Whoever framed this did it solely to salvage Beto's fading chances. Even by its own measurement he's not much more electable than Biden.

Real GDP YoY 2015 2.9%, 2018 2.9%.  POTUS approval rating 2015 low 40s, 2018 high 40s.

The economy absolutely sucked in the second half of 2015, yet obama’s approval rating was higher than trumps. Amazing what 98% positive vs 98% negative press will do to the model.

Then compare to 2006 if you like.  Same GDP gain, lower POTUS approval.  I stand behind my statement, it is not unprecedented to have a weak  POTUS support with a halfway decent economy.

  • Dems-greatest existential threat to USA republic!
I have yet to see anyone post a name of a candidate that can defeat Trump.  I believe the ONLY person that has that ability is HR Clinton, and only if the economy begins to seriously tank.  Otherwise, Trump walks all over her like the road, and no one else has a microscopuc chance against Trump.

Right now, Trump wins 4 more years.  I see nothing threstening that outcome.

The Democommies have literally zero!
