That’s your view, I agree to disagree. If Trump was so great he wouldn’t have been ranked 41 of 45 by historians( before you respond look it up “ historians ranking of presidents and. See how they rank presidents) He would not have been one of the few incumbent presidents not to get re elected to a second term. “ A majority of USA v**ers + 81M v**ed him out- 2020 e******n was his employee survey. His handling of C***d( an opportunity if handled right Trump turned to a negative) affected him, not sure what you mean about what Marxist Democrats did to have him lose the e******n other than put a more viable candidate on the b****t. Trump lost and e******n, it wasn’t stolen, if you are going there. NO PROOF of stolen 2020 e******n that would change the results, exists- show it if you got it.

Go for it, I have enough more important things to work on. Cheers

It’s now ~3%, down from 9% high. Many things have come down or discontinued rising, some items have increased or stabilised leading currently to downward trend. Trump was at ~+2% which is desired Fed level. Getting closer to 2%.

I was around in 70’s and it hit ~14% and did not normalize for ten years(wages didn’t keep up either), jobs were not as strong, unemployment high( specially after Vietnam War ended, )government contractor and their jobs reduced significantly. Tough long time.

I do a majority of grocery shopping and I drive 40-50 miles a day to volunteer to coach Basketball. So I know gas has come down as some of the others.

Thanks for sharing.

That’s my understanding as well, less church goers, shorter marriages, fewer marriages, many just living together( typically no tax benefit to marry), to many single parents, commitment to things are not as frequency, high and low income brackets growing, ethic( t***h vs lies, doing what’s right vs my partisan platform), corruption, crime easy ways to make money, American dream of security and purchase own home-fading, used to be done on one family income member, now tough with two family income with one job each, embracing diversity is not widely accepted- to many closet r****t, sexist,etc.,- intolerance of those different than us across the board, fear of self or child shot for just being in the wrong place at wrong time, not enough emotional counselling available for all ages. Affordable health care, help for aged and homeless. Ones I can think of.

A lot of negative, but if each of us open our minds, pick one or two or more to work with congressman, peers, friends, support organizations to improve, parents and grandparents with kids, we still have hope.
Stress to growing low/tight income is creating more crime, homelessness

Ok got it now. I’m sending a paper to my congressman on ways to stop gun violence. As a gun owner I feel we need to put better controls in place, make emotional healthcare .
more available and approachable( it’s ok to seek help) and maintain gun ownership..
I have a great info card on emotional well being that could be a good start. I’ll take a pic and send it to you Friday.
Thanks for sharing

So demeaning over 80M people with your cussing and name calling and judging of others- that will go along ways to continuing civil discussion of issues and working to make USA better.

Related to Trump from 2026 campaign to today his negative rhetoric, his demand for absolute loyalty to him, the fact that his Republican associates that are mostly the ones testifying against him and his questionably legal ( maybe illegal- courts will tell) action prior, during and til today he has targeted himself.

Trump didn’t need media( grand juries who investigated him didn’t get fact/ evidence from the news, they found Trumps actions provided sufficient evidence to indict and prosecute himself. Trump University convicted of fraud, Trump NY business- summary judgement guilty of fraud trial ongoing to determine penalties, Convicted of defamation and sexual abuse- Jean Carroll case. 91 indictments pending.

Where are the indictments against Joe Biden? Trump utilised DOJ to get him out of prosecution from Mueller investigations, and majority in House to stifle J6 findings and sway impeachment( very close v**e in Senate).
You appear to be projecting Trumps attempted use of government agencies to cover his misdeeds to Joe Biden.

Again your words with no examples just your opinion make easy for me to say:
Your description of me is inaccurate with no factual support, . I could change paragraph one to rightest and me to you , and it just as easily be true( I don’t like swearing , name calling as it’s rude, demeaning, immoral and non value add.

Same for your second paragraph just change l*****t to rightist and it could be as true.

You don’t know me and I don’t know you so saying you do and calling me names and categorising me and others and judging solely based on these posts is inaccurate.

I provide facts that show Trump is fraudulent, King of Lies- in previous post, defamer and sexual abuser. All you provide are things on Biden’s son, no indictments or impeachments( Biden impeachment inquiry recently announced).
Same with e******n denial, I post tons of facts, you show none or outdated debunked conspiracy theories.

I have facts you have feelings. You are entitled to them and if these facts can’t even get “those facts are true” response at all, vs deflect to other issues, deflect to feelings based on what appears to be your far right only info sources( I look at both sides to get varying points of view then make my own opinion.), the. Stick with your unsupported opinion and I’ll agree to disagree and stick with my fact supported opinion.

