Motown Bombers

Gas prices are going to go down because of Biden. Amazing how someone in cognitive decline can break OPEC.

I trust the numbers that were released by the various bureaus under Trump. I mean, if they were lying, they would have made it better during COVID so Trump could get re-elected. I don't trust anything Trump says about the numbers. In a second administration I could see things being different.

This was spun to be bad news for blue collar workers that have no interest in Wall Street. I was told that we shouldn't expect rates to come down as soon as hoped. Our projections of by November have remained unchanged. People are still buying houses. They are still buying cars and boats. Still going on vacation. Default rates have remained unchanged. Wage increases, especially in lower to middle income ranges, is outpacing inflation. Consumer confidence is up. What is in trouble is commercial lending. Vacancy rates are at all time highs with more people working from home post COVID. Lenders over leveraged in commercial real estate could really be in a world of hurt soon.

The funny thing is that I'm in a weekly conference call where the CFO discusses the rates, trends and potential impacts. It's every Friday so I was literally just on the call this morning. It was mostly positive. My notes from the call were; the 10 year treasury yield was down under 4.3% from a recent high of 4.7%, mortgage volume has increased, inflation is trending down, and we still anticipate a rate cut sometime between September and November.

I work in a bank. I'm well aware of the rates.

I didn't ask for your opinion on rates. I simply posted the job numbers. When I want your opinion I will give it to you.

Even Fox News couldn't come up with that kind of spin.

I mean, we saw before what can happen in Florida if an election is close and the presidency is riding on Florida.

There’s many examples like this.

LOL what? Trump slurs his words at almost every speech he does. Trump has even admitted he has taken cognitive tests. Those tests are to test if you are in decline, it's to test how far along you are.

I mean, I never said anyone on this forum claimed that. I haven't seen "clear" evidence of this cognitive decline. What's amazing is you say your voting for Biden's chief of staff or Trump, and not acknowledging Trump's cognitive decline when there is numerous videos of Trump slurring his words and rambling incoherently.

Biden is old, in cognitive decline, and losing it. He is also an international criminal mastermind who can rig elections and trials.

Of course ewsieg provides no source so I have no idea what he's talking about.

Meanwhile, Biden just did an interview on national news. Watch David Muir's Exclusive Interview with President Biden on the D-Day Anniversary | ABC Updates

Michigan ranks 2nd in the country in the Election Performance Index. Georgia is 11th which is good but that doesn't capture that Georgia has been purging thousands of registered voters since 2020 that Michigan hasn't been doing. One thing where Georgia is worse than Michigan is average wait time to vote. It is over double in Georgia and the wait times are longer in black democratic areas like Atlanta.

They'll still blame Democrats. The Bernie Bros who sat out in 2016 or voted for Jill Stein blame Democrats for not doing something to stop Republicans.

Voter suppression will be an issue in Florida, however, the secretary of state for Michigan, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Arizona, Nevada and North Carolina are all Democrats. The only swing state that has a Republican secretary of state is Georgia and that is Raffensberger who didn't give into Trump although he is fine with voter suppression.

I’ll just drop this here

The police unions will still back Republicans.

One of the insurrectionist was an accomplished doctor. I think she even lost her practice. All over Donald Trump.
