New polling out of Monmouth shows Biden beating Trump even if Manchin runs 3rd party. https://thehill.com/homenews/campaign/4108696-poll-shows-biden-beating-trump-even-if-manchin-runs/
The Hill lost me when they said it was a bipartisan ticket. Manchin is the definition of DINO. If you want to ruin Biden you cannot use Manchin or someone so blatantly conservative. It seems more like the rich actually think Manchin is liked by the poors because the rich sniff their own farts. However, they can split the crazy and moderate faction of the reps by7 running the guy who is clearly helping Biden to play progressive by making sure nothing ever passes but corporate handouts.
You'd never think you'd see the words Hillary Clinton and too much head in one sentence, but here we are.
Correct. I’m glad you have finally learned the basic economic concept of Real Wages (wages adjusted for inflation).
Parody of George Clinton should be Gaslight. More at the link. https://www.cnbc.com/amp/2024/02/13...-the-annual-rate-moved-to-3point1percent.html
So you understand that the inflation rate fell from Dec to Jan, just not as much as some economists had expected?
Yes I understand that. It doesn’t change the fact that prices are still high, wages can’t outpace inflation, we have less purchasing power and inflation may have gone down, but that’s from an a high of 8% when old Joe took office.
FUCKING CHRIST!!! AS I JUST EXPLAINED TO YOUR DUNCE COMPATRIOT EIGHT FUCKING POSTS AGO REAL WAGES ARE WAGES ADJUSTED FOR INFLATION YOU ECONOMIC IGNORAMUS! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Real_wages?wprov=sfti1
Here’s a little piece I call Conversations Around the Country “Hey dad, I got a raise today!” “Yes son, but you still live with us because you can’t afford an apartment because the rent is too high and you can’t afford a house because of the interest rates. You also can’t afford milk, eggs or oatmeal. Your raise is basically meaningless.” “You know who would have done something about all that, Bernie Sanders” “First of all, son the DNC rigged the election against him in 2016 and second of all, he sold out to the DNC in 2020 because his wife was about to go to jail.” “So what, you’re going to vote for Trump?! “No son, I’m either going to stay home or maybe vote for RFK Jr. FJB.”
That's Conversations With The Intelligent Version Of FF That He Imagines He Is. And it's pure fiction. Both the story and the presumption of intelligence.
Says the kid that completely dodged the FACT that he didn’t know the very VERY basic concept of real wages (that had already been explained to another dunce eight posts earlier!) and instead made up a fairy tale for folks to argue with. And is now butthurt no one wants to play imagination land. Do you or do you not acknowledge that for the median worker wages minus inflation are now higher than pre pandemic? Just to save us some time: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Median?wprov=sfti1
Yes wages went up. Wages also went up under Trump whether you believe it or not. The difference is purchasing power and the fact that spending continues to contribute to inflation. All of that Ukraine money makes things worse.
Deflection and dodging are only needed if your opponent is capable of hitting the target. And I do deny that you are, so you're just getting the one D tonight. For a change.
It means fudging the numbers to make it look like the economy is doing good when it isn’t and hoping there’s enough dupes that believe it so I get re-elected.
JESUS FUCKING CHRIST! FUCK! FUCK! HOW MANY TIMES DOES REAL WAGES HAVE TO BE EXPLAINED TO YOU! THE MEDIAN HOURLY WORKER HAS MORE PURCHASING POWER THAN BEFORE THE PANDEMIC! FUCK! DID YOU READ THE FUCKING FIRST FUCKING PARAGRAPH OF THE WIKIPEDIA ARTICLE I PROVIDED?!?!? Real wages are wages adjusted for inflation, or, equivalently, wages in terms of the amount of goods and services that can be bought. This term is used in contrast to nominal wages or unadjusted wages. wages in terms of the amount of goods and services that can be bought WHAT THE FUCK DO YOU THINK THAT MEANS?!?!?!
FF hates Trump though. Has to pretend he doesn't know what words mean to buy Trump's flunkies lies, but he's not a Trump guy. Nope. Perish that thought.
I think it was @Raoul the Red Shirt or maybe @tafkats asking if he is willfully ignorant due to hyper-partisan bias or just fucking stupid and this conversation is leading me to the latter.
