Great clip.
On a related note that offers some optimism for this election going to Kamala Harris and the Democrats: Seniors aren’t too pleased with what they’re hearing from DonOld and the "republicans" when it comes to Social Security, etc (The economy). Kamala leads 48 to 39 among people over 50 when it comes to social security and Medicare, etc, according to a poll that was shared on PBS NewsHour today.
It’s worth noting that older voters are usually the most reliable voters - although women of all stripes may be the most reliable going forward.

I don't understand how anyone can think that Trump would be better on the economy, or that the republicans are fiscally responsible. I've watched them fuck up the economy at least three times now in my adult life, and then watched as the democrats have had to come in and clean it up. All while they cry like toddlers about how awful the democrats are. Nevermind the fact that they never actually participate in the recovery process and do everything they can to hinder it.
Every major economist, hell, The Economist has said Trump would be a disaster for the economy. The tariffs, the tax cuts, the unsteadiness, the penchant for saying shit without thinking and enacting policy based on whims.
People are concerned about inflation but will vote for a guy who, through tariffs will add about $3k per year in expenses to the average household and whose own mouth piece says that the economy would suck under Trump... but supposedly magically get better.
Who the hell can afford that?

And Mike Johnson says they’ll end Obamacare if they get control of the government.
So the Trump economic plan is:
1. Spend billions to round up and deport 20 million workers, wiping out the workforce of entire industries (agriculture, meat processing, construction, etc)
2. Jack up the price of all imported goods by setting high tariffs.
3. Make health insurance much more expensive for the self-employed and make millions of others uninsured.
Trump is a stable genius.

My prediction before the election was regardless of who got elected there would be a recession during their term. We have gone a long time without a recession and that let's all sorts of things get subtly (or not so subtly) out of whack. I saw a study that showed recessions are not respecters of party: it was for serious investors who invest with their mind not their party affiliation. It could be argued that the Republicans would have been better off letting the Democrats owning it. Perhaps that was part of the Harris selection reasoning. She was not a strong candidate. Now she is pretty much out of the party power structure and the Democrats are going to be well positioned for 2028.
