GOP favorables were also dogshit in the initial months of the 1st Obama term; not much evidence they serve as a weight on unpopular POTUS midterm backlash (they also improve over-time, as is already happening in current polling e.g. Dems are now leading on the economy)

As an aside, even I'm surprised at how quickly Trump shot his economy advantage to shit. All he had to do was *literally nothing* and he'd probably still have 50% or better approval on that issue...

I made a comment above on this topic and my brain had thoughts of maybe this is our Tea Party movement while typing it up. And your comment makes me go mmmmmhhhhmmmm. ItтАЩs a good thing weтАЩre awesome and better and have morals. Our type of Tea Party movement wouldnтАЩt be a careen to the left like their movement was to the right. ItтАЩd be a careen to fucking winning. ItтАЩs time play the game differently.

Speaking of playing differently, why didnтАЩt Dems call in CEOs gouging us in the shopping aisles? Instead, we were stupid and were like, тАЬLook over there!тАЭ (Famous RuPaul Drag Race quote for when the queens did a mock political Presidential debate.) Someone needs to drag in the CEOs of Coke and Pepsi and ask, тАЬWhat in the actual fuck?!?тАЭ Everyone has some explaining to do at this point, even the eggs. The whole thing got way past the point of inflation and got into price gouging.

They also need to be asked if Donald Trump cut the corporate tax, why are they needing to jack up prices to screw us? We gave them tax cuts and they gave us higher prices. ThatтАЩs a campaign slogan right there.
