Official LRC President Joseph R Biden Thread

Joe-nomics continues to kick tushie

Many investors had high hopes going into 2024. The market’s robust first-quarter rally still managed to surprise them.

WSJ:

Everything from stocks to bitcoin to gold marched to new records. With one trading session to go, the S&P 500 is up 10% in the first quarter, set for its best start to the year since 2019

The economy continues to defy expectations. Recession worries have mostly disappeared. Resilient corporate profits, enthusiasm around artificial-intelligence developments...

What’s your favorite earmark?

First they need to lose the blubber.

California obesity rate: 28.1% (5th fittest state in nation)

Mississippi obesity rate: 39.4% (4th fattest state in nation)

Are you a paid poster or a bot or just a no life old person?

I don't know how someone posts non stop, all day every day on a running forum in a political thread.

It's comical. Why are you spending your life this way?

Stock market under Biden: Average 2% annually above inflation

Stock market under Trump: Average 10% annually above inflation

Since you are obsessed with Mississippi:

Supplemental poverty rate:

California - 13.2% Highest in the nation (other than DC)
Mississippi - 12.5%

Home ownership rate:

CA - 55.8%
MS - 69.9%

Homelessness rate
CA- 0.47%
MS - 0.04%

The problem with California is most people don’t realize that it is the most poverty stricken state in the country.

median income CA: $85,300

median income MS: $53,085

Spin away, but fact is the median Californian is far wealthier and has a far higher income than the median Mississippian. or WVian. Or Alabamian. Or Lousianan. Or Wyomingian. Or Dakotan. Or Missouran. Or any of those permanently red places that have had economic misrule for generations and generations.

For you all to think in any way CA is an economic problem...I can't even imagine what you think about all the millions of wasted lives in red states who live in such relative poverty compared to blue states.

Don't worry, Noyanke and Gary and Sally will do their very best to pick up the slack.

I guess we know that's NOT a Repub. federal lawmaker. Certainly in the self-owning vicinity, Gary. But who's surprised?

Yep, whatever it takes. He is VERY bad, whether you try to minimize it, or not.

Play stupid games, win horrible prizes (lost democracy). It's happened other places, it can happen here.

NOT a game, but you Trumpers refuse to grow up.

Can we please use a stronger word than "dopey" for believing that RFK is still alive?

But also far from sure that I give enough historical knowledge credit to enough Americans that being "The RFK" would actually mean much, anyway.

If we take this at face value, it DOES say something that EVEN Donald Trump can't scare the pretentiousness and self-righteousness out of the far left. Geezus. And for shame.

At least the liberal arts professor at Madison who voted for West is ONE LESS person we need to feel sorry for when the brown shirts burst into the faculty lounge......

Trump is asking us to compare 4 years ago so we will.

4 Years ago today Trump gave a press hit where he threatened to quarantine the entire state of New York because Floridas covid cases were rising and because New York did a terrible job (and they didn’t vote for him like Florida did)

This was only weeks after Trump promised the cases would dwindle and the virus would “go away”. And this was around the time Kushner was punishing blue states by withholding PPE)

we forget what an awful leader Trump was if we don’t remind ourselves of these things.

Biden is raising 2X the dollars Trump is. Trump is spending much of his on legal fees and losing. Money wins elections in this country. Closer to Nov, the airwaves / internet will be flooded with Trump's own words showing how much he hates Democracy, the Constitution, and how much he loathes average Americans. The same will happen for RFK with his wild conspiracy theories. Joe won't even need to speak or campaign.

Trump is not gaining new supporters. Those he has are loyal at a cult level, but that lost him 2 popular elections (worse the second time) so far and most of the elections of people he has endorsed.

Biden isn't perfect, but the economy is good and he is the incumbent and has more money. Biden won the last election by 5% because people were sick of Trump. It isn't a lock, but the odds favor Biden.

Yeah, well, you're conveniently forgetting that he personally formulated and distributed (Warp Speed, Warp Speed, Warp Speed!!!) the deadly vaccine for the fake virus.

But I remember that. Because I'm a patriot.

Because Trump deserves credit for getting that vaccine out so quickly. Nevermind the vaccine was fake genetic engineering and killed more people than the virus itself.

Pure Blood

The person in Biloxi making $53,085 a year has a far better standard of living than the poor soul making $85,300 a year toiling away in Los Angeles.

Four years ago today, as Americans were dying in hospitals, Trump went around his team of elite medical professionals to instead ask A-Rod for advice on how to handle his failed COVID response
