#Biden #Economy #2024Election
UMMMMMM what we want to hear about is better paying jobs that more accurately reflect the correlation between productivity and wages. We are not nearly as stupid as you think.
Dont care if you keep losing as long as you fight. Sad.
The idea of voting for either Biden / Harris or Trump makes me sick.
If you take a look at the breakdown of the jobs report, high end service sector jobs such as tech, engineering, consulting, banking, finance, are ALL shrinking. Of course the leisure and hospitality jobs are increasing, which is great for lower income folks. But US is an advanced economy, which means unfortunately we don’t compete on the international stage by waiting tables. The overall edge of the US economy is weakening and we aren’t doing enough to reverse that trend.
Them GOP never saw biden coming and they sadly still don’t. They underestimate him and see him as weak, but behind the scenes, hes crushing it.
Well with Republicans totally absent any actual policies and only interested in cultural wars nothing can be done to change their votes. Meanwhile running on the economy is the best way for the Democrats to go after any swing votes available.
If you have the capacity to be openly cruel and distort reality the GOP wants you. The cruelty is the policy. It creates drama and excitement which Republicans desperately need in their lives.
Fighter, fascist … tomato, tomaahto
Funny that the DNC had complete control of congress and the White House for two years and yet nothing was done about what the voters care about. Where as the previous president kept his promises and delivered
GOP voters want to know if you are a fighter and will fight the crazy liberal ideas.
‘Bidenomics’ is made up. It’s a talking point. He has no clear economic policy. The economy is happening around him but not because of him.
Fascist Republicans don’t want fighters they want insurrectionists intent on ending Democracy.
“They want to know you see the threat coming from Washington” “They want to know you’re a fighter” “they don’t care about policy” all of these mean “they hate liberal Americans and want them attacked irrespective of any reason.
Bread and circuses. Except these idiots don’t understand – refuse to open their eyes and see! – that their daily bread is being stolen from them and they have only circuses left!
I think DeSantis is more beige than Pencebot. Hard to believe that’s even possible.
They want to know you are a mean D* ck…..it’s all about bullying and cruelty….Group Of Pigs…
They want LIARS
No, they want someone who will lie to them
Fighter huh? But then complains about how high gas price is? You can’t have it both ways. It is either you care about policies or you don’t?
So, in other words, style over substance.
Jobs jobs Jobs Jobs 🤔 better pay? 🤔 then why can’t we afford anything? Fuel, food, home energy costs, houses, insurance and just wait for the tax hikes to come that is going to pay for the infrastructure bill, chips act, Ukraine and the rest of the socialist spending.
GOP: Poo flingers welcome…thinkers and ethicists NOT!
The problem with US politics is the guy who appears to fight for your side the most is never going to be a moderate, as agreement, reasonableness, and compromise are seen as weakness. Everything is us vs them. My side vs evil.
People are woke and see it’s not about growing minds but using their anger and playing us for fools. Republicans don’t care about Americans they care only for defending their rights to fight Americans inch by inch. Keep all the food and money and guns to defend their family.🛑🛑🛑
LOL! Republican Party is the Clear & Present Threat to our Institutions, Law & Order, National Security. The GOP’s whistle blower is a Chinese Agent, GOP Indict them self’s. What more do you need lol! And Ron DeSantis isn’t for the people when he marginalizing everyone in his own state; who is picking the produce now? NO ONE! They are not fighters for We The People, there purpose is self serving FOR there Cronies. Ron DeSantis is just as bad as Trump, Racist Bigot!
The Republican Party proudly present the most deranged, detestable candidates America has to offer financed by billionaire fascists: You could be a total nut job with fringe conspiracy ideas sprinkled with some silly religious passages, and you can get elected just by having an (R) next to your name. The best part is that there are many Americans who will vote for these screwballs. Either they want to be like that or they are already a mirror image of their candidates.
Desantis has a whiny voice, like Hillary. It’s hard to believe anyone was afraid of him.
Tightening doesn’t contribute to inflation. It reduces growth in order to reduce inflation. Chuck Todd could buy a clue
These rubes are all Democrats and just badmouth their opposition.
Republican voters have to stop beleiveing the misinformation, they`ve become the very definition of stupid!! Maybe it`s what they choose too beleive rather than do the fact finding, sad!!!
Obviously….
I’m gonna guess if you did a survey, there’s a strong overlap with MAGA Republicans and WWE Wrestling fans. They don’t understand politics, civics, economics, science, math, economics, literature, journalism, or the arts, etc. All they understand is the smackdown. They just want the 10-second thrill of watching their enemy get smashed over the head with a chair. It’s all dopamine and adrenaline.
