The gains we are seeing now is a result of businesses banking on Trump being elected and the regulation cuts that will follow. The killing of Chevron by SCOTUS also has something to do with it.....But I repeat myself.

We are far better off today than four years ago.
The people say we are going in the wrong direction, not because of the economy, but because of our leadership and our failed parties.

Then you have not done well the last four years because you failed no other reason.

I didn't say I'm hurting... I said I don't have as much in savings as I did three years ago... nothing has changed except the president and the economic and energy policies....

if you are blowing through your savings, it means you are hurting.
But yes, the problem is nothing has changed but the POTUS.
Lots has changed for me since then, the wife and I are making 94k more than we did in 2020, our savings is far higher and our investments are through the roof.
Get off your ass and do something to better your situation. Nothing should stay the same over a 4 year period

Either you are doing poorer today, the same, or better than 2020.
If you are not doing as well, that is on you, because many of us are doing much better.

Trump was actually the worst jobs president since Herbert Hoover, and was responsible for two-thirds of the massive pandemic stimulus that caused inflation.

Republicans Kick Off Convention Pushing Myth Of Trump’s ‘Best Ever’ Economy
Trump was actually the worst jobs president since Herbert Hoover, and was responsible for two-thirds of the massive pandemic stimulus that caused inflation.www.huffpost.com
The talking points began within months of Democrat Joe Biden moving into the White House — and remain as untrue now as they were then.
But even discounting the pandemic year, Trump’s economy had lower GDP growth and fewer new jobs in his first three years in office than predecessor Barack Obama’s final three years. Republicans, including Trump, disparaged those years as an economic disaster.
On inflation, many economists believe that the high inflation rates of 2022 and 2023 — and subsequent high interest rates by the Federal Reserve — were caused by the $5.7 trillion in COVID stimulus spending designed to keep the economy from collapsing into depression. If they are correct, it follows that two-thirds of the responsibility for inflation logically belongs to Trump, under whose watch two-thirds of the spending took place.
And while it’s true gasoline prices collapsed in Trump’s final year, that was because so many Americans lost their jobs in 2020 and so many businesses had closed that the demand for gas plummeted. Prior to the pandemic, gasoline prices were on average higher in 2017, 2018 and 2019 than they were in Obama’s final year, 2016.
While inflation is falling and manufacturing is booming under President Biden, economists are warning that a second Trump term will set off an ‘inflation bomb’ and raise middle class families’ costs by $2,600 a year
Don't believe this because it came from the Huffington Post? Basically the same thing Bill Maher, Chris Christie, Nikki and Ron D said.

The typical American household must spend an additional $11,434 annually just to maintain the same standard of living they enjoyed in January of 2021, right before inflation soared to 40-year highs, according to a recent analysis of government data.

We must engage in preventing Trump from having another shot at hurting the economy.

Lower the corporate rate rate from 21% to 15%.
Both will cause inflation and maga will justify it somehow if he is elected.

Everything costs more is all I'm saying... the lower on the class scale you are the harder it is to get by... now you can be too smart by half but this is going to cost Biden the election.... even if things get a bit better the people know what the lefts agenda is and they don't want it.... they can't afford it...

$250 a Week, for ONE guy.
That's a load of crock.
Why do you LIE?
Share your shopping list for a week and PROVE it.
Here is mine for me and the wife:
2 Dozen Eggs.....longer than a week....but let's use 2 Dozen. Costco Price $5
Loaf of Bread.... $5.....this is high.
Sandwich meats...... $30
Condiments....which I already have, but let's buy more...... $10
Bacon.....$10
Milk...$10....2 gallons
Butter, Oils..... $10
Box or 2 of Cereal ..... $10
Dinner Meats...... Chicken, Pork Chops, Steak. All this for $50
Desserts....Ice Cream.... $10
Fruits.....$20
Veggies....$20. for salads including the dressing.
Potatoes....$10
That's $200.....for 2 Adults, which will probably last 2 weeks.
How are you, for just ONE, spending $250 Per Week for Groceries?
IF you have tenants on Rentals, a retirement or a job, or BOTH, SS.
How are you dipping into your savings every month?
