Who said they were economically smart? All they ever did was spew some bullshit about trickle down economics and take credit for what Dems did when they reduced the debt.

the gop are supposed to be economically smart but I just don’t see how eroding our soft power, shifting our workforce to lower income industries, making goods more expensive, and attacking education are supposed to work for the American people

*i* don’t say they’re economically smart but the cultural stereotype has been that republicans are the party of fiscal responsibility for well over half a century

I stg this was always said sarcastically. Holy mother of cosmic irony. Calling republicans the party of fiscal responsibility, unironically, is like calling a pyromaniac a firefighter bc he pays his water bill.
