UK Village Fights Back Against Coastal Erosion and Climate Change
candide replied to Social Media's topic in World News
It's certainly not a good idea to buy a house very close to the sea (in particular now, in respect to rising sea levels an associated erosion). However, we don't know when he bought his house (he's 71). That was maybe not a concern at that time. -
Biden's Family Considers Potential Exit Strategy from 2024 Campaign

There is no data about the rich getting richer in your source. Did you read it? It seems not. You do that a lot. π -

candide replied to CharlieH's topic in World News
So you made a claim you are not able to back with data. Did you just repeat what you read in right-wing media? On top of it, if you don't define "the rich" and which indicator you were referring to, how can a comparison with the situation under Trump be made? -

I replied to your claim that the rich got richer under Biden. So what is this "rich" category you were mentioning and what has been their wealth increase under Biden? -

Ok, I correct my assertion. When this trend started, the billionaires ldid 3 times better under Trump than under Biden. I assume it is a relevant indicator for the "rich" category evoked by Yellowtail. Yellowtail (who never defined this category) disagrees with it, while providing no data, as usual. -
Trump Warns of Unprecedented Global Conflict in RNC Speech
candide replied to Social Media's topic in World News
Absolutely not. Most Trump voters in that age range were already Republican at that time, and they were massively supporting the invasion of Irak. -

You wrote a deflection and then accuse someone else to deflect from your lame deflection. π -

Actually, it's you who deflected when you replied to my post, which was about Trump's ridiculous show of ignorance. π -

Actually, I must admit the first link was not very clear. Here's more from the second source https://inequality.org/great-divide/updates-billionaire-pandemic/ "The combined fortune of the nationβs 660 billionaires as of Monday, January 18, 2021 was $4.1 trillion, up 38.6% from their collective net worth of just under $3 trillion on March 18, 2020" "On March 18, 2024, the country has 737 billionaires with a combined wealth of $5.529 trillion," That's + 35% compared to January 18, 2021. To sum up In less than one year under Trump, +38% In three years under Biden Γ·35% -

Biden's Family Considers Potential Exit Strategy from 2024 Campaign
candide replied to CharlieH's topic in World News
I did not make up false economic claims. I have posted sources showing that the trend of rich people becoming significantly richer (for the billionaire population as tracked by Fortune), started under Trump in 2020 with the highest increase in both wealth and number of billionaires. The trend went on under Biden at a decreasing rate. You have posted zero data to contradict it and just repeated "you did not read them" like a trolling broken record. -

Well, we can start with this thread. How many links did you post? 0 I saw several links posted by what you call lefties, several posts from you, 0 links. -

Elon Musk to Give $45M Monthly to Trump Super PAC
candide replied to Social Media's topic in World News
I know and corrected it in another post. My financial status has nothing to do with it, as I did not inherit a large amount of money and my father did not pay my debts. As to Musk, he's not a moron and is a real entrepreneur. He's a bit crazy but it often goes with being an entrepreneur. Having said that, managing a mature business requires other skills, so he may not be so good at it.
