Is The Democrat Plan To Damage The Economy Working?

[Ray From Cleveland]

One of the big policies they had was the strip joints and all night bars. One time, I had this scary-ass biker dude (white) pass out in my gangway. Called the cops. Took their sweet time getting there. "Hey, are you the one who called the cops on me", he blurted out. "Dude, I didn't know if you were injured or needed medical attention". He wandered north and exclaimed "Oh, That's Roosevelt Road! Now I know where I'm at!!!"

Another occassion, a girl vanished at one of these bars. They found her body stuffed into a garage a couple months later. (It was winter, so she didn't go ripe.)

Oh, so it went downhill because people got drunk at bars and passed out in the street, or one murder? You have to be kidding me.

We had an area like that in Cleveland. It was called the Flats, and it grew nationwide popularity. People came from all over to go to the flats. It would still be here today if not for the bars that charged next to nothing for drinks which drew in the low income punks that destroyed it. When you needed some money to be entertained in the flats, it was a great place to go.

Naw, man, I get the people who went to YouTube, thought they knew where they were doing, and after six months of getting no callbacks, decided to find someone who knew what they were doing. A couple people actually went to one of my competitors, who charged a lot more money and did a much worse job. Then after I did them, they actually got interviews and jobs. Imagine that.

It's kind of like saying you can learn how to play the guitar on YouTube, but it's not going to turn you into Eric Clapton or David Gilmour.

On the contrary. Once you learn the rudiments of guitar, you can become a very accomplished musician just off of Youtube. Facebook is loaded with children as young as 10 playing stuff like Eddy Van Halen solos thanks to Youtube. I'm just thankful that when I was teaching, there was no Youtube around at the time.

So tell me what you do that anybody else can't explain on a video. Oh, I'm sure there are people who make videos that are not very good, just like videos I've seen of other guitarists, but you get somebody that knows what they're doing, it's a piece of cake.

Okay, guy, let's look at that. Let's look at poverty in America.

It all depends on what one considers poverty. On a national scale, people in those areas are considered poor. However when you consider their cost of living, they're not doing too badly. In any case, I believe the only way to save this country is to have two instead. You Democrats ruin every place you go. You ruined my suburb, the metro area I was born into, the other suburb I grew up in, all gone now. While there is no way to save the entire country, if we could save half of it, it's better than nothing.

Why do we need a "World Police"? This isn't 1940, nobody is going to go blitzkreiging across someone else's borders. We have a bloated military budget and we have kids going to be hungry at night... The fact is, we got taken down by a virus, without a single shot being fired....

We are the world police because we do have the strongest military in the world, and we are also the leader of the free world. In order to keep other countries free, we are obligated to come to their rescue if invaded.

If we don't do that, and aggressive nations like China, Russia, North Korea take over those free countries, we start losing ground in the event we do have another world war. Eventually, it will be us against the rest of the world because there will be no other free countries around to side up with.

Actually, it has to do with you be so poor with your money you couldn't move out of the slum. I used to live in a town called Cicero... It started turning into, well, not a slum, but much poorer when the Polish and Italian families started moving out and the Hispanic families started moving in.

You know what I did? I sold my house and I moved.... Mostly to be closer to work, but also because I really just didn't want to live in Cicero anymore.

Actually because you are a racist. Oh, those brown people are moving in so I better run! Well, that's what happened here to only with the blacks. All those leftist neighbors of mine that used to preach the word of inclusion were just like you, the first to run and hide.

I live here because this is where my business is. I need to be here. Plus the fact my elderly parents live here, the friends I grew up with, and other family members are here. I'm not selling out because all my tenants are great people, and I may consider that down the road if they ever leave.

I have the option of leaving, but who knows if the Democrats will target the new area I move into for destruction, just like they targeted this area years ago.

