Well, of course they do, they don't have the financial cushion that the wealthy have to weather any difficult times.

Evil Obama tried to help Trump. Trump did not listen.

"during a White House meeting days after Trump’s election, Obama told him that “given the importance of the [national security adviser] job, the president through there were better people for it, and that Flynn wasn’t up for the job.” But Trump proceeded with hiring Flynn anyway. Former New Jersey governor and longtime Trump confidant Chris Christie has also said he directly advised Trump against hiring Flynn.

“If I were president-elect of the United States, I wouldn’t let General Flynn into the White House, let alone give him a job,” Christie said in 2017."

Small time bike maker not enjoying Trump tariffs:
For one thing, his company relies on imported parts — rims, spokes, tires, cranks — most of which come from China. Tariffs on those also increased 25% since last fall, driving up Detroit Bikes' expenses. To counteract that, Pashak is painstakingly evaluating each part, to see whether cheaper alternatives are available elsewhere.

He's looking at parts made in Taiwan, which aren't subject to tariffs. Or Cambodia, which he says is "the new hot country ... that everyone's trying to rush into."

Yeah, Mueller found he was asking his people to find them even after the election. There was actually some Senate senior aide proposing working with the intelligence agencies of China, Russia, and maybe even Iran to get them. It didn't go anywhere.

If you don't need Trump for your own re-election, this should be an obvious choice. But many need Trump. Till he is gone for sure.

Yeah, that's important, but really the US Congress needs to take a look at that nasty woman's involvement in Benghazi with fresh eyes. And of course nobody should be allowed forget how she coerced or extorted all the other eight members of the CFIUS to sign off on the Uranium One deal.

To be fair, I think most Republicans would acknowledge that women in politics is generally a bad idea - unless they're organising the drinks and nibbles for their husband and his friends of course.

Best economy ever!
Reich:
Add to this that almost 80% of American workers are living paycheck to paycheck, and you get a feel for the havoc so many families are living in.

Meanwhile, the costs of education, childcare, housing, and health care are skyrocketing. Trump hasn’t done a thing to help. If anything, he’s made everything worse.

Student loan debt is in the stratosphere. Remember the old promise that if you took a public service job your student loan would be forgiven? You can forget it. Betsy DeVos’s Education Department has rejected 98% of forgiveness applications.

Housing is out of reach for young workers, which is why so many are living with their parents and postponing marriage. Yet Trump keeps cutting affordable housing.

Child care is becoming impossible. The average cost of center-based child care for an infant is now $1,230 a month; $800 a month if you park the tot in a family childcare home.

Health insurance is a nightmare. Last year alone, 30.4 million Americans went without any coverage – about 1.1 million more than the year before, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s National Health Interview Survey.

But the stock market is up, so what's the problem?
