The democrats fear a good economy.....with good reason


Ahhhh…..the economy.  Like Paul Krugman of the NYT, I don’t know a LOT about the economy per see.  Sort of like ammunition in combat, I imagine more is better.  I WAS pleased to see that un-employment was at the lowest point it has been since 1968…nothing to sneeze at there…I at least know that.

And apparently by knowing that, I may know and appreciate more than do the mental giants on the left.  John Hickenlooper, fresh off of a stint of trying jack up Colorado, turning it into a blue state, has said that a great economy is nothing to crow about…… "nobody should be beating their chest over that ... We've got a long way to go", and  "certainly we're making progress and that's great." But he added, "is it fast enough for most Americans? I don't think so."
Nancy Pelosi thinks the job numbers and booming economy is still only benefitting the top 1% (I think she was talking about herself).  Joe Biden dismisses the economy by asking you to look deep into yourself and ask if you “feel” better (I was completely unaware that how I felt had anything to do with the economy…..like I told you, I don’t know that much about it).


I think that there are two reasons that the left shudders at good economic news. One is that, prior to his being embalmed, Bill Clinton ran successfully under the “it’s the economy stupid” sound byte, and the left piled onto that.  How can they now run against a strong economy…..I guess they are depending on a bunch of college aged dumbasses that don’t  “feel” good.  But another is this…..none of the people running on the left….NONE of them, can point to anything they have done in their past, that contributed to a good economy.  Cory Booker was a mayor, his former fiefdom is trash.  Hickenlooper worked at warp speed to turn the beautiful state of Colorado into a blue state shithole.  Kamala Harris and Elizabeth Warren have contributed nothing, in or outside the senate, towards a strong economy (and have ideas that, if implemented, would throttle economic growth in its’ cradle).  You KNOW Bernie Sanders’ record of consistent failure (his current love of socialism is playing out as ALL socialists’ plans do, in Venezuela, right now).

So…in the end, a robust economy and low unemployment not only proves their Sun God Obama to have been WRONG about our new normal, it highlights their own failure and failed ideas in the economic world.

And yes Joe Biden….I feel REALLY good about that.
