Seriously we're not that stupid Pete!

And the China thing is a short term hit because of the trade tit-for-tat going on in negotiations. When it's resolved watch the DOW jump up. But I’m sure you will credit Obama for it once it does.

The issues… It is being reported that Omar married her brother to scam the immigration process to get her brother into the country, then while professing devout Muslim ideals does things, consensual mind you, that would get her stoned in the country she came from for sins against the religion she professes, and how she uses that faith against those who criticize her. Seems if it weren't for double standards, the left wouldn't have any standards at all.

You should know I think the Democrats are too right wing. Trump is what we call a chancer. May your God bless you if you genuinely believe half the nonsense you spout.

Eighteen of the 19 poorest states have legislatures where both chambers are Republican controlled. New Mexico (46th richest, fifth poorest) is Democratic. But there isn’t another blue or purple state until you get to purple Maine (31st richest, 20th poorest) with its “split” legislature of one party in each chamber. All the states in between (such as Tennessee and Florida) are Republican, both chambers. So is Michigan, where Republicans hold all high state offices (where Donald Trump won in 2016). Above New Mexico, you jump all the way to middle of the pack Vermont (27th richest, 24th poorest) to find a state with both legislative chambers held by Democrats.
Significant evidence suggests that fake news and misinformation impact, for the moment at least, predominantly the right side of the political spectrum (e.g., Lazer n.d., Benkler, 2017).
