Everyone has to eat. Everyone’s prices have gone up. No one suggested we all have an equal amount of money or had the same exact opportunities. How on earth do you know how much vetting there’s been on any network? CNN and MSNBC are extensions of the Dem Party at this point. Neither mentioned the 800,000 Job hoax Just doesn’t fit their narrative
It's an adjustment that happens every year. It's not a hoax. CNN has 3 articles related to it. MSNBC has one. I just searched them both. I rarely read CNN and I never read MSNBC.

A blanket statement to just look in your wallet does not account for the differences you mentioned, and frankly, ignores them.

Like you're not just listening to different media with even less vetting. And how much of a bubble must you live in to assume everyone has the same experience looking into their wallet?

Once upon a time, people like you thought "colored" was too PC and shouldn't be taken seriously. You can choose to spell out Black, Indigenous, and People of Color if you like. I prefer to abbreviate it. It's not going anywhere.
Whether you spell it out or use the abbreviation, it is stupid and only woke morons use the term. And they are not to be taken seriously.

Most Americans say that they were doing better under Trump. Most Americans view Trump as more favorable for the economy than Harris. The left and the msm are working overtime trying to convince those Americans that they are wrong. The AP is pretty much Vox at this point.
People just need to quit listening to the media, open their eyes, and wallet. That’ll tell you everything you need to know.

We had Obama for 8 years, Trump for 4, and Biden (Obama) the last 4 years. Yet everything that's wrong is due to the one guy sandwiched between a run of Democrat dominance.

The powers to be have to sit there and marvel at how stupid so many are. "Let's push this old, senile, memory losing crook out and see if they bite on him being the leader. Hide the VP from them too. She's worse than Biden is."

"Holy shit, they're buying what the media says!!"

That article is very laughable. Though it references the pandemic, it does not point out that the pandemic was a big reason why some of the things Trump takes credit for, weren't able to take full effect. Whether they would have or not is speculation. Add to the fact, he lost the election and Biden undid almost everything and imposed his own economic policies that have been terrible for the country.
You yourself whittled President Trump's greatness down to 7 months, excusing everything else as someone or something else's fault. 🤣

And of course, daring to say something is not 100% one way is way too radical in your book. :rolleyes:

Pretty unimportant fact check that doesn't change the points being made. And I won't bother fact checking your claim that billionaires got rich by working with the nazis.

Anyone who uses the term BIPOC, is not to be taken seriously.
No, no, no. I didn't claim billionaires got rich working with Nazis. I was extending your analogy. I said so in the exact same sentence.

Accuracy is important, especially when your inaccuracy is intended to mislead and deceive. You know, lie. You know very well the prospect of 80k more agents going after Republicans only is a fictional horror story many will fall for, just like the one about parents chopping off little kids' genitals on Tuesday because they arbitrarily decided it on Monday.

You're parroting President Trump himself, who is well known for hyperbole and straight-up lies. The truth is much more complicated and mixed.

Fact-checking that 80k+ number: 20-30k are new positions, the rest filling expected vacancies; the term "agent" refers to the auditing sector, and very few are that, not "many"; about 1/8 of all IRS employees are "agents."

If you wanna use a Nazi analogy, the evil billionaires are the ones who worked with the Nazis, not who hid the Jews. That's how they got rich. A single billionaire's tax cheating probably equals a bigger fish than all the tip cheaters put together.

However, as BIPOC know, if a law doesn't specify who it is targeting, it will ultimately target the so-called little guy, so just like a domestic terrorism law won't actually target white nationalists unless it specifically says so, vague targeting of tax cheats will ultimately hit tipped employees, small businesses, etc, not billionaires, so you're right about that... up until the point they specify tipped employees' being exempt.

Just to divert from the conversation a little bit and address this. It is interesting. The first two years of Trump were clouded by fake accusations of collusion. Then there was a 7 month period that had a hint of stability. And then covid. Yet, every single demographic benefited from Trump’s presidency, financially. In the 12 years outside of Trump’s term, only the elite have benefited. It's almost as if someone is lying to us.

What's ironic about Harris copying Trump's no tax on tips, is her regime hired 80,000+ IRS agents, many in the auditing sector. To focus on unreported income. Which the vast majority of unreported income comes from middle wage employees who are not reporting all of their tips. Not evil millionaires or billionaires who are audited like they are hiding Jews from the Nazis in the 1930's.

So let’s see. We’ve had 8 years of Obama, 4 more years of Obama, sorry Biden/Harris

Labor participation rate increased dramatically in 2017. Following an 11 year drop. It continued to increase until 2020 when covid hit. After the economy opened back up, there was a brief spike in labor participation. Since then, it has decreased again. To play apples to apples with Trump era revisions to this regime's revisions is completely dishonest. One was great numbers being revised to really good numbers. The other was poor numbers being revised to atrocious numbers.
Bingo. I didn’t think it was worth typing all of that out. But to continue. It was historic lows in every marginalized group’s unemployment rates in their history under Trump.

So let’s see. We’ve had 8 years of Obama, 4 more years of Obama, sorry Biden/Harris, and they want us to subscribe to at least 4 more years of the same, but according to our current VP Harris, she will correct everything on day 1 of her new presidency. Can’t right now of course, bc she’s “just the last person the president asks before making a decision,” but then she can definitely do it. It’s not like they see eye to eye on every policy. Oh wait, the press secretary said they do just last week. Well that’s awkward. So which is it. Everything is great but you insist everything will change for the better when she gets in office, or, you’re linked to everything that’s already amazing in the current administration that 2/3 of America say is heading in the wrong direction? Interesting questions to answer. Of course she won’t answer any questions bc she’s going with the same basement strategy of her “current” boss’s campaign four years ago. But I’m sure a person who got zero votes, got hand picked for the presidential ticket, will protect democracy.
