  1. Can we talk seriously about this? Trump’s economy over the first 3 years was fine. It continued a “mostly” positive trend seen during Obama’s first 8 years and leading up to 2020, produced no real signs of issues remotely like we saw in say, 2007. 2020 through 2023 should be thrown out. Nothing that happened within this period of time will remotely repeat itself in our lifetimes, and the effects we’re dealing with today need tremendous leadership to continue to overcome and that’s not going to come solely from the executive branch. We need more effective bipartisan leadership from within congress and the fed.
  2. Data is funny but at the beginning of Trump’s first term, there were roughly 550k cases of deportation on court dockets. When he left office, the number was around 1.3mm cases. Today, it sits at roughly 2.1mm cases. Don’t see a lot happening with deportation in the next four years. Work to control the influx and let’s go from there. Sorry bro.
  3. I think at this point, stop believing any projections. We’re no longer in an environment where anything going to happen can be accurately modeled.
  4. Thanks.
  5. Nope. Everyone.
  6. You are dense. The system is fucked but we’re built to withstand it. Bet you whatever amount you want we’ll be in the same situation in 4 years and be just fine.
  7. Yeah sure.
  8. Our country has moved away from healthcare being affordable. Go get the treatment and if you don’t pay? Guess what, no repercussions. Most all our politicians are worthless in this regard.
  9. As long as your wife keeps sleeping. Don’t wake her up. Never said better. I said we’ll be fine. We’re resourceful and this shit ain’t gonna matter.
  10. Think beyond it all you want. Face reality. We and everyone else are gonna be fine in 4 years.
  11. But your wife will have trouble sleeping?
  12. What makes you so special? My insurance dropped coverage for my kids to see their pediatrician this year and we have to start finding a new doctor next year. Maybe, just maybe, it’s the system that’s fucked. Politicians are worthless.
  13. 8 years ago was the end of times. 4 years ago was the redemption. 4 years from now will be whatever. Goddamn why are people so stupid.
  14. Bet you whatever amount of money you want you’ll be fine and the same as today in 4 years.
  15. She never should have been the candidate. Like ever.
  16. If your wife is sleeping soundly she’ll be doing the same in 4 years. Gonna be fine. Be an adult.
  17. The MSNBC denial is something else. It fucking is what it is.
  18. We’ll be fine. Set a calendar reminder for 4 years from now.
  19. None. Relax.
  20. He’s Lou Filerman. He’s new here.
  21. Probably true but people generally are dumb and sensitive enough that some measurable number may now feel compelled to go vote when they otherwise would have stayed home.
  22. This is a good one. The real version goes something like: “You want answers?” “I think I’m entitled.” “You WANT answers?” “I WANT THE TRUTH.” “Go fuck yourself.” Caffey arrested and court martialed. /end scene
  23. Worst to me on this series is Marty and Jennifer going to the future but their future selves are somehow there, too. Had they each gone forward 30 years, they should have simply arrived to missing person reports on themselves or featured in an Unsolved Mysteries episode playing on the TV in the cafe. Doc should have just come back to 1985 and said, there’s a problem with your kids, Marty, straighten the fuck up.
  24. IRL, Jill Masterson would absolutely have lived if painted gold. Thus would have circumvented her sister dying too trying to avenge her death.
