Schumer: People Have Negative View of Economy ‘Because They Remember’ How Things Were About a Year Ago
Breitbart ^ | 03/09/2024 | Ian hatchett

Posted on 03/09/2024 8:44:42 AM PST by ChicagoConservative27

On Friday’s broadcast of MSNBC’s “Morning Joe,” Senate Majority Leader Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-NY) stated that people have negative views of the economy “because they remember” how things were about a year ago under President Joe Biden.

Schumer said, “We had the greatest two years that we’ve had in a very long time, in terms of production for middle-class people, for American values.”

Later, co-host Joe Scarborough asked, “Let’s talk about the economy. … [W]e just got a new report in, breaking news, once again, job hiring blew past expectations…275,000 new jobs over the past month. You look at all the numbers, they’re historic, the best jobs numbers ever over the past three years, the jobless rate below 4% for the first time in 60 years, new business starts, up, as the President said, you look at manufacturing, up. I’m curious, you’ve been in politics a long time, how long does it take for the reality to catch up with the expectation?”

You know, with a NEW Credit Card, and a 10,000 spending limit. I could add furniture, buy a car, take a vacation and the household would think we were really doing good. Any spikes that look good, was all DEBT spending and someone is going to have to pay the Pied Piper.

. Chuck Schumer knows ‘the people’ are too stupid to understand their own lives... and he knows if they don’t ‘wise up’ soon he’ll set his thugs and goons from intelligence, the FBI and IRS on them and destroy their lives. So as in most hellhole countries run by thugs and goons and bullies... we better be happy about how well we’re doing.

The Democrat Party counts on people having short memories. If people had memories longer than two or three months, the Democrat Party would have a much more difficult time seizing control.

During a raging inflation, people buy now on the anticipation of higher prices later. We’re due for a crash in consumer spending.

Yeah, stupid deplorables to actually remember things.

We’re supposed to be like the masses in 1984, just swallowing the latest party li(n)e.

Some people remember how things were when Democrats weren’t in control. Just 4 years ago jobs were coming back because Trump was not letting foreign countries exploit us. Now they’re all leaving again.

We make a mistake if we think evil pricks like Schmukie are stupid. They are not. They are wicked and calculating. Everything they do and say is about getting and keeping power and control

He’s right if he’s talking about democrats - people who believe anything their ‘betters’ tell them.

But no, Schumer is wrong if he’s talking about our side. We haven’t been beaten down by white liberal elites to the point we can’t see how many fingers are being held up.

Re: "once again, job hiring blew past expectations"

Joe forgot to mention that the numbers reported in December and January were revised down 24.3%.

Speaker Johnson needs to rebut every one of these stupid Schumer lies...every time Schumer gets in front of a mic!

People have a negative view of the economy because groceries are more expensive TODAY!

People have a negative view of the economy because gas is more expensive TODAY!

People have a negative view of the economy because rent is more expensive TODAY!

People have a negative view of the economy because mortgage rates are higher TODAY!

Worse than 2023. The headline is actually to promote a summer MAO clothes sale. But it gives the food ## which is not included in their fakery studies.

Ignore the Fake headline, look at the food ##

That was missing in the Fake STOTU.

People like Schumer are a sad example of how personal ambition and self-deception can make you into a small unethical person.
