I linked to the forbes article which gives the full context. Jeezus, don't you read? I guess not.You posted a text brick of dry statistics, with no underlying context of how those alleged numbers were achieved.
The party man bolus that you've been vomiting up has been posted and parsed here for years....You're nothing new.
There it is gang....Style over substance.....And a rather snooty rejoinder over it at that.No more than a Transylvanian Transvestite farting in a public toilet, and no one hears it.
So, when you quote Shakespeare, what good is it, if you do not possess wit, yourself?
Or, as Shakespeare would say :
So, when thou dost cite the Bard, what merit holds it, pray, If in thine own discourse, dear friend, wit finds no place to stay?
But, apparently, Hamlet didn't pay attention to Polonius when he uttered his famous soliloquy
Here's the point, when you quote someone, quote a real someone, and not a fucking character in a play.
If that were true, you'd have a point,We have an obviously demented president and a giggly V.P. and the federal government seems to be run by a phantom unelected cabal while foreign policy is laughable and domestic policies are going down the drain but lefties are stuck on hatred and anger about the former president. That's a phenomenon in need of professional help.
Here are a couple questions that aren't asked:I linked to the forbes article which gives the full context. Jeezus, don't you read? I guess not.
They say ignorance is bliss, so you must be happy as a bird eating marijuana seeds.

The OP has been smoked out as the poseur that he is.
You could have had a much shorter and easier post to read if you had just posted, "orange man bad". The disease is effecting lefties and it is called TDS, which also makes them want to take people's rights away. And, there is a deep state, democrats wanting to control the media, and abuse of power on a massive scale to take out your enemies. And talk about vote suppression, you lefties want to suppress the votes of tens of millions of Americans.Over the years, I have witnessed a phenomenon occurring primarily on the right, that many of those on the right, which has burgeoned since Trump (though it has been going on for much longer than that), that their minds have become a bucket of mush filled with thought-terminating clichés ("TDS" "deep state" "fake news" "commies" "leftists" etc) and tired right wing tropes which are engineered to curb critical thinking and kill dissent, with the specific purpose of making the base compliant, complicit, and complacent.
As a man of 72 years, I've heard similar tropes going back to the days of the John Birch Society in the 60s. Their radical views were tolerated by the conservative leaders, but they gradually took things too far and William F Buckley, the granddad of conservatism during those years, as the founding member of the National Review, pushed the group to the sidelines. Once Buckley passed, the right no longer had a filter, and the group morphed into the T party, then the Freedom caucus, and now they are the MAGA movement, and in Trump, they have found their champion Trump, slightly older than myself, must be acutely aware of the history of the GOP, and how to manipulate their flock, and he easily took over the party, he knew the tropes they wanted to hear.
Make no mistake, Trump does not believe a word of what he says, he knows the types of right wing thought-terminating clichés will control his fock, and controlling his base is all he is interested in. In fact, Trump has changed parties no less than 6 times. During his Celeb Apprentice days, he was a democrat, we have videos of him praising democrats during this time, and this is because he knew that celebs are mostly liberal, and naturally he was a dem to curry favor with celebs. But to run for president, he knew the right would be much more receptive to a billionaire, so suddenly, he is now a 'Republican'. The point is, he is whatever the situation demands, he has no core values, he is the quintessential opportunist, the word's greatest conman, and PT Barnum would have loved him, and WC Field's famous quote, "You can't fool all of the people all of the time, but you can fool some of the people some of the time, and........it's just enough to make a good living".
Ask yourself: Why does a billionaire solicit donations? Well, for a conman, if one can, then, why not?
THere is a reason Trump is under attack. It's not because of blind hatred. It's because we, on the left, are not infected by Trump, he has chosen your side so it is much easier for us to see right through his methods. He's using all the same tricks every demagogue in history has used, and it's so obvious I wish I could get on the roofs across the land and shout it, but the right's minds are closed, Trump has successfully mesmerized millions, and they are compliant, complicit, and complacent, it's as if it were right out of an Orwellian script. We loath Trump BECAUSE he doesn't have your interest in mind, only that of Trump, and we don't want such a man ever to have his finger on the nuke football, if you don't mind. This isn't blind, this is well reasoned, well thought out and well understood.
Our intentions are just, and for the national interest. Trump is a threat to US National Security, and he must be stopped by any legal means possible. It is sad that many on the right cannot see it, but there it is. But some sensible souls on the right are with us, such as the good folks over at the Lincoln Project. Read Rick Wilson's book, 'Everything Trump Touches, Dies'. Listen to the videos of Steve Schmidt, another co-founder of the Lincoln Project. it is their goal to resuscitate the GOP to it's original conservative traditions and roots, and Trump has taken it astray, and they know, as we know, he is taking the GOP right over a proverbial cliff. His movement will be disastrous, should Trump win a second term. His only motivation now, is not policies for the good of our country, his motivation is REVENGE, and only revenge, and that is the wrong reason to be president.
Once the MAGA cultist's brain is infected, it appears that for most, there is no escape, resistance, it seems, for many, is futile. They have been programed, via months and months of repetition and propagandistic oratory and TV punditry by Sean Hannity, Lou Dobbs, Mark Levin et al., causing the MAGA base to hate the left and accuse the left of that which they are complicit, which IS the intent of the program by their right wing controllers, who do not have their (or your) best interests in mind, only that of Trump and his ilk. These facts are coming to light in the Dominion law suit. Fox pundits have knowingly been going along with the scheme and have been intentionally lying to their base. However, Fox will not report on the Dominion law suit, but you will find all about it on YouTube.
Some have made it out, but few are so able.
If you haven't, try and escape, you'll be glad you did.

