How do you explain all the black and brown people that voted for him?


Just like the white voters: low-info/irrational


Aren’t these the people you are fighting for & “saving” though? What idiots they are for fkg up your missionary cause that looks so good on your kid’s Ivy application. Damn them and their crime-ridden neighborhoods where police don’t bother coming when you call. Damn their hungry kids attending shit schools with no Model UN or ski trips. Damn that mold-filled apartment with no heat and damn their 3 jobs that still don’t make rent. Morons. Listen to Jennifer from her gated community. Of course she knows best.


Day drinking isn't a good look for you. Try again when you are sober.


Your disdain for the people you claim to support as well as your lack of constructive rebuttal are embarrassingly evident. Maybe say nothing until you come up with something to parrot from TikTok or twitter, mmmkay.

They don’t suck. They got conned.


Again with the "I know better than you" bs. That's why you LOST. People are sick and tired of this.


It’s embarrassing to be proven stupid, isn’t it? Mortgage rates already going up. You really showed us!
.


I’m no Trump advocate, but this bs is why we lost. Mortgage rates have been rising -again- for the last 7 weeks. And the Fed hit pause today since the markets are on fire. That’s all we have today, folks. But fear not, I’m sure there is plenty of time for the catastrophic destruction you are salivating for.


Mortgage rates are going up because bond yields are going up. Bond yields are going up because of our debt and deficit. They started rising before the election because Harris was proposing $3 trillion of extra deficit spending and Trump was proposing $10 trillion of extra deficit spending.

But you're right. Let it play out.


But why listen to all of the economists saying this when we can be angry and vote for the guy with several bankruptcies?

They just don't get it.

Rebuttal to what exactly? Someone nutter's ranting that has no basis in reality?

Black people are not saints. They can be low-info and irrational, just like white people.

Fortunately, most black people did not succumb to the misinformation (hello, most white people - you did!) and voted for the most rational choice.

Rather than being earnest about solving the problem he prolonged it and used it as a wedge issue for purely partisan purposes.

Can you show me where I'm wrong, or did you just not know about any of this?


Biden took a host of actions on Day 1 to increase illegal immigration. That "border bill" would have rewarded illegals with a legal status and was in no way a solution. Biden could have revoked his Day 1 acts at any time and chose not to. Everyone knows Dems want unlimited illegal immigration into the US. They present no limiting principle and punish no one for violating this nation's laws and sovereignty.

Inflation is a bigger issue, but it's linked to illegal immigration because the aliens are getting checks without commensurate economic production. More money chasing the same good yields higher prices. Neither elected Republicans, who also favor illegal immigration, nor Democrats will tell the truth. The really sad part is the media cannot help but lie at every opportunity, so it also will not tell the truth about the consequences of illegal immigration.

Trump is a dumb pig. The fact he was the best candidate reflects how far the US has fallen.


I disagree. Dems do not want open borders and unlimited illegal immigration. No Dem I know does. But the problem was that they were ineffective and incoherent on their messaging on it, ineffective on legislation, and completely got drowned out, outmaneuvered and sabotaged by Republicans at every turn.

As for inflation, getting rid of every last illegal would barely make a dent in it and it's going to get a whole lot worse if Trump follows through with his blanket tariffs.


No, the problem is their actions were crystal clear about wanting more illegal aliens in the country. Many Dem voters do not support unlimited immigration in theory; however, the same voters continue to reelect politicians who put no limitations on illegal immigration. It's an action problem, not a messaging one.

If there are millions of illegal aliens getting money (directly via EBT or indirectly via housing subsidies), then deporting them would decrease prices immediately.

Judge them by their actions, not words. They used parole and CPB One to let in millions.


Correct, but Dems won't admit this and delude themselves into believing it's a a problem with messaging.

Neither candidate was going to fix the debt issue. The US has record levels of tax income. The problem is spending.

So. Trump will stop the illegal immigrants from coming in to the country and deport the ones who are here. Why are you still complaining. It will all be fixed by March.

The election is over. The guy who proposed $10 trillion in new deficit spending and has a history of defaulting on his debt is the guy who won. It's up to the bond market now. There is nothing you or I can do except watch it play out.

Yes. Already MAGA is whining that it’s not fair to expect him to accomplish anything. And that everyone needs to work with him. He has all three branches.
