If these facts hold true, 2018 will be a winner for the GOP

Virtually everyone in America who owns stock has been greatly benefited by Donald Trump and his deregulation policy/lower tax policies.

Virtually everyone in America who has a retirement savings account and has seen no growth for eight freaking years,  suddenly has growth in their savings accounts,  their IRA accounts (43 million Americans) and their 401K accounts  (54 million Americans).  

Unemployment is at a record low with more folks actually working than 17 years ago.  

Black unemployment is at an all-time low of 6.8%.  Let me repeat:  Trump has brought Black unemployment to a record low,  not seen since the day records for Blacks began to be kept.  

Expansion in the service industry is at its strongest in 12 years.  

 We are exporting more food out of the country than at any time during the Obama years  . . . .   food exports up 9%.

Barack tried an failed.  Hillary didn't even try  . . . . . .   too damn busy stuffing her pockets full of money.  And Trump,  well,  he took care of business in less than a year in office.

      You think I need the Times to tell me what Dems think they know about Barack Obama's economy? Good grief.

      Barack grew the Market at a nominal rate of 15 to 18% each year, on average. Keep in mind that all Market growth in the first two or three years following Jan 20, 2009, was only a RETURN to where we should have been if not for the crash. Retirement plans for anyone with money in shared savings was virtually non existent. Trump's first year Market added more than 8 billion to our economy in the first year. Barack bragged about 2% GDP as being the "new normal" as if he knew anything at all about GDP and the Market's relationship to a national economy.

      Lowest unemployment rate for Blacks in recorded history (back to 1972).

      Highest consumer confidence rate in two decades. Highest participation ration in 17 years.

      Go suck a rock and stop pretending that your side of the aisle has a clue as to how to put that back to work. Your people not only don't have a plan for that event, they don't care if the blue collar nation ever goes back to work.

      yOUR NUMBERS are exactly why the participation rate remained at a 40 year low, why GDP was "normalized" per Obama at less than 2%, why retirement saving plans and 401K plans had all but died under Barack.

      Trumps Market has set more than 70 record highs and has created 8 billion in wealth
