This is the last time I will provide a link for you without you trying at least 3 times to answer the question for yourself. If a 5-year old is capable of doing it, so you are you.

"... Even more striking is how America has outperformed its peers among the mature economies. In 1990 America accounted for about two-fifths of the overall GDP of the G7 group of advanced countries; today it is up to about half (see chart)."

This all goes back to the lies of economic statistics. For example, CA GDP in 2000 was $1.2T. Now, it is $3.9T. That is a 3x increase or a growth rate of over 5% per year over this time and population only grew from 34M to 39M, so per capita the increase was from $34K to $100K.

Now, if you know anyone from CA, they will tell you that the schools were better in 2000, the roads were better in 2000, there was way less homeless people in 2000 - so, quality of life was WAY BETTER in 2000.

Now, homes are unaffordable and you must pay an extra $20k/year to send your kid to private school.

Yet, in our Western concept, this is an improvement and advancement.

Now, Europe is a special case of self-imposed destruction due to energy policies and adopting socialist work policies that frankly make them non-competitive in the world. Their entire 'new economy' was based on selling old world luxury goods to rich Chinese. Now that China has slowed, their economies have predictably collapsed.

Only according to Democrat elected members of Congress. I believe most Democrats know this will not happen.

"Is there any wonder why the Trump campaign seems to be so vigorously trying to walk back the comments at the MSG Trump rally?
#12 | POSTED BY LAMPLIGHTER"

Actually, I don't see that occurring. The only ones I see even talking about it are the Kamala dead-enders looking at their internal polls and realizing that the 'Hitler card' and 'sex assault from 3 decades prior card' didn't work so they are resorting to this. If you are so thin skinned that this is going to cause you to flip your vote, you were never going to vote for Trump in the first place.

"#61 | Posted by BellRinger"

Par for the course for Democrats. These are the same people that were outraged when Trump calls Haiti a -------- country but then routinely do the same to red states in the US.

"So, a woman dating a man seems to be an issue for your current alias?
#14 | Posted by LampLighter"

No, everyone already knows she was the 3rd wheel in a Throuple with Montel Williams.

What we are talking about now is the sex tape they made together dropping. This has at least the credibility of the Trump hooker pee tape from 2016 and rumor is that it is being shopped now to drop before the election.

You should be more worried about the Kamala/Montell Williams sex tape dropping before the election than this.

"Donald Trump has a serious Puerto Rico problem -- in Pennsylvania. Many Puerto Rican voters in the state are furious about racist and demeaning comments delivered at a Trump rally.

Sure they are. If any Democrats actually believes your own --------, hope over to Polymarket and triple your money. But, you won't. And you won't because even the Kamala dead-enders know what is coming.

""He's Mexican making a Mexican joke" -- Internet defends George Lopez's Mexicans speech after criticizing Tony Hinchcliffe's Puerto Rico joke"

Yeah, that is not the reason. The reason is that liberals have fake outrage at things done at the Trump rally while Trump supporters don't care. It is exactly the same how liberals will yell at white people for cultural appropriation while they bring out Beyonce in a full blonde wig and say she is beautiful.

"Lopez is of Mexican descent. I tend to cut people who joke about their own self, family, culture some slack.
#16 | Posted by Gal_Tuesday at 2024-10-28 09:33 AM"

Yeah, really punching up when a multi-millionaire makes fun of the poor Mexicans stealing.

As I said, all the Democrats have left is identity politics and fake outrage.

"whatabout whatabout!
Defend that trump vote, deadman.
#21 | Posted by Alexandrite"

It is not whataboutism when I don't care and I am not offended by the action. However, this does work perfectly on you as you do have your panties in a bunch in feigned outrage over what was said at the Trump rally while ignoring your own Kamala rally calling Mexicans thieves.

"Theres a huge difference between telling racist jokes at a roast and telling them at a presidential rally.
#18 | Posted by Alexandrite"

So you are saying it is not appropriate for George Lopez to say that Mexicans are thieves at a Kamala rally?

Nah. That is what woke people find comedy to be - which is why comedy has basically died.

