Delaney Mirrors … Trump? Ex-Rep. Says It Seems Dems Are ‘Cheering On’ Recession

Democratic hopeful John Delaney, who has spent much of his presidential campaign trying to stand out from the other dozens of Democrats in the field, subtly echoed the rhetoric of an unlikely source on Wednesday regarding fears of an impending recession: President Trump and, by extension, Fox News.

“Delaney argued that it ‘feels’ like some Democrats are ‘cheering on a recession’…”

They’re…cheering on the steps Trump has taken to obliterate the economy? That’s…excuse me, I think I have whiplash. Or vertigo. Or…

Delaney would have made a great Democratic presidential candidate…in 1871.

Yeah, Delaney. Making remarks like that are going to boost you right to the top of the electability list of Democratic candidates.

Hey, why don’t you also start complaining about Hillary’s emails and Obama’s tan suit? It’s worth a shot! It might get up to .004% popularity rating in the primaries!

Who cares what John Delaney has to say?

Can we get a story on the Hong Kong protests? Or the fires in the Amazon? Or Kashmir? Or any of the significant policies put forward by actual Democrats that have a chance at being the next president?

Oh f*ck off. Pointing out that Trump has done damage is not rooting for recession. And it’s certainly not the economic sabotage we saw from Republicans during Obama’s tenure.
