Dotard is convinced he is responsible for a booming economy. Evidently, the enablers in his inner circle are afraid to tell him the truth.

32000 less jobs is nothing. Remember illegals are being deported and useless government employees fired. Trumps policies havent started yet.
Many small businesses are in democrat cities where crime is driving them out of business. GDP Is 3.8% wages are up taxes will be cut in Jan. Manufacturing investment is at an all time high. Biden had 4 years to wreck the economy Trump only had 11 months and already its better

Tech companies cited artificial intelligence in 48,414 U.S. job cuts this year, with 31,000 announced in October alone.
The trend has sparked a debate over whether AI truly drives layoffs or companies use it to justify cuts for other reasons, including overexpansion and uncertain economic conditions.

We've been "printing" money since 2008 ... c.f. Weimar Republic ... you want higher wages, then your employer has to charge more for the product you're making ... "those who do not study history are bound to repeat it" ...

I think that's true. He really does seem to believe everything is great.

And this is precisely the danger when an erratic autocrat surrounds himself with people who are afraid to say "no".

History has shown us this, over and over and over.

Just the other day I heard him say he inherited "historically high" inflation. It was about 3% when Biden left office. Dear Leader is either delusional or uninformed.

I don't remember the name of it, but there is a psychosis that essentially means you instantly talk yourself into believing any lie that pops out of your mouth, no matter how easily disproven it is.

But looking at the flock, I didn't know that such a psychosis is contagious. I guess North Korea might be an example.

Kroger says they are leaving Florida. But that is more because of insurance from the storms and every other person going into the store will shoplift.

Presumably Dotard was in the room when the MRI was performed. At least in a physical sense.

Trump says he'll release MRI results and that he doesn't know what part of his body was scanned​

The White House has so far declined to detail why President Donald Trump had an MRI during his physical last month or on what part of his body.

www.nbcnews.com

If Biden had said..........Trump added Sunday that he has "no idea" on what part of his body he got the MRI.

"It was just an MRI," he said. "What part of the body? It wasn't the brain because I took a cognitive test and I aced it."

..........MAGAists would still be talking about his mental decline.

president’s job approval rating was down to 36%, a new low for his second term, while his disapproval rating had jumped to 60%.

Trump is “underwater in every category” economy, health care, the Epstein investigation, education and the environment.

Inflation may have come down but the damage caused to the economy by Biden hadn't corrected itself yet.

Nonsense. Why do you think Xmas ornaments are so expensive this year? Trump's tariffs.

Next year prices are going up. Why? It ain't Biden. That's the one hint I'll give you.

Did you hear Trump said we won't have to pay income taxes anymore because Tariffs are going to replace them. That's wonderful! Don't hold your breath.

Yes, according to data from May 2025, consumer prices were easing, and certain prices, such as those for eggs, gas, and airfare, saw significant declines. While overall inflation had decreased, many household costs remained elevated compared to previous years.

Key price changes in May 2025

• Overall consumer prices: Eased due to lower energy costs, with inflation hovering near its lowest point since 2021.
• Eggs: Experienced the largest one-month decline in more than four decades.
• Gas prices: Fell for the third consecutive month.
• Other prices: Decreased for airfare, energy, hotels, and used vehicles compared to the previous year.

Broader economic context

• Grocery prices: Saw their largest decline in nearly five years, although food-at-home inflation was still running at an annual rate of 2.7% in October 2025.
• Real wages: Workers' real wages were up, increasing for three consecutive months.

Don't buy them then.

Next year prices are going up.

Gasoline prices appear to be coming down just this week...... That's one of the drivers of inflation.

Did you hear Trump said we won't have to pay income taxes anymore because Tariffs are going to replace them.

Yeah.

He just insults them every day, and they don't realize it.

It must be easy, since they have little to no understanding of tariffs, supply chains or costs of doing business.

That bullshit about taxes and tariffs should make them furious, but they don't know any better.
