So why will Republicans lose congress with a thriving economy? What is your pitch going to be?
Because we had a thriving economy for many years BEFORE the advent of the orange clown......So that can't be the deciding factor now, can it?
Rather, the DO-NOTHING congress under McConnell and soon-to fade away Ryan, is worth crap.......and changes will be made......
Checkout all those states that voted for GOPers to go to congress, while still voting for Hillary......Want to venture a guess as to how "happy" they are with these recently elected idiots????
"Because we had a thriving economy for many years BEFORE the advent of the orange clown..."
Clearly, you're a lying low-life
Let's give you a dozen chances to prove you aren't a lying low-life Liberal:

In a stunning Tuesday report, Gallup CEO and Chairman Jim Clifton revealed that “for the first time in 35 years, American business deaths now outnumber business births.”Clifton says for the past six years since 2008, employer business startups have fallen below the business failure rate, spurring what he calls “an underground earthquake” that only stands to worsen as lagging U.S. Census data becomes available.

6. . "That basic math is why middle class incomes have been in decline under Obama. The Census Bureau reports that since Obama became President 7 years ago, real median household income has fallen by $1,300 a year. Heritage Foundation Chief Economist Steve Moore explained in testimony before the Ways and Means Committee, “At 2 percent growth the economy doesn’t spin off enough jobs to increase wages, and tax revenues grow much too slowly to balance the budget.”
The recession officially ended more than 6 years ago. Wages and incomes have always grown in recoveries, not declined. Moreover, the American historical record is the deeper the recession, the stronger the recovery. The economy is supposed to boom in a recovery to catch up with its long term economic growth trendline. But over 6 years after the recession ended, that still has not happened. Instead, what we have gotten under President Obama is the worst recovery from a recession since the Great Depression."

The declines were greatest for the lowest-paid workers in sectors where hiring has been strong — home health care, food preparation and retailing — even though wages were already below average to begin with in those service industries.
