Introduction

The Democrats are irrationally mad at everyone but themselves for their failure in November of 2016. The pundits and pollsters all felt that Hillary Clinton had it in the bag. The news media staked their credibility on it. All of them lost. Huge.

Forgotten in their irrational anger is the fact that when Obama became President in 2009, the Democrats had control of both houses of Congress. Since that date, the Democrats have lost most of the legislatures in the country, hold a very nominal number of governorships, have lost both the U.S. House and the U.S. Senate, and now have lost the Presidency. But the Democrats are mad at everybody but themselves.

My point is this, irrationally angry people do irrational things. And 2017 is going to be a continued experience in irrational behavior by the Democrats and the media. This will make governing difficult. Bottom line, it will impact our economy, and you need to factor those impacts into your investment decisions. We hope we can give you some guidance and help you with that.
