The problem is Peter imagines the US economy is doing great and everything is just perfect in America. That's not how most Americans perceive it.

@Someone-tn8ur He's been predicting China's imminent collapse for 20 years or so.

He just ignores the actual reasons people voted the way they did

A very badly failed prediction at that. It wasn't like it was marginal.

Well yes. They went through the whole procedure, which isnt easy.

@brokenaura23 It isnt strong.

Yep that worked well. The whole Trump is a threat to democracy thing.

He has no clue about the struggles of ordinary people.

Doesnt seem he likes the American people all that much, does it?

@Madame702 They go up and down all the time. Means nothing. They usually fall in a recession.

@LarsonChristopher Companies are collapsing, consumers can't afford the products. How can that be a good economy?

@tjt5055 Have you seen the food and rent prices in 2024? People are not better off.

@thaynealexander8986 He just says any old bullshit, very confidently.

@vhufeosqap That means it's not alright.

@65mustang393 He or she isn't taking into account the greatly increased costs of things like housing, it seems.

@tjt5055 Rents only increased 3%? Not what I've heard
1
@tjt5055 People felt bad for no real reason, probably just because they're stupid. That's your argument?

@tjt5055 Where are you getting this data? I'm sure there are some cheap rents in places where there are no jobs
1
@BrianHolmes There is already a recession. It will probably get worse.

@5353Jumper It's not politicians that caused it. They don't really control the economy.

@austinpratt1923 Of course not, and nor would Kamala.

@Matt_K I've seen the prices in stores for things like meat, food is far from cheap there nowadays
1
@realismatitsfinest1 It was in this case.

@Matt_K China is the strongest economy in the world by far. The US just prints money.

@jonlittle5032 How do you know she isn't black?
1
@jonlittle5032 i dont habitually call people liars without good reason. I have no reason to doubt her.
1
@jonlittle5032 I never claimed it was, did i?
1
@jonlittle5032 Oh for christs sake, it's an internet handle. Are you new to the internet? Don't bother responding, this is an idiotic conversation.
1
@jonlittle5032 You have to take inflation and increased government debt into account. Most of the new jobs created have been Federal jobs.
1
@jonlittle5032 Whatever. I get that you didn't like being called out as, well, a bit of a racist.

Sounds about right.
