[Bumblebrain again promises that the feds spending an extra $5T this decade under its BBB plan will be the best thing for the economy since "it will cost nothing" by taxing the bejeezus out of everyone in sight. You really didn't believe that "only those making over $400K" did you? What is it that makes all leftwingers terminally stupid about economics and as to how humans respond to armed confiscation?

re: polling and trolling.
I believe that…..that Paul Emollett is overlooking some real juicy stuff in his comforting polls. While one should never overlook the bottom line, it’s what the data tells me that is of interest.
Is it just me, or have others looked at pools since August and concluded that…..
1) Since Biden’s colossal clustergluck in Afghanistan last August, the independents have moved away from liking Joe. Loose those independents, you lose the Oval Office and left sitting on the oval porcelain throne. Independents have soured on Joey Fingers from Stratton, PA.
2) on the questions of strongly approve, approve, strongly disapprove, disapprove…the Strongly Disapprove is getting larger and larger in the category that pollsters combine (Strongly Agree/Disagree with Agree/Disagree with Somewhat Agree/Disagree) to get their bottom line. With folks putting more emphasis on the ‘Strongly’, Biden and the Dems are facing some serious blowback.
3) Young folks turning away from Biden in droves, as mentioned by Brother Walt @ 2:43 pm. The young are the Dem’s base. Guess they just not that much into Grandpa Joe dozing off at the dinner table and drooling all over himself, the food, the table setting while mumbling away about playing some old 78s on the RCA phonograph. They are putting a lid on him.
4) Trump increased the percentage of Hispanic voters voting Republican from 2016 to 2020. Now, in 2021, the Hispanic voters are leaving the Dems in noticeable droves.
5). The only issue besides Global Warming that Biden got a big thumbs up from the Unhinged Panic Porn Left was his handling on the Wuhan Flu. No longer. He is going underwater on the flu bug too.
6) Issues continued: The Southern Border, economy, inflation, foreign affairs, crime, day of birth abortion, quality of life, bigger government, out of control spending on steroids, racist CRT, penised champions of womens sports….well, let’s just say Joe the Storyteller peddles issues that the majority of voters strongly disagree with. No like. Yucky. Go Brandon, go away.

What a gift for the Dems to once again run against the biggest political loser in over 125 years. I’m sad to say it won’t likely happen. New York is digging in for a criminal indictment soon. Here’s direct quotes from David Cay Johnston non the less. I’m sure he needs no introduction to this crew.
“Former president Donald Trump will soon be indicted for criminal racketeering under New York state law, according to Pulitzer Prize-winning investigative journalist David Cay Johnston.
Johnston indicated Saturday afternoon that the charges will stem from Manhattan District Attorney Cy Vance’s ongoing investigation into whether Trump’s company misled lenders or tax authorities about the value of its properties.
“I anticipate they’re going to bring a racketeering charge against Trump,” Johnston said. “Certainly Trump’s team, when he’s indicted, and I’m certain he will be indicted, is going to try to lay the blame on everybody else, and so what the prosecutors want to show that is if (Trump Organization Chief Financial Officer) Allen Weisselberg phonied up documents, it was at the direction of Donald Trump.”
MSNBC host Yasmin Vossoughian then pressed Johnston to confirm that he is certain about an impending indictment.
“Oh, yeah,” Johnston responded. “They would not have done all of this and know how much they know … if they weren’t going to to do this. Yeah, they will indict him. Exactly when? I don’t know. I don’t expect it will be on a straight tax charge. I think there will be a tax charge, but the key charge will be racketeering.”

In the real world its back to creepy grampa joes love of the 70’s and corn pop who infuluence his run to the days of Jimmy peanut –
Chief among the findings of the report, written by Senior Economist Bob Schwartz, is that the U.S. misery index was 11.2 in November, a level similar to the indices during economic recessions.
“The misery index after dropping for several months never fell to levels consistent with past expansions,” Schwartz wrote in the report. “Worse, since its brief downward journey, the index has resumed climbing and erased almost half of the decline.”
Developed in the 1970s by American economist Arthur Okun, the misery index is an economic indicator used to measure the average person’s economic well-being. The index is calculated using inflation and unemployment figures and is used by economists to gauge public sentiment as it relates to the economy.
Rising inflation is clearly the main culprit in this year’s high misery index. “The scourge of inflation, which hit a 39-year high of 6.8 percent in November, has returned with a vengeance and is the main culprit behind the latest increase,” Schwartz noted.
Last week’s inflation CPI report found inflation had ballooned in November from the previous year by 6.8%, continuing the worst bout of inflation in the almost four decades. Prices increased across the board for consumer goods, as gasoline, food, and new and used cars all experienced price hikes.

‘Vilified by Trump, Liz Cheney explores her political future with backing from GOP elders, like Hillary, are truly the unflushable turds.’
“Cheney’s immediate political goal, however, is to retain her House seat from Harriet Hageman, a Trump-backed primary challenger. To help, she is marshaling the forces of the pre-Trump GOP establishment.”

Add to that this gem she let slip. She was telling the microphones how deeply disappointed she was with her Republican colleagues and chastising them vigorously “on the other side of the aisle.” Yep, that was a slip if I ever heard on.
