Crnr2Crnr Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 25 minutes ago, Angry ginger said: trump will continue to lose support all the way to the GE and lose the popular vote by more than he did in 20 and 16 IMO. Even in right leaning counties in 20 he couldn't get the percentages needed to override the urban/suburban counties in key states. He's never been the popular guy he likes to pretend he is and he's turned off a lot of the right leaning center. only reason he will get some of them is the alternative is a dead man walking. you'd better be careful, someone will want to know if you have a penis and you won't get an invitation to come aboard his yacht.

State spending on infrastructure as an example is almost switched off. I realize that is only one "for instance." Commercial development isn't happening, residential work is half of what it was. All the major indicators that we pay attention have everyone highly spooked. The only thing holding the economy up is we are in an election year and Powell was compelled to start dropping rates.

That’s not good for Trump. Biden will be the next president. Imagine that, a democrat hoping for negative ads.

Just one man's opinion, but we in trouble. a recession is long past due, but all that stimulus ching and historically low interest rates were a recipe for disaster. also, price gouging hasn't lost its grip since 2020. far as I'm concerned, hit the reset button, increase the f'ng interest rates and let the free market decide who the winners and losers will be.

We must just be lucky here I guess. Neal 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

f7ben Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 Trump is going to destroy Biden in the general. Biden is probably one of the 3 worst presidents of all time. Just pathetic that he’s actually being trotted out there again. He was fully senile the first time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We must just be lucky here I guess. Neal For the most part there is a common denominator. Without question there are parts of the economy that are strong like job availability however that doesn't paint the whole picture. Cumulative CPI since Biden got into office is up close to 20% and even CPI isn't a perfect measurement. Wages for the most part have not kept up. People are feeling it and it is showing up in the polls. https://www.usnews.com/news/best-states/rankings/fiscal-stability Edited January 16 by Highmark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
