It turns out voters actually care about the current economy.
So, you violate every rule and norm available to rig the system. Cook the books on your tax cut scoring to pretend it won't harm the budget deficit, okay. Cut interest rates while we're at full employment, sure. Create market chaos with international trade so you can time the release of newly optimistic information to juice the markets, of course.
Just make sure there's no recession or visible economic weakness before November 2020. And even if there is, simply deny that it's happening.
The playbook is sitting wide open.
