Well, it keeps getting worse until some point. But it took like a decade of shitty CDOs of CDOs finally collapsed in 2007.
It got to the point where strippers (and other not so wealthy people) where buying 2 or 3 houses aiming to flip.
Bubbles always bubble longer than expected
And if Trump does the trillions in tax cuts like hes trying to do, then the economy floats longer
Trump doesn’t do what he says he will do. Its pretty much random.
The reliable grift, such as anti-immigramt hate and anti-muslim stuff is obviously coming. And as awful as they will be, I’m not convinced that it will have an obvious effect on our economy.
When we start looking at things like Elon’s grift or other Billionaires he’s with, the stock market, crypto coins and other assets will go up. It seems unlikely to me that a crash would necessarily occur at the right timing you desire (this is bad for us in the long term. But the modern corporate economics world has become very good at hiding fraud and kicking cans down the road. Elon especially).
If they can hold most money together and make their supporters money (see Cryptocoin and Tesla stock right now), then they have a winning economic message for their core supporters.
Or do you think anyone actually gives a shit about how middle America will feel from this?
What if the economy doesn’t tank?
The President doesn’t have that much control over the economy. That’s a fundamental truth.
There will be awful policies but there’s no guarantee of an economic collapse here.
And to be red, you have to want to take rights away from women and round up the immigrants.
Bwaaahahahaha. No.
To be Red doesn’t mean that. Republicans are just better at logrolling than you Democrats are.
If your allies are stinky racists, you roll up your sleeves and try to be a good Republican and make new arguments for your side that can drown out the racists. Why? Because allies are needed for power, and working with people you disagree with is more important for the cause than tearing down your allies.
Democrats need to become more RealPolitik. They need to be less ideal and more self serving if they hope to win elections in the future.
And you think you can do that when your opponent literally controls the outreach of your messages?
There is a +Elon Musk boost to Elons messages on Twitter. Furthermore, all the pro-Ukrainian posts systematically become NSFW and hidden from the timeline. Even when it is totally safe to view (like cute cat videos being shared by Ukrainian soldiers).
How the fuck do you get your message out on Twitter when Twitter specifically is being used to suppress your message?
Sure, that’s also sounds like a good disruption strategy.
The goal is to separate and disrupt us. And they will have fully paid specialists who strategize and are savvy on the latest arguments.
Anything that gets Democrats to tear each other apart is the goal. So we need to be careful about the whispers on the internet, and be more careful about thinking about who those whispers serve.
