    I’m pretty sure War and City are just giving the MAGAs a taste of their own medicine.

    Those same rules didn’t apply to Biden during his presidency. Literally day one they were blaming him for stuff so we’re just playing by the same rules.

    No I never understood what it was about. That’s the reason I never took “Math” in school.

    I think that’s fair. Trump inherited a 4% unemployment rate, record high stock market, and no military in a shooting war from Biden. Let’s see what he does with it.

    Jobs were a lot easier to find from April 2023 to April 2024. Since then jobs have been hard to find.

    I agree we should wait until the February and March jobs reports. It will be interesting to see what effect the layoffs of federal employees and private contractors have on the job numbers.

    Cherry-picking... the usual tactics.

    Don't forget that USAID pays for gay porn in South Africa. They also pay Hamas cash to kill Jews and Americans in the Middle East.

    I would add that the jobs numbers for November and December were revised upward. I recall that you were predicting that they would be revised downward.

    Two very large employers here have quietly imposed hiring freezes. The uncertainty in Washington and the Tallahassee turf war is causing extra caution in the C-Suites, I was told by insiders.
