"What no one realizes is, yes there's a lot of anti-Trump rhetoric out there. But the economy is still on the rise from Obama and nothing the Republicans have done have hit people yet. As soon as they lose their health coverage, we go back to recession from Republican tax cuts, and people actually feel the effects of the administration, they'll stick with tradition. By midterms, once people are suffering, it'll be a bloodbath of seat changes."

Oh Democrats. Always with the "If good happens in our term, WE did it. If good happens in a Republican term, well, things take a while to take effect, so WE did it!" EIGHT YEARS of Obama, and nothing really happens. SIX MONTHS of Trump, and we're seeing gains. If it's all "on the rise from Obama", why did none of it happen until AFTER he left office? Hmm?

Also, recession from tax cuts? So the answer is more taxes, eh?

"...bloodbath of seat changes."

just like...

"Trump will never be the nominee."

"Trump won't last two weeks in this race."

"Hillary will win by a landslide."

"There is NO path to victory for Trump."

"98% probability of Hillary winning."

Also, bloodbath? Your side attempts to assassinate political opponents just a few days ago, and you predict a bloodbath? Poor form.

Yes, that particular post was even more insane than most of them.

Eight years of "The great recovery is right around the corner. We prevented disaster, and now we're just days away from the roaring upturn. Don't worry about those bad numbers, only look at these ones that look better. Just think how bad things would be if we hadn't done the things we did. Any minute now we'll see that growth, just you see." And wonktards like Paul Krugman and Vox tried to convince us that it was stupid to think otherwise.

Then on November 9th, the markets suddenly get super optimistic, and they still cling unquestioningly to the idea that it's connected to Obama.

This idiot is right about one thing, though. People are just barely starting to feel the effect of Trump's presidency. What they don't realize that people's happiness with Trump will increase as those effects are felt.

Yeah. It's retarded to hope for a recession no matter which side is in office.
