Trump's populist base is slowly transforming into neocon baby boomers in real time. Employment crisis across three generations? Regular expenses like groceries tripling in price? AI bubble? Student loan bubble? The stock market being infeasible for average Americans? "Now listen here sonny, the line is going up..."
I'm of the belief that one should judge the state of the economy with their own eyes. It seems that some sectors of it are doing the best to be expected while others are facing more issues. Republicans and Democrat supporters reporting on the matter are prone to hyperbole and advancing their own causes.

To address these one at a time:
1. Groceries tripling in price

Here is a chart on food inflation prices in recent years:

Looking at this one can deduce is that while there has been food price increases in the last decade (which would happen naturally due to inflation in of itself), 2025 is not an unusually bad year for it.

2. AI bubble

Personally I agree with this as spending on AI overall continues, the return on investment is not there yet which is what has been financial reported on in the industry. Investors do expect record returns though and 2026 (a midterm election year) in particular is set to be a big year for AI spending. If the profits don't appear the bubble should pop eventually though but who knows when.

3. Student loan bubble
This is definitely a crisis (not of Trump's making in particular) but will not effect everyone. A good portion of the Republican voter base doesn't even have college degrees so maybe it's something that can be exploited for political purposes. I can see the end of government-backed lending being announced in order to address this.

4. The stock market being infeasible for average Americans

It has been reported that just 62% of Americans own stocks. On average these individuals are White and making over $100,000 a year. If your point is that it makes no sense, that's not a new sentiment. An economist who died in 1946 once said "markets can remain irrational longer than you can remain solvent," and that's true as today as it was then.

First of all, I post racist memes online. Second, I complain every day on Kiwi Farms Dot Ess Tee about how much everything sucks and can't get better. Third, I listen to SEVERAL "fashy" podcasts. You can thank me later.
All that helps while I consolidate with your grandmother for milk and cookies.
 
Leftist Ws:
-Comey's case got dismissed
-Letita Jame's case got dismissed
-Kilmar Abrego Garcia is still living in the country, better off than ever
-They assassinated Charlie Kirk and suffered no consequences
-Charlie Kirk's death has been turned into an absolute joke. He's mocked across the entire Internet and his legacy has become a laughing stock along with anyone who ever believed in him.
-They attacked a TPUSA event and suffered no consequences
-Republican party is absolutely shattered with no cohesion. You have the VP telling everyone to get along while every third world nation on the planet is conquering this country. The last AmFest was filled with black whores talking about protecting African Christians, Ben Shapiro talking about how if you don't bend the knee to Israel you aren't welcome in the party, Tucker Carlson talking about how it's mean an unchristian to not be dicked down by muslims, and Vivek talking about how he's just as American as you are.
-Judges have blocked literally everything Trump's tried to do
-Anarchotyranny is in full action. If you aren't White you can commit whatever crime you want and get away with it
-You can attack federal agents and be acquitted immediately, meanwhile if you show a muslim a piece of bacon you'll be arrested for a hate crime in a red state. It is both safer and more legal to be a violent left-wing terrorist than it is to be a peaceful right-wing protestor.
-Democrats have won every notable election since the general election in 2024, including getting an AG elected who literally said he wanted to murder conservative's children and watch their parents cry as the life drained from their children's eyes.
-Somalians have defrauded Minnesota for billions and many of them have had their cases dismissed by activist judges
-Got two straight-up socialists elected in NYC and Seattle. The radical portions of the Democrat base get everything they want while the Republicans are doing everything they can to prevent anyone to the right of Bill Clinton from gaining any control in their political party. Can't even make edgy jokes in a private group chat for a Young Republicans chapter without getting shamed and kicked out.
-No crackdown on antifa like we were promised
-Won the redistricting game. California gerrymandered 5 seats while all the red states cucked out.
-Dems more energized than ever. The Trump administration has done everything they can to look as heavy-handed and fashy as possible while being as soft, weak and useless as they can be. This gets the worst of both worlds where nothing is actually done, but the aesthetics validate the Dems beliefs that they're fighting fascism, which guarantees that they will fucking kill us the next time they get elected into office.
-Republicans completely demoralized. The right is reduced to begging to deaf ears for the administration to do something while the left continues to terrorize them unimpeded. Even the shilliest Republican pundits know they're going to lose the midterms. (Except you guys somehow)

Right-Wing Ws:
-Line went up :D
These are the ramblings of a lunatic. I'll continue to not take you seriously at all.
 
