailouts for farmers, and record fiscal stimulus.
On unemployment, 2019 has been the worst year for average monthly job growth in seven years and Q2 GDP growth was the weakest reading since Q4 of 2016.
On wages, 2018 saw a 0.9% growth in median household income. That is barely an increase and was a smaller increase than in 2017, 2016, and 2015 which saw more impressive wage growth. Wage growth in August of this year was less than in July and June.
As far as the stock market, it's a bubble.

Obviously, you haven't read much about economics and the differing economic philosophies. Trump is a Keynesian, Keyensians are socialists. Therefore, Trump is a socialist. If you support him, you are also a socialist and have similar beliefs to Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren.

The default rate came down during Obama's tenure from the peak, if you compare 2016 to the present, it's increased under Trump. The Trump economy is the same as the Obama economy.

Nothing but doom and gloom and prayers for economic meltdown in that post.

" Consumer spending at retailers, bars, and restaurants have slowed but nothing to warn about yet."
The rest is just MORE "predictions" which seldom come true.
It just finished a cross country trip and found new construction from housing to commercial to big business to roads BOOMING. Help wanted signs all over the place.
When I took my trip during the obama admin, even in his 6th and 7th years, I saw NOTHING.

"You forgot soaring deficits and a ballooning National Debt". Didn't bother your during the obama admin, so why NOW?
