    I'm sure a pandemic has NOTHING to do with those numbers.

    Everyone knows that the economy has been deliberately crushed by the CCP/DP Wuhan Pandemic/Lockdown. Of course Trump should have embraced the Swedish model, but most of the blame for the economic hit will rest squarely on the DP and it's Deep State.

    Trump is in a very strong position for November. The RINOs, as usually, are tempted to commit political seppuku to get rid of Trump. So, there is still hope for some of our favorite corrupt DP pols. ;-)

    Not all American voters have short memories, though certainly with the dems it seems to be short.

    Don't worry, the impeachment sham, china virus, widespread looting, etc will be fresh enough in peoples minds-and Trump will be there to remind everyone.

    So....37 to 40% of the rioters are Republicans now. Interesting!

    Read again. Trafalgar's polling shows that 37% of Americans now support Trump.
    Rasmussen's polling shows that over 40% of black Americans now support Trump.

    Support for Trump does equal support for Republican politicians - or Democrat politicians.
    By now almost all ordinary Americans think almost all professional politicians are repulsive.

    I would certainly hope that a record number of avoidably dead Americans have an effect on public opinion. If not, what the hell are we and what disease besides the virus has infected this country?

    Didn't you blame Obama for the economy during his 8 years? The Recession started before he ever set foot in the office as well
    as the two wars that were already sucking the treasury dry ... The President in office gets the credit or blame ... doesn't matter why.

    Haven't you not been giving Obama credit for the Trump economy, right up until the Corona depression, then it suddenly became Trump's....just like that, overnight.

    Well how could the downturn be Obama's if Obama was not at the helm to ward off the proliferation of the virus? :wall:

    I'm not a huge Obama fan but this is just simple logic.

    Did you miss how Trump's economy was credited to Obama, right up to the shutdown?

    Regardless, your analogy is not logical.

    It most certainly is and it's more than some "analogy" it's been a reality for several years, did you miss Obama crediting himself, several times? (just not lately)

    The backlash is coming, certainly.

    One can argue or debate who is responsible or not for the economy pre-Covid 19, but there is no arguing who had the reins when the virus arrived here and whose responsibility it was to curtail it.

    Not well informed people. Most economist agree the economy belongs to the new Prez after 18 months.
