OrangeVerse XXIX: Marking Time in Ohio

As you know, the president was on a campaign stop in Ohio at a small manufacturing firm. He was talking tax cuts, and bonuses and everything coming back.

And how do we know it was a campaign stop, not an official visit? It's all here, chapter and verse.

18-20-18-18

We've got to do

well in '18 and

I know we're going to

do great in '20. 

But I think we're going to

do well in '18. 

I think we're going to

do well in '18. 

I think we're going to

do very well. 

They have gone left.

They want to raise your taxes.

You know, 

I figure we're safe.

I'm a (stable) Genius
Historically when you win
the presidency --

you know the story. Just,

for whatever reason  it is --

and I think

I figured it out.

Nobody, really

has been able to 

explain it

properly.

I think

I figured it out -- 

the party wins the presidency.

And now the people are happy

and you see tax cuts,

in this case or whatever

that party is - 

but you see the big tax cuts, 

you see what we're doing

jobsarecomingback.

And the people that

voted for us become

complacent a little bit.

They're happy.

No Movies for You
And it's only two years - 

between '16 and '20

and so it's two years.

So it's a short time.

So the people are happy.

And they don't get out,

and they don't vote

like they should.

Maybe they go

to a move in '18. 

None of you

are going to a movie,

I hope.

Right?

Feel Like '18 Again
So what happens is

they sort of take it

for granted. They

sit back and then they

get clobbered because

the other people

are desperate and

they get out and

have more energy. 

But I think

because of what we've done

because of the tremendous 

success we've had,

I have a feeling

that we're going to do

incredibly well in '18.

And I have to say this:
History is not on our side. 

They Call The Wind the Midterms
But it's not because of that word complacency.

You win the presidency

and you take it easy and then they

come and surprise you

in the midterms.

They call them the midterms...

So that's what happened.

And that's what happens in midterms.

But we're not going to 

let it happen to us I mean it's -

traditionally, that's what goes on.
But we're going to be in there

fighting because we don't

want that tradition to go.

We want to have

 tremendous success... 

But we have to have, to have

tremendous - we have to have 

tremendous success.

And if we don't we're just foolish.

Don't Stop Believin'
We can't - I know we're going

to do great in '20 because by that time

see what happens is, 

if you did badly in '18

now you're all angry again

 and you're going - and now, '20 comes along.

But we want to do great

in '18 and we're going to do really well

in '20. That's when we go again

and we keep this 

great

journey

going.
