Article written by former Trump staffer Mick mulvaney, he was OMB director and then acting WH chief of staff
[democrats] are complaining more and more about a relatively new, entirely fabricated, but certainly sinister sounding boogeyman that could steal away the election: the “Electoral College bias.” Nothing screams “we are going to lose” more than saying the game was rigged in the first place.
No sir, the electoral college is a known shit process
Do conservatives even like Trump? He's had a disastrous effect on the economy, the environment, the military, our rights, and our respect from the rest of the world... what exactly is he conserving other than a stream of offenses listed in this community's rule #1? There's nothing conservative about that man, nor liberal, nor any other political ideology: just narcissism.
Y'all can do better than this. Get back to your roots and bring some actual constructive policy proposals to the table; stop falling on the sword for this conman.
The issue this year, without a doubt, is the economy again
The economy is actually in much better condition, now.
You can tell the article was written by a man because it pretends abortion rights aren't the elephant in the room.
I agree abortion is the big elephant. I support abortion which makes me out of alignment with many conservatives. If you look when it goes to vote, abortion is protected. That means many conservatives are like me but just not vocal about it.
The economy is not better since Biden took office. Average wages & household incomes have been stagnant but inflation over that period was over 15%.
You need to step out of your echo chamber once in a while... whether you want to blame the pandemic or Trump, Biden received a steaming pile of shit and the general consensus from all objective analysts, regardless of party, is that the Biden administration has done an admirable job under very difficult circumstances.
Please, support whoever deserves your support, but do not base it on the rumor mill. Please look at real, actual facts and then make an educated decision instead of an emotional decision.

The annual inflation rate was 0.1 percentage point lower than August and is the lowest since February 2021.
This means that inflation is now lower under Biden than under Trump.
The Hill (notoriously conservative) - 17-SEP-2024
It’s official: America’s real wages are up under Biden-Harris
Separately:
In August 2024, inflation amounted to 2.5 percent, while wages grew by 4.6 percent. The inflation rate has not exceeded the rate of wage growth since January 2023.
You posted a wall of text but couldn't provide a link to your source.

If you look at the table you'll see inflation was low in Jan and Feb of 2021 then rose.
Can't help you if you are dead set against learning... good luck in life.
Sounds like someone didn't have evidence to support their claim.
No, I'm just not willing to play your stupid fucking game where you make me do all of the work while you sit around and chuckle to yourself that you're such an edgelord. There is nothing I quoted there that isn't readily available with 1 minute of your effort on Google. The only thing you have proven is that you don't care about the truth.
...so you can't provide a link. I did, it showed inflation below 2% in January & February of 2021 then jumped in March and hasn't been below 2% in any month since.
you can’t provide a link
Again, you're being obtuse. I chose not to provide a link. I'm not going to do all of the work for you. The information is readily available; you just have to remove your head from your ass and look at it.
You can't provide a link that supports your position, you made a claim you can't back up and now your clinging to I'm not going to do work for you.
On top of that nothing you've provided shows inflation is not way up during Biden's administration.
*Openly prepares to cheat in front of an apathetic public and rigged court*
*Opines that the other side is worried*
??? Tfdijr
I mean other than being an asshole, he isn't wrong. We're going to lose because of the electoral college (but mostly because of Citizens United and propaganda...)
