Joe-Nomics continues to...well you know. The kicking tushie thing. The stuff that wins elections like earlier this week.
GOLDMAN: ".. The United States is on track for growth of 2.4%, a full 2 [percentage points] above the consensus forecast of a year ago."

Neither one should be president. Let’s instead have a showdown between DeSantis / Haley and Harris / Buttigieg.
Out with the old. In with the new.

If you people stop voting for Republicans, Trumpism will go away. If you keep voting for Republicans it will stay. It's all on you.
you vote for Republicans, this is what you are voting for. They stand 99% behind Donald Trump and are too scared to stop him even when they disagree with him. Not even people running against trump for the nomination will criticize him.
It's up to voting Republicans to turn their ship around but they are not doing it.

let's check in with the Trump administration's October 2019 shall we? We all forget what a sh/tshow it was. In comparison, the Biden timeline is more like 'Joe got the job done quietly without any scandal, without any mass resignations, and without being impeached twice for obvious crimes and misdemeanors."
President Trump expresses interest in building an electrified moat filled with alligators along the southern border with Mexico, forcing his aides to find a cost estimate. He also proposes shooting migrants in the legs in order to slow them down and threatens to close the 2,000 mile border with Mexico in an effort to control immigration.[9][10][11]
White House officials tell reporters that President Trump frequently engaged Vice President Mike Pence in the president's efforts to pressure Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelenskyy to find damning information on Joe Biden and his son, Hunter.[12][13]
A second whistle-blower comes forward to the U.S. intelligence community with corroborating first-hand information concerning President Trump's call with Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelenskyy.[16][17]
Acting Secretary of Homeland Security Kevin McAleenan, the fourth person to serve in that post during the Trump presidency, resigns. "Kevin McAleenan has done an outstanding job." President Trump tweets that he will announce a replacement in the coming days
Former U.S. Ambassador to Ukraine Marie Yovanovitch, in defiance of a White House ban on cooperating with Congress, tells the House impeachment inquiry that Trump personally pressured the State Department to have her ousted from her position.[
President Trump falsely claims that Kurdish soldiers—former allies in the War against ISIS—are releasing ISIS POWs during the Turkish invasion of Syria following President Trump's order for U.S. troops to vacate the country
Fiona Hill, past senior official for Russia and Europe on the National Security Council, testifies for nine hours before House panels regarding a July 10 meeting with senior Ukrainian officials, then-National Security Adviser John Bolton, and other U.S. officials including U.S. ambassador to the European Union, Gordon Sondland.[40]
The House of Representatives formally condemns President Trump's withdrawal of troops from Syria by a vote of 354–60.[44]
Acting White House chief of staff Mick Mulvaney confirms Trump blocked military aid to Ukraine in order to force investigation of his political rivals.
White House press secretary Stephanie Grisham confirms Trump's statements and says the White House is cancelling subscriptions to two both The Washington Post and The New York Times.[
A federal judge holds that Education Secretary Betsy DeVos is in contempt of court for violating an order to stop collecting on student loans.
The House of Representatives votes to formally endorse the impeachment inquiry 232–196, mostly along partisan lines. White House press secretary Stephanie Grisham condemns the vote, calling the inquiry a "a blatantly partisan attempt to destroy the president"

Amen! Bidenomics is putting us in a financial death spiral:
Interest on the debt exceeded $1 trillion (amounting to 20.4% of revenue, the highest percentage ever).

note that the Republican idea of how to cut spending is to gut the IRS, which would result in even larger deficits. This is a true story - that's the absolutely counterproductive strategy they suggest to pay for Ukrainian aid. It's so nuts I can't even believe it's true.
But sure, yes, I blame the Dems too for not cutting spending.

What chaos? Eggs went up a few dollars? Crime went up in areas you don’t live in? Is the chaos in the collective imagination of whoever isn’t in power (yes)?

By your logic all Republicans are "Trumpists." In that case I don't care about [your version of] "Trumpism" going away. I'm not going to vote whatever idiot runs in my state or town district with a (D) after their name because "Trump." There are actual issues on the table that adults care about.

They are. The Democrats fought tooth and nail against them and fear-mongered that the global economy would collapse, but they got some good spending cuts last spring.
