Many "commentators" on NPR came across as hoping something terrible would happen to the economy. They are "predicting" a recession. Bloomberg financial even had to say that the economy is in the longest boom in decades.Originally Posted by Guisslapp
Your boy Obama was 1/4 black, but called himself and AFRICAN american. What a bogus...not even close to black "person" he was. BTW, was he even a citizen of the USA?
Recessions are normal and better than letting asset misallocation continue indefinitely. Doesn’t change the fact that the market reflects the assumption of rate cuts to stimulate a slowing economy.
What? Pelosi and Reid hammered Bush on the "recession" (which Pelosi and Reid caused and not Bush) during McCain's run in 2008.
I am not Pelosi or Reid.
...but you loved McCain and that fake Mormon when they ran.
In the Quinniac (sp?) poll, Harris has edged closer to Biden, think it was something like 22% to 20% Warren was 3rd, Sanders 4th. I think. Something like that. Even if you assume the polls are accurate...yeah, right!... have to remember they represent a snap-shot of a very small sample size.
One thing that I have noticed though, is no matter the poll, no matter the news/recent events, Sanders is consistently polling 4th. If the polls were truly volatile then one would think Sanders would capture a higher finish on occasion.
Okay, just saw this poll flashed on TV, Warren 14% Sanders 13%...
I'd be concerned if I were in the Sanders' camp.
Lots of Trump flags being flown in Florida this weekend.

Looks similar to a NASCAR event (minus the confederate flags).

From Robert Johnson BET founder this morning:
Robert Johnson, the founder of Black Entertainment Television and the first black American billionaire, said the Democratic Party has gone too far left, according to CNBC.
Johnson's comments came during a Tuesday interview with CNBC's Hadley Gamble.
"The party in my opinion, for me personally, has moved too far to the left," Johnson said. "And for that reason, I don't have a particular candidate (I'm supporting) in the party at this time," he said. "I think at the end of the day, if a Democrat is going to beat Trump, then that person, he or she, will have to move to the center and you can't wait too long to do that."
Johnson conceded that President Trump has the economy working well so far, saying Trump deserves an "A+" on that front.
"I think the economy is doing great, and it's reaching populations that heretofore had very bad problems in terms of jobs and employments and the opportunities that come with employment … so African-American unemployment is at its lowest level, " Johnson said.
"I give the president a lot of credit for moving the economy in a positive direction that's benefiting a large amount of Americans," he said. "I think the tax cuts clearly helped stimulate the economy. I think business people have more confidence in the way the economy is going."
Johnson supported Hillary Clinton in 2016. But, at this early stage in the Democratic primary, he isn't sure who he will support out of this cycle's group of Democrats. But he does believe he knows what the American people are looking for.
"At the end of the day, the American people are looking for someone who can deliver economically and deliver on opportunities," Johnson said.
And just think if Pres. Trump had a cooperative Congress, Judicial, and bureaucracy working with him to solve problems, rather than being roadblocks. Heck, by now, I think Trump would have us at 0.0% unemployment, an infrastructure largely rebuilt, would have cured cancer, found the USMNT a true striker, had the whole world singing Kumbaya...and who knows what else?
He had a cooperative Congress for a couple of years and he ran up the structural deficit.
I would not call the last two Republican House Speakers huge Trump fans.. They are more never Trumpers. Both are now probably working as lobbyists making 7 figure salaries.
In the private business world, Trump ran up more debt than anyone other single person. Old habits are hard to break, I guess.
