American Politics

[QUOTE=AxelHeyst;2653112]RealClearPolitics (RCP) poll of polls:

For the first time, and on the one-year anniversary of his failed presidency, Biden's average approval rating dipped below 41 percent. He now sits at just 40.9 percent.

Biden's average disapproval rating is now well over 50 percent, at 53.3 percent, which means he is 12.4 points underwater.

Both Gallup and the far-left Politico released polls today that put Biden's approval at 40 percent and his disapproval at 56 percent. Civiqs polling has him at just 34 percent.

Proof I guess that America is Racist & Fascist! 555 / KKK.

[QUOTE=Canada;2653394]This post just shows manipulated lies again. You say 7 Republican crashes. None of the 3 were crashes. 2 were corrections and one was a pandemic. None were great Republican crashes and the market and economy benefited from all of them. Trump economy rebounded in 2021 when Biden did nothing to stop it. Now after a year we have a month of Biden economy. Down 4% inflation at record high. And less people working than before your so called crash.[/QUOTE]Do you even know what an economic "contraction" is according to every economic measure and the NBER?

Clearly, you do not.

RCP had until 12 Noon USA EST today to jam in a couple more of those Rasmussen or Trafalgar polls to give Trump a shot at defeating Biden at something for a change. But I guess they couldn't find one.

[QUOTE=Canada;2653429]No surprise here that you didn't watch the Biden disaster but somehow you remember watching Trump press conference. Obviously you knew Trump had more to say. There has never been a president in the last 50 years that stuttered and stammered so much. Totally confused. Just keep avoiding the obvious. Your life will not get better if you ignore Biden mistakes. CNN on full damage control trying to show clips of Biden press conference. Showing the early questions that Biden had the answers written down in advance. After that press conference it explains why Russia and China are ecstatic dealing with the USA now. There is a reason 49% of the people think Biden is unfit to be president. When that question was presented to Biden he said I just don't know why 49% think he is unfit.[/QUOTE]I tried to find something that was "true" in this but I couldn't. The highlights are:

"I remember the previous White House Resident, the one of the orange disposition, who was world-famous for his elaborate speeches, clear and coherent answers, deep analytical thinking and, what else?" was the original comment. It is [B]completely unsurprising[/B] that you can't tell that the comment was [B]sarcasm[/B].

"There has never been a president in the last 50 years that stuttered and stammered so much. " There has never been a President who had a stuttering problem before Biden. Again, I find it [B]completely unsurprising[/B] that you didn't know this.

"There is a reason 49% of the people think Biden is unfit to be president. " Sure there is. 35% of the American population (Republicans) are morons. The other 15% are unhappy.

Clearly, you do not.[/QUOTE]Obviously you know nothing. We have an incompetent president destroying America and you are ok with this because you think you can blame fabricated Republican history. You can't be American. Not sure if your nationality. Probably Indian or Asian as you want to see America fail. You keep your hatred propaganda in your country and we will vote our way out of this disaster.

[QUOTE=Canada;2653393]I advise you to watch it. It pretty much shows he is unfit for president. He looked like a tired old man in first stage of dementia and his answers backed it up. It is scary to think he is meeting with world leaders.[/QUOTE]

On the other hand, I'd like to ask every right-winger here who watched that [B]2-hour press-conference personally[/B]. What [B]specific[/B] answers convinced you he's unfit for president? That is if you actually watched the event and not the commentaries from your favorite lunatic TV pundits.

Anyone want to chime in?

Oh, and by the way, Repubs didn't manage to vote their way out of anything in 2020. And because 50% of you are willfully ignorant, there will be even fewer to vote for Cheeto McBonespurs in 2024.

There have been 17 Recessions in the USA economy over the past 100 years.

All but 4 of them began under Republican Party economic stewardship in the White House.

All of the half dozen or so of the deepest and most damaging to employment numbers Recessions began under Republicans.

Of the 4 that began under Democrats, all of them were among the briefest and least damaging to employment.

One began in 1937 during a historic recovery from a previous Great Repub Crash in the economy.

Two began in 1945 and 1948 when America was in the process of resetting and retooling factories and jobs from its WWII efforts while also paying the bills for that war.

And the 4th one, the briefest and least damaging of all, began in early 1980, almost didn't even qualify as a Recession in that we were already pulling out of it by the second consecutive quarter of fractional contraction and, most notable of all, was purposely induced by the Fed in order to reverse the trajectory of inflation by cooling down an overheated economy that was creating far more jobs than there were applicants to take them.

Of all the "economic problems" to have, that last one is about the best one any country would want. Rest assured, there has never been such a "problem" under any Repub so serious to require Fed intervention.

Now, Great Repub Bear Market Crashes is a different topic that requires a different link. But they are related in that most Bear Market Crashes do accompany a Recession. Consequently, most deep and significant Bear Market Crashes of the past century have accompanied Great Repub Recessions, as was the case with each of the most recent Repub so-called potus', Trump and GW Bush.

They always mischaracterize or outright lie about his compensation tactic of occasionally briefly stopping in mid-sentence to choose a perfectly acceptable alternate next word or phrase in order to avoid the ones he suspects might trigger a stutter. Which he does brilliantly and largely seamlessly, I should add.

Now, when Trump repeats the words "anominus, anominus" or "oranges, oranges" over and over again when he apparently is struggling to say "anonymous" and "origins" and when he thinks one of our great and world renowned National Parks, Yosimite, is really a "Yo, Semite!" call to people of Jewish heritage, would that be considered a stutter, a stammer or merely more examples of his serious cognitive decline?

Which is the politically correct term for that?

I wouldn't want to be insensitive and unwoke about his disability and mental challenges.

Just watch. One of them will say that it is "fake news" that Biden had / has a stuttering problem and / or that the one-term, twice-impeached former guy ever said "anominus", "oranges" or "yo-semites".

[QUOTE=EihTooms;2653654]Two began in 1945 and 1948 when America was in the process of resetting and retooling factories and jobs from its WWII efforts.[/QUOTE]Of course, as recessions often follow wars. Yet the same benefit of the doubt isn't given to Dwight after the end of the Korean War. Instead we get all the hubris "atrocious, etc." You are pretty much in the same vein as Canada and his various other names, but from the other side. And it's rather irrelevant as the audience is rather small, a sex forum, and in a thread tucked away where few know about it.

[QUOTE=Canada;2653829]Yes unfit to lead. First stage of Alzheimer's and delusional. Pretty obvious to most Americans.[/QUOTE]The OP listed specific questions and you didn't answer one of them.

But since you believe that Biden has Alzheimer's, please provide a copy of your medical degree in addition to the diagnosis of one of Biden's doctors. Since "delusional" is a subset of "psychosis", please also provide a copy of your doctorate degree in Psychology as well as the relevant diagnosis of Biden's psychologist (if he has one).

Since none of the above exist (except in your mind) you are guilty, as usual, of spreading manure.

[QUOTE=Canada;2653828]And that concludes fairytale story time today. Keep up the fiction.[/QUOTE]And what makes it a fairytale?

EihTooms not only provided the data but also the link so you could verify his statement.

If you disagree with his statement or the source, the grown-up response would be to explain why.

You could insist, for example, that the OP was incorrect and there haven't been 17 recessions presided over by the Republicans.

Of course, as a grown-up, you would be expected to substantiate your rebuttal with a coherent and persuading argument. Calling it a fairytale is not it.

Are you a grown-up, Mr. Canada?
