    Good news for Democrats
    -Sinema and Manchin now on board with the bill that finances healthcare and dealing with climate by eliminating tax breaks for billionaires.

    -Kansas rejects fascist takeover of women's rights in a huge turnout.

    -528 thousand jobs added to the economy

    -Oil prices way down from a month ago.

    Bad news for Republican
    -Their beloved, once conservative event, CPAC, taken over by a Hungarian NAZI. A definite sign that the GOP is slowly becoming the Fascist Party of America.

    Nobody is buying your media bias ranting
    Gas is still $1.80 higher than when Biden took office,
    Everyone knows we are in a recession no matter how much you try and deny it
    Inflation is at historical highs
    None of these new job reports represents black Americans as they have been abandoned
    In fact everyone knows these job numbers are fake because they eliminated those who quit looking for jobs from their data
    Everyone has witnesses the Soviet style kangaroo committee Democrat swoon over showing how Democrats would rule if in power
    Our illegal border crossings are at historical highs
    The Crime explosion from the lefts Defund Police movement

    But you think everything is just rosy because todays news isn't as bad as yesterdays?
    You should prepare yourself. Midterms are going to be a lefty bloodbath

    I guess you were never taught to not count your chickens before they hatch.

    I'd suggest that "slowly" is changed to "warp speed". It feels like a tidal wave over here.

    The chickens have already hatched. Are you oblivious to the lowest president approval rating in history coupled with the disasters of this administration?
    Are you not aware of our current economic state?
    Have you looked at a single poll in the last 2 years?
    Are you aware the 76% of Democrat staffers have already concluded midterms are going to be a disaster?
    Have you not seen the fallout of 78% of Democrats stating we are on the wrong path?

    While everyone else is counting hatched chickens, you seem to be looking for miracles.

    Yeah, and I'm sure you thought Donnie would win 2020. Sorry, but you're no Nostradamus.

    Which every economist not under contract to Democratic party says will lead to more inflation and tax hikes reaching down into middle class or lower
    And yet Republicans did well in other races - pretty much shooting down the "all Republicans hate abortion" bullshit you guys try to see.
    And YET Biden hasn't added as many jobs since the pandemic in 18 months as Trump did in ten.
    Demand dries up because of recession
    Basically a lie.

    It's always a great thing when people take on two jobs because of inflation.

    Which means, of course, that ALL the economists that have said that it won't are under contract to the Democratic Party.

    Did you have anything to comment that is NOT just another one of you wild conspiracy theories?

    Of course! I said that in the thread I opened about the topic. Only fanatics and fascist MAGA-extremists hate women's rights. Normal Republicans don't. The fact that we have a Supreme Court full of the former doesn't mean that conservatives have changed their principles.

    You mean before or after he killed millions of them? I wouldn't bring Trump into a discussion about job creation. He is by far the WORST job killer in history. And it wasn't just because of the pandemic....

    False.
    Basically nonsense.

    Basic BS again. The result in Kansas which you seem so elated about is a direct result of SCOTUS's action.

    Total red herring.
    More nonsense. He fought through a recession causes by the pandemic and added 13 million jobs - the latest report puts Biden's gain at 9.5 million.
    Here's the actual Bureau of Labor Statistics payroll numbers. Please point out were Trump lost jobs EXCEPT during the onset of the pandemic.




    Here it is in graphical form for the numerically challenged:

    Me? YOU just did.

    Look


    [​IMG]

    Uhmmmm... You do know that Biden became President in January 2021, right?

    YOUR graph shows how the country gets back on track NOW. After BIDEN became President.

    Trump is the ONLY President who ended a term with less jobs than when he took over.

    Here... compare him to OTHER Presidents

    Yep.
    Actually the graph shows a strong recovery under Trump with a strong upward slope that gets shallower after Jan 2021 when Biden took over.
    LOL, a massive school of red herring.
    LOL I Provide official numbers and you counter with Wa Poo red herring.

    The problem that Republicans have when they rely on this kind of things to hope for a big win at the ballot box, is that all these things are temporary.

    So if gas prices STAY $1.80 higher in November, they get a talking point. But what if they keep falling? Same goes for any other temporary economic condition. These are things over which the President has very little control, so they might still exist when it comes time to vote, or they won't and... since right wingers don't CARE when they are proven wrong, it will simply mean one less talking point (it would be a different story if it were Democrats who DO mind more about being proven wrong)

    But Democrats rely more on REAL narratives. Trump's corruption will be a thing now and in November. The threat to women's rights, gay rights, civil rights... will still be real. Mass shootings are not going to disappear. The consequences of Climate change might not be felt as severely, but people who understand the science KNOW that they will come back.

    Wrong! We lost 140 thousand jobs in December 2020. It shoots up after January. And YOUR graph, shows exactly that.

    Clearly Trump (as YOUR graph shows) is the worst jobs President in history.

    Now... this is absolutely irrelevant, because in December of 2020 and January of 2021, the LAST thing on Trump's mind was jobs. His ONLY concern was planning the insurrection. He did absolutely NOTHING to create jobs. He did absolutely NOTHING to do ANYTHING. So your graphs would be moot even if jobs had NOT been lost in his last full month as President.

    Out of 145 MILLION. a tiny blip at most. You're desperation is showing.
    Nonsense.
    Pure nonsense. The little blip was most like people listening to the crap Biden was spewing and worrying how that would effect the economy.

    One day of good news doesn't erase 2 years of Biden disasters.
