    They'll magically be able to convince themselves that the economy is good now. Because Republican in White House. It is what it is.

    I mean, it almost certainly is going to with or without Trump. Maybe Kamala shouldn't have been in the driver's seat, but Trump is pretty much the last one I'd pick to handle the current state of the world. Obviously hope I'm wrong.

    I don't necessary disagree with any of this, though you certainly take a lot of liberties. But then how a moderate can turn around and convince themselves that Trump is "in touch" is way beyond me. There's a double standard for Democrat and Republic candidates, and I suspect that's not likely to go away.

    Is immamac telling us all to quit our jobs in retaliation?
  5. aggie08
    I don't disagree with any of this. But here we are.

    So tell Trump his tie makes him look thin, and he'll do whatever you ask without upsetting his base.

    I was making a joke. I don't automatically think high stock market equals great economy. Also, paywalled. But, the fact is, everyone (who was being honest) knew that inflation was inevitable after 2020, ours is at least low by other first world country standards, and most believe that Trump's plans will make it significantly worse. But none of that matters, of course. Because people generally can't connect the dots like that. I don't blame people for feeling economic pain, blaming whoever is in power, and voting accordingly. It's what we do. You know damn well the GOP will be touting the same market and same current inflation rate as soon as they're able to.

    And almost unanimously economists favorite Harris's plan over Trump's. That his is almost guaranteed to be inflationary. How do you convince people who have no desire to learn or listen to experts? If you have the answer, the Democratic party would certainly love to know.

    Cool. I've never given anyone a neg rep to anyone in any iteration of the site. But you specifically called me out. Just curious what I did to personally aggrieve you.

    Do you think we'd still be saying this if people viewed the economy as good? I don't know, maybe.
  11. aggie08
    How and why?
  12. aggie08
    Okay, that's not bad.

    After yesterday? As much as he damn well pleases, whenever he damn well pleases. Ain't no one with the balls or political capital to stand up to him.

    Someone who talks like this reprimanding others for calling him a name. That is some peak-level grievance. If your 401k and investment accounts haven't made you a ton of money over the past 4 years, that's a you problem at this point.

    And what the fuck have you all been calling us, not just on a message board, but from the highest levels of government? The amount of hypocrisy that you guys are able to conveniently and completely dismiss is fucking staggering.

    Dude. This is some pretty sad wish-casting, even for this place. People. Do. Not. Care. He'll just be ending the "political witch-hunts."

    'A story about a pathetic man's resounding victory' just doesn't have quite the same ring to it.

    Sadly, this. Not even blaming Trump when China does. But he's about the last person I'd want to tackle it.

    It's already been happening, but the migration to more culturally aligned states is going to rapidly increase. It's not a question I want to think about right now, but I'm betting it fucks the Electoral College for Dems even harder, because of course it will.
  20. aggie08
    Not that I ever put much faith in this round of polls, but safe to say we should all be done with them now. What's the point if they completely miss a tonal shift like this? It's one thing to miss on Trump, but damn near everyone?
  21. aggie08
    Sweet. Glad to see that the stock market being up matters again. I don't imagine we'll have to wait long to see the GOP reminding us that our inflation is actually pretty low compared to the rest of the world.

    It was supposed to be celebratory Chili's. Don't subject yourself to sulking in a fucking Chili's. Go do something fun, focus on yourself family, and be temporarily thankful that you probably aren't in a demographic that this will affect the most.
  23. aggie08
    As others have said, this is pretty hypocritical, yes? I don't think you want to do a comparison between what Trump said about Kamala and her supporters and what she said about him and his during this campaign. Why is it that Republicans--especially since Trump--can essentially say the most heinous things imaginable with no repercussions, but one insult by a Democrat and it's "they need to tone down the rhetoric! Stop calling us names!" I honestly don't have a good answer for this. Maybe you do.

    Honest question: what do you think his cabinet and appointed positions will look?
  25. aggie08
    Meh. The people who follow and understand this kind of political grandstanding aren't the ones that the campaign needed to reach. Obviously Trump realized that and knew that sabotaging the bill was to his benefit. He bragged about it himself. It wasn't passed, Dems are in the White House, and the border is still bad. That's as far as the thought process goes.
