Yes, let’s flush the vibrant economy so we can all feel better. Typical liberal nonsense.


But it seems to be playing well here in Wisconsin where people have the choice of keeping prosperity, lowered property taxes, less regulation, 2.9& unemployment with Walker and getting rid of that by raising all taxes, eliminating manufacturing in the state, allowing teachers union bosses to again dictate property tax rates, and so on with know-nothing Evers. A statistical tie if you follow/believe the polls ...

There is, of course, nothing about President Trump that is unpresidential. The man defines the office. This man in particular has added a depth of understanding, of quality, of bravery, and of a deep seated commitment to our nation that has gone unheralded for too many generations.
His detractors are themselves an insidious rabble of malcontents bent on sullying the pride of our inheritance: our history, our traditions, and our cherished Constitution.

Yeah.....because Obama wasn’t hyper partisan and divisive. Oh and rule by “phone and pen” showed so much respect for checks and balances. :rolleyes:

Anything any Leftists can throw at Trump, I can throw right back at Obama. The difference is Trump’s policies work, are good for America and benefit the American people directly. Obama’s policies were a complete failure.

Such articles are, and will be everywhere this weekend.

Just like every election in the last 50 years.

And yes, it is hedging.

Because just like every election inn the last 50 years, nobody really knows for sure what the outcome will be.

Oh Look! Another Obi Wan moment!

AP says “Ignore that vibrating economy! Focus on your hate for that Bad Man Trump!”

They must be crapping their poopers. It’s the Economy, Stupid!

Funny how they trumpeted that far and wide when The Rapist had half the growth rate and unemployment numbers

what part of “checks and balances” doesn’t Trump respect?

He’s not issuing illegal Executive orders, and he is always telling Congress to fix the things that only they have the power to fix

No, it doesn’t *complicate* the voting decision.

It makes it far easier.

President Trump is acting very unpresidential!

If compared to the last 50 years of the luciferian puppet presidents!

"Or do they back Republicans in hopes that the economy will continue thriving"

"In Hopes"? They are desperately trying to throw a wet blanket on President Trump's accomplishments.

amazing that AP admits that Dems are bad for the economy ...

Except for this little gem: "For some, all that matters is the energized pace of job growth, which began under President Barack Obama and has continued under Trump." It didn't begin with obama and it has ACCELERATED under President Trump, but hey, we have obama's "legacy" to protect.

Sorry, you are wrong!! It is the RIGHT/ CONSERVATIVE population suffering from a mental disease.
WE are suffering “LEFT-A-PHOBIA”, a disease passed on by deranged “leftists”.
I guess I (we) must be labeled “LEFT-A-PHOBES” It can only be cured by massive Republican voting. H*E*L*P

The choice is clear. What prez Trump is doing works fantastic ... if you want to keep the country intact with that old Constitution and rule of law thing going.

Many people don’t want that. They want the Constitution destroyed and then entire culture of liberty, freedom and prosperity to end. For them, there is no other way for the totalitarian oligarchy of pedos to get possession your children. Yup, I went there. That’s what they ultimately want.

“It’s a two way street, or is he just supposed to take it?”

Yeah, because it worked so well for both Bush administrations.

President Trump hits back twice as hard and they aren’t used to it.
By now they’re so punch drunk they can’t think to do anything but keep flailing away.
In a way I feel sorry for them.....NAH, I’ll just enjoy the butt whipping they’re getting.

A healthy economy has at least complicated their decision and blurred the outcome of the midterm elections .

Isn't there a Song- I seem to remember "I Can See Clearly Now, the Libs are Gone"?

It’s about time the LSM are called out for not acting like Professional Reporters and Journalists and for inciting division and violins.

Those dreaded violins!!!!! ;)
