Typical lame deflection from a Trumpie.

Your unrealized potential will be compounded in the next generation. We have been going through this shift since Reagan and his BS, and Trump has only made it worse, as you will soon enough discover for yourself.

Opportunities for people have stagnated for decades, the people's standard of living has been declining. The very angst and disappointment that drives the working class to support 'burn down the house' Trump has been caused by the Republicans and their core philosophy of protecting and enabling the rich to rape our country. Trump is, if anything, worse than Reagan was and the process accelerates. Trump and his billionaire cabinet has been using the same playbook, and has you people bamboozled. The new tax breaks for the rich are threatening our people's future.

Sadly ... when Trump, Ross, DeVos and those other greedy billionaires have gone to answer for themselves with their maker, the people left behind will still be living with the consequences of their greed.

It's time to wake up and smell the covfefe

Precisely! It has been alarming to watch how many people here cannot even communicate without histrionics. I used to love autumn spewing hatred with every post.

Ah, the King of Debt probably likes that. Wait until more tariffs kick in.....!!!

"Company ownership, equity shares in both public and private firms, has been sliding for the upper middle class too. The share of equity ownership for those in the 50th percentile to the 90th percentile of net worth has fallen. The top one percent of Americans owns the majority of shares."

Ah, as it should be. Bow to the Kings!

BTW, for those of you who think "I have it good, I'm in or near the top 1%"......that would be a net worth of about 11 Million dollars or more. If any regular cruisers of this forum are in that category, they should be here for entertainment.
Not ANOTHER DISTORTION from the "news".

" the Federal Reserve suggests"

Show us the ACTUAL quote from the fed that say, " "Bottom 90% - YES - 90% Suffer under Trump - Says Fed"

NOT what Bloomberg says.

If anyone thinks this is suffering, they are brain damaged. Americans have it better than most people around the world can imagine. Feel free to move to Somalia or Venezuela if you want an education on what real human suffering is. The fact that so many Americans have no clue what suffering is says something about how good we have it. Be thankful.

"acting like a moron."


Those that cast the insult re usually the ones GUILTY of the insult", as they say.

I think the fact that a person like T is President is very disconcerting to many. It can shake ones reality. He isn't normal and it's obviously scary. Not sure what the answer is. I only think he'll play a large part in his own undoing. One can only be so cocky, arrogant and full of bluster...without consequences. Pride goeth before a fall.

My investments are up. My real estate business is doing well. There is building going on everywhere which feeds into the positive economy. I was out shopping yesterday and the stores were packed with consumers. it seems that everyone that wants to work is working.



The 99% in my area are doing rather well. I don't know who the OP is referring to?



I'd say that MAGA is a positive and despite what the attempts by the Left to tear it all down America is doing well.
