That sounds great. Is it a wasted vote? I don’t know who that is but maybe lots of people do

Yeah, it's a wasted vote. At this point, I'm not sure who would NOT be a wasted vote. But I'm good with voting on principle.
posted by geeblockLol no one on this site has made a dollar from the trump administration.. haven’t lost but also haven’t made a dollar more than you would have. If you ain’t making over a million he has done nothing for you but continue the trend but please continue
My tax burden is lower and my 401k and IRA are both much higher now than in 2016. I have made many more “dollars” since Trump took office. I am also not rich.
Unless you have no job and have no money at all in the stock market, you have made money because Trump is in office. You may not want to admit it, but facts don’t care about your feelings.
posted by geeblockI would take that Beto guy from Texas if I like anyone. He seems like a person I could be down with
He seems like a middle school girl. Trump is still just the worst on social media, but "Bobby" O'Rourke is second. He's a middle school girl living in a young man's body.
Not saying he's not a cool person, but I sure as hell wouldn't want him representing me in the political arena.

I have stocks and they are doing fine just as they were doing fine for last 8-10 years. They were doing great last year, now they are back on the same trajectory they have been/should be. There isn’t some aha moment or anything special that I see, or have heard of but everyone’s situation is different for sure

Haha....... fine as in you didnt lose all your money? The stock market and the economy was a wreck under Obama. The ends dont justify the means in regards to the growth of the market under Obama. Your money was hogtied and did not grow. That profit with compounding interest will never be made up due to anti capitalistic agenda

In 2 years DJIA has averaged 20% increase year over year. In the last 3 years of Obama it averaged 6%. You are selectively ignoring facts to fit your belief, which is confirmation bias.

That’s also just one index. And an index is just a broad range picture of the market. Technically, depending on what gblock holds, he could be doing significantly better in his portfolio during those last three years of Obama versus first couple years of trump.
For example, if he holds a lot of international, he’s not happy these last few years.
Pointing out one fact about one index is also pointing out fact to fit YOUR belief.

If that is his profile then he deserves what he gets.
posted by CenterBHSFanConspiracy theory: The actor who was allegedly beat up by two MAGA wearing bigots.The police/investigators can't find anything to support his story. I actually think he was roughed up by somebody. But probably not by who he is claiming did it. Triple threat conspiracy: fetish gone wrong!
Looks like my wild conspiracy theory might actually have some validity hahaha!

JUST IN: Sources say possible ‘love conflict’ with two friends (‘suspects’) caused Jussie Smollett to accuse the two friends of being ‘perpetrators’ of a hate crime. It is highly likely that violence never occurred.

BREAKING:Police raided the home of two persons of interest in Jussie Smollett case last night. Both men are of Nigerian decent and have appeared as extras on the show. Police took bleach, shoes electronics and more.Officers asked family if they knew #Jussiesmollett.

Everyone but the liberal losers knew this was fake from the get go.
^^The CPD have already said that rumor is false. For two people who always post to wait for all the facts to come out before placing blame, you sure are quick to post half-facts in this case. Lol

ahh, I didn't see it. Thanks for giving the heads up! Also I should let you know that I don't always say "wait for all the facts to come out". It's fair to point out when/where I'm wrong but you don't have to put words in my mouth.
If you want to dig through my posts to gather up all these times I have said that, I'll wait for all the facts to come out ;)

It’s been weeks, not a couple of days. The dude is a liar. Maybe he got attacked, but not by 2 white maga dudes.
I just heard of this incident today.
I suggest some of you start caring less about shit like this. You're welcome.

Maybe he is, maybe he isn’t. I don’t think his story is 100% accurate. But I’ll wait to hear all the facts before making factual statements on what happened. You’re running with false rumors because it’s what you want to believe. Just admit it.

War is big business. A lot of tax money is spent on defense and will continue to do so.
It always employs quite a bit of people so I wouldn't be so quick to say just by pulling troops out that the govt is going to all of a sudden have all this extra money to spend on other things.

I agree that it is, but i'm not sure it should be.
If I were more liberal I would say that money would be better spent on healthcare and those people could be employed in the healthcare industry.

I can't be the only one who was completely fucked the last part of 2018. My 401k is currently at January 2018 levels.
