Some of us have priorities that benefit everyone that transcend the economy. Yes, the GDP rate has climbed a percentage point or two. Stock market is going stellar (and overdue for a correction). Unemployment is lower. All of that was happening before Trump took office and was, for most of us, at reasonable levels. The incremental change since Trump took office simply doesn't impress most of us on the left and moderates, when compared to the cost for making it happen. We look at regulations we feel are important being gutted, we look at tax breaks going disproportionately to the wealthy and to large businesses, and we look at the undermining of the ACA and we find things are NOT going in the right direction. In fact, MOST of us think this. But Trump does what you are doing - focus on what is important to the right, and ignore the things that moderates and the left feel are important.
We shall see in 2018 and 2020 what that produces.
