    If you don't care that MAGA is a Nazi-style movement, the only thing you have to know about this race is that Trump's plans will destroy the economy (20% sales tax "tariff" and crippling deportations) while Harris' will improve it (attacking price gouging, build new housing).
    Your view is opposite of real life realities.  When Trump was President, the economy was good. With Harris, we all got screwed with much higher prices,  wages outpaced by inflation, higher debt.  That is why Harris's message is not catching on with most Americans. Actions speak louder than words, and her actions made things much worse for majority of Americans. Case closed.
    Did Kamala cause the inflation over here in Sweden happening at the same time?
    @Philly NJ Enlighten me, please
    One of two things is happening with our maga friends. Either they don't have the mental capacity to realize that was something the whole world went through....or they refuse to admit it because they know it makes their political point look stupid in context. Not a great look either way. 

    What will likely happen is he will ignore your request for enlightenment.

    The Trump campaign has WON its lawsuit in Pennsylvania against Bucks County after they shut off voting lines early yesterday.

    The only lawsuits from Harris are to keep non-citizens on the voter rolls and to keep the border open. Harris is a danger to our Republic. With each passing day, more Americans can witness it.


    Judge Christopher Boyko in Ohio just issued a ruling against Democrats by rejecting their motion to block the Secretary of State's rule requiring voters to show proof of citizenship if their status is unclear.

    My 401(k) is flying high and I will sell all the stocks if Trump wins. He crashed it last time and he will do it again, much faster. He inherited Obama's economy and left it in shreds. I say the worst person in American history.
    No matter who wins, you should take some profit now. Overdue for a correction. Seriously, unless you have 10-15 years to ride out the correction, nothing wrong with selling, putting that cash into fixed income for awhile. Good luck.
    Remember when Trump said we were close a Depression over the summer? That was funny. He's an idiot. 

    Did you read that WSJ I posted? Any thoughts?

    Regarding things costing more, have you considered the fact that the whole world endured the same inflation we did a couple years ago, yet our country has handled it better than anyone else? 

    Source: some smart guy on Twitter:

    "Much of our economic growth in the past 4 years has been driven by deficit spending (more debt).

    A huge portion of that "growth" was just the Fed printing a few trillion $$$ digitally and using various programs to shove those $$$ into the banking system and funding the govt's deficit spending.

    This is not a sustainable policy. It leads to massive inflation and distorts the markets with govt and Fed manipulation"

    How much deficit spending did the "whole world" do since 4Q2000?

    Could you please explain to me about Kamala creating inflation, and if the inflation that happened in Sweden at the same time also is her fault?

    Wait a minute....you are suddenly concerned about deficit spending? Are you aware that Trump's proposals will add 3 trillion more to the deficit than Harris'? This is on top of Trump spending  TWICE as much as Biden has.

    YOU ARE VOTING FOR THE WRONG PERSON.

    Trump ran up national debt twice as much as Biden: new analysis

    New ten-year borrowing by presidential term

    Data: Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget; Chart: Axios Visuals

    Former President Trump ran up the national debt by about twice as much as President Biden, according to a new analysis of their fiscal track records.

    Why it matters: The winner of November's election faces a gloomy fiscal outlook, with rapidly rising debt levels at a time when interest rates are already high and demographic pressure on retirement programs is rising.

    • Both candidates bear a share of the responsibility, as each added trillions to that tally while in office.
    • But Trump's contribution was significantly higher, according to the fiscal watchdogs at the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget, thanks to both tax cuts and spending deals struck in his four years in the White House.

    By the numbers: Trump added $8.4 trillion in borrowing over a ten-year window, CRFB finds in a report out this morning.

    • Biden's figure clocks in at $4.3 trillion with seven months remaining in his term.
    • If you exclude COVID relief spending from the tally, the numbers are $4.8 trillion for Trump and $2.2 trillion for Biden.

    State of play: For Trump, the biggest non-COVID drivers of higher public debt were his signature tax cuts enacted in 2017 (causing $1.9 trillion in additional borrowing) and bipartisan spending packages (which added $2.1 trillion).

    • For Biden, major non-COVID factors include 2022 and 2023 spending bills ($1.4 trillion), student debt relief ($620 billion), and legislation to support health care for veterans ($520 billion).
    • Biden deficits have also swelled, according to CRFB's analysis, due to executive actions that changed the way food stamp benefits are calculated, expanding Medicaid benefits, and other changes that total $548 billion.

    Between the lines: Deficit politics may return to the forefront of U.S. policy debates next year.

    • Much of Trump's tax law is set to expire at the end of 2025, and the CBO has estimated that fully extending it would increase deficits by $4.6 trillion over the next decade.
    • High interest rates make the taxpayer burden of both existing and new debt higher than it was during the era of near-zero interest rates.
    • And the Social Security trust fund is rapidly hurtling toward depletion in 2033, which would trigger huge cuts in the retirement benefits absent Congressional action.

