You can have a bad day or speech (I don't remember Trump's speech; but let's just say that was a bad day and last night was a bad one for Bloomberg) but the body of work has to be there. Bloomberg is just now getting involved on the ground but his poor performance last night far overshadows anything else he has done so far.

It's early and he's been elected to office before. Nothing can be taken for granted at this point.

He's an arrogant little jerk.
He always has that I'm smart
and you're stupid look on his
face. He ran NYC like a dictator,
telling them how much sugar
and salt they could eat, and
shaking down Blacks and
Latinos on the street for weapons.

He has 11 homes, 3 jets, and 5
yachts. You'd be arrogant to.

If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose.

Maybe it’s just you Triperino.

Real median household income, adjusted for inflation was $51,721 in 1986. By December 2018, it was $63,179. Family income is much higher than that.

The best part about it is there are seven million more jobs, more people working than ever before, and record low unemployment across every demographic.

Those CEOs you complain about, create and run industries. They invest in innovation and create new technologies that drive the world economy. They create and manage trillions in wealth, and create and protect millions of jobs. If Bezos, Zuckerberg, Cook, Dimon, and Musk had a year better than me, good for them.

FRED is calling BS on you Triperino.

Here

Investment in structures was down in 2019. Investments in intellectual property, R&D, and equipment, are up.

1) The first link you provided adds absolutely NOTHING to the debate we were having. Not sure why you linked it. We were debating the purchasing power a typical middle class family has today compared to pre trickle-down economics. This link contributes nothing to that discussion.

2) I was only quoting Jerome Powell in regards to business investment. I'm sure he's just deep state though. https://www.federalreserve.gov/newsevents/testimony/powell20191113a.htm

3) The Yardeni PDF you linked, the first graph, the last entry, shows a decline in total business investment. It's rare that somebody posts a link to a document confirming what you said while they were trying to provide the counter. Preciate it.

You are aware that trickle-down economics was first tried with the JFK tax cut of the early 1960s and caused the same kind of boom then as the Reagan cuts of the 1980s, are you not?

The President is a fink.

Is that show even on anymore?

Does the idea of liberals enjoying it really warrant three crying laughing emojis? Or are you just that desperate to kiss the butts of your fellow righties because you can never come up with anything clever to say to the “libbies” yourself other than pretending you have us blocked?
