It's going to happen again folks

Donnie Short Fingers and the Retrumplicans have put in place economic policies that are going to fucking screw up this country "bigly".

Fucking Trillions in debt, a giant fucking Stock Bubble about to fucking burst, trade wars that will fucking make the 2008 Recession look like a fucking walk in the park. Home values destroyed. Foreclosures, unemployment, inflation and quite possibly the next great Depression (hey, it's been almost 100 years since the last one...we're due).

All just in time for the Dems to take back the House and possibly, the Senate.

You know that when the shit hits the fan, the Retrumplicans aren't going to blame themselves (see the entire Obama Presidency for reference).

Dems need to be ready to punch fucking reporters in the throat that even "hint" that our coming nightmare is ANYTHING BUT THE FAULT OF THE RETRUMPLICANS

We know it's going to happen, and we know that 55% of Americans have the attention span of a gnat.

Dems better be ready to fight the fuck back hard.

spend their time in power cleaning up Republican messes. If we head into another recession, the Dem cleanup crew will work tirelessly to patch up the economy with the GOP eagerly awaiting another round of wrecking ball politics, all the while complaining that Dems aren't working fast enough, effectively enough.

We're in an era of Whack-a-Mole policy.
