The economy is booming, the tax reform package has spurred over 250 companies to dole out bonuses to some three million workers, more employee investments are coming, more jobs are projected to be created, and charitable donations are expected to increase from companies thanks to Trump’s tax bill. Apple’s repatriation of $250 billion, part of their $350 billion investments back into America over a five-year period is projected to create 20,000 jobs in the process. We've reached a new era, one of economic prosperity, which is what President Trump emphasized during the State of the Union Tuesday.
President Trump spoke of the good economic news to dead silence from Democrats. Job creation is up, with 2.4 million jobs created since the 2016 election—Democrats sat. They sat when the president announced we had defeated ISIS, touted low unemployment rates, fighting crime, uniting the country, and working together on a bipartisan basis. They were a legion of grumpy cats; still incensed that Donald Trump beat Hillary Clinton in 2016. Yeah, they’re not over it. Another area of heartburn could be the Democratic Party’s rather atrocious fundraising hauls. Filed during the State of the Union in the hopes of getting buried, Ken Vogel of The New York Times picked it up where he noted the Democratic National Committee had raised a little over $5 million, finishing the year with a whopping $6 million in debt. The Republican National Committee has no debt and raised over twice as much as the their Democratic counterparts. For 2017, the RNC raised $132.5 million to the DNC’s $65.9 million. Regarding cash on hand, the RNC has close to $40 million ($38.8 million to be exact), while the DNC only has $6.3 million.
The DNC tried to bury their latest FEC #s tonight...
Dec. Raise
RNC 11.1M
DNC 5.2M
2017
RNC 132.5M
DNC 65.9M
COH
RNC 38.8M

DNC 6.1M (!!)
Heading into 2018, the DNC is less than $200K away from insolvency. https://t.co/ifRY2NYlPD— Michael Ahrens (@michael_ahrens) January 31, 2018
Interesting timing: @DNC files its @FEC report in the middle of the #SOTU, revealing that it raised $5.2M last month, but finished the year with $6.1M in debt. https://t.co/N9mSrDoE7v— Kenneth P. Vogel (@kenvogel) January 31, 2018
Yeah, I don’t blame Democrats for trying to use a highly televised event to file and hopefully bury this report. It’s quite ugly.
WINNING!
“It’s been a long time since a major American political party collapsed.”
That was the “Whigs, right?”
I think that is correct.
DNC debt of 65M is just “crumbs.”
This is why Democrats are so shamelessly desperate to flood America with illegal immigrants. They’ve lost the hearts and dreams of “Main Street America” and everyone knows it.

Not to mention that they aborted their children, Lefties are a dieing breed.
I live on Soc Sec-—and for 4 of the last 8 years, Obama didn’t give us one red cent increase. In his last increase, Obama gave me .3 % POINT 3 percent. He gave Fed employees 2 1/2 %. I got $4 a month——$48 for the whole year. My auto insurance went up $50 a month because the Nevada legislature gave driver’s licenses to illegals. So-—for 2017, I was in the hole $552 on that info alone.
I would love to have been working & to have gotten a bonus of $1000 or more . That would have been very nice. In my household, and in most households I know about, this isn’t crumbs. Pelosi is totally delusional.
Even all the media types are getting an increase in their net checks. NONE of them will say one little work of thanks, tho, will they?
I wonder how much increase Little Georgie got in his ABC check??
All they now offer American citizens is redistributive socialism, division, race-hatred, corruption, resentment, class-envy, despair, a crippled military, unearned entitlements, international weakness, economic decline, fear, governmental tyranny, hopelessness, subjugation and the intentional surrender of our national sovereignty and identity -— all of which are the antithesis of what built and sustained this great nation.
Nothing more for me to add. You nailed it.

The numbers in the original post tell the story of a party that is on the decline and in very poor health.
Essentially, the Democrat party is crumbling, and like a meth addict who can’t stop doing the things that are killing them, the Dems continue to inject the sweet poison of radical liberalism into their veins every day.
As with the addict, it is destroying them, but they cannot stop, as witnessed at the SOTU speech last night, where they demonstrated their toxic, delusional mindset to the entire world.
Politically, that infantile show of #Resistance was downright suicidal. No one outside of the extreme hard left is going to vote for that kind of hard boiled, self loathing hate and pointless opposition.
The Dems didn’t get to this disheveled, broken state overnight. They’ve lost over 1,400 state and federal elections since 2010, and are now at their lowest ebb of power since the 1920s. You’d think that the leaders of a party in that condition would stop and take stock of their perilous fall and studiously analyze what got them there, but no, they’re so intoxicated with their sick ideology, they soldier on into oblivion.
What happened to all the money raised for Hillary?
It would be nice if you got a special one time bonus!
Everything is going up..taxes, groceries, you name it.
These are interesting times we live in.
