What would right wing media be saying about the Biden admin if.............

[Lesh]

No. Where did you get that silly idea? The DNC? The liberal media?

Silly idea? Trump said he would lower inflation

It has risen

 

[Slade3200]

Yes, but inflation would not increase with small cuts in interest rates above the neutral rate.

If the Fed cuts rates to 1% (below the neutral rate) then yes, inflation would probably happen.

The Fed likely would have cut rates by now if it wasn’t for Trumps tariffs. The effects of tarriffs is a driver of consumer goods costs, an economic effect similar to inflation. The Fed has been working for years to curb inflation and reduce consumer goods pricing…. It wouldnt be responsible to flame inflationary activity at the same time as Trump u leashing his chaotic tarriff plan. The Fed is being conservative and waiting to see how the economy reacts to the Trump chaos

 

[Slade3200]

Balancing the budget is the long term solution. Paying down the $37T debt is a long term solution.
Cutting $1.5T off Biden's last budget is a long term solution.
True, Trump likes splashy headlines.

You really think Trump gives a shit about debt reduction?! I sure don’t

 

[Slade3200]

What was the Fed rate then? Hint: ZERO

What is the Fed rate today? Hint: 4.5%

What is the neutral rate? Hint: 2.5%

There is room to cut rates a percent or two, saving $300b to $600b off the budget for interest.

Yes it was next to nothing so everybody borrowed and inflation soared. The rates went up to slow borrowing and curb inflation. the ultimate goal being to control consumer goods pricing.

Trumpers neither understand how this works nor care

 

[rightwinger]

Exaggerate much?

I had three friends and family dies of COVID before the vaccine. After the vaccine, exactly zero got seriously sick and none were ever hospitalized. My wife had COVID 3 times. My daughter had it 4 times. Bad colds were far worse. That works for me and flies in the face of your statement.

I got COVID positive test on a Monday. MY PCP got me the monoclonal antibody infusion on Saturday. By then, I had already recovered fully from COVID and never had it again except once testing positive one additional time when my wife had it and I developed no symptoms.

Don’t tell me, I am fully COVID vaccinated and lost my SIL a month before the vaccine came out.


Explain the benefits to MAGA

Immigrants whether illegal or not

Stupid

The issue isn’t legal immigrants they get vetted, it was the illegals he told to surge that were untested and sent all over the country in the middle of a pandemic

 

[struth]

I didn’t miss 2022

You seemed to when you ignored it in the graph

 

[struth]

Those who refused vaccines died
Trumps guidance of…..take it if you want
Didn’t help

Folks that took the vaccine died too. Xiden lying and telling people if they got the vaccine they wouldn’t get sick not to mention opening our border to a surge of untested illegals.

Trump never said take it if you want, his policies gave us the vaccines, harris throughout 2020 spreading distrust about it didn’t help, but you are right trump was not a fascist that tried to force people to get it, like xiden who fired people if they wouldn’t get it

For most of the world, vaccines saved lives

Unless you listened to MAGA misinformation

MAGA doesn't believe that and the fact you do is very telling. Haven't you seen the pushback among all of the so-called conservatives on this forum who bash the vaccine with zero evidence? Of course you have but you can't resist to use that broad brush.

........jobs numbers had been revised downward to this degree?

The July jobs report showed nonfarm payrolls expanded by 73,000 last month, well beneath the consensus estimate from economists polled by Dow Jones that called for a 100,000 increase to payrolls. Prior months were significantly revised down. June job growth totaled just 14,000, down from 147,000. The May count came down to 19,000 from 125,000, signaling the labor market has been weakening for a while now.

It would be saying Biden lied to hide a weakening economy.

We already know about left wing media and you. Lies on top of more lies.

We got vaccinated and urge the population to get the Trump promoted vaccines.

 

[citygator]

I have a better reason for that 73000 figure.

All the illegal labor is fleeing the country. Now we're left with a work averse population that won't go out and look for work.

You should study the difference between Jobs and Workers. It will make you delete that post in embarrassment.

Yes Trump’s vaccines saved lives

We don’t disagree

Even with them Biden screwed everything up and gave us record COVID deaths and skyrocket inflation.

Leaving a majority of Americans worse off then they were even in 2020

 

[citygator]

Well... since nobody is interested in explaining their positions, I'll simply have to assume they don't know what they're talking about, either.

There is no monetary policy to fix stagflation. That is why is sucks. Low GDP plus inflation is the kryptonite to a super economy.

That is pretty hard to prove. What shocks me most about Democrats is they completely ignore it was MAGA that sped up the vaccines to the public in the first place. We never said to not get vaccinated.

My daughter the registered nurse is upset she got vaccinated and so did her husband and their son. After that they caught covid over and over. The only one in the family that did not catch covid was their daughter who to this day never got sick

Thankfully we have high gdp at 3 percent and lower inflation then what we did when xiden left office

Clearly, employers are pulling back hiring because of the uncertainty of what the Fed was gonna do, hoping they cut interest rates so they can expand.

 

[citygator]

Only MAGA can take a jobs thread and turn it into vaccine disinformation thread. Way to go.
