Normality is a word, normalcy is not.

These types of essays - and it seems like there are more than a few - make me very suspicious. It’s as if they (they being the Left) are setting things up so they can be “happily surprised” that despite all odds, FJB wins by a landslide.

“The economy has been in a robust recovery for more than two years now “

This is what you get from lying propagandists at CNN.

“rising tide of good economic news”
........
Yeah, everyone is ecstatic with the ridiculously high prices of food, homes unaffordable, restaurants skyrocketing. Just wonderful. Joe and Janet “I’ll never retire” Yellen have got this!

These people are so removed from reality. Coupled with that they are pathological liars.

They're reporting what they know and for people like Fareed Zakaria, the economy is doing great!

You see, Zakarais doesn't shop at Walmart. He doesn't know anyone who shops at Walmart. Zakaria shops at Trader Joe's. He doesn't care if a loaf of artisinal gluten-free bread at TD's costs $12. He's a millionaire so that means nothing to him.

I meant rent skyrocketing not restaurants but they both work.

Well Fareed, maybe Your "expectations" about the upcoming election are all about where You permanently view the World from.

Every single employment number has been revised DOWN, inflation has skyrocketed. Taxes under a continued “Joe” as the Prop will take the savings of the middle class and raise the cost of everything…ON PURPOSE! The 100K Patriots that came to Wildwood yesterday are sick of it and want this corrupt Junta to be OUSTED.

Trump tax cuts are expected to expire in 2025.

An important piece of that legislation is that if you're a liberal living in a high tax state such as California or New York, you have to limit your SALT deduction to $10,000.

If Biden wins, liberals (from high tax states) will be able to claim an average of $20,000 from the SALT deduction

Trump will be better for the energy sector, the border, and the amount of new regulations, from day one.

After that he’ll need some help from a Congress that actually wants to pass a conservative agenda.

Which if the past is any indication of the future, is highly unlikely.

Yipes. After the X files worms under the skin episodes I thought I wouldn’t have to think about that stuff.

Comic said “If that worm entered Joe Biden’s skull it would die of starvation.”🧠

Fareed Zakaria…. I share Rush’s disdain for this man. How could anyone so intelligent be so simultaneously stupid?! Are he and former CNN employee Amanpour (Amanpour married a Jewish man BTW…. That did not lessen her anti-Semiism) just token hires to meet diversity requirements?!
