Oh boy, will that be embarrassing when they have to walk that back after he wins the nomination. Just kidding, you can't embarrass these people.

Loved the roll down back window. Back in the day we'd drive around stoned and tripping... and those in the back could climb out, sit on the trunk and catch the breeze...

Hmmmm, 2.8% GDP? The very best that Trump's spectacular Tax Cuts produced was 2.9% in 2018, one year after his Tax Cut passed. But the very next year, one year prior to Covid-19, he only hit 2.3% GDP. GDP plummeted from 2018-2019.

I believe Trump claimed in Jan 2017 that "If my Tax cuts pass, we'll see US GDP of 4, 5 or maybe even 6%". His actual results were not even close. Suckers!

Historical GDP by POTUS (Trump is near the bottom of the article link below) 2017 = 2.3%2018 = 2.9%2019 = 2.3%2020 = (-3.4%). Real GDP growth in 2021-22 stands at 8.7%

Real wages increasing, inflation coming down, record low unemployment, healthy GDP growth.

Perfect time for the Washington Press Rabble to gibber endlessly about Biden's DOCS SCANDAL™. And preview the upcoming investigations into the CATASTROPHIC WITHDRAWAL FROM AFGHANISTAN. It will give them a chance to use that not-at-all-like-Saigon heicopter on the embassy roof picture another 723 times.

The role of the fourth estate is to prevent either horse leading by more than a neck in the race that never ends.

Good. I got my employer to get me a work phone which I only use for multi factor authentication. Not my fault they decided to implement higher security which requires a phone. (note: MFA doesn't actually require a phone, various alternatives exist, this was just laziness)
