When did they say “the economy is good?”
During his State of the Union Address:
"Folks, I inherited an economy that was on the brink. Now our economy is literally the envy of the world....America is rising. We have the best economy in the world..."
You can try to reform the Democrats all you want, and I legitimately wish you luck, but I'm pretty pessimistic that swaping them out will do anything. They have already shown that they would rather lose, than let anyone with any principles have power in their party.
