It's the future economy, stupid: Trump bets his reelection on better times ahead
by W. James Antle III

At the center of President Trump’s reelection campaign is a simple message: America is back and ready to turn the page on the coronavirus and its economic fallout.

“Vaccine or no vaccine, we’re back,” Trump declared at a White House event on Friday. This is usually the argument an incumbent president makes during an economic boom or a victory over a great national challenge. Ronald Reagan’s “Morning in America” reelection theme came after stagflation was whipped and the economy was growing at 6.8%.

Trump is making this argument while the coronavirus still rages, and, as he acknowledged, there is no vaccine. Some 36 million people in the United States are out of work. Trump is appealing to his past economic success, promising that things are going to be better in the near future and that he is the man who can make it happen.

It’s an approach that served Trump well in business, as he battled through bankruptcies and setbacks, but it is a risky reelection strategy. Nevertheless, it could work.

Well, if the market is any indication; it's been rallying and back up from its lows in March.  Confidence means a lot and obviously people have confidence in this President whether you like him or not.  Also, for what its worth his poll numbers are higher at this stage of his administration than both Bush and Obama.

IF the DEMS weren't afraid of him winning re-election -- they wouldn't have drawn out the Russian collusion b.s., nor impeached him and certainly would have stood behind him in this pandemic... just sayin'.

Personally, I believe he may lose re-election due to the corruption and fraud from the left, but then, I'm not a real optimist when it comes to the government.

The economy will be back in all but of a few Blue states. Unfortunately, Ca., IL., & NY will affect the GDP and growth won't be as strong as we would hope for.

However, Trump doesn't need the economy to be roaring to be re-elected. The Rats have cemented their globalist pro-China positions in the media. Trump has proven he understands economics and how to get the USA rolling. Trump wins big!
