Ari Fleischer: The Only Issue Dems Have Is ‘Energy Against Donald Trump’

‘That is huge for Republicans running for re-election because that takes a lot of the energy away from the Democrats who can’t stand Donald Trump’

EXCERPT:

DOOCY: "Ultimately, the decision people are going to have in November it's who did something for me? Was it the Republicans who did the tax cut which the Democrats regard as crumbs on the way to talking more about Russia, Russia, Russia."
FLEISCHER: "And it’s not only that. It’s how well the economy is doing. The fact we have 3.9 percent unemployment. The president is wise to keep banging on the fact that African-American Hispanic unemployment all-time low. He can actually make up good numbers with those demographic groups. But what’s the most important number out there, the president’s disapproval  was at 58 percent in December and now it's down to 52 percent this morning. If that number gets below 50, that is huge for Republicans running for re-election because that takes a lot of the energy away from the Democrats who can’t stand Donald Trump and that’s what drove a lot of the turnout for the Democrats in the special elections."
