One day the president strikes a negative tone on trade with China via Twitter (see Aug. 23), the stock market goes in the toilet. The next day — or hour — the president hints on Twitter that trade negotiations with China are going well and a deal may not be that far off. Stocks rip higher, until the next concerning China trade tweet.

Those were real issues. Today the gap between red and blue was stirred up by the left for pure political gain. Which will backfire.
The leftists lawless craziness helped elect Reagan in 1980 and Trump in 2016. Americans are right of center.

Among a long manifesto list of looney left goodies with no plan, except an ineffective wealth tax, to pay for them. Only Bernie is further left and crazier.
