July 25, 20241 yr Ignoring the moral aspect of it all, calling her a **** over and over again just seems like poor strategy. Like how does that reach out to undecided voters?

I wonder if Trump will be so brazen as to bring up Hawk Tuah at some point. Let's hope so as that would really piss off the suburban moms.

Like how does that reach out to undecided voters? They are going to have to tag her as super liberal. Cool, we'll see how that works but they have two problems with that , 1.) Trump already calls every Democrat a communist, how does he ramp it up another notch fro Kamala? and 2.) She's running on Biden's record which is decidedly moderate.

I know your portfolio is 100% invested in forever stamps, so I'm not shocked you don't understand the correlation between inflation and GDP.

Focus on the border and try to convince everyone we're in a recession (gas prices!). Find an egregious case she prosecuted and plaster that person's face everywhere. Seems way more effective and less scummy than calling her Kommiela and sloot but what do I know 🤷. These pundits are really telling on themselves.

And according to this "U.S. central bank officials regard a 1.8% pace as the non-inflationary growth rate". Not stellar but we are finally getting positive results. Also in that article (and something I mentioned previous) we might start seeing rate cuts toward the end of the year. While there are other factors influencing that obviously, if we can continue positive growth and dipping inflation it will happen.

Sure, we're still in a slowdown phase of inflationary pressure. And nobody talks about the fact that inflation has also pushed wages up.

July 25, 20241 yr I'll wait until resident economics expert Lynched joins us before I pass judgement.
