Lanis told The Daily Beast that her once 'extremely loving' father - who worked as a car designer and had no history of violence - had become heavily influenced by far-right figures like Alex Jones.

Does Alex Jones (right-wing media nut job) see another lawsuit in his future?

Is extreme violence, just a part of the QAnon way of life? Or cult life ala Jim Jones?

[QUOTE=MarquisdeSade1;2743016]LOL they do this with everything.

If they aren't fudging the stats like ET they are lying with omissions.

So typical, the left knows they can't "win" unless they cheat.[/QUOTE]I don't know what's worse. That you post this horse puckey or that you believe what you post.

Don't tell any Mainstream Media pundits about this:

[B]Wholesale prices fell 0.1% in August amid inflation fears[/B]

[QUOTE]The producer price index, a gauge of prices received at the wholesale level, declined 0.1%, in line with expectations.

On a year-over-year basis, the index, which is a gauge of wholesale prices, increased 8.7%, the lowest increase since August 2021.[/QUOTE]

[QUOTE=CaliGuy;2743122]Am I the only one that can see Biden disaster presidency. Biden and White House celebrating their $500 billion giveaway inflation fighter and inflation soars upward. Even with the Biden policies killing the economy and gas prices down, inflation soars. Stock market crashes. Biden presidency is the worst in 40 plus years and idiots on this forum are still talking about Trump. Biden is driving millions of people into poverty. I along with normal working people care about today and the future. I don't give a crap about Trump or any past presidents good or bad. People are suffering. Biden proving he is the worst president ever and he has no solution or qualified people in the White House to help correct the problem. He has no qualified staff but he does have diversity. 20,000,000 households are delinquent on their power bills. California will solve their rolling blackouts by cutting off households from electricity. Democrats in California are basically stupid. No reality. Buy an expensive electric car but you can't charge it until after midnight. If you work night shift you can't charge your car during the day at home. Stupidity at its finest with democrats and Biden. When are guys here going to get serious about the Biden catastrophe? Bashing Trump isn't going to make retirement or paying your bills any easier. Only an idiot would talk about Trump when the people in USA are going through this crises.[/QUOTE]Am I the only one that sees that most of the world is suffering from inflation?

Am I the only one that sees that not giving a crap that Donnie the Dumbass stole Federally classified documents ignores the problem?

Am I the only one that sees that charging people exorbitant amounts for electricity is wrong, especially when they had no control over the situation? Or maybe escaping the problem by going to Mexico was wrong? Or maybe both?

[QUOTE=Xpartan;2743120]The world in its essence can be viewed as binary: evil / not evil. "Not evil" is not binary, while evil, like Trump and Putin, definitely is.[/QUOTE]Oh my goodness You don't even know what binary means! : - ** "Not evil" is not binary, while "evil" is ** ... Haha! WTF....

FYI binary means there are only 2 outcomes. Your claiming that that there are no possible outcomes between 'evil' and 'not evil', which is clearly not correct. Even to a Spider.

[QUOTE=ScatManDoo;2743121]Then why deny genuine choice to rape victims?[/QUOTE]I would honestly like to hear why you think the foetus of a rape victim deserve less rights than the foetus of a non-raped female.

Any intelligent person will tell you the reason those idiots keep talking about Trump is to try to distract everyone from the reality of the worst president in history. CNN and MSNBC do it all the time. They can't talk about Biden because there is nothing positive about his presidency. Do you really think that Americans care about Trump when they can't afford to eat, pay their bills or fill their tank? They didn't have these issues during Trump presidency. They damn sure aren't blaming Trump or past presidents for Biden inflation.

Former Repub Mississippi Gov. Phil Bryant and former NFL player Brett Favre, team up to scam and steal welfare funds, to for a volleyball complex, they were heavily invested in.

[QUOTE=JustTK;2743057] ... I thought only insects and insect-like minds saw things in a binary world. Clearly I was mistaken. Maybe that's why your called Spidery.[/QUOTE]Typical, yet more again, attacking the messenger instead of the message. Followed up be more "lowbrow" name calling. For someone who's not into labels, you sure do sound like a hypocrite.

Wait let's get this right, shall we. You clearly state, I correctly played you for a fool, [B]as you stated here:[/B].

