OT: American Politics

Core inflation 3.1 in July, so we are seeing the tariffs starting to creep into the data.

Fed is in a bind now. CPI is above target band (1.0 to 3.0), so that certainly doesn’t presage a rate cut. But employment numbers are fugly, which normally prompts a discussion for a cut.

So, Dotard has, out of thin air, created a paradoxical stagflation dynamic for policy makers. Damned if you do, damned if you don’t. August #s to be released in September will be massive, if they aren’t tainted…
 
Antoni will wreck the BLS. It’ll be a propaganda org.

Anyway, while it’s still possible to look at numbers, add the impact of tariffs to that CBO report. Massive reverse Robin Hood. Huge.
 
Nothing was a bridge too far for people.

Not the long list of nods to Nazism/white supremacy, associations with white supremacists, long time friendship with convicted pedophiles, dozens of rape accusations, explicitly saying he wanted to be a dictator, wanted to ignore the constitution. Not the fraud conviction, not the stealing of documents, not trying to overthrow the election. Not encouraging violence. Not admiring all of the world's dictators. Probably way more but I've lost track.

Stupid fucking morons still voted for him and still wandered in here to say things like "relax, the country won't really change at all, you're all overreacting. what's the worst that could happen to democracy?"

Age of Imbeciles, indeed.

(They don't show up here anymore because they're pussies though)

They voted for him to make you mad.

Triggered. Pwn the libs.

They’ll suffer any indignity to mock the libs.
