It is extremely difficult if not impossible to defeat an incumbent president when the economy is doing well. Just ask 1984 Democratic nominee Fritz Mondale, or 1996 Republican nominee Bob Dole.
In the case of Donald Trump, the economy isn’t just healthy; it’s reached unprecedented milestones. America is enjoying the longest expansion in history. Unemployment reached and remains near a 50-year low. Nearly 7 million full-time jobs have been generated under Trump, including nearly a half million manufacturing jobs, after two decades of serious manufacturing decline widely viewed as irreversible.
There are two tacks from which to choose in confronting this politically. Democrats can argue that our prosperity is grossly exaggerated. Or they can claim they deserve the credit for the Trump economy.
Which of these strategies, both decidedly dubious in their chances of success, have the Democrats picked?
Both.

Americans Should Be ‘Deeply Afraid’
February 22, 2020 at 10:54 am EST By Taegan Goddard 74 Comments
Retired Navy Admiral William McRaven — U.S. special forces commander from 2011 to 2014, including the 2011 SEAL raid that killed Osama bin Laden — writes in the Washington Post:
“As Americans, we should be frightened — deeply afraid for the future of the nation. When good men and women can’t speak the truth, when facts are inconvenient, when integrity and character no longer matter, when presidential ego and self-preservation are more important than national security — then there is nothing left to stop the triumph of evil.”
National Security Adviser No Longer Advises
February 22, 2020 at 9:09 am EST By Taegan Goddard 95 Comments
“When President Trump’s national security adviser, Robert C. O’Brien, convenes meetings with top National Security Council officials at the White House, he sometimes opens by distributing printouts of Mr. Trump’s latest tweets on the subject at hand,” the New York Times reports.
“The gesture amounts to an implicit challenge for those present. Their job is to find ways of justifying, enacting or explaining Mr. Trump’s policy, not to advise the president on what it should be.”
“That is the reverse of what the National Security Council was created to do at the Cold War’s dawn — to inform and advise the president on national security decisions. But under Mr. O’Brien, the White House’s hostage negotiator when Mr. Trump chose him to succeed John Bolton in September, that dynamic has often been turned on its head.”
Trump Will Try to Block Bolton’s Book
February 21, 2020 at 10:49 pm EST By Taegan Goddard 111 Comments
President Trump has told his staff that he will look to block the release of John Bolton’s upcoming book over claims that their discussions were classified, adding that his former national security adviser is a “traitor,” the Washington Post reports.
Trump has specifically insisted to aides that Bolton’s book, The Room Where It Happened, shouldn’t be published before the November election.
WOULD BE HITLER.
Trump’s America leads the world in cutting greenhouse gasses
Just wondering who elected Admeral McRaven to formulate foreign policy?
Just wondering who elected Admeral McRaven to formulate foreign policy?
I wonder when it was decided that the success or failure of a President was supposed to be based on the opinions of people in the previous administration. I recall many Bush Administration officials who didn't necessarily agree with what Obama did, but nobody pretended it was somehow the end of the world that there was disagreement.
That that all took place while the former community organizer was failing at all aspects of the economy, foreign relations, and most everything else.
These former Obama officials are losers who are upset that the people who replaced them are getting things done that they never did.
If Trump Losses the Democrat winning will retain every single current Trump appointee in their current job.
James have you addressed I your own words Magic Mike Bloomberg did in the debate?
Is this the kind of poll that IF holds in actual voting Rockets Socialist Sanders to where I want him, to the unstoppable Nominee ?

"But Right now Trump would win the election if Bernie Sanders wins this election." Roger
You just said the outcome of the 2020 Presidential election hinges on who wins Nevada.
Ok, don't revise or reverse your prediction.
James, you boi Master Mike gets caught.
"Twitter is reportedly suspending 70 accounts, some of which are backed by Michael Bloomberg’s campaign, that have posted identical messages in support of the Democrat’s presidential bid, calling the content “platform manipulation.”
Winning!!!