It doesn't matter what you say, it matters what the people you vote for DO. Trump hasn't cut any spending. IN fact, he's spent at a level Obama would have LOVED to have spent at. Obama had a hard time getting a Trillion in Stimulus over three years. Trump's already spent 3 TRILLION on Stimulus just this year.... He's wasted a shitload of money on toys the Pentagon doesn't need.

Ears never faced anything like this. No President in our lifetime has. He used the recession as a reason to spend on all his pet projects like taking care of his union people in the auto industry and public schools.

Unless you have a super majority, you can't get any budget passed. Trump wanted to give us on the right what he promised, but also had to continue funding for the left as well.

Again, the economy in the 1990's was not based on everyone getting an AOL disc in the mail.

The internet was booming. People were becoming millionaires overnight. Tens of thousands of Americans were starting their own web sites and businesses. That's not to mention the keen interest in cell phones which also started to grow. Computers and programs flying off the shelves.

No, not even close to the same... They determined that someone with your "I'm totally fine/I'm on death's door, please give me welfare" Syndrome can't operate a truck safely because other people with that syndrome had crashes that could have been avoided.

And yet I spent 30 years behind the wheel of big rigs without one accident in my name, one point against my license, and not one point on my CSA 2010. No, what happened is a bunch of board bureaucrats decided to get off their ass and do something destructive to Americans and the transportation industry.

Actually, I've done it twice in my career... The first time when I left the military, when I realized I wasn't going to be able to do the really physical stuff in my 40's, I made sure I got skills and additional education to do something else (Procurement/Logistics) in the civilian world. The Second Time when I built up a business because at some point, I wasn't going to want to punch a clock for the rest of my life.

First off, most people in the military stay for a while and leave. That's not a career change. That's like me saying I changed careers by leaving the medical field and getting into freight. It's still driving. It wasn't a career. I left to start a career in truck driving. Secondly, by your own admission, you never had a real second career. You went to school, got out, and when you found you couldn't get along with anybody, decided to leave, but you didn't change careers.

I did several different kinds of work in my life. General labor, bricklayers apprentice, music instructor, medical equipment driver, medical equipment repair technician, truck driver, landlord. However truck driving is my only real career.

Now if you told me you were in HVAC, remodeler, electrician or plumber and left to do what you dld, that's a career change. Very few people do that. You and I both chose a field of work and that's all we did.

So we should all pay for your short-sightedness? It seems you have no empathy for poor black people, who have it a LOT worse than you do, but you expect everyone to feel sorry for you.

I don't expect any such thing. When did I ever say people should feel sorry for me? I'm doing just fine. And nothing we've talked about had to do anything with race. Like always, you insert it into every conversation whenever possible.

I'm not doing well because of my race, I'm doing well because I planned ahead, even if something like this would happen. There isn't a minority in this country that couldn't have did what I did. We all went to school, we all got jobs, we all had the opportunity to invest, we all could have planned ahead. Tell me, what do I have that any other minority couldn't have?

Freedom my ass....dude get off your high horse. You are been hijacked by politicians and taken advantage by billionaires....We have crimes, epidemic, drug epidemic, unrest everywhere, hate everywhere, poor health system, poor politics, poor leadership....we burning all bridges with the allies and you are talking about leading the free world? where how? Country are changing sides as we speak, also China, Russia, Turkey are replacing the US in various places.

But they will not overpower us partly thanks to Trump for rebuilding the military. Our allies haven't departed from the US. If so, name one. Trust me, if an aggressive country would ever try to takeover a waker free country, the US will be there with guns drawn and the billions of dollars of equipment we have.

 

[JoeB131]

You've been saying the economy was going in the shitter for three years before the virus hit. Everybody except leftists understand the economy is not the fault of Trump, but China.

Actually, I said it was going into the shitter because it was going into the shitter.

Has just as much to do with Trump's trade war and a lot of companies were over-leveraged.

Correct, their plan to destroy the economy is working. However I don't think it will usher in Creepy Joe, especially after we've seen the emails of the corruption between him and his son.

Nobody but the right wing crazies actually believe those emails are real.

