Let's go!

Dream on Jeff. I have insider information; the economy isn't tanking. Your portfolio has taken a hit, but the fundamentals are great. Oil, down. Eggs, way down. Inflation, at its lowest point since Trump was in office for term 1 of 3 or 4. Job Growth, UP. Gov't job growth, down. Tariff revenue, way up. Government deficit, again at its lowest point since Trump.

Dream on Jeff. You are controlled by your very real hatred.

By insider information, do you mean the voices you listen to inside your head? Tariff revenue is below Trump's expectations.

Keep telling yourself everything is awesome!

Jeff - I don't panic. You are awesome at panicking.

As noted, everything that was UP under Biden is now down. Inflation, Eggs, Oil, Government jobs, illegal immigration, Gov't Fraud Waste and Abuse (thank you DOGE and Elon!)

Everything that was DOWN under Biden is now up. Jobs, Foreign Investment in USA (7 TRILLION!!), Deportations, military morale, Border Patrol Morale, and Tariff Revenue is UP!

The country is happy. Jeff will die miserable. Oh well.

I wouldn't need cash until after 2028 when the Democrats take back the White House. Historically, the markets do better when there is a Democratic president.

Just laughing as Trump screws up the economy and watching MAGA trying to explain it away.
 
I traveled mostly the southern US from Dugway Proving Grounds to Puerto Rico including everything from Texas to Florida.

No one in the Southeast in the places I saw were at all scared of COVID. Hell, Universal's water park was packed in late June 2020. Zero fear.

I did see real fear and real stupidity at airports. One lady in Utah was DEEPLY upset by someone standing too close to her in the boarding line. UNREAL.

Puerto Rico - as close to a BLUE state as I visited. Empty beaches, no tourists, nightly curfews, etc. The people were fine, but tourism was their lifeblood.

Dugway - let's just say DARPA people in May 2020 weren't wearing masks when having conversations on remote parts of the base. Mind you, one had to wear a silly mask to get on the base and was supposed to wear one everywhere.

The deep MAGA people I saw were living life during Covid. They were not cowards and not supportive of the lockdowns because in rural America they did not have them.

African Americans are smart enough to remember the government using them as guinea pigs and I have friends whose grandparents were used for experiments.

Plus, MAGA can see through bullshit just like the original Total Recall when that guy started sweating. Deblasio offering free burger, other state lottery tickets, and on and on. As Reagan said, "Hi, I'm from the government and I'm here to help"......

There were lots of Trump voters petrified of Covid. I would agree with you that, by and large, those living in rural areas were not the ones who had such concerns. But your suburban Trump-voting neighbors ... a whole lot did.

I think the bolded is very good. My concern, which your post does not mention, is with the vaccines and the 1986 vaccine law that protects vaccine manufacturers from civil personal injury and wrongful death lawsuits. Vaccine injury does happen. Why are vaccines looked upon differently than other meds of which drug manufacturers can be sued civilly?

First I am not an expert in this law. Second, I do think there's a compensation fund that does pay those who have sustained vaccine injuries. Third, vaccines are generally viewed as of such benefit to the general public (at a very low financial cost) and the limits on lawsuits help to maintain said benefits without costing us a lot more.

In certain contexts, it might make sense for allowing this type of lawsuit for a less proven but potentially important vaccine. I don't have a strong opinion on that, but it would certainly mean such a vaccination is much more costly than the typical ones.

Not so fast. When a single party controls both the White House and Congress, the stock market has done better under Republicans than under Democrats.
 
Keep focusing on immigration while the economy tanks.
Let's see how The Economy is tanking.

1, Jobs up OVER 100,000 than "experts" forecast.
2. CPI down for FIRST time in 4 years.
3. WTI crude down from OVER $ 80 + a barrel to 60's.
4. 30 year fixed mortgages DOWN.
5. Eggs per dozen down.
6. Gas per gallon, 85 Octane, down.

I on the other hand cheer for the President's economic policies to work, for the benefit of the American People

Especially for the huge percentage that are living paycheck to paycheck !
 
I don't know that it is that high a percentage.

Let’s say that is accurate. That means Biden and his admin imported about 3,600 violent criminals to just Denver, in one year. Think about the numbers nationally.

It seems reasonable that some aren’t freaking out about mistakes being made with 1 non citizen, especially one that had been in the court system.