I get sourcefagging a guy to troll him, but when he actually does immediately come back with a source and you refuse to engage with it, kinda puts eggs on your face.
I agree to an extent but (i assume) people like picture graphs, reading and not having to click on a video and wait for the sloptuber to whip out graphs over bullshit none of us (including vizzie) truly give a fuck about and will forget about by the end of today.

But there is a problem on this forum with people asking for sources/evidence or other things, it being provided and they just negrate you and call you a nigger. Funny and all but we should all attempt to be impartial and seek the truth, not what makes us feel good, though I have issues with that too.

Also if you use TOR you have to open that shit on a clearnet browser because I can't view youtube attachments on KF over TOR and aint nobody got time for dat nigga. I assume thats a big part why Null gets pissed off over people not archiving.

My main issue is what you said above: it's easier to read something that at least tries to be impartial, like research data, than to watch a breadtuber twist data to fit his narrative. I'd be pissed if the dude linked a video by a libertarian or far-right person, as well, if he was trying to claim it as a source.

Bonus points if the scales on the graph are legible and logical :optimistic:
 
"You don't understand. I can't watch the video with 4 million views because it might give random youtuber money. Invidious? No I just can't watch it, I... I just can't, okay?"
1. I'm working and my job does not permit me to have any kind of unnecessary background noise on because it's considered unprofessional.
2. Anybody can put any kind of biased thing they want up on Jewtube, especially if it's loony left content.
3. Fuck you, I'm not wasting a half hour watching some bullshit biased documentary on your say so. I can literally use that time to watch that episode of Seinfeld again where the guy pulled his dick out on Elaine, which is a way better use of my time.

Or they can just tweet about how mean the left is while more of their ilk are hunted down and killed to mass celebration, like they always have.

The right will go extinct by the end of this decade, mark my fucking words.

You forgot about the fact that they have all but killed Trump's deportations and tariffs, and have completely humiliated the Trump admin on social media. More importantly, they killed Charlie Kirk, permanently fracturing the right as the neocons take back control of the Republican party. Need I mention NYC is now run by a commie jeet?
Oh thank Christ, welcome back @Fatpacks my nigga. I understand your boss at the agency is probably going to give you Christmas off (due to legal obligation if nothing else, I know glowies typically don't have the heart to do nice things like that of their own volition) but by all means please do stick around & continue wasting your time here throughout the holiday season, your probably-jeet new coworkers (my condolences on having to share your office with them now BTW) could really use some pointers from you on how to be just a little bit more genuinely funny and less cringeworthy with their demoralization work.
 
*Indian parasites prioritize other Indian parasites* - wow, what shocking news. Not like this hasn't been going on for years, if not decades at this point.

The actual news is FedEx just had to pay 100k fee for each of those new H1bs.
$100k per head in tax dollars that they've been awarded.
 
Sorry but if you post actual sources you'll get some fool opening up MS Paint to mock you. This thread really ought to be renamed Donald Trump Circlejerk Club.
Excuse me, I used imgflip to mock you. It wasn't MS paint.
As far as the Donald Trump circle jerk club goes, I've already proven I'm not a member. A few days ago I called him an insecure ugly philanderer that cheats on every wife he has because he's an asshole with ego issues.
Unlike you, when I'm getting attacked by everyone for having and unpopular opinion I dig my heels in and stand my ground. I took a beating the other night because I talked a bunch of trash about how I thought this whole "heritage American" business was lame and gay.
Not once that I try to blame it on "WAAAH THIS PLACE IS A CIRCLE JERK" No, I just stood by my convictions and took my licks like a big boy.
Stop being a whiny little bitch, recognize that you're dumb little biased youtube video didn't pan out and move the fuck on.

These statistics have always confounded me but I'm pretty sure it's a result of lots and lots of parents not teaching their kids jack fucking shit about finance (and perhaps not knowing anything about it themselves). It's so easy to just chip a bit into index funds every paycheck but somehow swathes of people know nothing about it, and I guess just count on social security for when they're old.
 
I think the new warships should be called Super Cruisers like the Alaska class was called.
The Alaska's were classed as "large Crusiers" and were the only ships typified as such by the US navy. The navy did not like the term "battle Crusier" despite the Alaska class having all the hallmarks of such a ship (armament of a battleship, light armor and speed of a crusier).
