The 38-Percent Crowd

I saw this mentioned this morning.....38-percent of Americans are unhappy with the way that the President (Trump) is handling the economy. 

So you sit there and think about this.

My brother would be consumed with economic news and almost teary-eyed with the current results of the economy.  And by teary-eyed.....it'd require him to say that things just haven't been this good since the 1950s.

I sat and pondered over the 38-percent thing, and then came to realize......some folks are thinking that that even this era.....just isn't good enough.  These are the folks who think we can achieve one-percent unemployment, get CD-levels back up to 7-percent, and find some way to afford $8,000 vacations to Aruba every year. 

Here's the thing....we've only scratched the surface of the Trump economy for 3 years.  To be honest, we need year four to year eight....to reach the level where the 38-percent folks would finally get weepy-eyed and actually drinking cocktails nightly like the 1920s era.