    What they're saying: "The next president will face huge fiscal challenges," CRFB president Maya MacGuineas tells Axios.

    • "Yet both candidates have track records of approving trillions in new borrowing even setting aside the justified borrowing for COVID, and neither has proposed a comprehensive and credible plan to get the debt under control," she said.
    • "No president is fully responsible for the fiscal challenges that come along, but they need to use the bully pulpit to set the stage for making some hard choices," MacGuineas said.

    With $35 trillion in debt, I am against deficit spending by both parties.

    $305,000,000,000,000 of combined government, business and household deficit. Do you live within a balanced budget, carrying no debt whatsoever? More importantly, will you when you’re replaced and in what year will that be?

    Mayor of Hamtramck, Michigan Amer Ghalib, absolutely rips Kamala Harris for having 'bloodthirsty' Liz Cheney as her top military advisor. Hamtramck is the only Muslim-majority city in the US. Ghalib is warning Muslims that Harris and Cheney would send Americans to fight wars in the Middle East. "The top military advisor of Kamala Harris is Liz Cheney, the bloodthirsty person who advocates for more wars in the Middle East..." "We have so many people in the military, from our community, from the Arab American community, they would want to send them to fight their own people in the Middle East." "President Trump keeps attacking the pro-war radicals, those who are hawks, who are the top military advisor of Kamala Harris, and they want to create more wars in the Middle East." "President Trump appreciated and respected our community like it never happened before. We have a line of communication with the White House if President Trump wins." "Let's not miss out on this opportunity. Vote for President Trump, not for the war hawks."

    My 401(k) is flying high and I will sell all the stocks if Trump wins. He crashed it last time and he will do it again, much faster. He inherited Obama's economy and left it in shreds. I say the worst person in American history.
    No matter who wins, you should take some profit now. Overdue for a correction. Seriously, unless you have 10-15 years to ride out the correction, nothing wrong with selling, putting that cash into fixed income for awhile. Good luck.
    Remember when Trump said we were close a Depression over the summer? That was funny. He's an idiot. 

    Did you read that WSJ I posted? Any thoughts?

    Regarding things costing more, have you considered the fact that the whole world endured the same inflation we did a couple years ago, yet our country has handled it better than anyone else? 

    Source: some smart guy on Twitter:

    "Much of our economic growth in the past 4 years has been driven by deficit spending (more debt).

    A huge portion of that "growth" was just the Fed printing a few trillion $$$ digitally and using various programs to shove those $$$ into the banking system and funding the govt's deficit spending.

    This is not a sustainable policy. It leads to massive inflation and distorts the markets with govt and Fed manipulation"

    Source for below: Bureau of Economic Analysis, Bureau of the Fiscal Service

    Increase in debt since 4Q2000: apprx $8,000,000,000,000

    Increase in GDP since 4Q2000: approx $7,300,000,000,000

    How much deficit spending did the "whole world" do since 4Q2000?



     


     


    Wait a minute....you are suddenly concerned about deficit spending? Are you aware that Trump's proposals will add 3 trillion more to the deficit than Harris'? This is on top of Trump spending  TWICE as much as Biden has.

    YOU ARE VOTING FOR THE WRONG PERSON.

    Data: Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget; Chart: Axios Visuals

    Former President Trump ran up the national debt by about twice as much as President Biden, according to a new analysis of their fiscal track records.

    Why it matters: The winner of November's election faces a gloomy fiscal outlook, with rapidly rising debt levels at a time when interest rates are already high and demographic pressure on retirement programs is rising.

    • Both candidates bear a share of the responsibility, as each added trillions to that tally while in office.
    • But Trump's contribution was significantly higher, according to the fiscal watchdogs at the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget, thanks to both tax cuts and spending deals struck in his four years in the White House.

    By the numbers: Trump added $8.4 trillion in borrowing over a ten-year window, CRFB finds in a report out this morning.

    • Biden's figure clocks in at $4.3 trillion with seven months remaining in his term.
    • If you exclude COVID relief spending from the tally, the numbers are $4.8 trillion for Trump and $2.2 trillion for Biden.

    State of play: For Trump, the biggest non-COVID drivers of higher public debt were his signature tax cuts enacted in 2017 (causing $1.9 trillion in additional borrowing) and bipartisan spending packages (which added $2.1 trillion).

    • For Biden, major non-COVID factors include 2022 and 2023 spending bills ($1.4 trillion), student debt relief ($620 billion), and legislation to support health care for veterans ($520 billion).
    • Biden deficits have also swelled, according to CRFB's analysis, due to executive actions that changed the way food stamp benefits are calculated, expanding Medicaid benefits, and other changes that total $548 billion.

    Between the lines: Deficit politics may return to the forefront of U.S. policy debates next year.

