Such utter nonsense. There clearly weren't enough Capitol police. . His staff was entreating him to order in the guard The VP called to say they were in danger. Members of the Secret Service were saying goodbye to their loved ones. His VP called in to ask for assistance.

Maybe that kind of silliness wins you plaudits in the circles you move in. Just more empty nonsense.

So someone hacked into your account and called Trump critics "haters"?

Was it really that unclear? Yes he said that. Now tell me, what did he do to have the rioters evicted from the Capitol? Did he just watch the mayhem and do nothing?

Not at al. It is usually the case that 2 quarters of GDP decline indicate a recession. But that's because unemployment typically rises as well. Unemployment is actually the most important factor in indicating a recession. Because it's the one the most affects the lives of citizens. But not only is it very low, but there are actually lots of jobs going begging in the current economy. Employers are complaining that they can't find workers. Now, if you're the kind of right winger who puts profits over people, (and is there really in fact any other kind?) maybe the current situation would correspond to your idea of a recession. But I don't agree. And neither do the experts.

Actually, you've got it 100% wrong. Treason is when a citizen of a country betrays their country. I remember being amused when various parties accused Assange of being a traitor to America. As was pointed out by numerous commentators, you can't be a traitor to a the USA if you're a citizen of Australia. You could look this stuff up: the crime of betraying one's country, especially by attempting to kill the sovereign or overthrow the government. https://www.google.com/search?q=treason&oq=treason&aqs=chrome..69i57.3014j0j7&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8

But these referees specifically reject the notion that 2 declines in GDP mean a recession. Especially when the decline in the 2nd quarter was entirely due to decreased inventory which amounted to 2%. It's not a recession when hiring is still so strong.

Trump said a lot of things. But when the rioters invaded the Capitol he did nothing. To your way of thinking what speaks louder action (or in this case inaction) or words?

I just cited the people who actually are responsible for declaring a recession. And you come back at me with this. Maybe you should follow the link. You might learn something. For instance that the Democrats and the Fed have changing nothing about how inflation is decided. As for the inflation reduction act of 2022, it's called that because it will collect more in taxes than it will spend. Which is anti-inflationary. (Maybe you should pass the word along to Liz Truss.) Among other things, it will increase the budget for the IRS which will allow more tax cheats to be prosecuted. The chief of the IRS has said tax evasion costs the US 1 trillion dollars per year. Yet for some reason, Republicans have consistently slashed the IRS' budget. They claim that they want the govt to be run more like a business, but they slash funding to a potentially huge profit center. Wonder why? And there are people who accuse the Democrats of being backed by the swamp?

False. Recession Referees Reject Idea That Two GDP Drops Spell a Downturn Informal rule of thumb has no merit to NBER recession group US expansion continuing this year, ex-committee members say https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2022-07-28/official-recession-arbiters-reject-gdp-decline-means-a-slump#xj4y7vzkg And it's especially false when employment has been growing at a healthy pace. Payrolls increased 372,000 in June, more than expected, as jobs market defies recession fears https://www.cnbc.com/2022/07/08/jobs-report-june-2022-.html

More empty predictions. Oh, and accusation of bribery without producing a shred of evidence to support it. You got some kind of allergy to facts?

He also said he wanted the metal detectors turned off at the rally since the people who were attending wouldn't be a threat to him. Hmm...now who would they be a threat to?

As pointed out previously apparently to no avail, the DA in Georgia previously went after teachers for promoting cheating on standardized exams. She got lots of convictions. The Democratic leaning teachers' union was none too happy about that. You haven't got a shred of evidence about bribery. Stop making things up.

I guess when you've got nothing you resort to mass personal attacks on people who criticize Trump. How critics of Trump may feel about him is irrelevant.. What is relevant are the facts.

Another instance of I don't like Trump but... Which latest tax and spend bill are you referring to? And, you're wrong. The U.S. is not in a technical recession. A country can't be in a recession when job growth is still so strong.

Nothing bespeaks cluelessness like invoking predictions as an argument. And it's really bizarre to claim that a President who gave so much to the swamp inhabited by big banks, hedge funds, and giant corporations, has anything to fear from it.

If you had investigated just a little instead of reacting reflexively you would know that she pursued criminal cases against teachers for helping students to cheat on standardized exams. Their union is a major supporter of Democrats. She took a lot of political flack for that. https://www.ajc.com/news/key-figure-aps-test-cheating-scandal-plead-guilty/5sF7SLq16ETFwl3q2Uq7eK/

Apparently, someone else who believes that Trump really won the 2020 election.

Well, given what the Ukraine war has revealed about the quality of Russian weaponry, maybe a dealer who trades in Russian weaponry isn't such a hot commodity.

Maybe you just inadvertently skipped the sentence I quoted.

Fox News seems to have abandoned Trump. They haven't interviewed him in over 100 days and no longer broadcast his speeches live.

Actually, I should have asked you that question. It's clear that Trump isn't nearly as confident about where the disapproval was directed as you. Or why else would he ask this question: ."The ex-president responded to the booing by apparently seeking some self-validation: “But you like me?” he asked."

What I find interesting is that when the price of oil goes up, prices at the pump quickly follow suit. But when prices go down, there is a substantial lag time before prices at the pump decline.

And how long has this car salesman been predicting the demise of Tesla? Why would any rational person have confidence in his analysis of future prospects of ICE vehicles?

So you think the crowd approved of Trump's endorsement but didn't like the guy he was endorsing? You really want to go with that? Just like in the past when Trump took credit for vaccines and the crowd booed they weren't booing Trump but just the vaccines?
