Democrat Soul Searching Thread

[Marener]

LOL. You guys have been telling for a couple of years now that the economy was just fine. So, shouldn't Harris have won due to the great economy?

The economy is actually doing quite well. It's growing. Unemployment is very low. Wages are growing nicely. That doesn't change the fact that people felt inflation and are still quite mad about it.

But it could have been a lot worse. Hell, you should see the rest of the developed world economies.

You guys have been telling us for a couple of years we are in a recession. That was a lie.

It was a relatively uniform and broad based shift to the right. The economy is the only thing they truly explains it.

I doubt the border crisis had nearly as much to do with it as it has affected far fewer people relatively.

I disagree. In central Missouri where I live, I have seen fake Amazon drivers scoping out people's houses at 6 in the morning. All of south american descent. This is no exaggeration. People on local community pages have had their homes and cars broke into and caught on cameras. Cars have fake tags. Cops can't find them. Not to mention that these criminals are killing young American women in the streets. This invasion is effecting all of us.

 

[Independent thinker]

I don't vote for lies.

Neither do Americans, which is why Trump won every single swing state. They were tired of the left's lies.

 

[Marener]

I don't call 26% inflation under Biden normal. Can you name another president in history who had 26% inflation. OK, I'll give you Jimmy Carter.

I call 2.4% inflation normal which is what we are currently experiencing.

It didn't matter who won the 2020 election, we were going to experience that inflation no matter what.

 

[Independent thinker]

Crime went up during 2020 when Trump was president, not that you'd ever think of blaming him. Not sure what the president has to do with crime.

I was totally unaffected by the "border crisis" and I'm pretty sure most people are the same. Were you?

The democratic party as a whole is responisble for rampant crime. That includes the border invasion and woke policies.

Blaming all that crime on the border crisis doesn't seem illogical. Property crimes skyrocketed in 2020 when there was no crisis.

You clearly are in a state of mind that you simply look for any possible way to blame dems for anything.

I'm paying at least 40% more for groceries, fuel, utilities since Biden took office. Am I the only one?

LOL. And yet you say Trump won because of the economy. You need to pick one answer and stick with it.

I have zero confidence, trust or respect for this incoming corrupt government you've hoisted upon us. This will be a disaster.

 

[Oddball]

We know why Trump won. He, being the expert con man that he is, convinced you that the underpinning of our economy, namely neoliberalism can produce a new Golden Age for ordinary people. Since neoliberalism was introduced as our economic model by Ronald Reagan it has only produced the decline of the middle class and left poor people in the dust. Cause that's what it's designed to do. Wealth has not trickled down on the great unwashed and it never will.

And there we have it....The answer to the OP.

No introspection...Not a single shred of the notion that you freaks are dour, puerile, narcissistic snobs.

It's everyone else -THEMTHEMTHEM!!- being too ******* stupid/greedy/hateful to recognize how benevolent and awesome that you are.

FU

40% is probably an overestimate.

How much have your wages increased?

Inflation would have gone up some but not 26%. It was democrats response to Covid, adding money to the national debt, and foreign policy failures which threw gasoline on the inflation fire.

I haven't contradicted myself. Perhaps the topic is just a little too complicated for the typical Trump voter.

That wasn't my question

Ummmmmmmmmmmmm, this is the democratic soul searching thread where you were asked if you did any sould searching as to why Trump cleaned up. You refuse to do any sould searching.

See? Nothing has changed.

Again, you blame the Dems for the COVID response but ignore Republicans bear the same responsibility. They all voted for adding money to the national debt too.

It's just so hypocritical that you attack dems for never taking responsibility but here you refuse to acknowledge any responsibility for Republicans or Trump.

 

[SmokeALib]

Incorrect. There was a crisis in 2020.
There was a crisis through Obama and Trump. Dems killed everything Trump was trying to do to curb the invasion.

Reagan’s economic theory was not “trickle down” .
I know what you’ve told to believe.