Biden might be the first Democrat to win WHITE PEOPLE since LBJ. That's how badly Trump is doing in the polls right now.

When you needed some money to be entertained in the flats, it was a great place to go.

Cicero was a great place to go, too, when it had the strippers and the all night bars. It just wasn't a fun place to live.

That and as I said, the place was notoriously corrupt.

Sure.. I'm sure you think that you learn all sorts of good stuff from "YouTube", when you aren't spying on the neighbors, Gladys.

So tell me what you do that anybody else can't explain on a video.

Well, to start with, the most common mistake I see, is people take their job descriptions they got from HR and plug them into their resumes. It amazes me every time I see it. They don't even bother changing the verb forms or taking out the weasel words.

It all depends on what one considers poverty.

I don't have to... LOOK AT THE FUCKING MAP. If we divided the country RIGHT NOW between Red States and Blue States, the RED States would be a fucking third world country.

 

[Ray From Cleveland]

Sure.. I'm sure you think that you learn all sorts of good stuff from "YouTube", when you aren't spying on the neighbors, Gladys.

You do learn quite a bit from Youtube. In fact I used it just last week. I was trying to inflate a totally flat tire on a cart I had, but that normally requires two people: one to press the tire to stop the air from seeping out of the rim, and another to apply the air. Some guy had a neat trick of using electrical tie wraps and joining them together to push that tire in. Worked great. I also had a clothes washer that needed a door switch for one of my apartments. I called somebody who gave me an estimate of $200.00. So I copied the model number down, and somebody posted a video of that exact model on how to do it. The switch cost me less than 20 bucks, and I saved myself $180.00.

Well, to start with, the most common mistake I see, is people take their job descriptions they got from HR and plug them into their resumes. It amazes me every time I see it. They don't even bother changing the verb forms or taking out the weasel words.

And that can't be explained on a video?

I don't have to... LOOK AT THE FUCKING MAP. If we divided the country RIGHT NOW between Red States and Blue States, the RED States would be a fucking third world country.

Not at all. Many of those people probably live better than you do. Your house cost you what in Chicago......about 700K? A similar house down there would run you less than 200K. If you really want to see cost of living differences, go to HGTV and dig up videos of Montana. What you pay for a one bedroom home in downtown commie cities, you get a ski lodge in Montana with plenty of land.

You were saying that while the economy was booming. You were wrong then and you're wrong now. Until the virus we had a million and a half jobs more than Americans to do them. Our market broke records all the time. Consumer confidence at it's highest level in many years. It wasn't until the Chinese invasion took place where things reversed.

Nobody but the right wing crazies actually believe those emails are real.

Biden might be the first Democrat to win WHITE PEOPLE since LBJ. That's how badly Trump is doing in the polls right now.

The emails need to be authenticated and being looked at by the Republicans in the Senate. However it's more than emails, it's pictures of Hunter drugged up and porn parties. Creepy Joe's aid stated no such meeting was ever scheduled and no such meeting took place. Creepy Joe recently stated he "may" have met the Burisma executive on an "unofficial" meeting.

It's not looking very good right now.

Honestly, if you are that mechanically inept, YouTube doesn't help.

And that can't be explained on a video?

Apparently not, given what I see every day.

You were saying that while the economy was booming.

Except it wasn't. Low GDP growth, low wage growth...

Not at all. Many of those people probably live better than you do. Your house cost you what in Chicago......about 700K?

Nowhere near...

Except no one has actually SEEN those pictures. The pictures in the post are less racy than most vacation photos...

This if a fake scandal, because that was the kind of fake scandal Trump had in 2016.

 

[Ray From Cleveland]

Apparently not, given what I see every day.

And yet you probably never researched it. You (like me) depend on people who are just willing to pay money to avoid doing work they'd rather not do. However when times get tough, they will be more conservative with their money, especially since a Biden economy will come crashing down.

Except it wasn't. Low GDP growth, low wage growth...

And we broke a new record for median household income. Imagine that!

