Like widespread prosperity, including historically low minority unemployment.
It takes really dumb people to think that happens by accident.

BBC reports ..

19 July 2024
Donald Trump has addressed the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee, accepting the nomination as the party’s presidential candidate.

Crime rate rising .. apparently not.

Quote:Have all new jobs gone to ‘illegal aliens’ under Biden?
CLAIM: “The jobs that are created [under Biden] - 107% [<-??] of those jobs are taken by illegal aliens”
VERDICT: We can't find any evidence for this figure and the data shows millions of new jobs have gone to US-born workers.
The US Bureau of Labor Statistics produces figures for both US-born and foreign-born workers.
But it does not have a separate category for illegal immigrants and Mr Trump did not say where he got his figure from.
Since President Biden took office in January 2021, the number of US-born workers has increased by 7.8 million.
Over the same period, the number of foreign-born workers in the US rose by 5.5 million.

When I saw the "107%" from the original quote it made me wonder why Trump didn't have a fifth grader proof read his stuff so he doesn't look stupid.

Here are some of the real ones (should that not be such), and Comedy Central is part of the Establishment (i.e., kosher). KH is probably doing this deliberately, to avoid offering controversial personal opinions (and reduce risk of Biden-like blunders).

When looking at old footage of Trump when he was decades younger and more rational-speaking, I sometimes even wonder if his current buffoon persona could be a tactical, outer pretense (but seems a stretch). As either Sowell or Walter Williams once said, he seems to be opposite of everyone else: Started out mature and then gradually turned into an adolescent as he got older.

Claudius survived his family's slaughter by pretending to be a half-wit, and continued to use that facade to gain the upper hand over his opponents, via their repeatedly underestimating him in that manner. (His physical appearance and mannerisms, of course, were essential to the strategy.)

Yeah, keep telling yourself they're the same thing. You're great at self-delusion.

Already did. You just ignore inconvenient facts.
If you really think they're the same, you're as much a moron as she is. No wonder you defend her.

Again, if you can't see the glaring difference, that's on you. Both CC and I have offered plenty of examples.

Not if you lift people up by taking from others, using the force of government. That makes you a bully, because government can only punch down.
Biden sure had plenty of "beat down" rhetoric, while Trump's already had a record of a rising tide raising all ships... with historically low minority unemployment, etc..

Kamala is the queen of vacuous happy talk. It makes you feel good, but you have no idea about any of the actual policy goals.

Low-information voter.

I would support a soulful visionary with just a few general policy goals over a narcissistic sociopath with all the policy goals in the world. Every time. Policy is a matter of learning and pragmatism and working well with others. Sociopathy and narcissism otoh are inborn and permanent and fails at everything.

What do you make of this?

It won't let me cut and pastw   but he is promising "you won't have to vote again"

ss

“You won’t have to do it anymore. Four more years, you know what, it will be fixed, it will be fine, you won’t have to vote anymore, my beautiful Christians” he added.

“I love you Christians. I’m a Christian. I love you, get out, you gotta get out and vote. In four years, you don’t have to vote again, we’ll have it fixed so good you’re not going to have to vote,” Trump said.

Sleep easy,children?