Heres a few more, currently jobs high, unemployment low, inflation nearing 3% towards 2% target, infrastructure work in process from bill passage, breaking ground for micro chip mfging in USA, C***d t***sportation bottleneck eliminated, stock market highest- your investments should be good. Pumping more USA oil than ever.

Still got to get inflation lower, work on border and keep us out of war( three years no war)

How does this relate to Joe Biden?

We’ve been discussing Joe Biden vs Trump not Biden’s kids( not in public office) vs Trumps kids( recently in public office) don’t think you want to open up that bag of snakes.

USA Today
“It's true that Joe Biden leveraged $1 billion in aid to persuade Ukraine to oust its top prosecutor, Viktor Shokin, in March 2016. But it wasn't because Shokin was investigating Burisma. It was because Shokin wasn't pursuing corruption among the country's politicians. “
It was his assignment to oust Victor or get him to start taking action as Victor had done no prosecutions in office when the World knew I corruption was rampant in Ukraine and USA couldn’t send funds to a country with out of control corruption . It was part of the strategy.

Good comment. History has proven that great organizations and great countries eventually fall. Roman’s, Huns, Alexander the Great Macedonia, Greeks,Germany, Egypt,,Large companies same way. Why -integrity, morality, ethics, huge wealth imbalance, invasion from outside or r*******n from inside.
I agree we are creating slowly the environment for the American experiment to fall.

We need to better vett elected officials, ensure job s are desirable, we need to each search in ourselves t***h, morality,respect for others, and ethics. Need to re-establish national patriotism
( I’m scared if we had a war and tried a draft today it would be worse than Vietnam era draft-dodgers, people fleeing, mothers up in arms) a pure disaster. We need to establish a process for more income e******y- not sure what that is-trickle down didn’t work, having wealthy pay fair share for SS, other taxes without destroying free enterprise, we have to accept that in this country we should not hesitate to help the poor and aged.
If we do these things by these ideas or others we can length life of our democratic republic experiment!

Thanks for sharing stimulated many thoughts-bigger picture
Cheers!

Some cities like Chicago have issues, the same issues were there 20 years ago. Many cities have issues, you can’t take two situations and expand them only to every Democratic lead city, but to all cities . You will find the same. Last I looked violent crimes in USA are trending down, I’ll see if I can find the chart.

In my experience I’ve over 40 years working for various companies, I had many bosses, many had opinion surveys each year, those that had two in a row of low employee surveys were moved to other positions or released.
Trump had a four year survey and his actions on the job got him v**ed out.

I good boss doesn’t demand loyalty or respect, they earn it through their actions and interactions, . Your boss description would be one of those bosses fired in two years as Trump was in four.
Check out the indictments in Trumps staff. If you look up staff turnover Trump is number one with his hand picked best ever as he touted staff.
No democrats, no media created Trumps issues he did it himself with his negative rhetoric, not listening to his staff recommendations ( In Bob Woodward tape-I decide what I think is best. All decisions are mine-regardless of any staff recommendation's), and questionable actions.

First of all again your name calling of people who disagree with you is immoral, demeaning, and adds no value to the discussion, it’s a bullying technique that is not needed to carry on a civil discussion.

I do not h**e Trump and it’s not the Marxist media that made Trump say the lies he’s said, do the illegal things he done and been convicted of or the questionable actions he taken to demonstrate his lack of respect for the law and others. Trump is not a victim, his rhetoric, his questionable deeds led to investigations, evidence enough of wrongdoing, potentially illegal wrongdoing to have grand jury indictments. This is just being held accountable for actions taken, words said.
So this is not h**e this is due diligence and accountability.
Plus Trump has News Media that absolutely love him that are portraying him as he wants the victim prosecuted by his enemies.
The partisan division got deeper and stronger under Trump as GOP leader last seven years. 100% support me and my thoughts and my agenda or I’ll get you primaries out.That takes away any compromise builds a huge partisan walk. That’s the only wall he finished and it’s not a good thing.
The statement that h**e for Trump built the partisan wall is not correct!Maga deflecting and projecting again what MAGA does to the other side. You have it backwards.
Got to look at both sides then listen to facts and determine where the t***h lies. I’ll say the t***h lies with three convictions and 91 indictments( guilt or innocence TBD) vs Bidens zero convictions and no indictment to date. I’ll go with the hard true facts .

Trump has earned an accounting for his actions. Time will tell.

We will see how that one works out. Did you ever have kids or friends who had kids arrested for traffic violation, drugs or other crimes?
Were the parents automatically deemed guilty as well? I think not.
Let’s focus on Trump and Biden not their kids until it’s being litigated that Trump or Biden did something illegal to help there kids. The Biden impeachment investigation recently announced by house ethics committee should shine some light on this subject.

Did you break the law? What’s your point ? More should have been arrested as some got away?
If you broke the law you should’ve been arrested.
