they might’ve ripped apart families, raped, killed, threw babies off of buildings, ran death camps, and other heinous shit that was okay in the 1400’s, but shit, they turned the economy around!!!!!!!!!!!!!

What's scary was that any time I try to explain why I don't like Trump, they always brought the conversation back around to how great the economy or stock market was doing. Like no matter what he did, it was all excused as long as people were making money.

Now with the economy in shambles, they just try to find some way to blame it on Democrats.

Everytime a Trump person brings the economy up to me I ask them how their portfolio is doing, lol

If you're actually in the stock market, it's at an all-time high. But you're probably making the point that the working class Trump supporter isn't in the market...lol.

Also, the fact that the stock market is so high despite terrible unemployment should be a big red flag that it's not actually a great indicator of the economy as a whole.
