40 years ago Republican candidate Ronald Reagan asked the nation an important question:
Are you better off than you were 4 years ago??
At the time the answer was "No".... Though he was an honest and likable guy, Jimmy Carter wasn't much of a President, and the economy was struggling. This question enabled Reagan to become the 40th President. Fast forward to 2020 and that question is still valid: Are you better off than you were 4 years ago?? If you're honest, the answer is "No"
When Donald Trump took office in 2017 the American economy was in good shape, there were no major military threats, and illegal border crossings were at historic lows. Today the unemployment rate is over 8%, farmers are losing their farms at a record pace, the much promised manufacturing jobs have never materialized, and millions of people have been stripped of badly needed healthcare coverage. No - we're not better off at all.
Trump supporters can attack the Liberals, Socialism, the mail, the deep state, Kamala Harris, the mainstream media, and all your usual enemies, as well as try to gerrymander the election, but it's not going to work. Americans are worse off than they were 4 years ago, and because of this Trump and Co. are going to lose.
Those are the facts Jack - Just the facts!The economy was in good shape 4 years ago. And that was accomplished during 2 pandemics. H1N1 and Ebola. trump is is a sorry president, but a great bullshitter.The economy wasn’t in good shape four years ago. Maybe you can’t remember that far back, but many people can.40 years ago Republican candidate Ronald Reagan asked the nation an important question:

Prior to Covid, the economy was booming, unemployment percentages were at record lows, treaties were being renegotiated in ways that favored the USA rather than other countries; and to use a favorite phrase of the democrats, our allies were being told they had to “pay their fair share” of the costs of their defense. I was dubious about a Trump as president, but I figured we could survive a term of anyone without serious damage to our system. It’s designed to be resistant to damage in the long term. Much to my surprise, despite his inane twitter posts and hyperbolic public statements,Trump has turned out to be a better than average president when his actions are viewed rather than his words listened to. I read somewhere that hyperbole is Donald Trump’s native tongue rather than English. The statement seems to fit.
For some reason, the democrats seem to have picked a ticket doomed to fail. Off hand I can’t think of two people less likely for the average American to support than Joe Biden (a career politician) and Kamala Harris (an explosively fast rising politician who seems to have no core beliefs at all). Their whole message seems to be “vote for us we aren’t Trump/Pence.The problem, Bill, is that the "Trump will lose because he should lose" threads didn't work out so well in 2016.40 years ago Republican candidate Ronald Reagan asked the nation an important question:

This isn't a time of logic or reason. It's time of anger and division. That's what got him elected in the first place.
I have no idea who's going to win, but basing electoral predictions on reason and logic may not work out, again.Yup. Before Covid the country was in great shape.
UE was the lowest it had been in 50 years and we had jobs all across this country. We had a great economy with Trump at the help.
Trump will lose?? Not likely cause voters know just what great shape this country was in before Covid and they know we need Trump at the helm to get that great shape back.
Actually, people are in bad shape now.... It doesn't matter what shit was like last year.
Trump was badly trailing Biden before Covid Hit... Now we have Covid, Recession, Riots, burning forests... no one is going to reward him for that.Trump was hired by America’s best citizens to protect, preserve and restore American virtue, he was hired to spend his days verbally bitchslapping the living shit out of Leftist filth and shaming the disgusting fucks into submission and THAT’S IT!The Republican Party is on the verge of losing control of the Senate because of their asskissing of Trump. The party is worse off than it was 4 years ago. Trump must go so that the party can have a rebirth.
Nobody gives two shits about the economy right now...we want our nation back from the enemy...THE LEFT.
He was not hired by America's best as he lost the popular vote. He has failed. He has showed no signs of fiscal conservatism.
Well for a failure he did pretty damned good.
Before Covid UE was the lowest its been in 50 years and we had jobs all across this country and a great economy.
Not bad for a failure. LOL
Don't COVID which he bungled by the way. He showed no signs of fiscal conservatism. NOT one fiscally conservative policy of his can you name.
He didn't bungle Covid. He listened closely to Fauci. A fact Fauce has already attested to. No matter what anyone said or did the virus would have landed in the US. Neither Barry, Hitlery or Biden could have done any better than Trump did. This virus is unstoppable which is why its in every country.
You're the one who's talking about fiscal conservatism. I'm talking about a great economy and jobs all across this country. If that troubles you then too bad, so sad.
He downplayed it to the tune of 6.6 million infected people in this country and he admitted it. He bungled it
He didn't down play it at all. Tell me. What do you think of the Dems who called him a racist when he wanted to stop flights coming into the US to stop the spread of the virus??
Tell me, what do you think of Pelousy telling everyone the virus was nothing and that they should all come out with her to celebrate the Chinese New Year.
Also why don't you tell me how you would stop and unstoppable virus from getting into the country??
Americans were watching the news. They knew the virus was headed out way and nothing would stop it. Hell I went out and bought a mask and practiced social distancing way before the CDC came out with those instructions and you can bet your ass millions of other Americans did the same thing.
They predicted 3.2 million deaths in this country and thank the Good Lord that never came to pass.
I'd say Trump did a good job considering no one knew the first thing about this virus or how bad it could be.
You want to blame someone. Blame the Chinese. They are the ones who loosed this killer on the world. Not Trump.
