It's one of the points i was trying to make when all the trump supporters were ignoring his behavior and say "my 401k is doing great". It was never going to last forever but his horrible precedents he has set can. Stupid tradeoff IMO.

And the other option is? Thats correct there is no better option than Trump for our economy. The proof is in the pudding

I think his point is you can benefit from his amazing economy and still hold him accountable for his behavior. If the market tanks what does Trump have to run on? I know his amazing way with the best words!
 
And this corona virus? The liberal media needs to STFU. They are praying for this to negatively affect Trump. More people will die from the flu and nobody bats an eye. You take precautions as you should. It will mainly affect those most prone to flu like viruses. The panic over this is ridiculous just like that Ebola nonsense a few years back

Stop looking at it like its only a sickness and look at the protocols put in place around the world. If we follow those trends and start shutting schools, businesses, and entire cities then the economic and social disruptions will be hard and far reaching.

We deal with about 50-60 truck drivers a day coming from all over the country where I work. Lets say one of them brings it to my place of work and we have 10-15 warehouse workers get sick and the company shuts down per previous protocols around the world. Think bigger picture here to grasp the full threat this virus poses.

I definitely don't think the economy will boom forever, but it will as long Trump's in office!! All kidding aside, everybody knows that EVERYTHING moves in cycles including weather and business...
 
Funny thing is I think they've gone from under to overreacting about this virus and as I've alluded to I don't have a conservative view (in fact, I'd likely call myself a moderate lean, and I know from lurking here that someone has said in here that there's no gray area to politics).

The economy will reset just like every economy does. Eventually the world will have to face the music on the debt and printing money it has done for so long. It does not matter who is in the WH Senate or House. All are corrupt. There will be a war against the govt one day. Maybe sooner than later if a liberal communist socialist gets control. Bloomberg thinking he will get guns. Bernie thinking he can support everyone with free money. Don’t get me wrong. I don’t classify myself as R or D. I am a believer in freedom guns and supporting my family with hard work. Not lazy live off system people or snowflakes.
 
What I don’t get if someone wants To live off the government have a communist socialist government. There is plenty of countries to move to.
 
Look at the past century or so, the US uses a blend of capitalism and socialism. Today less of that money goes to the poor and more of it flows up to the rich. We still have socialism, but who benefits is what's changed since the days of FDR.
 
I don't think the economy is going to crash. The fed will lower rates again, trade resets and more good things to come. No matter how bad the dems/media/deep state wants the virus to crash everything and bring down the president, it's not going to happen. We should all just be happy about things while they are good. Things will change one day, it always does. But why rush it and ruin the present.

What do you recommend? Flat tax? More taxes? Higher taxes on the rich? Does poor pay any taxes? Free health care? I agree health care sucks. It bankrupts people but if we go to socialized medicine. Then you will never see a doc. For surgery.

Leave your "trump is a god" bubble for a few minutes and view this as the big picture. It's a different world when you take those blinders off and step out into the real world.
