And GHWB is the sole Republican who caused more recessions than he fixed.  Unlike Democrats, Republicans are able to realize when their policies are destructive, and to change them.  Austerity was one of the policies that was destructive and had to be abandoned.

Are you serious? Reagan ran his game plan successfully, but let's not pretend it didn't impact GHWB. And his son GWB did the same, but hit a wall while still in office. Pumping money into the economy in good times is a recipe for disaster. We're about to see how much of a disaster Trump has created by handing money to his friends and punishing everyone else. His off-the-charts tax cut is still out there, creating havoc. The rich and large corporations aren't needing any help. It's everyone else.
