if trump runs exclusively on socialism vs capitalism he will probably lose

Poopulism

i think the coming economic crash is gonna hurt trump bad

cuz americans dont rlly care about that debate

by election time

probably not honestly

"debate" simply means get choice clips for owns, the theatrical reality of modern politics

crashes always hurt the current president, always

maybe if it was an economic collapse not caused by a disease

it depends whether a crash happens or not too

markets are tanking but the chances are it will probably subside after a while

it doesn't matter why, a crash is a crash

in historical and political terms

didn't obama get reelected after a crash?

or crisis rather

he got reelected after a sluggish recovery

the crash didnt really hit until like, 2009-2010

it just started in 07-08

yea

Trump bounced back from like 300 bankruptcies so an economic crash shouldnt be no thing

ye and he won reelection in 2012

but that's different than a crash hitting like, in election year

but itd be a bloomberg type to win

a radical socialist candidate to rebuild an economy isnt an option people would likely pick

it really depends how trump places his narrative

probably

we will have to see how tonight goes, the overrepresentative impact of the black vote can swing the Dem primaries in many directions

he's not even remotely a 'radical socialist'

trump should go all in on banning trans stuff

if there was a huge crash he could probably run on a protectionist platform and default back to the original america first stance

he'd win the black vote

i mean, look at the talking points that got trump elected

it was mostly economic

not really

not really

he won off immigration

?

trump didn't come into the race arguing for deregulation and free markets over socialism

did it matter, we still got called racists and that "economic anxiety" was a cop out

it was immigration and nationalism which won him the election

he promised a return of manufacturing, he ran on things like TPP
