I have a running theory that relatively good times bring out more conservative voters. Democrats tend to win nationally when the mess made by the Republicans gets too big to ignore

If he didn’t count all the Democratic presidents, then the Republicans would have all the job numbers! Though we would have been in a continuous recession

Turns out that stacking the deck entirely for a small group of oligarchs doesn’t create as many jobs as spreading that same money around

Maybe that trickle down stuff was a bunch of made up BS to pass tax cuts for the extremely wealthy. Who could ever know?

If there's one pattern in American politics I wish more people would recognize it's that Republicans keep either creating or bungling crises, Democrats keep getting called in to clean up their mess, and then Republicans complain they aren't fixing it fast enough
