I spent some time this morning screenshotting
Egg prices
Gas prices
Mortgage rates
Unemployment Rate
2x4 prices
1/2 cdx price
Stock market
A friend of mine very loudly told me how all those will be better, I told him I have some doubts but I hoped he was right.
We’ll see

I would like to get a print of that list, or a thread to compare the economics in the coming months as an exercise without political content being added

You can make a list, ten minutes with your phone
GasBuddy
Hannaford
Home Depot
Lending Tree
Google

As far as a nonpolitical discussion of a politician’s promises, I doubt that will happen.

Frasier: Niles, I’ve just had the most marvelous idea for a website! People will post their opinions, cheeky bon mots, and insights, and others will reply in kind!

Niles: You have met “people”, haven’t you?

Some of THE hardest workers I’ve seen in the last decade are immigrants and I’m sure a large percentage of them are very concerned tonight. I’m sure (haha) there are an equal million of hard working white young US born people just ready to get right in there and pick your produce, roof your home, landscape your property, deliver your packages and take care of you on your night out or vacation.

And the proper process has always been to increase legal immigration but here we are 35 years later with that being ignored.

That problem has been around for a long time, Trump didn’t fix it the first time around, killed a bill attempting serious reform and this time around will be an absolute sh*t show, with implications he frankly couldn’t care about.

Some people have a problem with deporting illegal immigrant criminals. I do not. We have some people that have threatened or alluded to leaving the country if Trump was to get elected. I hope they will but i'm afraid they are just full of #^&#^&#^&#^&

The deportations begin soon and i support that 100%.
