Well, in the current economy, the statistical indicators that economists rely on are booming. GDP, etc. What folks on the left like us are saying is that those indicators are easily measurable but do not paint an accurate picture of what most Americans are experiencing. It doesn't feel like a boom out here because, well, it ain't.
It's not like we're sipping champagne, kicking it at the beach, and complaining that the guy next door has a nicer beach. We work just as hard as other generations and get a lot less to show for it.
Acknowledging that is important, but corporate politicians in either party seem like they just don't want to anything about it.
Still voting for Biden, but yeah, not enthusiastically.
Okay, yeah nah I'm with you. I like to think that's what I was getting at, but you said it better.
If I could vote for Biden I too, would do so without enthusiasm. Let's hope he steps down though. I swear anyone else has a better chance at this point.
The only outcome that might suck even more is if Biden did step down, Kamala steps up, and she still loses. Cuz then it's like... oh so we're just gonna be misogynistic as a voter base now, great, thanks fellow Americans. Like, we were ready to vote for a shambling shell of an old man but not a lady with Hillary Clinton energy, okay. 🤦
Hah, I didn't want to say "except Kamala Harris" but that may be the truth after all.
On the other hand, it could be racism rather than misogyny. I have a feeling Taylor Swift would have no trouble winning. 🤣
That's true, it could be racism, it could be both.
God, if Taylor Swift runs for president I'd be stunned. I mean, given the circumstances I'd vote for her, but geez Louise.