    • Much of Trump's tax law is set to expire at the end of 2025, and the CBO has estimated that fully extending it would increase deficits by $4.6 trillion over the next decade.
    • High interest rates make the taxpayer burden of both existing and new debt higher than it was during the era of near-zero interest rates.
    • And the Social Security trust fund is rapidly hurtling toward depletion in 2033, which would trigger huge cuts in the retirement benefits absent Congressional action.

    What they're saying: "The next president will face huge fiscal challenges," CRFB president Maya MacGuineas tells Axios.

    • "Yet both candidates have track records of approving trillions in new borrowing even setting aside the justified borrowing for COVID, and neither has proposed a comprehensive and credible plan to get the debt under control," she said.
    • "No president is fully responsible for the fiscal challenges that come along, but they need to use the bully pulpit to set the stage for making some hard choices," MacGuineas said.
    With $35 trillion in debt, I am against deficit spending by both parties.
    You brought deficit spending up. You should probably vote for the candidate who plans to add 3 TRILLION less than the other guy. Seems like a big deal to you. Do you think 3 trillion dollars is a lot of money?

    Nothing but love for Muslims from Vance:

    “But where you see actual real religious tyranny is increasingly in Western societies where you’ve had a large influx of immigrants who don’t necessarily assimilate into Western values but try to create, I think, a religious tyranny at the local level,” Vance added. “And if you think that won’t happen at a national level, you’re crazy.”

    Rogan also claimed that there are "activists" in Toronto who "have said our goal is to outbreed everyone who is not Muslim." Vance said that sort of scenario "scares the hell out of me."

    For the first time, election officials in Philadelphia and Montgomery County are publishing a daily-updated list of voters whose mail ballots contain deficiencies.

    If you or someone you know voted by mail in Philadelphia or Montco, you can learn if their ballots were among the nearly 4,000 in those two counties that were flagged for having a problem by using the search tool below. Common problems include missing signatures, incomplete addresses, and missing secrecy envelopes.

    Good news: If you submitted a defective ballot, there’s still time to have your vote counted.

    If you cast your mail ballot in another county, you can find out if your ballot was flagged — or simply learn if it was received and processed — by using the ballot status search tool through the Pennsylvania Department of State.

    If you can’t see or use the search tool above, click here.

    How to fix a deficient mail ballot in Philadelphia

    It is too close to Election Day to request a replacement ballot by mail. City Commissioner Seth Bluestein said voters who wish to correct their ballots should go in-person to City Hill or one of the city’s 10 satellite election offices between now and Election Day, which is Nov. 5. No appointment is necessary. Click here for office address and hours. Voters with disabilities can send a designated agent to pick up their materials by filling out this form.

    For additional information, reach out to one of the county’s three elected commissioners here.

    How to fix a deficient mail ballot in Montgomery County

    After Nov. 1, voters can only cancel and replace their ballots in person. Visit the Montco election office in Norristown or one of the county’s eight satellite offices. No appointment is necessary. Click here for office hours and addresses. The deadline to replace a deficient ballot at these offices is on Monday, Nov. 4. Voters with disabilities can send a designated agent to pick up their voting materials by filling out this form.

    Same with gas prices... It was global but somehow Biden's fault? Just laughable. 
    Speaking of which, what are they down to now? Anyone? Oh, and about that “energy independence?” Permian Basin crude oil is being produced for $35 a barrel and market is around $70-72. And the US is #1 in the world for producing oil. But you know, POOTWH is going to fix the one nation on earth that has gone to hell.

    far left is liberals in canada. the lefties here are fucking conservative where I'm from. haha. you have no idea what far left actually is. 
    Far left is getting yourself banned for 2 weeks and another member getting the thread locked because they attack other posters personally for saying grown men shouldn't get nude in front of children, although it is "legal" in a particular state.  Far left is claiming all women, people of color, and LGBTQ people are suffering from generational trauma (lol) and are victims, all at the hands of the evil white man.  I could go on, but it falls on deaf ears.  Actually, maybe our Canadian posters should stop commenting and obsessing over an American election they can't vote in.  Maybe our Canadian posters can stop making statements about what Americans are like when they don't live here and only know what they see from the sensationalist media on their computers.   Best yet, since our Canadian posters care about victims so much, maybe they should spend their time focusing on Canada's missing and murdered indigenous women problem.

    Yes, I was a staunch Lib. Not anymore.  That doesn't mean I am voting Republican however.  I still care about human rights more than anything, but Dems can take their creation of a victimhood society and fuck off.

    i haven't seen anybody on here promoting grown men getting nude in front of children. and based on the generational trauma thing, i don't think i have seen anybody say that about all people in those populations. sure there are some, but not all. 

    i do stand by my prior post that based on your recent posts here i can't envision you ever being a staunch anything. let alone a staunch liberal. 

    it is funny you blame the liberals for victimhood society when the maga movement is entirely based on victimhood and unfairness.
