Trump's popularity position suggests he's re-electable, but don't forget how Bush 41 utterly blew it
Ahead of Obama, Reagan and Carter at this point in their presidencies, only Carter wasn't re-elected.
If liberals had any brains, or principles, they'd crucify Trump over illegal immigration just as conservatives crucified Bush 41 over taxes, but they have neither brains nor principles. Bush 41 proves you can go from stellar to defeated in little over a year, but Trump, as old Republicans keep reminding us, is no Bush 41.

Beauty for beauty's sake, knowledge for knowledge's sake.

If this were an economic recovery like past ones, you'd think we could put together a string of year over year increases on a quarterly average basis above 3.5% lasting a couple of years, but that is still far from the case. The best quarter we've had is 4Q2018 at 3.46%.
Employers still have the whip hand.
