    • Wages are up
    • Taxes are down
    • Unemployment is at record low levels.
    • Employment is up.
    People are working and making money.

    Too bad for you they will.

    Trump's approval is very high relative to many of the left's favored international leaders like Trudeau, Ardern, etc.

    Of course not. Because the voters never vote based on their pockets, they vote based on Hunter Biden's and his daddy's pockets... lest we forget the pockets of the illegals who need free healthcare, education and subsidized housi

    They also vote based on moral superiority of the party of Clintons and Bidens, Weinsteins and Omars, party of socialists, antisemites and woke leftist brownshirts...

    Lol, good luck convincing them voters to not vote pocketbook issues and instead vote for thieving Pokahontes, based of course while she was stealing the life and career of a deserving minority, her moral standards remain sky high.

    And almost none of that has anything to do with Trump. So you better hope that a majority of the voters live in the same fantasy that you do, because otherwise they'll understand how little credit Trump actually deserves for the economy. And this isn't just Trump. Clinton didn't cause the economic boom in the 90s either, that was not his doing.

    What it will do is excite his hairstylist and tan sprayer to think about living in the White House for four more years at taxpayer expense.

    Wrong! They end after 2025 unless congress makes them permanent or extends them. Do you trust the Democrats to make them permanent or to extend them?

    If voters didn't vote primarily on the basis of their pocketbooks Hillary Clinton would be running for re-election instead of Donald Trump.

    That would also explain why Democrats have been as silent as the grave on the economy...

    It also assumes “average turnout” from Democrats.
    Seeing that the 2018 elections — a midterm election — saw the highest turnout since 1914 I think this may be a flawed metric.

    But CNBC said the market would tank if he was elected...

    He doesnt get credit for the market doing the exact opposite? Weird.

    They should offer to extend them in exchange for scrapping them on anyone worth more than 100MM.

    Would make a nice series of political ads when the republicans shoot it down.

    Why did republicans make the tax cuts for billionaires permanent while making everyone else’s temporary again?

    The top 1% pays 40% of the Federal income taxes.
    The top 10% pays 70% of the Federal income taxes.
    The top 50% pays 96% of the Federal income taxes.
    The bottom 50% only pay 4% of the Federal income taxes.

    The rich are already paying the vast majority of Federal income taxes. Why should the government steal more of their money?

    P.S. What is "100MM"?

    He wouldn't have been responsible for the market tanking if that had happened either.

    Exactly my response every time I see people praising the president for the state of the economy. If you want to praise a politician for it, praise Congress. They have much more control.

    lol... I wonder when the brainwashed CNN / DailyKos crowd actually figures this out. The hissy fit they are going to throw will be epic.

    Trump is good to 2024. All this Adam Schiff / Pelosi histrionics won't matter, or give him a boost as people realize this is yet another Nothing Burger.

    It's always about the economy and personal standard of living which has went up across the boards during Trump's tenure.
