GOP seeks lift from 'Trump economy'

President Trump is overseeing a robust economy — and receiving little political dividend for it.

Now, the question is whether the near-certain passage of a tax-reform bill this week will change that or whether widespread opposition to Trump is a semi-permanent part of the political landscape.

Trump’s approval rating is the lowest of any president at this time in his tenure since modern polling began. In the RealClearPolitics average as of Monday afternoon, 37.9 percent of the electorate gives him the thumbs-up but 57.1 percent disapprove of his job performance.

That finding comes in the face of a plethora of positive economic data.

Don't worry GOPers we've had nine years of straight growth. One of the longest in a while. You'll fuck it up soon enough and get the blame.

they're trying to take credit for ongoing effects of obama's tenure in office. they only thing they deserve credit for is not entirely screwing it up... yet. though this is down to their incompetence more than anything else.
