What do you think it is, Sentinel?

It was your candidate. The one no one ever voted for. She was muscled onto voters as the one and only thing your party could come up with.

Because the markets arent structured to reflect the catastrophic financial damage from inflation and climate destruction that are going to happen.

"the markets are stupid"

What does that say about the American people?

It says the average American trusts Trump rather than Harris.

"he will destroy the economy"

#123 | Posted by truthhurts at 2024-11-06 12:02 PM

He better get someone to hold his beer, because that's a tall order after 4 years of Biden/Harris.

Neither Trump nor Vance are the good guys. That's fact not conjecture.

We can debate that, or not. Fact is, more people trust them than they did Harris and Co. to run the country.

Let's put it in perspective. According to Democrats, Americans chose a convicted felon and adjudicated rapist over their candidate. If that were actually true, what does that say about the Democrat's own candidate?

It seems like your logic is pretty convenient: Stocks matter under a Republican president but don't matter under a Democratic president even when the market is strong.

I said Americans in general. It's a fact that Americans had to begin using their retirements to feed themselves. When Trump was in office people had more discretionary money to spend. Now they don't. I haven't been a ---------- on this thread and I've tried to stick to actual facts that led us to this point as a country. Trump won the EC and looks like he may have won the popular vote by 5+ million. No one in their right mind would say that that many people are just plain retarded. It happened for a lot of reasons and pretending people didn't voice their concerns through voting is a grand denial.

What caused the inflation?

How does one curb said inflation?

How will tariffs, mass deportations and tax cuts for billionaires effect inflation?

What will cutting the renewable energy jobs do to inflation?

How will gutting the social safety net and the ACA effect inflation?

Cause those are -------- ONLY stated economic policies.

Watch and see

Americans also care more about the price of a Big Mac than the stock market or the job market, apparently.

Americans have also been cashing in their 401ks just to survive. Pretending that middle class Americans have money laying around to play with stocks is crazy.

And what is the root cause of these problems? Inflation as a result of the impacts of Covid and the invasion of Ukraine. In other words, -------- and Putin's actions.

Biden was incredibly effective in helping America recover from their actions. AN ECONOMY THAT IS ENVY OF THE WORLD

America has just reelected the man mostly responsible for the inflation who has promised inflationary policies.

Red state America is going to be upset to learn that Biden's investment went mostly to red counties; when --------tarts pulling those investments and the jobs poof away.

Oh well, at least the right people will be getting hurt

Even if that were true, she sucked at getting people to believe it.

"inflation is transitory"

And

"I grew up in a middle class family"

-------- polices are deeply deeply unpopular

LOL A lot of people disagree

How many women will die as a result of a nationwide abortion ban?

#49 | Posted by truthhurts at 2024-11-06 10:18 AM | Reply | Flag

Last time I checked women make up 51% of the population

Apparently they're not buying that ---- anymore. Find a new squeaky toy.

Where did the women go?

The ones that vote have been struggling to put food on the table for their family because of the economic situation. The DNC tried to quell that with drive-thru abortion and it didn't work. Both women and minorities are concerned more about their ability to feed and clothe their families than free abortion and LGBTQ hoopla. The DNC got it wrong.

Buying a home under Biden/Harris on average went up over to over $400,000
Interest rates on homes over 7%
Food and daily necessities doubled
Ukraine got more attention than Americans needs got met
Minorities now understand racial tension is driven by the politicians they USED TO SUPPORT
Unfettered illegal immigration

I can keep going but not many will listen. In fact, a lot will criticize the messenger rather than accept the reasons they lost.

At least Nerfherder is being a realist this morning.

So called men would rather have a lying criminal traitor for President than any color woman.

Women should now sell their shoes and get pregnant, because that's what backwoods men voted for.

Somebody took too many Geritols last night.

Is there anything to stop JD Vance from naming his best bud Don Jr. to be VP when the time comes?

That's really cute, considering Harris never won a primary.

What did we miss?

#26 | Posted by eberly at 2024-11-06 09:38 AM | Reply | Flag

You missed letting the people tell you who they wanted to vote for. Harris would've never been running for President had there been a primary. She was shoved on the party and they were told to like it.

Hillary was a much better candidate. Harris was a manufactured. Hillary was smart, educated and worthy of being President..

At least Hillary won her primary.

And the politicians sending them money!!!

This is what happens when the clowns want herd the average Americans into a stall - and we say no...

It's done

Trump got PA

What specifically did Trump do that made you prosper? I'm going to assume you weren't doing well when he handled the pandemic so incompetently that the entire economy cratered. But what did he do before that?

No, I was making well over $250K (as salary) a year when the plandemic hit. That was the hard part. I had a lot of my personal money tied up in the company in stock options. I was given stock options as an incentive over and above of my salary. In short, I was a partial owner. The stock options plummeted

II hope I never hear from another person who want's to over react to this ---- again

How about you tell us what you think Trump is going to do that actually helps any of that?

Trump is not interested in helping you. He only wants to help fat cats like himself. The same kind of people who closed plants and let all those jobs go overseas.

Really? Financially speaking? That's easy I prospered under Trump more than I ever did under the last three democrats.

My grandfather chartered a union and was a key component in John Julian McKeithen's tenure as governor in Louisiana. He and my Grandmother attended several gubernatorial balls.

I tried to follow his footsteps. Problem is, they disappeared on me.
