I doubt the left can manufacture enough OUTRAGE (racism, sexism, fascism, bigotry, xenophobia, ageism, the rich, RUSSIA....) to overcome the all the good economic news.
But they will, of course, try. So buckle up for a ton of hate provoking rhetoric until November.

Democrats sound plain silly as they continue to attack the GOP tax cuts.
Former Democratic National Committee Chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz (D-Fla.) said at a recent town hall that $1,000 bonuses “wouldn’t go very far,” and they were taxable, so it wouldn’t really be $1,000 after all. Amazingly, she also said she hadn’t heard of any bonuses bigger than $1,000.
Is she really that out of touch? As Fox Business host Charles Payne noted in a tweet, Wasserman Schultz represents a district where the median household income is $50,000. Does she think her constituents wouldn’t welcome a $1,000 windfall?
Moreover, she apparently missed the announcements that Waste Management will pay $2,000 bonuses to 34,000 employees. She also failed to notice similar payments recently made by Fiat Chrysler and Apple.
Wasserman Schultz also neglected to mention the pay hikes announced by many companies, including AT&T, Wells Fargo, Fifth Third Bancorp, Boeing, Walmart and Comcast, that will make a permanent difference to workers going forward.
Is Debbie not keeping up? Or is she so panicked over the avalanche of good economic news triggered by the Trump agenda that she can no longer bear to read the headlines?
She made the disparaging comments while appearing with House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.), who has been leading the charge against Trump’s tax cuts.
The wealthy Pelosi has famously likened $1,000 bonuses to “crumbs”; this, from a woman who in 2011 called a $40 payroll tax savings passed by President Obama a “victory for America.” At the time, Pelosi tweeted that the $40 weekly benefit would “make a difference” to the American people.
