Is America better today than in 2008

[JimZiegelbauer]

A question that is asked for the fell of America ,not the media or Politicians one answer Consider that CBS’s own poll states that it is ONLY 36% of Americans who believe that the Obama administration makes the country safe. Consider that CBS left out the view of the majority of Americans or 64% say NO? This is BIASED journalism. This is reporting with a political agenda which, in this case, is to imprint in the minds of the viewers a negative image of the president. So tell me your thoughts on the last 10 years?

Those are two different questions. Is America better or is America safer? Explain.

Well, in 2008 we were mired in the most complicated and cataclysmic economic meltdown since the Great Depression.

Today, we're mired in another economic meltdown, with profound and ugly race and class anger to make things even worse.

Not a very attractive choice there. Hmm, I wonder if there is a common denominator between the two.

As a Country is America better personally financially for their family and their life, and as far as safety the all the US, the ongoing riots caused by Govenors and Mayors in the Citys and States that do not protect the citezens from riots and murders and property Damage and that Hate America,

In 2008, there was an economic meltdown caused by a Republican (Bush Jr.), that ended up being fixed by a black man named Obama. And, Obama left Trump a booming economy, where all Trump had to do was not fuck it up. Unfortunately, Trump has screwed the pooch on that one, and our economy is going back down because of the inept leadership in the Oval Office.

Are we better off now than in 2008? Just barely. But, given the propensity that Trump has for screwing things up, we will more than likely end up worse by the time the election is held.

America thinks thier is How long has Pervert Joe Biden and Drunk Nancy Pelosi been in politics? like 40 years and that is why before 2016 everything was screwed up

The answer to that question doesn't mean much with this virus ravaging our economy and liberal agitators and anarchists rioting in the streets. The foundation of our federal government is much better today than 2008. Our defense, economy, national reputation and wealth are all better. And when this pandemic is over, we'll see exactly how much better. Right now, Dems. are doing everything they can to undermine our economy. Anyone with eyes can see the Democrat vision by looking at any liberal run big city. It isn't pretty.

Trump didn't fuck up the economy. It's one of the few things he did well. You can criticize his response to this pandemic, but I have a feeling our economy would have shit the bed either way.

Just like 2008 we are yet to experience the worst of the current republican screw-up.

Yes 75 % of America Agrees with you the problem is the other 25 % is getting all the media. The important thing Americans can do is VOTE not mail n Ballots in person voting and we will continue to begreat again

COUP-Conspiring Dems trampling US citizen's Constitutional and Civil rights, facilitating the militant, murderous assault on the country, murder rates skyrocketing in major cities as Democrats wage war on the police, Democrats murdering thousands of elderly Americans, the Democrats running a dementia-suffering criminal as their Presidential nominee....no, the US is not in as good of shape as it was in 2008 BECAUSE of the results of the 2008 election

Democrats lost their minds when, after 8 years of the most criminal President in US history, they lost an election. Ever since then the Democrats have violated both Constitution and Rule of law, has undermined this govt, attempted coup after coup, have sided with foreign venues, and are facilitating the war against the US - culture, history, flag, anthem, authority, Constitution, Rule if Law....willing to destroy this country to turn it into a 3rd world communist / socialist tyrannical shit hole.

It would be a lot better if the President just officially named the Democratic Party what it is -- an ENEMY OF THE STATE and Crime Syndicate.

Are we better off than 2008?

Answer: We were until republicans fucked this economy up, again. Vote any rational adult Nov - that excludes republicans.

The left believes the 2016 election was stolen from them.
They have never, and will never consider Trump as a legitimate President.
They are determined to Transform America into something much different.

Further, they don't consider ANY ideology opposing theirs as legitimate.
Barr summed it up well this morning....

AG Barr: US facing new form of 'urban guerrilla warfare' driven by left's 'lust for power'
AG Barr: US facing new form of 'urban guerrilla warfare' driven by left's 'lust for power'

The United States is grappling with a new form of "urban guerrilla warfare" driven by the left's "lust for power," Attorney General William Barr told "Life, Liberty & Levin" on Sunday.

Discussing the ongoing Black Lives Matter riots rippling through several U.S. cities, Barr told host Mark Levin that the organization -- which has been characterized by the media as a fed-up activist group -- is comprised of "Bolsheviks" with a focus on on "some form of socialism, communism."

"They are a revolutionary group that is interested in some form of socialism, communism. They're essentially Bolsheviks. Their tactics are fascistic," he said.

Sadly, they are likely to succeed since they have managed to manipulate any opposition into a corner where they shiver with fear and refuse to resist.
Like naive fools, we even allow them seats in our Congress and they are gaining influence in our laws at an alarming rate.

My pay is higher, I never got laid off as essential, my neighborhood is peaceful, in fact if I avoid the MSM, all is fine. But I don't live in a blue shithole.
It is in no interest from my perspective to ever vote DFL.

Most of America feels this way. Which is why the Left is winning.
"I hear about it, but it's not immediately affecting me right now, so as far as I'm concerned, it's not my problem"

Most will be utterly taken by surprise when they arrive at their door step.

Most of the silent majority feels this way and I wouldn't be making predictions either way. Or have you never learned from 2016?

No need to make predictions.....
Go ahead and point out the massive resistance SO FAR ????

Russia has a 'Silent Majority"
China has a "silent Majority"

ALL cruel authoritarians have a 'Silent Majority"

AG Barr says new "URBAN" guerilla warfare
The keyword is Urban, antifa and blm are destroying urban areas being violent rioting and looting because they have been encouraged and protected by the cities Democrat Politicians. Those politicians have encouraged the rioting and looting and restrained their police forces from stopping it.

26% of guns in american households were purchased in the last 2 months...grasp that reality, you cant find ammunition anywhere around me, they are out of stock online for all the popular calibres

Antifa and BLM would make a very huge unforgiving error going outside their protected zone.

American isnt scared, america is sitting watching and ready if they come knocking on their door and on their property.

The resistance may come election day. The rest of us are working and have no time to carry signs and yell at people. Either way, my area will still remain quiet and peaceful. Only authoritarians I see are Democrats.
