@jett2017 I’m not sure what Trump contributed to the economy beyond massive deregulation (& rollbacks of laws BO enacted to prevent another recession like the 2008 too-big-to-fail recession). There’s a lot of evidence indicating Trump sold rollbacks to corporate donors (quid pro quo).

@jett2017 —Oh, and the #TrumpTaxScam (which was great if you’re a billionaire, a Trump, a congressman or their heirs). For the rest of us it was a massive con job that created a short-term stock market boost and a ballooning deficit that will burden the middle-class for decades.

@jett2017 But, blowing up the deficit with corporate welfare is part of their plan and gives them a reason to destroy Medicare, Medicaid & Social Security, etc., —most of which do not contribute to the deficit, but they’ll blame “entitlements” anyway.

@jett2017 Also, we were at full employment under Obama (mostly because of the #ACA) which they’ve for the most part destroyed. We should expect unemployment to rise under Trump (because of republican policies).

I have to run. I’ll respond to your other tweets later.🙋🏻‍♀️
