10. So I'm At My Gym

the other day and a woman is explaining her Trump vote to another woman.

Trumpster - Hillary just had too much baggage. She lived in the White House before. Her husband would have come with her, you know.

Other Woman - Well, I don't know about you, but I had more money when her husband was President.

Trumpster - Well, the economy was better then, it's true. He was President at a good time and then Obama came along and ruined the economy.

I hear similar things all the time, and this isn't even Trump territory. I'm not sure what the antidote to this is. I thought about this for a long time, and the only thing I can come up with is that Dems need to do a better job of getting the word out about what they are actually doing. Or trying to do but being held up by Congress. "Obama ruined the economy" is straight out of Fox, so there needs to be a counterpoint. Something along the lines of "Obama tried to get A LOT more people eligible for overtime with no help from Repubs."
