All you are telling me is that Trumptards are financially imbeciles. I know a particular Trumptard that will be foreclosed on if I don't loan him $20,000. I told him last year I was only gonna loan him $20,000 this one time and that the next lump sum of $20,000 he needs to find somebody, not me, to give him the loan. In the previous 12 months, he repaid me only $1,000, breaking his agreement. Now it is crunch time because the idiot expected me to once again bail him out because he refuses to think ahead, since that limits his freedom to do as he pleases. He blames Biden. I blame the Trumptard for what happened to the Trumptard.

No. That's what you're telling me. And as always, whatever you're yapping on about is pure bullshit.

But thanks for playing though.

You know it's bad when NPR has to tell the truth about it...


NPR: U.S. home prices have far outpaced paychecks.

US shoppers tighten their belts in a most unlikely place: the grocery store
Food sales contract as inflation takes a bite out of consumers’ wallets

It's probably good for all of you... fatties.

We can add that to Joe Biden*'s list of ACTUAL accomplishments.

Not only did he screw up the economy so bad that interest rates are higher than they've been since I was in Kindergarten. And all that Venture Capital dried up so Hollywood is in a world of hurt, trash Lefty entertainment websites and magazines have had massive layoffs if not shuttered their doors forever and DEI departments at surviving companies have been dismantled and removed even at the largest companies who were just so proud of them after some random dude named George Floyd died of a fentanyl overdose.

Those are all great things that would never have happened if Joe Biden* lost the election in 2020.


Now we might possibly be able to add "Saved 50 Million Americans from full blown Type II Diabetes" because people can't afford shit food anymore.

We've got over 97 Million Americans over the age of 17 waddling all around, having no clue that they're one Cinnabon away from taking pills for the rest of their lives, not to mention the unknown tens of millions of children under the age of 18 with prediabetes who we haven't been counting.

Maybe this forced change of spending habits could save them from a disease they aren't even aware they're inflicting upon themselves?


Doubtful...

At least half of them are probably cutting out the healthy stuff and still loading the carts up with all the junk that they're addicted to.

CNN: Americans felt shakier about the economy in June

Quote:

more than one-third of them reported concern about making ends meet in the next seven to 12 months.


Mostly Democrat voters at the bottom of the income scale.

Uh Oh, Joe*.

Just wait until they get that first gas bill before the election after you banned Russia's natural gas.

CNN: 39% of Americans worry they can’t pay the bills

https://www.cnn.com/2024/07/23/business/inflation-cost-of-living-cnn-p
oll/index.html



Oh boy! You mean that you can't actually put food in people's mouths, or pay their rent/mortgages, or keep them from being swallowed whole by their interest payments with constant gaslighting?

Ya don't say?




Quote:

Even higher percentages of Latino (52%) and Black (46%) Americans said they’re worried most or all of the time about making ends meet, according to the poll.

More than half (55%) of those making less than $50,000 a year similarly worry about having enough money to meet expenses.



I see that a very large portion of that final percentage is among THREE LARGEST GROUPS THAT DEMOCRATS USED TO REPRESENT.

So that would mean, conversely, among the college "educated" white crowd making over $55k per year, that number is quite a bit lower than 39% of the people worrying about their future, in general.

It's almost as if college "educated" white Democrat voters with high-wage jobs who ingest nothing but Trump-hating media every day weren't even aware of any of these problems for the last 3.5 years. I wonder if anybody ever told them before?

Ahhhhhh.... to be young and dumb and be living that semi-charmed life with nothing but First-World problems to complain about to your psychiatrist twice a month again. You truly are living the dream, aren't cha?

I would advise you to do your best to savor it before the A.I. takes it all away from you, but that's just not human nature. You're not going to miss it until it's gone, and only then is the reality of everything going to truly sink in for you. Ask me how I know.

For a large portion of you, no matter what age-bracket you fall into, when those layoffs hit and you struggle hard to find anything similar to replace that missing income because there isn't anything similar out there for you, it will be the first time in your life that you're finally forced grow up.

Allow me to be the first person to preemptively welcome you all into adulthood. Those of you not in the 1% who haven't yet made your way there already are very likely to in the not-so-distant future.



It's so strange to see CNN educating them on the real situation here this late in the race, innit?






I feel the most sorry for their kids. I forecast a very large uptick in the divorce rate among college "educated" white families in our country's future.