Except no one has actually SEEN those pictures. The pictures in the post are less racy than most vacation photos...

Those pictures are all over Facebook now. Would you like me to post them?

Honestly, if you are that mechanically inept, YouTube doesn't help.

Sure it helps, greatly. That's how I saved myself a couple hundred bucks. Those videos are how I learned how to clean out the charging port on my iPhone X safely. Others would have turned it in and paid the $75.00 for a remanufactured used phone. It's how I repaired my dishwasher in my own home.

Face it Joe, your days are numbered. If people get more energetic, strive to save money, they too will be going to Youtube to do the very same job you do now for them. You can't escape technology.

Lot of countries in Africa, Asia and south america are running to China...and China has been heavily investing in those country. The take over has been happening but trump stupidity is making it happen fast.
Dude the US creates a mess wherever it gets involved...Afghanistan, Iraq, Palestinian cause, Yemen, Lybia and Syria.

Actually, I looked at one or two videos... and they were laughable...

The economy is already a fucking disaster with Trump. Here's the reality- Republicans bring us RECESSIONS. The last Republican who didn't have a recession on his watch was CALVIN COOLIDGE, and that's only because the Great Depression broke out a year after he left on Hoover's watch.

Every other Republican in the last 100 years has had at least ONE recession.

So once again, a Democrat will come in, clean up the Republican's mess. Then the REpublicans will come back, and get just enough stupid white people to vote against their own economic interests and do it again.

Unless we dummy up and send the GOP to the political hinterlands for good this time.

And we broke a new record for median household income. Imagine that!

Again, Trump will be the first president to post a NET JOBS LOSS since Hoover.

Those pictures are all over Facebook now. Would you like me to post them?

Facebook is deleting them as fake news... There probably as fake as the emails.

Face it Joe, your days are numbered. If people get more energetic, strive to save money, they too will be going to Youtube to do the very same job you do now for them. You can't escape technology.

LIke I said, guy, I've seen the YouTube resumes... YouTube can't teach you how to structure a sentence, or what keywords to use... YOU might learn formating....

My business is shooting back up as companies are opening up again after the lockdowns... all we need to do is get rid of trump and get the economy booming.

 

[JoeB131]

Hey, Ray, check it out...if you listened to this woman you'd never get a call back.

Nope. What's going to happen is first off, the market will crash. I know I'm getting some of my money out of there, and I suggest you do the same if you have any investments. I suspect many people will be packing their bags and heading for higher grounds as well. If you are 59 1/2, you can withdraw from your IRA with no penalty.

gain, Trump will be the first president to post a NET JOBS LOSS since Hoover.

Trump will be the first President to have to deal with something like this in over 100 years. This virus is the only reason for our economy, just like Europe, just like any place else.

LIke I said, guy, I've seen the YouTube resumes... YouTube can't teach you how to structure a sentence, or what keywords to use... YOU might learn formating....

All Biden will do is destroy the county. Higher taxes for our job creators, higher prices with a national minimum wage of $15.00, when that causes a domino effect, more companies leaving the US or investing in automation, re-opening the border will bring our wages down on any remaining jobs, and invite more Covid into the country, higher capital gains taxes will destroy our market, Commie Care fines taking more money out of the pockets of people that need money the most, our fuel prices doubling or more because of strict regulations on fracking, or stopping fracking altogether as Harris stated in an interview, destroy now safe and nice middle-class suburbs resulting in hundreds of billions of dollars in lost property value, and what will the MSM do for four years? Blame Trump for it.

It will continue to get worse until the 2022 elections when people get rid of the Democrat Congress. But until we Republicans can get another President as great as Trump, all they will be able to do is stop the decay, not reverse it.

 

[Ray From Cleveland]

Hey, Ray, check it out...if you listened to this woman you'd never get a call back.

