Turns out that the real threat wasn’t immigrants stealing jobs.

Many of us knew that before the election. Even in 2016. The Felon was (and is) incompetent, and knows nothing about economics or economies.

I have to give credit that the Reps have managed to convince working class people that they represent them. They most definitely do not, but Reps convinced them all the same.

Reps continue to be the party of the uber-wealthy, and tax cuts for said wealthy, and income inequality, and destruction of the middle class. Dems don't want any of that, and never have (at least in my lifetime). The Dems probably allowed themselves to get too distracted with pronouns and other nonsense, allowing Reps to claim that Dems didn't care about the working class people.

I have little doubt we're headed for a depression at least of the scale of the 1890s (worse than the 1930s, as I recall). I don't know when. Could be starting now. Likely within the next four years, with continued bad management about the Felon. I'm not sure how quickly things will react with this poor management. Economies are like ships...if you turn off the engine, they continue on for a bit under pure momentum. But eventually they will stop unless you turn the engines back on (and, please, steer away from the icebergs).
