Were 1T attitudes common in 1937 or 1938?
If our 4T started in 08, we're in the equivalent of 1937, about to be 1938.
-- l don't go back that far so l couldn't say, but I believe there was a recession in the middle of the Depression around that time. Economists claim another recession is due to hit in a couple yrs. otoh, the TPP is now DEAD ( boo-yeah!) & the Donald wants to reintroduce tariffs (which the 1930 Congress enacted in 1930) & possibly bring back Glass-Steagle so that may save jobs & ward off a recession.That may, in turn, morph into a 1T, to be honest l dunno
Another thing- starting in 1936 Roosevelt had these landslide victories so the ppl were with him. The Donald just eked out an electoral victory while the hildabitch "won" the popular vote, which may or may not have been rigged (we'll have to see if wikileaks releases any more emails) so ppl are divided. Roosevelt won the popular vote in 1932, but that election was tighter than the later ones. Hoover only served the 1 term, O'Hoover served 2, delaying economic recovery by 4 yrs (a jobless recovery is not a true revovery) 8yrs really, since those tariffs should of been enacted in 2009. Instead Wall St got bailed out & Main St was left to wallow in crappy Mcjobs & underwater mortgages. I suppose the Donald could fill the FDR role- Bernie fit it much better however- we shall have to see
