There will always be something. The Southern Border is a problem? Biden will handle it if its a problem. And you can give Mike Johnson credit
“It was a notable rebuke of President Joe Biden by a fellow Democrat”
Joe Biden’s souther border has gotten so catastrophically bad that a Democrat governor has finally decided to take action. Democrat Governor Katie Hobbs in Arizona has just ordered the Nation…therightscoop.com
Reports indicate the White House and Republicans in Congress are at work on a deal that would tighten border security in exchange for OK’ing aid to Ukraine —
So don't worry. Uncle Joe's got you.

You giving me homework? Stop it.So which POLICIES are responsible for these "headlines?" Please be SPECIFIC.
And then don't blame Biden for inflation if you aren't going to fix him when the government you don't believe in fixes the problem.
You wouldn't understand. Because you don't believe in government. Like Trump, the details of how Biden gets shit done would bore you.
I love it how Trump is responsible for supposedly MAGA sometime between 2016-2020 but Biden doesn't get credit for all that's going on, unless it's bad.

Inflation. Did you see gas just went down?Why are the lower half of US wage earners struggling to put food on the table and pay their rent?
Another reason, rent. Landlords raised their rent A LOT recently. Too much. What do you want to do about it?
Suddenly you cons want the poor and lower middle class doing better? I call bullshit. Should McD pay more? Should their employees unionize?
I bet you say kick immigrants out. You don't realize Republicans/Corporations don't want to pay any more than $15 hr. So don't ask why they are struggling. The answer is $15 hr.

3 Reasons from the past week's headlines.
The current unemployment rate is 3.7%.
Dow hits record high as stocks cap longest weekly winning streak since 2017
US inflation hits its lowest point since early 2021 as prices ease for gas, groceries and used cars

Look at these funny guys putting so much into polls.
Remember, polls are a one day snapshot. Was this before or after Trump quoted Hitler this weekend and praised Putin?
Polls are a one day snapshot. Like a sunset. Don't worry, they'll be another one tomorrow.
Also, consider this. Polls are an indication of what is to happen at the next election. So obviously elections are more important than polls right? How did you do this year in KY, OH and Virginia elections last month? You lost? How did you do at the midterms?
Unless you show me that polls accurately predicted your red wave was going to be a dribble or that KY, OH and VA would turn Blue, fuck off with your polls.
And, do these people know Biden fixed everything? He MAGA

And my dad says "did they call you?" Nope. Did they ask all the young women who right now haven't even thought about voting next year but when Taylor Swift tells them Republicans are trying to ban abortion....Polls are a snapshot that day. A year out Hillary had Trump by his pelotas.

... when Swift tells all women to regster and vote their needs then it will be over for Trump and MAGA.

Every 4 years the Democrats pretend to still be the Party of the working class even though that Democratic Party died 50 years ago. Empty promises, and bottom up economics have never worked and never will work. Create a better business climate and tax policies for small businesses so they can afford to pay workers more. You can't just mandate 15 bucks/hour that will close many small businesses and create more unemployment.Inflation. Did you see gas just went down?

You don't need to. Starting wages these days are over $15/hr.You can't just mandate 15 bucks/hour that will close many small businesses and create more unemployment.

Oh give me a break. The corporations aren't going to pay more when they make more. Not without unions. We already know this. From 1978 to now CEO pay went up 1322%. Your pay only went up 18%. Wake the fuck up.Every 4 years the Democrats pretend to still be the Party of the working class even though that Democratic Party died 50 years ago. Empty promises, and bottom up economics have never worked and never will work. Create a better business climate and tax policies for small businesses so they can afford to pay workers more.

You can give a corporation all the profits and tax breaks you want. That's not going to lead to them paying all their employees better. What a joke. Your reply is pathetic.
You want to save the middle class?
Democracy - Not "The Free Market" - Will Save America's Middle Class
Here are a couple of headlines for those who haven't had the time to study both economics and history: There is no such thing as a "free market." The "middle class" is the creation of government intervention in the marketplace, and won't exist without it (as millions of Americans and Europeans...

If inflation outpaces $15 then the government should raise the minimum wage again. Each time inflation happens. That'll stop inflation from happening. The corporations who raise their prices won't do it because they'll know what will come next.You don't need to. Starting wages these days are over $15/hr.
COLA. Min wage should be tied to inflation. If inflation goes down, minimum wage goes down too.

From what I see, a little over half of small businesses pay 15 an hour. That leaves around 15 million small businesses that don't pay 15 an hour.You don't need to. Starting wages these days are over $15/hr.

That means wages are as high as their going to get. Right now we have 10 million unfilled jobs. A lot of them are fast food. But they refuse to pay any more than they do now. Even if they need the help, they won't pay more than $15.
$10.33 an hour
Michigan's minimum wage
If any company can get away with paying less than $15, that's the employees fault. They should know they could go find a better job but maybe they like where they work even if it only pays $11 hr.
And in this great economy, you can't complain that you are only making $10.33 an hour. Go get a better job.
But Republicans, don't pretend you want to pay more than $15. In fact you fought $15 remember?
I told you guys when the unions got raises, all you right to work bitches would start to complain and unions will bring your wages up too. It's already happened if half of small business are paying $15 and we have 10 million unfilled jobs.
Last thing. Did you know that the Feds put a cap on rising wages? When wages got too high, they raised interest rates to cool down the hot economy. If they had to they would have done it again but it looks like Biden has MAGA

Did you see this?You won’t catch Fat Donnie near a bike
Household wealth swelled at a record pace during the pandemic. From 2019 to 2022, the median net worth of American families jumped 37% to $192,900, after adjusting for inflation. It’s the largest increase ever recorded by the federal Survey of Consumer Finances, released last fall. Surging home values and rising stock ownership fed the surge.