Also a reminder of how crazy it is that people on the left didn’t care about what Biden/Harris did, and mocked people who voiced their concern.

On Easter the most important Christian holiday of the year, Trump takes the opportunity to post a rant of grievances.
He is just not capable of sending out a nice Easter message. He really is unhinged.

Not in my suburban circle ......

However, suburban liberals were for sure. Plenty of irrational people back then. I likely so them most at big box stores since they were afraid of people. Otherwise, contact would have been minimal.

I do recall a likely lefty leaning math teacher telling his father about zoom algebra. My only question was how much are they learning? I was surprised when he said maybe 1/3 of normal. That would have been early May 2020.
 
It is not fantasyland, it is the United States and it is required by our Constitution. Appoint immigration judges/magistrates and make it happen.
Nope. Your people broke the constitution letting them in therefore the constitution doesn’t protect them when getting kicked out.
The previous dumbf¥€k administration set the constitution on fire and left this administration to put it out. And they will. By any means necessary.
 

Here is the truth not Charlie Kirk BS regarding recruitment.

Hope they keep Hegseth, the clown show is quite amusing.

We agree. Hope they keep Pete.

It is just common sense that the military is more popular with a strong commander in chief. Biden and Democrats blew the best recruiting opportunity since the 80s in Top Gun.

I do recall, Jeff "I'm for Due Process for illegal, wife-beating, gang-bangers" saying he was ALL for kicking out battle hardened American warriors who didn't want the death jab. Jeff also wanted people to lose their jobs for not taking the death jab and was totally onboard with restricting access to the US for those who chose not to comply.

When Jeff was afraid for his life, he was willing to give up all rights.

I am not head of DHS, posing Barbie is. First it might only be less than 11 million. Second I thought Trump was only deporting the dangerous and the criminal illegals, maybe a million? Third, part of the Immigration Reform Act that Trump had the Republicans vote down called for the significant increase in immigration judges. That was quite a few months back. This is a voluntary problem. Lastly, as with any issue or plan that needs to be solved, it can be accomplished thru resolve and effort. Pentagon was the world's largest building at the time it was built, and during a war, and it only took a year.
Dumb compounding dumb.
Again, your people illegally created this mess and you want our people to follow your rules when correcting it? Absurd.

It may be common sense to you but that is not what happened. They increased their recruiting efforts in a number of ways. They also created pre-boot camp training to allow potential recruits to get up to speed before actual boot camp. The best results were in August 2024 well before the election.

Biden had bad immigration policy but he did not violate the constitution. If he did, please point out which article he violated. The constitution is in force when deportations occur.
At least you are honest that you are willing to toss the constitution aside when it doesn't serve your purposes.
These immigration matters should be solved in short order.
Much rather discuss the economy. Will see how long it will take for Trump to fix what he blew apart. Trump owns the economy now after liberation day. Biden is irrelevant.

The prior admin probably should have done that if they were planning on allowing millions to surge our border.

They started a fire. Now they are real pissed about mistakes being made while putting it out. I don’t love it either, but bad things will happen when you intentionally overwhelm our systems.

I think we would all have different anecdotal stories about this. Certainly not the experience I had, outside of the elderly people in my neighborhood.

We hung out with neighbors regularly during COVID. Inside, didn’t worry about who was vaccinated and who wasn’t, let our kids hang out all the time. All of my conservative neighbors were comfortable doing that.

Of course we all had COVID early and often, because we socialized a lot. But also, no one got really sick. Kids spiked high fevers, parents would be fatigued for a few days, but outside of that we didn’t see anyone getting seriously ill.

Where in the Constitution do you find that provision that Biden broke by letting them in?

AS I posted previously, perhaps a bit too crudely. Recruitment increase has nothing to do with eliminating woke or Trump as President(or a weekend Fox news host has DOD Chief)

They had a bill negotiated to do just that when Trump told the Repubs to vote it down because it was a campaign issue. It worked for him, but now you can't complain.

I can certainly complain that they let that many people in, in the first few years of the Biden admin. No one can honestly blame that on anyone else.

Trump went further shutting down the border. That bill still would have allowed a pretty significant # of people in each year. He shut it down. So I can’t blame him for the issues that were created the last 4 years.
