How many battlegrounds states did the Democrats win? Dems are the laughing stock right now and it's the lowest point any time of the party. 

I can't get my personas straight.

 

Are you one of these "my business depends on immigrant labor but I'm totally not going to get wrecked" people?

It's really hard to fathom the level of retardation that is required to vote someone in based on reacting to high (but falling) inflation, and then supporting this idiot as he goes about implementing

It isn't difficult; they are just that stupid...

Also, can we just laugh at the absurdity of Trump claiming to be some master deal-maker and then revealing that the primary tool in his tool-kit is threatening his allies with economic violence? Are w

On Friday morning, West Coast port officials told CNN about a startling sight: Not a single cargo vessel had left China with goods for the two major West Coast ports in the past 12 hours. That hasn’t happened since the pandemic.

 

Six days ago, 41 vessels were scheduled to depart China for the San Pedro Bay Complex, which encompasses both the Port of Los Angeles and Port of Long Beach in California. On Friday, it was zero.

 
The busiest ports in the country are experiencing steep declines in cargo. The Port of Long Beach is seeing a 35-40% drop compared to normal cargo volume. The Port of Los Angeles had a 31% drop in volume this week, and the Port of New York and Jersey says it’s also bracing for a slowdown. On Wednesday, the Port of Seattle said it had zero container ships in the port, another anomaly that hasn’t happened since the pandemic.

If you have more now than you did when Biden was President that means that you either sold and bought lower to ride the wave back up, had so little to begin with that the decrease in your beginning portfolio is offset by new contributions or have contributed so much in new contributions that it offsets the decrease in a much larger portfolio.

 

Among all of those, the only true increase would be in the first one. Everything else is just new contributions.

 

Since he already scoffed at ever selling, that leaves new contributions only.

In fairness to headhunter when it comes to Trumpism facts go out the window, nothing is more fact based than math!

 

2+2 = 4. 

 

Trump: no "2+2 is 5"

 

Trumper: "2+2 is 5"

 

No, see this calculator, 2+2 = 4. 

 

Trumper" "TDS!"

Border crossings are down and anti-woke policies are in place.

 

Let the celebration continue.

 


 Apparently trade, commerce, and the economy are a small price to pay to keep American blood untainted.

During the last administration,

From Dec 27, 2021 to Sep 27, 2022 the DOW went from 36,338 to 29,134. Lost 20%.

 

Dec 21 to Sep 22 time frame household income was $87,501 to $88,639 or 1% increase.

 

Inflation was 7 to 9.1% over that same time frame.

 

None of you Nancy's posted about how the Dems had fucked the country over.

What would Trump have done differently that would've improved those figures during that time?