Ah, so you found one that you disagree with. I see you didn't go far because that was the fourth one on the list. But if you scrolled further down the page, you'd find well over 100 videos of resume writing and services that provide resume services. I stopped when I got around 100 because I don't have time to count each and every one, but I'd be willing to bet there are hundreds of them, and you're not going to convince me that none of them can't teachl people to do what you do.

 

[Whodatsaywhodat.]

The unemployment rate is higher than the reported rats. Also even red states will have to have massive layoffs which will lead to further damage. What limited the economic damage was the large stimulus which was passed by Congress. Now Republicans are refusing to pass another bill. No less than the Fed chairman Jerome Powell says we need another large stimulus package. Republicans show they have no clue how to help the economy.

Biden said he would institute a national lockdown if the medical experts advised him to do so. That is what Trump should be doing rather than spreading the coronavirus.

A vote for Trump shows how much you hate this country. Trump represents the far right wing fascism that exists in this country.

Why would red states have to have massive layoffs? Didn't you read the OP? Unemployment has been dropping the last few months. The market is recovered and doing well. If Biden would get in and shutdown the country (which he has no constitutional authority to do) our unemployment rate will start going the other way.

The Republicans are not refusing to pass another bill, they are refusing to pass a pork laden bill from the Democrats wish list. Trump announced today that if the Democrats are willing to send him a bill just for the stimulus checks, he won't hesitate to sign it. It's Democrats who are holding America hostage, not Trump or the Republicans.

Biden plans to increase taxes on our job creators.
Biden plans to increase capital gains taxes which will ruin our stock market.
Biden plans to destroy suburbs causing massive property value losses.
Biden plans to make us green which will double or more the cost of energy.

If you hate America, the best way to show that is vote for Joe Biden.

The unemployment rate in Ohio is 8.9% The unemployment rate in Florida is 7.4%. That is why they will have to slash spending. Missouri has been forced to do this as well, The market has nothing to do with main street. There is no doubt the rich and well off are doing well. Biden does have the authority to institute a national lockdown if it becomes medically necessary. John Roberts had it right
when he wrote that judges should not substitute their judgement for that of elected officials and experts. The fact is the unemployment rate will not go down until the coronavirus is defeated whether through stringent measures such as a national lockdown or a vaccine developed without political pressure.

It is the Republicans who are holding us hostage. There should be a comprehensive bill. $1200 checks will do nothing if states and local governments are forced to institute massive layoffs. DeWine has fiscal issues. DeSantis does as well Larry Hogan, Susan Collins and John Kennedy realize this and recognize that states need fiscal help not as a bailout but to replace lost revenue. Republicans are abandoning Trump and telling Trump to resume negotiations.

The fact is that taxes are going to have to go up. Not necessarily to 70% but there may need to be a 5-10% tax surcharge to pay for what we are having to spend.
Everybody is going to have to pay. However I would support a transactions tax on Wall Street.
Biden is not going to do anything to the suburbs. Just more hogwash.
Many Republicans also believe that the party should develop global warming policies that are in between doing nothing as Trump favors and more draconian measures.

You Trump supporters are disgusting. Your opinion on who is destroying America is hysterical nonsense. You do not get to decide who is anti-America or not. You would have said the same thing about Martin Luther King.

So you believe that obama and biden

[Bush92]

No, it's because unlike other countries, we have a Constitution that our representatives cannot violate. We are a free country where life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness is guaranteed. Unlike other places, our government cannot force us to do anything.

Other G7 Countries are just as free as we are, and their police don't murder people in the street. They've ALL done better than we have.

Trump FAILED to show leadership in this crisis. Period. Full stop. He called it a hoax, he undermined people trying to solve the problem, he made wearing masks a cultural issue. His leadership has been a fucking disaster, and it shows.

I don't know why you people on the left figure you can lie by twisting facts and figures. Yes, you can do that with dumb Democrats, but not us Republicans. We do not have the most deaths. We are eight in deaths when it comes to per capita, meaning we are doing better than other countries.

Uh, the only countries that are doing "Worse" are third world countries or countries that are kind of small, like Belgium.

