[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]S&P 500 is at an all time high, LA protests have calmed down. If the ceasefire in Iran holds these numbers are going to look much different in a few weeks. Don’t get to cocky Dems. It’s the economy stupid. [/quote]

We don't need to be cocky--or do anything at all. We can just sit back and continue to watch the dotard sabotage himself--and endanger the country--due to his incompetence, ignorance, and mental health issues. It is what it is. [/quote]

This dotard just had people fawning over him at a NATO meeting and even people like Joe Scarborough are acting like he’s a military genius. The S&P is at all time highs and we’ve collected $75 billion in tariff revenue this year and I have noticed hardly any substantive price changes when I shopping, especially compared to the increases from 2022-2024.

At a certain point Americans aren’t going to be able to convinced the economy is in shambles when every indicator says the opposite. And all that matters is the economy.[/quote]

[b]Grocery prices are up 20%...I guess you shop somewhere special.[/b]
the $75 B in tariff revenue can also be cast as "US Consumers have paid $75B additional taxes so far this year"

What do you think will be the drag on the economy and corresponding losses as this mounts?[/quote]

Again. Stop lying. We can all use the internet.

[quote]Inflation ticked higher in May but was more stable than expected as the early effects of President Donald Trump’s wide-ranging tariffs were offset by another drop in gasoline prices.

Rent inflation, a big driver of price increases the past couple of years, fell to a more than three-year low.

Consumer prices increased 2.4% from a year earlier, up from a four-year low of 2.3% the previous month, according to the Labor Department’s consumer price index, a measure of average changes in goods and services costs. But the rise was was more modest than expected and resulted from a larger gap with the year-ago figure.[/quote]

To sum it up. Tariffs have had a minor influence on inflation but are not nearly as bad as expected. Rent is down, which matters for people out of ritzy DCUM land. Wages are up too and the S&P is nearing historic highs too btw.

Please tell me how this is bad for Trump.[/quote]

Because he chickened out from actually implementing the tariffs he intended to. So your point is not a point. [/quote]

DP to add, dropping inflation and rent prices started before Trump. It was Sept, 2024, last year, that the Fed cut by a half point. We are doing well because Trump did not change much in the end, thankfully, so the existing trends from prior to Trump continue. I personally would still like to see the Dow gain back the 2000 points it lost since Trump took office. My 401k would respond nicely. Yes, I know the Dow is not the economy. [/quote]
