Funny how the Dow is over 43,000 now, record after record broken there, a quarter million new jobs in September, unemployment at lowest levels for decades, pay up and inflation down. Gas in station near my house is 2.99 a gallon right now.
Our GDP is closing in on 30 TRILLION while #2, China is puffing along at 18 Tril.
So you asssholes screaming our economy is tanking, KISS MY ASS. Wages are ahead of inflation right now jobs are way over estimates.

China in trouble:

"More Pain May Be Ahead in 2025. China's economic troubles are deepening, with one economist warning clients the country is headed for a recession—and could need a U.S.-style bank bailout."

The Dow Jones industrial average is rich people gambling on stocks and commodities etc.
It is not a representation of the economy or how regular people are doing.

An example is the gold and silver markets. They have more paper contracts than actual metal. Which tells you it's just gambling and speculation and essentially fake.

They could make a run on pork and drive up the price to 1000 an ounce if they wanted.

The other stuff may or may not be true, I don't know.

Also, regular people don't gives a horse's patoot about how the country is doing or how it will look in the future. JFK can rub salt.

They care about how THEY are doing and it's rough for almost everyone.

Then why aren't they blaming those at fault for high proces? The greedy corporations. They want Trump to win, so they are still using their playbook from 2012, only that time it was their refusal to hire anybody.

How rough is it?

Do you need to buy second hand clothes and use soup kitchens?

You. Personally.

How many people do you actually know who can’t afford to buy 3 apples?

Who said anything about happiness? The wording is: life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. Happiness isn't a right.

So 0.

You don’t know anyone who can’t afford apples.

How much is gas today? War with Iran is being priced into the oil market.
That is what happens when Israel threatens to retaliate against a retaliation.
What makes you think that will not lead to a retaliation to retaliation to a retaliation? I think that is called war. Ya think?

Biden did not cut off free weapons to Israel. Biden is pretending to cut off weapons to Israel in an attempt to fool you. Israel has 30 days to comply. So not until Israel starts a war with Iran. And before the election. Netanyahu says he cannot wait until after the election because Israel would look "weak".

So Biden is going to let Israel (proxy puppet) start a war with Iran and hope that the American people will blame Iran for retaliating to a retaliation of a retaliation. And then support a retaliating to a retaliation of a retaliation of a retaliation.

Are you that stupid? Are you going to support a retaliating to a retaliation of a retaliation of a retaliation as if that is normal?

In other words you want to keep your head firmly buried in the sand so you can keep up your preconceived Trumpite propaganda.
So if Trump wins do you think you will find a nice juicy job when the can those 40,000 civil servants and of course YOUR resume will work just fine since your lips are blown up from constantly kissing Trump's ass.

I get that Biden can cut off weapons to Israel like Reagan did if he wanted to.
It is like having an attack dog on a leash and pretending you have no control over the dog.
Biden is pretending he did that. Look it up. He said no more aid and weapons to Israel.........but 30 days to comply. Long enough for Israel to retaliate to the retaliation and start a war.
I get it. You will buy into the propaganda and blame Iran. You can accept a retaliation to a retaliation, but a retaliation to a retaliation to a retaliation is where you draw the line.

So starting a war with Iran with our puppet proxy Israel is good for Kamala?
Will she blame Biden and say she would have done things differently?

You "get" nothing.

There's nothing about lies to "get".

It's just fairy tales.
