This was expected. It’s supposed to make a huge jump when the tariffs start in.

JPMORGAN: The “backpedaling” on China has cut the odds of recession “back to below 50%” — but “we still see the risks skewed to the downside given the damage already done to confidence and the risks that the trade war and other US policies (fiscal, .. regulatory) are not as friendly as hoped for.”

We all want the wars to end, right? Or are you hoping that it’s timed to align with midterms? Regardless, it’ll be a blue wave (again).


We all want wars to end, but MAGa seems to want Russia to in the war in Ukraine (which if they do, will simply mean Russia moves on to the Baltics and Poland next)

+1 The war should end when Russia pulls out. Would MAGA just give in so that there's no more war? I guess that's Trump's version of "winning". I mean.. look at his trade war with China. He thinks we won but really, we all lost.

Traveling is cheaper now because lots of foreigners don't want to come to the US, but also domestically, people are still wary of the economy.

But basic living expenses are still up: food, insurance, medical care..


The reports linked in this thread show that groceries and egg prices are down not up.

Obamacare fixed all insurance issues, we were told. He solved it.

? Reading charts is taught in like 2nd grade.

Groceries are up 2% per that chart.

Exactly. Economy was in good shape and Covid was put behind us during Biden's term but yet he still tanked like a dead whale with his 40% approval rating. Trump is as equally unfit and equally unpopular as Biden and he also has very noticeable personality disorders. Bringing wars to an end and/or an economy running on all cylinders won't help the GOP in 2026 and 2028. We've been down this road before. It always end the same way.


Because the media hammered him on inflation and every little thing they could - total double standard compared to how the GOP and Trump are treated. The man ran a totally clean administration and was effective legislatively and economically.


This 👆

People in this country love incompetence. Why we are now stuck with Trump.

You can thank Trump and pumping all his “fake news” into the news cycle for Biden not getting more credit. If we didn’t have such a vindictive, petty former president and now president, it would have been a much different outcome.
