The Chairman of the Oklahoma College Republicans has been arrested for lewd and indecent proposals or acts to a child and sodomy - victim under 16. The Oklahoma GOP tells me we’ll be getting a statement from the RNC later tonight.
It's like they think by calling enough people groomers no one will notice that the GOP molests children.

pete, to the non - deranged, this is the main event, by far. Study estimates that inflation is costing the average american family over $700/month. Those people don’t care what the president of the Iklahoma college republicans is doing. This is what happened to bush during the subprime mortgage crisis. What goes around…

Total bs the avg American family didn’t have an extra 700 a month before inflation
Inflation costing Americans an extra $300 per month, analysis says more realistic
I doubt if your house hold income is over 100k your far from suffering

you’re right. they didn’t have it extra. So they are cutting back in basic things. And they aren’t happy, as you’ll see.

What does it say about Today’s Republican party that Donald Trump, a twice impeached former president who attempted a coup to overthrow our democracy is still the GOP’s leading candidate for president in 2024?

it says americans care about results - lower unemployment, lower debt, cheaper food, cheaper gas,lower interest rates, lower crime. That’s what it’s says.
That, plus many republicans ( not me) want to see if re electing him actually puts you guys in a mental hospital.

Gas prices have dropped very day for the past 25 days.
How can I get one of those pump stickers with Joe Biden and "I did this" on them? 
(Not to mention: 372,000 new jobs; Unemployment at 3.6%, a fifty-year low; Hourly wages up 5.1% as unionization sweeps the country.)

what are gas ovens today, compared to the day biden win the election.
unemployment is not at a 50 year low. it was lower right before the covid lockdown. look it up.
who cares if hourly wages are up 5.1% when inflation is at 8.5%? that means standard of living is lower.
You can’t win this.
and he S&P500 index had its worst first 6 months of a year, in 50 years.

Just a thought: George Soros is considerably older than Joe Biden and maybe, just maybe, he’s no longer up to running the sinister global conspiracy a lot of you are very deeply invested in. Sure, 30 years ago he could make bulls gay, turtles fly, and flan edible, but not now.
But you know the goal of Trumplicans is to make liberals heads explode, not do anything positive

nothing positive.
You did cartwheels when Bidens unemployment got to 3.6, but it’s not productive that trump had it at 3.5?
I’d just love to hear you explain that.

In 2020 70 million Americans voted for Donald Trump.
In 5 years none of them will admit to it.

The Federal Reserve reports U.S. corporate profits have surged 25%, which is the biggest annual increase in close to 50 years. Some lawmakers are accusing companies of using the pandemic and supply chain issues as excuses to raise prices.
But the highest inflation in 40 years Love to hear how that works

Your side controls the federal government. Why aren’t they doing anything? is it because CEOs are mostly democrats now, so the democrats are pandering to the powerful billionaires who donate to them?
Your side controls the executive and legislative branch. If a bad thing is happening on their watch, whose fault is not?

Inflation jumped again in June on a persistent climb in gas, food and rent costs, notching another 40-year high and likely solidifying the Federal Reserve’s plans for another big rate hike this month.
Prices increased 9.1% from a year earlier, up from an annual rate of 8.6% the prior month and the largest gain since November 1981. |
