Yeah it was one of those "loud" elections where no one won a majority decided by 2 points.

What I do think is good is now you guys are out of the closet about the Constitution. I'm glad you no longer pretend like law and order matters. A burden lifted.

No doubt, a shrinking minority of people are happy.

Some people don't have 401ks, don't buy goods or don't care about basic values like democracy or not having gulags.

Eventually though it will come to an end and it's going to be the felon and his cult on their way to Guantanamo. And that's going to spark real joy with a majority.
Democracy was at its peak when a guy w/dementia was running the country, masquerading as a president while allowing 15 million illegals into the country and printing money like it was candy to prop up the economy

Democracy was certainly redefined when that ice cream eating potato was unceramonsily removed from the election (after one of, if not the most pathetic debates any of us have ever seen) by the same people who assured us he was in pristine condition and was replaced with the candidate who, even with receiving no votes in the primary, turned out to be worse than the mentally declining guy in charge

Keep it up though
Keep calling people cultists
Dumb
Racists
Idiots
Bigots
Etc.

Don't let me, or anyone else, try to alter that playbook

It is funny when a Trumper calls out anyone else's eating habits. But at least Trump is a fantastic golfer- wonderful, he has not lost a single round or tourney either while he has been President or when he plays at the Country Club with his name on it...Good things all the photos of him and Epstein were obviously fake or he had no idea that Epstein also liked young girls.

Guy eats cheeseburgers and drinks Diet coke like it's crack

Or that he ****** things up beyond belief
Or that, as evidenced on November 4th, the American people spoke and decided 45 was going to become 47

They support the world’s greatest buffoon. He’s always been an undisciplined, unhinged, ignorant clown who is graded on a curve.

He clearly has no understanding of economics, the markets, and certainly has no appreciation or understanding of history.

If he did he’d realize that tariffs have NEVER worked, and have in fact led to disastrous economic outcomes.

But when you’re a simpleton who views everything as a zero sum game; well if you have a deficit you must be losing, lololol.

And they have the audacity to criticize others’ mental acuity.

This entire presidency is a joke. Sadly, a cruel joke. And it’s on us.

No one said the Durham Site had anything to do with any administration Obviously that type of facility takes years and years. My point was there was a reason they picked NC as opposed to upgrading the Rahway site which has plenty of room for expansion

True. But the reason that Merck chose Durham to expand Gardasil vaccine manufacturing probably has more to do with existing infrastructure footprint which was established 20 years ago rather than how friendly/unfriendly a specific state may be towards business. Durham was already set up as a Vaccine Commerical Manufacturing facility, so to expand there makes more sense than to build out from scratch in Rahway - which if I'm correct is now dedicated to R&D and Offices.

Sometimes. With tariffs, it's clear. Are there some tactical maneuvering and pivoting as he tests the waters? Sure. I also forgot to mention, another motivation, as if it was needed, is China's poisoning of Americans with fentanyl. There is no doubt this is intentional. Every move the CCP makes is well orchestrated. This is no doubt part of their payback for the humiliation of the opium wars.

Concerning tariffs - before the delay a massively leveraged dynamic emerged in the treasury market (playing the yield curve). That was seen as financial nuke intended to cause damage. Trump and Bessant used the delay to pull the rug out. Bessant of course worked with Soros when he played games with the Brits. Its going to be hard to beat these guys since they know the dark arts.

As for poisoned Americans - its rarely mentioned in media that the early targets were white, suburban, young people. The rules for dealers were no violence or tattoos, and work the suburbs out of nice homes. A car with a DARE stick out front would be a nice touch. The other target was the rural workers left in hollowed out areas after US manufacturing left for CCPs slave labor. Fentanyl was indeed orchestrated.

A Cornell prof describes the treasury game here at 1:24:00. - 1:43:30
These guys are real good at history and international relations (and cursing lol)

Hilarious that lil'boss is spamming this thread with his far left politics but calls the CE a "cesspool". Fact is he finally got tired of paying premium to be curb-stomped on the CE, and decided it's better to jump in with his triggered left-wing lunacy at every chance on the free boards where the thread will either be locked or posts deleted.

I can only speak for myself but I couldn't and can't stand Biden and did not like Harris either. Besides all of Biden's other faults- giving German Shepherds a bad name just pissed me off to no end. The man should not be allowed to own a dog.

But using them as a comparison is just a lazy way out.

The the Democratic party had anyone else but Harris- they would have crushed Trump. And again, that was because of Biden.

And if the Republican party had anyone other than Trump running (Nikki Haley, come on down), they would won by an even larger margin

Friends son gets laid off from Major Telecom firm in NJ due to a force reduction.

He's an Engineer with a Masters in EE.

Kids an Eagle Scout great all around extremely bright personable etc.

Can't find a job in NJ. is the economy really this bad?

Anyone have any contacts would be appreciated...

Bad times when everyone is looking for work is a good time to start own business.
I did it one summer in college days when the economy was dead.
Be fair and personable and people love it - first step leads to other levels and serendipity kicks in.
Of course one must pursue legit interests and not just chase a bag as Prime says

The clown car will go to the ends of the earth to rationalize stupid.
Clown car? Have you seen where the last administration was spending your hard earned money? If not, I suggested you read up on the NGO's they were the sole funder of. Now that's some real clown car sh*t. They not only didn't want to stop the immigration problem, rather they purposely helped fund it.

There are enough simpletons to go around on both sides of this. Your points you make in jest
Ignorant- no, he is far from "ignorant" he just talks like he is. I just haven't figured out if it is designed as such as he know his audience. But, he has always spoken like a 6th grader, so, I think it is just him. But he is far from ignorant. Dumb like a fox

Idiot- well, yeah

Anyone that voted for him is a simpleton - no, many voted for him because the prior President pissed them off too much. But, there are a ton of simpletons who hang on his every word like he is Jesus.
Racist...I don't think so. But tend to be comfortable with some level of racism as long as it isn't in their face or they are allowed to believe they are not racist.
Bigot- Well, Ol Donny may not be a bigot but he is an elitist playground bully

Ivanka is a smoke show
Don Jr and Eric, though not choir boys, aren't certainly degenerate crackheads
And, if one of them died, it's highly doubtful the other would bang the deceased brother's wife
But hey... at least Hunter's got art !!

I suggest you get your head out of the sand from the View and MSNBC. I prefer to do my own research from various sites and don't watch sensationalized TV news. Simply look up the various NGO's that recently shutdown on their own accord once the gig was up and you'll find what they were actually spending money on. Money that came from one source, the Federal Gov't, not private funding. It wasn't to help the poor and needy.

Oh and how's that inflation reduction act doing? You know the one that had nothing to do with inflation or it's reduction. Want the numbers on how much that one cost each American taxpayer?

Why are folks still whining about Biden/Harris/Hunter?

They're entirely inconsequential now. You won. Own it.
We're owning every bit of it
Guy's been in office for what, 3 months?
He's certainly done a lot more good then bad, and a lot more than the old guy w/Dementia did in 4 years

Does that define his term?
No - that will be determined when he's out in 4 years
But, as of now, he's off to a pretty decent start

Again, then why are you talking about the past?

Original post that raised a certain group's hackles was a direct response to the OP's question and merely mentioned tariffs.

I'd love to hear a rebuttal as to how he was wrong and it's really an ideal time to be laid off and out searching for a new job, rather than rehashing past complaints that are no longer relevant to reality.