"Seems like bezos knows which direction this nation is headed.
#6 | Posted by ClownShack"

Bezos is smart. He knows the WaPo is a losing business - and while a pull back to the center may be good for its credibility, I highly doubt you will get conservatives subscribers back regardless. So, I think the most logical conclusion is that he took out a huge insurance policy and assumed the progressives will burn it down after Kamala loses and they blame the WaPo rather than their horrible candidate or lack of policies people actually want.

Wow, seems liberals can only tolerate an echo chamber or safe space. Who knew?

"Unhinged Leftist"

Redundant headline.

There are 2 types of polls - those that are meant to show the current public opinion and those that are meant to help form public opinion. The Forming Polls were the nonsense ones released right after Kamala became the candidate in which over the course of 3 days she changed from a moronic boat anchor weighing down Biden's election chance to the 2nd coming of Barak Obama.

The problem is that Liberals increasingly have trouble being able to differentiate between the 2 types of polls.

"Tony just killed his career.
#3 | Posted by Alexandrite"

LOL. Clearly, you don't know who Tony is. This is not even in the top 1000 things he said that were offensive. Additionally, it is not even an original joke. Originally, it was used with Ireland as the punchline.

"Harris had a tow hall last week that i haven't watched and Trump went on Rogan which I haven't watched. Need to go through it.
#27 | Posted by BellRinger"

Honest question for you, how would either of those events change how you would vote? You feel there is something you don't yet know about Trump? You think Kamala will announce a new policy that makes your forget the last 4 years? Seriously.

"As for me, I will vote in person on Election Day because it is the most secure way of voting.
#25 | Posted by BellRinger"

As you have stated that you are not voting for Trump, I would encourage you to donate your ballot to the locally Democrat run school board to be repurposed into a sanitary napkin for the boys' bathroom - at least then it would serve a purpose other than destroying the nation.

"Having said that, when I'm looking at the behavior of the 2 campaigns what I see is the Harris campaign looking desperate and the Trump campaign looking confident and looking like they are having fun.
#23 | Posted by BellRinger"

I imagine based on the internal polls (which directly impact the betting markets), Trump is expected to win by a few % along with all the swing states. The main component of election anxiety for the Trump supporters is how much will the Democrats cheat in this election. Straight up, Trump blow out. If it takes 14 days to count and we have burst pipes at the counting stations, the confidence in Trump winning plummets.

"So, you got nothing to substantiate your comment.
#21 | Posted by LampLighter"

Well, other than the space-time continuum. Of course, you can go ahead and prove that someone has invented a time machine which allows events to take place out of their historical timeline, but I put that challenge to you. I am not saying that such a time machine is not possible (although most theories state time only moves in one direction), but I just don't know of the existence of any such machine.

"That's a bold statement

#18 | Posted by LampLighter"

The space-time continuum?

"Current polling doesn't reflect The Dobbs Effect."

Well, considering 2022 included the Dobbs decision and polls were accurate, this seems like and incorrect statement to make.

"Every vote since Dobbs has eviscerated the polling."

Then how do you explain 2022 polling accuracy?

"And most recently, OH06, a Trump +29 district, which Rs won, but only by 8-9 points."

I believe it is more likely to see a Trump +29 district WHEN TRUMP IS ON THE BALLOT. You see, there seems to be a big difference between Trump supporters and GOP supporters. Unlike the lockstep Dems, Trump voters are just as likely to be disgusted by a RINO as a Dem.

"And nowadays, outlets make more money if they pretend the race is closer than it actually is.
#16 | Posted by Danforth"

I agree with you on that, but the outcome predicted is very different.

"#11 | Posted by AMERICANUNITY"

Kamala is down by 31.8% in the betting markets. Basically, Dems are counting on the polls being 100% accurate this cycle or they will lose both the EC and popular vote.

Yer up.

You were able to figure out the meaning of the comment all on your own. I bet if you tried, you could come up with reasons all on your own too. I must treat you like a 5 year old - please try 3 times yourself before you ask me for help.
