    “Economists argue that Republican nostalgia for the economy under Trump’s first term is largely misguided (https://apnews.com/article/trump-economy-biden-election-president-e3a153c9b0c615ea6e0f2afb91cdc785). However, the GOP’s pessimism over current economic conditions resonated with voters.” (who were wrong, and will suffer from #47’s policies economically and in many other ways - I hope I’m wrong)

    Historically the economy fairs better under democrats than repubs. I’ll be happily surprised if this is not the case. And, like so may others I’m looking for ways to spend money between now and Jan 17, in the hopes that I won’t have to spend as much when the tariffs raise the price of things. Hmm, what will I need to spend money on now, so I don’t have to spend any for the next 4-6, or more, years. smh.
