He only has to convince a slight majority that he has fixed, or is fixing the economy. He only has to work his propaganda magic for five months.

Investors are not confident that the economy is going to be booming, they are confident that, as long as Republicans are in charge, there is no way to lose. It is a happy gambler that keeps his winnings and has the house cover his losses.

The only "winning" in the coming economy will be the transferring of massive amounts of wealth from the workers to the top few percent; Republican heaven.