COVID-19 deaths per capita by country | Statista

COVID deaths worldwide were highest in Peru, topping a list that compares deaths per million in 210 countries worldwide.

www.statista.com

When it comes to the G7 Countries, we have 647 PM deaths, Worse than the UK (639), Italy (597), France (497) Canada (259) Germany (115), or Japan (statistically insignificant).

Also, other countries consider a Covid death when it was actually Covid that killed them. We don't. If you run into a wall at 100 mph, get killed, and tested positive for Covid, it's listed as a Covid death in the US.

Lie. I'm not sure why you think you can lie your way out of Trump's incompetence.

What Reagan did was get our economy going again and retarded our jobs moving overseas.

Actually, not really. Jobs moved overseas under Reagan. The only thing he did was encourage Japanese automakers to move some factories here.

The top 20% of wage earners in this country pay 80% of all collected income taxes. You can't tax them anymore because then it's not worth the risk for them to continue creating income.

The top 20% have 87% of the wealth... so they aren't paying anywhere NEAR their fair share. And income taxes aren't the only taxes collected.

See, this is why you leftists should never be in charge of the country. You'd destroy all of our jobs with your idiocy. Why do you think Slow Joe said he'd tax the rich, and when cornered on it, said he wouldn't? Same with Harris.

Actually, they were very clear that the RICH would pay more taxes, the rest of us won't. Anyone over $400,000. That works for me. If you are making $400,000 you can pay taxes.

Look, you guys said the same thing when Obama and Clinton made the rich pay more. "OH MY GOD, THE ECONOMY IS DOOMED!!!" The exact opposite happened. The economy boomed.

The last FIVE recessions happened when Republicans were in charge. You guys don't get to claim you know more about the economy.

No they are not. We are the only nation on earth that has a Constitution that protects the "people" from the "government." Other nations have constitutions that protect the government from the people. We are a transcontinental nation that you can fit three European continents into. We are a diverse nation of immigrants and with that comes a historical crime problem. Criminals kill people so our police often times use deadly force. George Floyd death was wrong use of force. The rest of the liberal media pushed uses of deadly force by law enforcement have been 100% justified because officers lives at risk. Democratic Socialist/ racist District Attorneys in urban areas bringing charges against police for extremist political reasons. Watch how many cases they lose. Grand Juries and Petit Juries are comprised of people with common sense. The exception being the dumb fucking O.J. jury.

It is more than just George Floyd. The police shoot a man 9 times in the back. Does it really take 9 shots? Then we have the Breanna Taylor case. The police did not knock as they claimed they did. A woman was killed because they did not. The AG lied to the grand jury. When you let the police get away with it then even legitimate cases are questioned. Police officers are responsible for this.

Seven times and Blake deserved every one of them for raping a woman. Taylor was a known associate of drug dealers and the police officers returned fire after one was shot first. Her boyfriend used her as a human shield. Anything else?

When was Blake convicted? There is no evidence that any of this is anything but the police lying to cover up their unlawful activities. The police officers refused to identify themselves. He had every right to fire. Even REPUBLICAN Tim Scott has stated he disagreed with the grand jury decision.

His ex wife called the police on him and he resisted arrest. They didn’t show up there for fun. If he doesn’t resist he doesn’t get shit. Release the grand jury docs. Taylor’s death while tragic has zero to do with racism. The KY AG is black. Spare me your outrage. It’s misplaced.

Bullshit. The fact is that no one knows who called the police. They are covering their ass. The KY AG shows that a black can be racist. A police officer is indicted because shots went into a apartment owned by a white family but nothing for the killing of Taylor. Even Sen Tim Scott has expressed his dismay at 6the decision. Cameron is either a racist or a crook. When Biden wins, there should be a civil rights investigation of the police. Cameron also needs to be investigated as to whether he obstructed justice when he lied to the grand jury about whether the police knocked.

Yep. Careless shooting but the shooter shit first and shot a police officer. Sorry you cannot make your own facts. Civil rights were not violated.