Rumpole.
Here are a couple questions that aren't asked:
How many of those "created jobs" are in the bureaucracy?...Pro tip; those aren't jobs that produce real "product" for the GDP.
Bubble economies (which are a feature of leftist policy) create jobs as a matter of course....How many republicans were handed these bubbles?
Again, those and many more aspects of your DNC boilerplate numbers have bee discussed and parsed over the years....Quit pretending that you're revealing things nobody has seen before.
The president had two brain embolisms and he is unable to answer questions that aren't scripted. China is flexing it's muscles about Taiwan, the crime rate is out of sight, kids are dying from fentanyl poisoning brought over by a million illegal aliens from all over the world. What's the point again?If that were true, you'd have a point,
Cheers,

I'm not a republican, moonbat.This is how it is with republicans, facts don't matter.
How does one win with such folks? One cannot.

my bad, shit.Now you let him change the subject.....Prepare for an avalanche of text bricks of dubious statistics and other general smoke blowing.

The following is a collection of definitions of projection from orthodox psychology texts. In this system the distinct mechanism of projecting own unconscious or undesirable characteristics onto another is called Freudian Projection.Reread the first paragraph.
...... their minds [Trump loyalists] have become a bucket of mush filled with thought-terminating clichés ("TDS" "deep state" "fake news" "commies" "leftists" etc) and tired right wing tropes which are engineered to curb critical thinking and kill dissent, with the specific purpose of making the base compliant, complicit, and complacent.
From the moonbat who repeatedly restates DNC boilerplate talking points as though they're his own thoughts.An independent thinker you most certainly are not.
There it is folks....It's not about policy.....It's 100% emotional incontinence, 100% of the time.
You are the poster boy for TDS, Gomer Pyle.
I certainly appreciate your well thought out response. But there is a major problem if you think that there’s any justification for Black Lives Matter when there are poor white people starving on the streets of America I don’t know what to tell you. This is a critical platform of Democrats a major platform is race division the idea that white people are privileged including homeless people and that blacks are discriminated against in America is not only an insult to America it is flat out false.Both Trumps' $2 trillion stimulus, and Biden's $2 trillion stimulus, plus the world wide supply chain disruptions, caused the inflation.
Inflation is caused by the infusion of too much fiat currency into the marketplace faster than GDP can absorb the dollars, resulting in phenomenon where there are too many dollars chasing too few goods. The stimulus necessary to prop up the economy because of the massive shut downs due to the pandemic. There was no way to know how much was necessary, so both administrations deemed that it was better to do too much, than too little. so, too much caused inflation, and inflation is the price we payed in order to prevent what would have happened, massive depression and massive deflation, which are far worse.
But, of course, now the right it exploiting this for political points, as you are doing now.
The problem is systemic, and has been going on for decades. It's not a recent phenomenon. WE did fine with the world currency reserve was the pound sterling, so we will be okay. Don't let hysterics on the right freak you out.
BLM is a not a democratic phenomenon. It is a reaction to the floyd killing and a reaction against police brutality. That blacks tend t to vote for dems is an incidental fact, not a causal fact.
I'll put it to yu this way. any billionaire who is a billionaire and not lying who is asking for donations is a crook, and those who give him money are suckers.
That's not only false, both are doing relatively well, Jobs are about 3.5% under biden and that is the real measure of the economy. Anything under 4% is considered optimum. but under Trump, he killed any effort to tackle climate change.
That, for me, is the deal breaker. Trump is a threat to the National Security of the planet.
What more to be said? Simple, pure horseshit. Homelessness has always been a problem, and even more so when Reagan defunded mental health facilities when he was Gov in CA.
I don't even like Trump. Didn't vote for him in 2016, don't want him to be president again. But, I can see the massive abuse of power the left have been doing from taking people's rights away to controlling the media, to witch hunt investigations, to vote suppression, and beyond.Reread the first paragraph.

It won't come to you until you release yourself from the Trumpian stupor which has gripped your soul.
An independent thinker you most certainly are not.
The dude is projecting like mad.....It's what moobats do.I don't even like Trump. Didn't vote for him in 2016, don't want him to be president again. But, I can see the massive abuse of power the left have been doing from taking people's rights away to controlling the media, to witch hunt investigations, to vote suppression, and beyond.
