Sell the Economy!!! [View all]

We all know the democrats are better on job creation and returns on the stock market historically. So why aren't the geniuses in the party selling this? I can't be the only one who is perplexed by this. Run ads with graphs and charts showing how the stock market does x percent better under democrats. Have a voice over if you want to make more on your 401k, decades of historical data show a better rate of return under democrats. Run ads how many recessions have happened under republican administrations vs democratic administration. Run ads showing job creation under the last 3 democratic administrations vs republican administrations. Run ads showing the Dow Jones and S and P at record highs. Run ads showing the avg fico score is up over pre-pandemic levels. Heck run ads that inflation is down to 2.4 percent. If you want to eat into trumps lead on the economy as an issue start attacking it. As James Carville use to say, it's the economy stupid. Does anyone really think if the republicans had these facts on their side, they wouldn't be talking about it on every talking head show and running ads with it non-stop? Of course they would.

Please recommend this up if you agree with this and maybe we can get this message to the party leaders and the people running campaigns.
