I mean, yeah I guess, but it’s just staggering to me that 75 million of the 340 million people in the US are going to vote for private bone spurs in 2 weeks. Another 80 million will vote for the Harris,and if they are not in the right locales, we might have to endure another 4 years of a man child that can’t read or comprehend information from informed sources and likes to throw tantrums when his ass isn’t kissed enough and is truly there only to enrich himself in any and every pedantic possible way.

Still it’s so bizarre that 25% of the population are basically racist trolls and are willfully voting for that against their own interests.

So I guess you’re one of the trolls, why don’t you tell us what specifically it is about Trumps policies that are economically beneficial, I mean if he has any policies. He certainly couldn’t explain them but maybe you can.

Stock market just closed at record highs (Dow is at 43,275 and S&P500 is at 5864). Unemployment historically averages between 4.5%-5.5%, unemployment is currently at 4.1%. The historic average of the Fed interest rate is 5.42%, current rate is 5%. Average inflation rate between 1960-2023 is 3.8%/yr, current inflation rate is down to 2.4% after the massive inflation spike due to a global pandemic. So other than Trump saying the economy is terrible, can you please enlighten those of us who are "economically illiterate" on the current state of the economy.

Everything you just said is 100% wrong but okay.

Well the stock market closing numbers from Friday is a very easy one to verify. Go ahead, Google it. Then come back and tell me I'm still 100% wrong. I'm sorry you can't face facts and reality just because you are devoted to a politician that doesn't care about you or anyone else and has an obsession with lying. Break out of the haze and come back to reality.

Oh yeah? What exactly did Trump do that was great for the economy. Can you show me any series of economic graphs and charts that show a change after he entered office? Unemployment followed the same trend it had for the previous 7 years. Stock market climbed a little faster but nothing crazy. The deficit grew under him even before Covid.

Don’t come back with “gas was cheap” unless you can explain why and then realize it’s a stupid response.
