  1. The shift from FDR economic policies to austerity under Biden/Harris:
  2. The shift from progressive (FDR) economic messaging to Thatcher/Reagan austerity helped usher in a Republican House in 2022 and a dismal Red Tide in 2024. Courting Republicans doesn’t work. Punching down does not work. FDR economic policy may be distasteful for Establishment Dems to embrace. But austerity is a losing hand for Democrats. Time is a flat circle.
  3. The Alex P. Keaton persona rebirthed. History rhymes, over and over again.
  4. This Seal 6 trumper is losing it.
  5. Trump’s Log Cabin Republican strategy unveiled: Tate calling the shots for Trump
  6. Treasury Market continues to price in trump win and wicked inflation that comes with his economic policies. Weak employment data today (deflationary) was unable to counter the greater risk of Trump inflation. Trump loves the poorly educated.
  7. The “Trump Trade” (High Inflation if Trump wins) continues, with the 5 and 10 up 1.3 and .9% today and signaling an economic downturn if the Cult reelects their orange fascist.
  8. The bond market is pricing in a GOP sweep. The “Trump trade” expects high inflation if Trump wins. Trump tariffs are inflationary.
  9. The Trump lumpen proletariat should be sharpening their pitchforks. Instead they think of their orange god as a savior. https://itep.org/a-distributional-analysis-of-donald-trumps-tax-plan-2024/
  10. FDR was a progressive, you silly centrist.
  11. Centrists punching left is not helpful to the cause. Harris has the centrists and never-trumpers locked up. While there is no reason to alienate the Dick Cheney for Kamala voters, there is also no reason to treat Dick Cheney as an angel. I welcome his support. I laud his daughter for standing up to Trump. But no intelligent Republican can possibly defend a vote for Trump in 2024, after the Supreme Court removed any guardrails on his power as President As this election winds down, getting out the vote is crucial. The Stalinists weren’t voting for Kamala anyway, but the progressives (who are neither commie nor Stalinist) need to turn out. I urge centrists to punch right and draw attention to the lack of guardrails if Trump is elected—rather than minimizing the concerns of progressives.
  12. Here in the Clemson area, we have a lot of trees down on power lines. Friends in Highlands, NC came down the mountain today, which was a relief. The loss of cell towers in the storm is a huge problem. News can’t get in or out. No bodies in trees, but it sounds horrible up there in the southern Appalachians. Asheville is a gem of a small city and looks devastated.
  13. Oak meet wood . . .
  14. Just a reminder—‘Heads’ banks win; ‘Tails’ banks win.
  15. Bidenomics Final Exam Grades:
  16. It’s 50. Plus another 50 by the end of the year.