God yes! If only everyone would vote blue! A straight DEM ticket in 2024! Maybe then the rest of the USA could start to look like San Francisco!
The process of fixing this entire train wreck is under way . How do you pay for causing such chaos in America ? Payday is coming for these people who thought they could waltz right in and take over America. All yall are soon to be toast with the burners set on high by the Law of these United States. Run Through the Jungle by Creedance Clearwater . :O)
My mother told me people that want to “ fight” all the time are trashy. She had a point
There are things worth fighting for your family, the planet and human rights.
What exactly would a politician be a fighter for if not policy???
The GOP has the same agenda as the Talibans. To think that American went to war against them to protect Afghanistan from their religious zealotry and evilness. That exact same evil is as the root of all GOP policies.
What if the cause they’re fighting for is to take away your healthcare, de-educate your children, run you in the bankruptcy and turn you into a wage slave?
Well that’s what happens when you’re too dense to actually understand policy.
Slapstick comedy as politics. Eat your heart out Jerry Lewis.
That’s right Republicans care only about white identity, Grand Obstruction Party
No, just need to actually be A PATRIOT!!!
SOMETHING THE LEFT DOESNT BELLIEVE IN
They fight the culture war for two reasons. One, they’re bigots. Two, they have no policies and don’t care about governing. They care about power.
DeathSantis can say any mouthful of B.S. he wants, Because he has no fear of losing his Gov. Job his supermajority congress changed policy to protect him😂😂😂😂
Ah yes, a fighter. For the interests of a pocketful of billionaires, of course.
We Republicans don’t care about having a job, feeding our families. Have a strong country, or Medicare and Medicaidfor our parents and grandparents. All we care about is Hunter Biden’s laptop. We are a bunch of white supremest who is afraid of blacks, and we want all of the non white peoples kicked out of our country.
If you didnt know the republican party was going to go off the deep end, after Obama got elected. Where have you been, how old are you, and do you keep your head in the sand.
Republicans have the cheating and gerrymandering on their side
DeSantis is deluding himself. He thinks Florida is safe. It is not.
Rump isn’t a fighter. He’s certainly not fighting for his constituents. He’s only fighting to keep himself out of jail.
Correction; ‘they want to know you are a hater.’
Im just here for the stupid liberal comments…
And man you guys never disappoint 🍿
The Republican Party / the GOP consists of a majority of Fascists financed by a minority of extremely rich white Christians with fascist ideologies.
Hence, it is not about the Law, it is about power and all ethics are secondary, corruption, violence and manipulation are their tools.
Shmucky Todd and his clown show!
Nobody ever talks about how little these commentators do to add to society 😂
The GOP don’t have a policy if they did they would have to be held to account.
Tax breaks for the wealthy and deregulation.
We do care about policy, that’s why we are mad as conservatives. The uniparty is destroying the country.
More people voting with their feet and departing blue states and going to red states.
democRATS
Perfect example of ignorance on parade. Meet the press has been a non entity for several years.
Think you all are blind and deaf, don’t believe anthing that spills out of your mouths.
someone in the Democratic party needs to harp constantly how inflation is WORLD problem and we are the best of EVERYBODY. also, be little more like Bernie and point out corporate GREED where every big company is paying ZERO taxes and record-breaking profits up 30% (the number equal to the supposed ‘inflation’)
No legacy media bias here! What a joke NBC has become.
Negative MSM, the PROGRESSIVE party doesn’t care if your not interested in policies, because your the party pushing ideologies, the Conservatives aren’t interested in your agendas or misinformation which is the opposite of reality. Tell the truth, do some REAL journalism research and you’d be so excited to learn, you’ve been indoctrinated and brainwashed! There is a reckoning coming!
♟we control the shift 🌎
They want “fighters” who will side with Putin against Ukraine, side with white nationalists against American citizens who are minorities, side with Jan 6th insurrectionists against the police who defended the constitution. They don’t want good things for America, they want power and to oppress and punish everyone they don’t like (and side with criminals like Putin and neoNazis who share their values).
Amna Nawaz must be thrilled to be part of this roundtable …
They want to know you’re a *grifter.* #BloodworkFraudGirl got 11 years prison. #TrumpU_FoundationFraudster got 4 years Prez. Bannon even stole their holy grail Wall money, and they… love him *MORE.*
#Cuckservatives, lol.