The shooter had every right to defend himself from unknown assailants. The ballistics report cannot prove whether the officer was shot by the individual defending himself or the police officers whose indiscriminate shots killed Taylor.

Police announced 4 times who they were. Listen to the audio dummy.

States run by Republican governors on average have economically outperformed states run by Democratic governors in recent months.

The difference in economic growth is likely due to the pathway of the coronavirus pandemic in the first few months and the economic restrictions imposed by Democratic governors.

Overall, Democratic-run states, particularly those in the Northeast and Midwest, had larger contractions in gross domestic product than Republican-run states in the Plains and the South, according to the latest state GDP data for the second quarter of 2020, released by the Commerce Department on Friday. Of the 20 states with the smallest decrease in state GDP, 13 were run by Republican governors, while the bottom 25 states with the highest decrease in state GDP were predominantly Democratic-run states.

Furthermore, the average unemployment rate across Republican states was 6.5% in August, compared to an average of 9% in Democrat states, according to an analysis of unemployment data by the Heritage Foundation, a conservative think tank.

There are multiple factors that lead to the split between the outcomes in Democratic and Republican states.

“The different economic shutdown policies and restrictions plays a big role,” said a senior economist in the Trump administration.

“But you also have to remember that in the second quarter, many Republican states hadn’t really been hit by the virus yet, like Texas, Arizona, and parts of Florida,” the official said. He said that Republican states were hit worse by the virus in the third quarter than the second, as the pandemic spread west and south.

“Also, the mix of industries in each state could also affect the economic growth, like Nevada, which is hugely dependent on travel and tourism,” the official added.

Red states are outperforming blue states economically - Washington Examiner

In spite of our dropping unemployment rate, the Democrats are still trying to tug the other way hoping to maintain a bad economy up to election day. We on the right have insisted this has been their plot all along, but the left are convinced by their puppet masters their leaders are stalling the economy for their own good.

Now that we have some results to look at, and what Biden said in his own words that he's be willing to shutdown the country if necessary, we have to ask ourselves if we want the entire country to be managed like these low performing blue states.

If you are a Trump hater, you have to ask yourself before voting: Do you hate Trump more than you love our country, or is it the other way around?

Leftism is the real Enemy of the American People .....


On all fronts.

They've proven that.

They've proven that.

And if they can get Biden in, they'll be proving it once again.

Nope. What's going to happen is first off, the market will crash. I know I'm getting some of my money out of there, and I suggest you do the same if you have any investments. I suspect many people will be packing their bags and heading for higher grounds as well. If you are 59 1/2, you can withdraw from your IRA with no penalty.

Again, you guys said the same shit in 2008, you said the same shit in 1992....

Trump will be the first President to have to deal with something like this in over 100 years. This virus is the only reason for our economy, just like Europe, just like any place else.

Europe has handled this much better, which is why their unemployment never got above 8%.

All Biden will do is destroy the county. Higher taxes for our job creators, higher prices with a national minimum wage of $15.00, when that causes a domino effect, more companies leaving the US or investing in automation,

Again, you guys keep saying that every time they raise the minimum wage, and THAT never happens. Automation happens no matter what the minimum wage is... then you just need to know how to run the machines, dummy. I mean, if you want to eat food prepared by a machine, have at it, I guess.

re-opening the border will bring our wages down on any remaining jobs, and invite more Covid into the country, higher capital gains taxes will destroy our market, Commie Care fines taking more money out of the pockets of people that need money the most,

Again, guy, you have to predict all these disasters, because your guy has caused disasters.

Trump fails the REagan Question... Are you better off than you were four years ago... Most people aren't. You clearly aren't.

It will continue to get worse until the 2022 elections when people get rid of the Democrat Congress. But until we Republicans can get another President as great as Trump, all they will be able to do is stop the decay, not reverse it.

Actually, you guys might make gains in 2022, but demographics are not your friend. There aren't enough angry old white guys left to keep you afloat.
