The Trump Economy continues to disappoint

Well, it is disappointing Democrats.  New Harris poll of blue collar workers says they think that they're better off than they were 5 years ago and that the economy is on the right track:


This part is particularly interesting:
Blue collar workers are slightly more likely to identify with the Democratic party, 35 percent vs. 31 percent for Republicans. By a small margin, they think Republicans do a better job of helping blue collar Americans than Democrats, 39 percent vs. 36 percent.
I'm so old, I remember when the Democratic Party used to actively support the working guy.

Same problem as up here. The lions have run away with the mo movement, and left the working man to flutter in the breeze.
