The US Fed Reserve said no more increases and forecasts 3 rate cuts next year which along with the excellent job report, UI at 3.7%, gas way down, inflation 3.1%. Does this mean Biden will win in a landslide as the markets will now take off again?

It is all but impossible to ignore the excellent economic news and data coming out of the US. Fed Chair Jerome Powell directly said there is no recession on the horizon, he plans to cut interest rates at least 3 times next year and everything is in place for the long sought and rarely found, soft landing.

By far the highest closing level in history, the DJIA at 37,090 Dec 13 2023 WOW

Let’s pause for a moment and give a major round of applause to Powell, the Fed, the Biden administration, the investors, the various hundreds of billions that Biden has put into infrastructure, the CHIPs act which has increased manufacturing construction by 200%. Let us also thank the American consumer, the millions and millions of women who have come back to the market, especially black women who are now at or above pre-p******c employment levels with much higher wages than before that yes, are beating inflation.

Let us thank Biden for not changing the Trump drilling strategy and quietly carrying on to the point where the US is now the acknowledged #1 oil producer in the world thus balancing off OPEC+ and anything they want to do to hurt economies around the world.

Let’s thank COP28 that also signed an historic 200 country agreement to end the use of f****l f**ls, signed no less in Dubai which only exists because of oil production.

Let’s thank employers who have invested in people, in billions in new equipment to become more efficient. Let’s thank the community colleges and tech schools around the world including the USA, UK, Australia, Germany and more who are turning out hundreds of thousands of tech grads in everything from electricians to plumbers to IT specialists.

And let us thank the American consumers who have once again come to the rescue of the world, buying and buying and upgrading everything they own and traveling the world and spending all of those $$ they received from the C***D times from the govt and more.

And let me ask a simple question, is there anything the republicans could have done better?

Is there anything they would like to take back? Like nothing for single moms, they didn’t like that one which reduced child poverty in the US by 50%. Or infrastructure, 90% didn’t like that either or the CHIPS act, most v**ed against that and on and on it goes. Yet they are all there, cutting ribbons on new factories, fighting for more infrastructure $$ and taking credit for everything Biden fought for and got done.

Is it a perfect time? Of course not, the southern border is still a real crisis and the democrat's solution is terrible while the GOP's is better but draconian.

What we need to do though is look at those market numbers folks. All time high today, day after day after day. the DJIA is not the economy but it sure is a hell'uva lot better by 25% since Trump left office and way higher than anything he did to juice it with a tax cut.

Biden did it the old fashioned FDR way and my goodness it is morning in America or better yet, happy days are here again.

Well done team America, you shocked the world and the republicans and frankly me too. Who would'a thunk Biden who took office in a recession in the middle of a p******c and fought his way out of it investing in America and people and the Fed who blew it for so long, could now get it so right?

They absolutely refuse to acknowledge the job market is not new jobs but a continuation of companies fully reopening after the government demanded they close for C***D.

They absolutely refuse to acknowledge the negligible impact the minimum reduction in inflation is having after being its highest in 40 years.

60% of the American people disapprove of how Biden is handling the economy because they feel the pinch. They do not care about spin from economic eggheads. They care about their daily struggle to meet needs.

Tell you what. When I see any of that, I'll cheer. Until then, I'll believe it when I see it. Biden is known for lying so.....

Some points were good and some crap to me. I have never said that Biden hasn't done anything good, but on so many important issues, he seems very uniformed or just no t***sparency.

Liberty Tree

They try to brag about how many i******s they catch at the border, but do not admit to how many got away and how many they release never to be seen again.

Knightlady

Why in heavens name would I brag about that? That's one of the important issues that Biden/Harris suck at. Basically ANY foreign relations of any kind.

Knightlady

Except China of course.

Liberty Tree

But, they have the nerve to say the border is secure.

Knightlady

I know. They apparently don't watch the news. Or the news that reports it. No, I'm not talking about Fox only.

I mean, all of the sanctuary states are crying foul. You think he'd listen to them at least.

Liberty Tree

He figures they will v**e for him no matter what.

This guy’s opinion is fantasy.

And for the ones with their eyes open - none of this t***slates to the cost of living getting lower. None of it t***slates to lower prices for essentials like food and housing. None of it t***slates to fewer homeless. Child poverty isn’t in reality reduced. And there is so much more

There are always those who try and put lipstick on a pig - thats what this guy is doing. And he forgets to include that this white house occupant has ushered in an unprecendented amorality in our society - especially against women and children

Knightlady

Well, they are trying to speed up the v****g privileges. Maybe they won't v**e for him since some people are saying, This sucks, I wanna go home to my own country!!!!

Liberty Tree

If they leave Democrats will help them with mail in b****ts.
