the desperation just DRIPS off of some of these posts... :chin: :ROFLMAO:
Wow, Trichy! 6 posts of utter BS in less than 35 min! I'm worried about you! You have quite the fever today, don't you?

i can see you poised over the keyboard with veins bulging, sweat dripping, and eyes bulging, as your fingers burn from friction with the keys.

do you get some cathartic release as a reward?

but don't worry! I'm sure everyone is reading every detail of your posts and reconsidering their choice for President!

Thank You, Citizen, for doing your patriotic duty!

@trichrider Who cares about foreign or native-born employment ratios when unemployment is the lowest under any President since WW2 except for Dwight Eisenhower and Lyndon Johnson?

the chart below shows that Trump began his term with 4.7% and ended with 6.4%.

Biden inherited Trump's 6.4% and now it is at 3.9%.

from the same article GDP growth[edit]
Annualized real GDP growth rates under U.S. presidents from Eisenhower to Biden, sorted by growth rate. Data source: U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis quarterly data through the first quarter of 2023. Democrats are in blue, Republicans are in red. The quarter in which a new president takes office is attributed to the incoming president.[9][10]
GDP is a measure of both the economic production and income. The Economist reported in August 2014 that real (inflation-adjusted) GDP growth averaged about 1.8 percentage points faster under Democrats, from Truman through Obama's first term, which ended in January 2013.[2] Blinder and Watson estimated the average Democratic real GDP growth rate at 4.3%, vs. 2.5% for Republicans, from President Truman's elected term through President Obama's first term, which ended January 2013.[1] This pattern of faster GDP growth under Democratic presidents continued after Blinder and Watson published their study; GDP grew faster both in President Obama's second term and in the first two years of President Biden's administration than in President Trump's term.[11]

CNN reported in September 2020 that GDP grew 4.1% on average under Democrats, versus 2.5% under Republicans, from 1945 through the second quarter of 2020, a difference of 1.6 percentage points.[3] The New York Times reported in February 2021 that: "Since 1933, the economy has grown at an annual average rate of 4.6 percent under Democratic presidents and 2.4 percent under Republicans...The average income of Americans would be more than double its current level if the economy had somehow grown at the Democratic rate for all of the past nine decades.[12]


editing to add that the DOW is close to 40,000.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) hit its record high on Feb. 23, 2024, reaching 39,282.28 points in intraday trading. The Dow's all-time high at market close stands at 39,131.53, reached the same day.

it looks like investor confidence is up, Trichy!

"The average income of Americans would be more than double its current level if the economy had somehow grown at the Democratic rate for all of the past nine decades.[12]"

You do not ever quote me in a post and edit what I said you moron! I don't know what makes you think that behavior is acceptable. You want to quote me and speak your mind fair game, but you dont edit my words ever. The mods will moderate me if I say something out of line, but you quoting me and editing the quote is unnacceptable.

You think you speak for me? Guess we know now, you dont! You liberals need to quit thinking you represent everyone. You need to quit editing quotes and truths and trying to redefine the human language to suit your narratives. You are free to quote me and say anything you like, but you will not be quoting me and editing my words. That's as disrespectful and childish as it gets.

This government worships the statue of liberty, but they dont comprehend the statutes of liberty. 30,000+ statutes of captivity. You think you are smart dont you cupcake. I rip bongs and consume cupcakes for fun. You liberals have confused your highness for your heinous, I pitty the fools. Enjoy riding the Joseph Bidet express.

So much happened on my time out. Illegal immigrants trying to steal houses and go figure same thing is happening in the UK I imagine all over the EU too haven't seen much about Europe though. Only way Trump loses is if the illegals get to vote.

With all of these negatives, why is it close election? What does that say about Biden? Don’t blame voters either. They’re just acting in some incentive driven direction.

The real question is why 70+ million people would vote for either of these clowns.

We’re supposed to pick from either geriatric asshole crook and feel like we’re doing something good?
