8. It won't happen

How would you "tank" the economy. Stop shopping? Don't buy prescriptions or groceries? Don't shop at Amazon? It won't make a difference. You'd have stop everything. No food, no fuel, no medicine, no doctors appointments, no car repairs, no travel, no buying. No rent, no mortgage payments, ho home repairs. That's crazy. Switching suppliers? Yeah, right. Like switching to an independent pharmacy will make a difference. CVS doesn't care, and you're still pumping money into the economy. If you're a business, you have to ship stuff. You have three choices: USPS, UPS, and FedEx. Change from one to the other? No one cares. Take the train instead of the plane? Sure, that'll make a difference. Buy books at your indie bookstore? Again, that's still money into the economy, and Amazon doesn't care. Publishers don't care, as long as you buy their books.

Imposing tariffs was supposed to add jobs here. It didn't. So maybe that's the right move to tank the economy. Run the deficit into the trillions? It's there now, and nothing's happening, and it seems only economists care.

On a macro level, you may be right, in the sense that if statistics show a decline in the economy, RWers might think twice. In the absence of a recession, the economy seems to be marching along almost independent of who's in office. If unemployment goes up? Maybe. Depends on who's affected. But, a cult is a cult is a cult. Fundamentally they don't think twice. They don't even think once. They vote R and go home satisfied. Because voting D means women, gays, black, immigrants, et al take over, and they simply cannot have that happen.
