Trump has no right to be running, if you believe his own words.
If she were to win, it would create an unprecedented Constitutional crisis that would cripple the operations of our government,” he said. “She is likely to be under investigation for many years, and also it will probably end up – in my opinion – in a criminal trial. I mean, you take a look. Who knows? But it certainly looks that way.” “She has no right to be running, you know that,” Trump said. “No right.”
Former President Donald Trump said in 2016 that a president under indictment would “cripple the operations of our government” and create an “unprecedented constitutional crisis” – years before he himself was indicted on feder...
“For someone who's done business with Trump for many years in the 90s, I'm here to tell you that what you hear about his incompetence and ability to run businesses into the ground isn't accurately portrayed. It's vastly worse than your wildest imagination can conceive.”
Except it’s not amazing for some. The stock market being higher doesn’t mean the economy is thriving. There are a lot of white collar layoffs happening. And I wouldn’t be shocked at all to see a large correction soon - the rate cut was to try to give the appearance the economy is fine through November
My family is fine but is angry when shopping and what would have been ~10 days of food for $250 under Trump is now between $350 and $400. My chipotle order is now $15 dollars instead of $10 and chick fil a is up similarly. I / my family can stomach these costs but isn’t happy about it. Now imagine what it’s like for a working single parent raising multiple kids on $50k per year.
Trump: 10% stock market growth per year above inflation, about 3 million immigrant apprehensions at the border over 4 years, no wars in Ukraine or in Israel
Biden / Harris: 2-3% stock market growth per year above inflation, about 11 million immigrant apprehensions at the border over 4 years (more in FY2023 than under 4 years of Trump), new wars in Ukraine and Israel (on the verge of Iran going nuclear).
Since I'm speaking to the supporter of a pathological liar, I'll presume that the economic and immigration numbers are BS (i.e., lie in the bed you made). On foreign policy, I'll go ahead and describe your "analysis" as sub-grade schooler. And anti-American, to boot. Blaming bad behavior in the world that has no clear causation by the U.S. on the U.S. IF the wrong party is in the WH. Pathetic and bad.
Your lack of knowledge is astounding and reflective of Democrats in general:
Leftist author Fran Lebowitz said late last week that President Joe Biden should dissolve the U.S. Supreme Court because she does not like the fact that the majority of justices are constitutional originalists.
Lebowitz made the remarks during an appearance on liberal comedian Bill Maher’s HBO show “Real Time” on Friday.
“It’s so disgraceful, this court, that it shouldn’t even be allowed to be called the Supreme Court,” Lebowitz fumed. “It isn’t. It’s an insult to Motown to call it the Supreme Court. It’s not even a court.”
She falsely claimed that the Supreme Court ruled that presidents can act as kings and do not have to obey the law, which is not what the court ruled.
She said, “When they passed that law, that ruling, where they said, ‘You’re not the president, there’s a king,’ which is what that ruling is, you can do whatever you want, you can never be held responsible, I thought, ‘You know, Biden is still the president. No one seems to notice.’ But I think Biden should dissolve the Supreme Court.”

