People are going hear “the economy is great” from their Oracle. But they’re going to look around their neck of the woods and it’s going to be shite. Instead of wondering if the Oracle is wrong, they’re going to believe it’s great somewhere else. Somebody else is getting all the benefits of a growing economy and it’s probably those libs in the cities…time to go mess that up.

It’s just another vector for him to mine for hate. He’s like a f’ing pig to truffles when it comes to mining hate.
