30. which significantly impacts his ability to get reelected

Fri Feb 28, 2020, 01:55 PM

Feb 2020

The one thing he had going for him was the momentum from the Obama economy.
40% of the stock wealth gained on his watch just got gobbled up by the coronavirus scare .. and it is still falling.

With the regulations he's stripped away, that may well cascade into full blown recession/depression. Banks are probably scrambling to call their loans. Those who were leveraged beyond their means won't be able to pay.

With the trillion dollar deficit Trump is already running, recovery stimulus may be much harder to come by. Even if it does appear, it is in the hands of idiots who will want to earmark dough for his stupid wall.

So he and we are in a pretty grim situation.
