It really isn't that hard. Just stop bitching about our nations employers like they are pieces of shit.

"In the first five quarters of the Trump presidency, growth has been almost 40 percent higher than the average rate during the Obama years, and per capita growth in gross domestic product has been 63 percent faster."

Plenty of Americans who aren't particularly fond of Trump remember that. It may violate their virtue signaling to admit it to a pollster, but the bad old days of the Obama doldrums weren't great for many working-class and white-collar Americans.

During the Obama "recovery," it was common for workers to go to bed at night and wonder they'd still have a job in the morning. Now it's employers who are wondering if their workers will be there in the morning, or if they'll have been lured away by better wages somewhere else. How many workers really want to flip that script back?

Remember: Not a single Democrat voted for the tax policy Republicans are touting for helping power the current economy. Prominent Democrats like Sen. Elizabeth Warren are loudly campaigning on repealing those tax cuts and returning the Obama-era economic policies.
