no excuse, I just don’t care
And that's the problem.
When it’s small stuff from Biden you are all over it but this stuff you turn a blind eye.
President Trump

NEW -> Contingent Buyer Assistance Program
And that's the problem.

I see it as a slip up by someone, including Trump. One slip is forgiveable, two? Not to much.... And No, I don't think the mexican moustache and sombrero with "La Cucaracha" song was racist.
not necessarily true…
It’s a great question because Charles is essentially correct from a historical reference. However, we are in uncharted territory due to the scale of illegal aliens within the U.S. economy in this modern era. The answer is a commonsense theory currently playing out in real time.
ANSWER: A much larger percentage of illegal aliens live on various subsidies and govt spending programs than our native American population. As a result, it’s like govt spending, except we have ten million people spending excessive govt money instead of one big spending bill.
The underlying economy is inorganic and detached from traditional cause and effect. In this dynamic when you deport the illegals, we are reducing the govt spending. Less govt spending actually tames inflation and lowers housing costs at a greater rate than the upward pressure on wages.

I care. No matter how it happened, the response should have been A) "It was wrong", B) "I've apologized by phone with them". and C) "We've taken steps to ensure it doesn't happen again". In that order. Looks very unprofessional and gives fuel to the opposition.

After what Obama did deploying the intelligence agencies to subvert his campaign and later his pre-inaugural administration no amount of demonization is sufficient for that traitor

There is a difference between demonization and racism.

Once you accept the notion that everyone, regardless of race, creed, or (fill in the blank) has a racist streak of varying width, you become less judgemental about "that other guys problem".
How do I know this is true? Start, dear reader, by taking a deep dive into the phrase ...the soft bigotry of low expectations" for example.
Do I think The Donald is a hood wearing racist? No, of course not.. Was this crude "humor", beneath the dignity of the office of President? Absolutely.
He needs to publicly apologize, then as Christ said : "Go, and sin no more".
We'll see.

Bad news for those secretly hoping for a recession.
The economy added 130,000 jobs in January — far more than economists had anticipated — while the unemployment rate edged down slightly to 4.3%, Labor Department data released Wednesday showed.

I like that the stock market and job market is positive... but prices are still too high (not sure that can be fixed by any administration as I blame the companies and not the president).
Now let's get that Russian/Ukranian war ended...
Oh wait... America first.
Oh wait.. Venezuela.
Oh wait... Greenland.
What will the next wag the dog be?

Not sure lowering costs will help... companies will just keep prices where they are at or continue to raise them.
It's called the Chipotle effect.

You do understand how inflation numbers work, right? It NEVER goes down, they are a year over year progression of prices. “Easing” of inflation simply means they go up slower…going backwards is a depression. We are not getting back those prices Biden unleashed on us, that’s done…2.7% is normal and close to fed targets…inflation (affordability) is under control and not spiking as is did under Biden to the tune of 9%….mission accomplished.Not sure lowering costs will help... companies will just keep prices where they are at or continue to raise them.

Gen Z — the first generation officially dubbed dumber than the last
And shockingly, they are proud of it.“They’re the first generation in modern history to score lower on standardized academic tests than the one before it,” Dr. Jared Cooney Horvath, 43, told The Post. “And to make matters worse, most of these young people are overconfident about how smart they are.
