Where's all the hoopla about the Dow Jones hitting an historical marker?? While in Trumpville, we heard about every upward hiccup.

Nada.

Strange that (not really).

Oddly though, most people prefer Republicans on the economy.

Yes, the Democratic Party has messaging issues.

Seriously, I don't remember a lot of positive reporting on the national news programs, other than pointing out that a strong Dow would be an electoral benefit.
