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. 

The Bernie Crowd

Someone did a survey and found that around 53-percent of folks who say they are for Bernie.....will not be agreeable with anyone from the Democratic Party in November, if Bernie is not the chosen 'one'.

A mess?

Well....if you sit and think about it.....the type of characters from the past thirty years of politics....were anything but similar to Bernie. 

Mostly from the northeast and northwest of the US.....Bernie took around 13-million votes in the primary.  I won't suggest similar numbers like this in 2020, but he's likely to take a minimum of seven million votes. 

If 3.5 million of those walked away from the Democrats in 2020?  It's a problem, and really forces up the scenario where Trump could win all fifty states.