[QUOTE=JustTK;2742553]Its called playing along with your silly games, and inventing a name that fits with YOUR naming style. ...[/QUOTE]So, how could it be, that you and your ill-conceived bothsidesism mind, could fall for the "silly games" of your made up, so called "insect mind"?

How pathetic of a mind is yours to get played by a so called "insect mind"?

Next you'll revert to more typical name calling like your QAnon / Repub comrade, Elvis. Followed by more attacks on the messenger and not the message.

Saying that you have smthg in common with insects bcos you can only see binary is not name calling. It is not even attacking the messenger. I am attacking your message. Which was to call me a QaNon supporter bcos of your binary (your either with us or against us) view of the world. Sounds like your the one employing QaNon Bush type rhetoric, not me.

[QUOTE=EihTooms;2743159]That is some mystical magical business cycle that favors Dem economic legislation and stewardship with every major economic expansion and massive jobs creation and none of the Great Depressions / Great Recessions of the past 100 years while rewarding Repubs' efforts with every Great Depression / Great Recession and massive job losses and none of the major expansions and massive jobs creation. And it turned out that way no matter if the Dems and Repubs get a 4 year, 8 year or 12 year shot at it too. Amazing.

It is so amazing it really defies all probability and I think it is long past time to start considering the distinct possibility if not a certainty that pattern of results is due to each Party's planned mission.

Look at any economic chart for major gains vs losses over time. Hell, look at your own posted link for the Real Household Income chart. Major declines began under Repubs vs the major recoveries and gains beginning under Dems.

Had Trump not been presented the opportunity to crash the USA economy and wipe out millions of jobs by defying all expert warnings not to leave the country bare ass naked to prevent or respond to a novel coronavirus spread and then to compound that disaster by lying the world into the Pandemic it became, he would have found another way to do it before he got canned from the job.

He's a Repub. That is what they do for a living. It is the only thing they do, know how to do and want to do.

Sure, as his re-election bid approached, he was forced to fast-track approval of vaccines he spent almost the entire Trump's Pandemic Production year dismissing as unnecessary for anyone to invent much less take. "It's disappearing! It will go away without a vaccine!

He was still lying about that deep into October 2020, even after drug companies were spending millions to invent vaccines despite Trump insisting they shouldn't bother.[/QUOTE]
Hi Tooms,

Well, if you believe in spurious correlations, you should go all in and put all your savings in USA Stock index futures. Every year in January, if an NFC team wins, go long, and if an AFC team wins, go short.

The primary determinant of whether the economy performs well or poorly over a 4 or 8 year period is whether the USA went through a recession. If you kick out the recessions and the recoveries, I bet you wouldn't see much of a correlation between GDP growth or real household income or whatever and the party of the president. There are exceptions, like Reagan's second term, Clinton's second term, and, for median household income and wages (but not GDP), 2019. Please note that, perhaps coincidentally, no one party controlled government during these periods. The presidency and at least the House were controlled by different parties.

So, when you boil it all down, the question is when were the recessions? You're clearly blaming COVID and the 2020 recession solely on Trump. You appear to be blaming the collapse of the housing market and the consequent 2008/2009 recession solely on George W. Bush. As well as the collapse of the internet boom. George H. W. Bush is responsible for the Iraqi invasion of Kuwait and the subsequent increase in oil prices. And then of course there was the most diabolical of Republicans, Ronald Reagan. He too was responsible for high energy prices. And stagflation and the Fed's actions to control it.

It's so simple isn't. It's like you said, they're Republicans, and "that is what they do for a living. It is the only thing they do, know how to do and want to do. " Nuke the economy. Satan has hardened their hearts.

As to economic performance during COVID, when Trump was president, we can look at how other countries did, comparatively. Here's YoY GDP growth at 12/31/2020 for the five largest developed countries in the world:

USA: -2. 3%.

Japan: -4. 68%.

Germany: -3. 70%.

France: -7. 8%.

UK: -9. 28%.

And as to Trump being a liar, yeah, he's a big liar, even by the standards of politicians. We agree on that.

I haven't forgotten your other posts. I'll be back with you on those - it's pretty busy with work.

Electric prices rising with green energy. Gas prices rising with Biden policies. And idiot socialists talk about Trump. Electric prices in California have gone up with wind and solar. Must be Trumps fault. California democrats shut down nuclear and gas power and have rolling blackouts. Must be Trumps fault. Can you believe how dumb these socialists are?
