With less than one year to go until Election Day, the polls show that we are beating Joe Biden by wide margins both nationally and in the battleground states—and young people are a major part of the reason why. A recent NBC News poll found that we are leading Biden 46 percent to 42 percent nationally among voters ages 18 to 34—a clear sign that young Americans are rejecting Joe Biden's reign of failure, incompetence, and corruption.
During the first Trump administration, we created the strongest and most prosperous economy in the history of the world. Under my leadership, annual incomes went up by more than $6,000, inflation was under 2 percent, and we had gasoline down to $1.87 per gallon. Household net worth reached an all-time high, with the bottom 50 percent of American households seeing a 40 percent increase in their net worth.
The U.S. economy had never been better for young Americans, but for the past three years, young people have borne the heavy costs of the failed Biden agenda: crippling inflation, soaring prices, skyrocketing interest rates, unaffordable housing, and escalating crime. Over the course of the Biden administration, real incomes have gone down by $7,400 per family. Gas prices reached as high as $7 a gallon in some places. Cumulative inflation is 18 percent. And mortgage rates are pushing a brutal seven percent—making home ownership out of reach for countless young Americans.
When I was in office, the 30-year mortgage rate reached a record low of 2.65 percent—and the median-income American family could afford a mortgage. Yet thanks to Biden's disastrous economy, interest rates have skyrocketed, making home-ownership out of reach for too many Americans, especially young Americans who in previous generations would be looking to start a family. As a result, historically high numbers...

It is interesting that Newsweek is occasionally publishing conservative opinion pieces.
If he accomplishes just ONE thing in his 2024 plus presidency, lowering gasoline prices to the 2 dollar level, EVERY other thing you're facing as difficult or impossible, will follow suit and you WILL have hope for your future.
Economic reasons. Bidenomics. Oh the irony.
sounds great! but the beloved establishment is going all out on Nikki McRomBush Haley...
I was thinking about those mortgage rates. Back in the late 70s, I took out a loan for a home which started out easy enough, but later turned into a conventional loan with (I believe) 8.25% interest. Paid it off early to escape some of that interest, but how come nobody was whining about that rate of interest back then? Of course, the economy was not into “Bidenomics” at that time or I could never have paid it off early. The only thing that saved my bacon back then was being able to draw S.S. & work for wages at the same time.

Ah yes, the Carter administration. Just for the record people did their bitching at the voting both and elected Reagan in a landslide.

Wish Western Union was still around that would be a great thing to wire to Biden without the risk of being hacked.
We're way beyond pretty faces and have a better sense of what's happening in the political and conspiratorial worlds.
We are much more capable now to explain to the publik skool kidz what they should know and advise them correctly.
Y'kin lead a horse to water . . . etc. . . . and we have no guarantees, but we DO have awareness and (I want to believe) the balls to act against criminality and fraud.

Donald J. Trump as POTUS 47 will MAKE AMERICA GREAT FOR EVERYONE!
