That pretty much goes without saying to anyone on this board. The problem is that the average American has a totally skewed perception of reality. It boggles my mind that Trump has convinced them that he is their economic savior. We really need to be much more vocal in touting the accomplishments of the current administration and emphasizing that the next administration will be even better.
