2019: President Hillary Clinton's finest yet.

This is CNN...



Good evening, and welcome to our 2019 presidential year in review. Three years into Hillary Clinton's first term, you could say, she is just hitting her stride. Quite frankly, by any measure, economic, foreign policy, or just sheer change in the way Washington DC works, the president has been on an unprecedented roll. 



Absolutely Jake, let's start with the economy. President Clinton has overseen a booming economy. An economy with the lowest unemployment rate in a half century. We all thought that five percent unemployment used to be 'Full Employment' but the Clinton Boom, as it's called, has seen rates down in the three percent range. Just astounding. Truly great news for all Americans. 


So true, so true. And not just overall unemployment Chris, but if you drill down into those numbers, you will see two things that stand out. One is the unemployment rate among African Americans is at the lowest rate ever recorded. Let me say that again. The lowest unemployment rate among African Americans, a key voting block who will be key to re-election, is at an all time low. That is really good news for President Clinton. 

Second, if you look at wage growth, it is rising, and growing fastest among low and middle income earners, another key group, especially in swing states. 



One hundred percent agree Chris, but let's not forget one thing that fired up much of her base in the last election; Judges. In three short years, Hillary Clinton has pushed through so many judges to federal bench, that right now, she has named a full quarter of federal appellate court judges, and over twenty percent of all federal judges. Plus the two justices to the Supreme Court and maybe even one more, all before her first term is over. Truly remarkable. The Clinton court and federal bench will be deciding cases, and shaping the rule of law for decades. What a great legacy for this president. 



Absolutely, and with all this great news the president has seen this year, we haven't even talked about the stock market. Record high, after record high. The Dow Jones, the S&P, all finishing strong. The S&P 500 is up an astounding thirty three percent since her election night victory. The Dow has gained ten thousand points since election night. 



Seriously, I've been in this town for three decades and have never seen a president with such and impressive record on the economy, foreign policy, trade deals, the list goes on and on, truly incredi.....



(Wake up Wolf)
(Wolf, wake up, we're live in thirty seconds)


Hold on. Oh man, I just had the most incredible dream. It was wonderful, Hillary was president, and everything was so great. Oh, it was incredible. 



(Aaaand we're live in three, two.......)

Good evening, I'm Wolf Blitzer, and this is a presidential recap of 2019. The worst year of what will surely be Trump's first and only term. Let's start with the Muller Report and the President's ties to Russian collusion......