Listen to these Democrats – still going after Trump and Republican voters, trashing them as stupid. Not bad for morons who elected Biden. They have no interest or concerns about him receiving bribes from the Chinese Communists, from Rumanian criminals, from Ukrainian criminals. They go on and on about Trump stealing documents, the ones he can legally take and keep as the President , the Presidential Records Act . Trouble is, Biden took more documents than Trump, and as VP , he took them illegally. They either don’t care or are so corrupt that it just seems OK. The media coverage of all of this is truly disgusting and criminal. The performance of DOJ and FBI is just so dangerous, corrupted to the core and compromised. A new whistleblower appears, an Israeli man who was at the meetings between CEFC a Chinese power company, a front for the Chinese Communist Party, and the Bidens. He knows everything, the names , dates, the money and the transaction. The FBI wants to lock him up, as a Chinese spy and an arms dealer. Trouble is , Hunter Biden was the other side if that transaction – is he a Chinese spy then ? The media followed the usual routine – smear the whistleblower, announce that Republicans are now in bed with a Chinese spy, therefore his evidence is nonsense. That’s how scared Democrats are of this man. He is in hiding, but will testify. If / when he does, a lot of people are going to jail, and they’re all Democrats. He’s in hiding, because he doesn’t want suffer the same fate as Epstein – suicide ??
Neither would not bleed for God and country. Chicken hawks.
They want fascism for you, and absolute freedom for themselves. An oxymoron.
Just like the Russians with Putin. “We want a strong leader to oppress us!”
A fighter to destroy democracy for JESUS! ✝✝❤❤💙💙🤍🤍✝✝ Not God’s plan so Biden won, right! LOL!😂😂🤣🤣🎈🎈
AND THAT’S A TOTAL, DISGRACE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! BECAUSE THE GOP, CAN’T DO, ANY BETTER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! BECAUSE THEY ARE TOO DAMNED BUSY, YEARNING, FOR THE BAD OLD, DAYS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I would vote for democrats in a heartbeat if they would do two things 1) uphold the right to bear arms to the same level of oversight as the first amendment gets.
2) stop dividing us with identity politics. The republicans are dividing us enough without the dems jumping in to divide us along race as well.
Republicans have lost the plot and should be disregarded when they speak. Republicans bring nothing of value to the table and are, in fact, a net negative on our society.
Maybe less fighting and more working.
Trump followers want someone they can identify with, someone that hates others not like them, a bigot or a racist. Most insurrectionists were driven by fear of being replaced by minorities. Racism is the overiding issue, everthing else is simply a peripheral issue, not a root cause.
VOTE BLUE ALL THE WAY 🇺🇸💙💯
Culture wars will be lost on the right wing Republcans. Americans actually, hold on, young & old, like diversity! Surprise!!
VOTE BLUE 💙🇺🇸💯
WHAT CULTURE WAR?
Dwayne Elizondo Mountain Dew Camacho for president 2024. He’s got this guy with a peanut like head called Not Sure who is going to fix all of our problems….and he’s going to do this all in one week. Brando for life! It’s got electrolytes!
The corporate media and the President of Mexico are responsible for the ills of society.-Ron Desantis
They are doing exactly what the left wants. Infighting and splitting votes. Keep hating each other republicans!
In other words: performative cruelty works on the average GOP supporter. This is unsurprising.
“They want to know you’re a fighter.”
Translation: they want to know you’re going to hurt the people they don’t like.
In a recent survey Americans were asked if corp media was responsible for the division in America, 75% agreed and, nbc, guess who is leading the way? This doesnt include your twisted affiliate msnbc, as theyre not considered to be a legit news source, but then again America is questioning nbc as well.
I don’t recall a time republicans ever cared about policy.
GOP all war monger screws
The only policy we need is to JAIL LIBERAL’S!
GOP Policy: Deregulation, and cutting taxes (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0TnfbcTzpaI) which by the way were good economic policy. Cutting the social safety net, securing the border, ending affirmative action, banning CRT and gender ideology in schools. Banning gender “affirming” care, which even though I do not have kids, I agree with because kids are not mature enough to make life changing decisions like changing genders; oh speaking of which, banning biological men from women’s sports.
A fighter for the control of school subjects and books, a fighter against corporations and the woke mob like the imaginary ANTIFA, smite the gays and trans, save the unborn and make those of lesser means work for their aid.
What’s the point of a fighter if you have no policy to fight for? Other than making life more miserable for the “others”.
Love these OPINION shows
They don’t care about any policy just if you are part of the Trump MAGA cult or not.
They want to know you hate the same people they do and are willing to use the power of government to make the lives of “those people” worse instead of their own lives better.
I’ve been around lighting grids my entire career and that is the strangest painted lighting grid I have ever seen.
I don’t want someone who can make the tough decisions. I want someone who can make the right decisions.
Without a policy, what is there to fight for?
Please find real Republicans that know what Conservatives are looking for. We want A politician that is not bought and paid for like Biden and DeSantis.