“It is hard to imagine a candidate more unworthy to serve as president of the United States than Donald Trump. He has proved himself morally unfit for an office that asks its occupant to put the good of the nation above self-interest. He has proved himself temperamentally unfit for a role that requires the very qualities — wisdom, honesty, empathy, courage, restraint, humility, discipline — that he most lacks. Those disqualifying characteristics are compounded by everything else that limits his ability to fulfill the duties of the president: his many criminal charges, his advancing age, his fundamental lack of interest in policy and his increasingly bizarre cast of associates. This unequivocal, dispiriting truth — Donald Trump is not fit to be president — should be enough for any voter who cares about the health of our country and the stability of our democracy to deny him re-election. For this reason, regardless of any political disagreements voters might have with her, Kamala Harris is the only patriotic choice for president.”
Wait one second, your source is the editorial board of a newspaper in a city where 9 in 10 are Democrats? Glad to see you are keeping an open mind.
I’m a long time Democrat but the economy is terrible.
It's not terrible. It's below average for most, amazing for some
Mark Zandi @Markzandi I’ve hesitated to say this at the risk of sounding hyperbolic, but with last week’s big GDP revisions, there is no denying it: This is among the best performing economies in my 35+ years as an economist. Economic growth is rip-roaring, with real GDP up 3% over the past year. Unemployment is low at near 4%, consistent with full employment. Inflation is fast closing in on Fed’s 2% target - grocery prices, rents and gas prices are flat to down over the past more than a year. Households’ financial obligations are light, and set to get lighter with the Fed cutting rates. House prices have never been higher, and most homeowners have more equity in their homes than ever. Corporate profits are robust, and the stock market is hitting a record high on a seemingly daily basis. Of course there are blemishes, as lower-income households are struggling financially, there is a severe shortage of affordable homes, and the government is running large budget deficits. And things could change quickly. There are plenty of threats. But in my time as an economist, the economy has rarely looked better.
JPM:
"The US stands out as the only large economy in which GDP has risen faster than our estimated 2019 potential growth rate path would have anticipated. ... The US has been deemed exceptional in its ability to generate a complete post-pandemic recovery in the face of large negative supply shocks and substantial monetary tightening."

You do know that inflation spiked after the pandemic? Right now we are dealing with corporate greed and price gouging…not inflation. The Trump base(uneducated/dumb white people) seem to think because gas and grocery were cheaper under Trump means they were lower BECAUSE of Trump. What specific Trump policy caused grocery prices to be cheaper?
Pure dictatorship, you morans are voting for. Shame.
Trump says his idea for stopping crime is to allow for “one really violent day”: “One rough hour, and I mean real rough...”
Iit's yet another joke from Trump. But even if it were, who would care? Life was great under Trump and I'd love to see him as president for life.
1) Insanity.
2) Life was great under Trump? What part? The number of jobs (2.7 million) lost during his administration (first since Hoover to lose jobs during a term)? The mishandling and dismissal of the pandemic so that hundreds of thousands of Americans died who didn't have to? The great economy he inherited from Obama (ok, that was pretty sweet)? The unemployment rate spiking to over 10%? The temporary tax cuts for mooks like you and permanent ones for wealthy people and corporations? The attempt to overturn a fair election? The "great people" he hired either going to prison or quitting and telling us all that Trump is an idiot? Trump's actions that resulted in him being impeached twice? The hiring of his unqualifed daughter and son-in-law to be key figures in his administration? Do you mean the low gas prices caused by the pandemic and short recession we had (you can have prices at $2 again if we have another pandemic or recession). Was it the lower wages then? Was it the higher prices for some prescription drugs then? Was it when he suggested we inject disinfectants to combat COVID? How about when he thought there were airports during the American Revolution? I know, maybe it was when he said that since the stock market went up a lot, that the national debt was gone? Was it the emboldened white supremecy group that marched with tiki torches chanting, "Jews will not replace us?" Was it how Trump used the DOJ as his own personal law firm? Was it when Trump cozied up to dictators around the world and wrote self-described love letters to Kim Jong Un?
3) President for life? We don't do that here in America. There are countries that do. I'm sure Kim Jong Un would love to put you in a work camp if you'd like to live in a country with a President for life.
4) The fact is that The United States is great, and under NORMAL Presidential leadership, the fortunes of normal Americans is pretty much unchanged...opportunities are always there, tax differences are minimal, US policy remains mostly unchanged. The problem is that Donald Trump is not a NORMAL person. He's a dictator wannabe, and he's the dumbest President we've ever had by far. I WISH this election were only about taxes and government spending and regulation...but it is WAY more than that. Your guy wants to do away with The Constitution and become a dictator. You don't seem to care about that, but most Americans do...that's not who we are. We enjoy our freedoms, and that doesn't happen when a dictator is in place.

In North Korea you get executed for wearing sunglasses. How would you like to live in a country like that?
