After suffering for 3.5 years of record, out-of-control Bidenflation. How much does a gallon of gas cost again? Remind me. What a mess. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stock market isn't main Street or the economy. Of course it isn't. But the billions of individual decisions that go into whether the market is up or down are reflecting a general optimism about economic conditions. One that is odds with "recession is upon us." 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Frankish Reich Posted August 15 Share Posted August 15 My hunch, not yet confirmed by polling: the rise of Harris in the polls isn't just about getting rid of the elderly Biden. It also gave people a chance to assess what they think about the economy today, and to realize that things are quite a bit brighter than the Old Man (Trump vs. Biden) Malaise suggested. Harris is running now against the backdrop of a strong economy. Historically that puts her in a very strong position, and Trump's harping on how everything is awful is beginning to sound completely untethered to reality. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
