The great American paradox
The great American paradox
Voting for Trump is dumber than playing Russian Roulette with fully loaded chambers.

Wrong. Go back to the drawing board.

Re: The great American paradox
We have hundreds of thousands of jobs being created a month… low jobless claims… unemployment is very low.. higher GDP by quarter than under Trump prepandemic… we’ve got a bipartisan infrastructure bill… the CHIPS act and a record stock market. Trump would never have done better. He kept promising and never delivered. How many infrastructure weeks did we have again? Half a dozen?
Remarkably little got done under Trump… he would announce things and take credit up front and take no concrete action and move onto the next thing. He did this over and over again. He didn’t even build a wall… he repaired existing fence.
So with a track record of goose eggs forgive me if I tell you there’s no there there.
My beef with Biden is that the communication of all the positive things going on has been abysmal. They’ve let the Republicans simply make shit up about the economy and run with it. Even inflation is down to around 3%… that’s a damn sight better than it was and in Trumps ballpark. But he inherited from Obama his economic successes absent a small 2-3 quarter sugar rush from his one accomplishment… a tax cut for people who didn’t need one and crumbs for everybody else. Aren’t you suppose to be an accountant or some other similar thing that should be able to see balls and strikes on this kind of thing? Even I can for god sake.

Re: The great American paradox
I do think many things we are displeased about overseas would not of happened. I don't think Russia would be in Ukraine. I don't think the US would be trying to put a choker chain on Israel right now.
The flip side is if Donald was still prez, who would he be grooming for 2024? You say "Trump can never be in power again". Would that really be true?

Life is not a dress rehearsal. This is it. There's no going back, and we can only go forward before we run out of runway.
Re: The great American paradox
I highly doubt he would have lifted a finger to help Ukraine without something in return. He probably would have committed troops to Israel or something. That conflict over there doesn’t give a shit who is president over here.Round Six wrote: ↑Thu Jan 18, 2024 7:42 pmI do think many things we are displeased about overseas would not of happened.

Re: The great American paradox
Our country is in great shape economically, with reduced crime, with employment. Maybe Biden's secret weapon is just staying out of the way.

Re: The great American paradox
We agree on this. Domestically, not much would be different under either president. Yeah, we wouldn't have some of the mandates that everyone thinks is silly. Like what a highway sign should say.

Re: The great American paradox
My only thought is that I wish I could go back in time and stop Trump's dad from fucking his mom.
They/them, non-binary and proud.
Remember that “2000 Mules” was concocted by a circus of elephants.
The right needs to stop worry about what’s between people’s legs. Instead, they should focus on what’s between their ears.
Audacity sucks.

Re: The great American paradox
They’ve been mandating signage for decades… Joe didn’t think that one up last week or something. Color, reflectivity, size, format… all that stuff. We easily could have had that mandate under Trump. Agencies gonna make rules.Round Six wrote: ↑Thu Jan 18, 2024 8:17 pmWe agree on this. Domestically, not much would be different under either president.

Just think of the bat shit crazy stuff we WOULD have dealt with.
