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
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
the trade stuff had an impact
yeah
most trump voters in 2016 were fairly left wing economically too iirc
that's economic
but that's not what he's campaigning on now
or has been
because he can't
i mean he kinda tries to
like he's downplaying coronavirus because of its market effects
can't remember where i got this from
yeah but remember who trump ran against
the most reviled woman in America, on both sides
