Donald Trump 2023 is Bill Clinton 1992/1996 winning with a plurality because of third party candidates in Wall Street Journal poll


 

West's alignment with Hamas and Kennedy's openly stated purpose as a spoiler candidate combine to make them chiefly candidacies hurting the incumbent Joe Biden, but everything depends on them getting on the ballot in enough places.

Perot bled votes away from the incumbent George H. W. Bush in 1992, and from Republican Bob Dole in 1996, resulting in Clinton winning each contest but not with 50% of the popular vote.

 

  • Trump 37, Biden 31, Kennedy 8, West 3, Manchin 3, Stein 2, Mapstead 1

    Once again, it was the idiot liberal Republican George H. W. Bush who advanced the anti-capitalist Democrat global warming agenda

     . . . the Inflation Reduction Act was signed by President Biden earlier this summer. It had been thirty years and sixty-five days since President George H.W. Bush signed the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change in Rio de Janeiro.

    Here.

    George also spawned the redundant hate crime legislation, huge increases to LEGAL immigration, wheel-chair access at every intersection's crosswalk among other expensive accommodations for the ambulatory handicapped, who in 2016 are fewer than 7% of the population, an unchastened Saddam Hussein, and READ MY LIPS . . . NEW TAXES.

    Oh yeah. He also literally spawned the guy who didn't keep America safe on 911 and gave us the expensive nation-building wars in Iraq and Afghanistan and the insidious Patriot Act, but don't get me started.

    Everything BUSH has been terrible for America, which is saying a lot when everything Democrat always is anyway.

    Joe Biden, the Puritan Catholic, is as bad as the libertarian Justin Amash ever was, making the perfect the enemy of the good, but sillier

    President Biden: "Every Time We Let Hate Flourish, We Make A Lie Of Who We Are As A Nation"

    "We're the United States of America. We're unique among all nations. We are uniquely a product of a document. Not an ethnicity, not a religion, not a geography, of a document," President Biden says. "Every time we're silent, every time we let hate flourish, we make a lie of who we are as a nation. I mean it literally. We can not let the very foundation of this country continue to be eaten away."

    This stupid, futile hate crime business was started by George H. W. Bush.

    You might as well outlaw human nature and roll out the guillotines.

    Hair on fire fundamentalism about the Declaration of Independence is no different than about the Constitution. The only thing Joe Biden is proving is that the left has its own strutting American exceptionalist fool, too.

    "Somebody, somewhere had a bad thought. America is finished!"

    LOL, Mittens joins Republican squishes Bush 41, Gerald Ford and John McCain in receiving the JFK "Profile in Courage" award

    Story.

    Mitt Romney voted to impeach Trump.

    Bush 41 raised taxes after promising not to ("Read my lips").

    Gerald Ford pardoned Nixon.

    John McCain sponsored campaign finance reform legislation in 2002, which was partially overturned in Citizens United in 2010.

    Romney's award is for Trump's first impeachment, not the second, for which Romney also voted, but I guess the six Republicans who joined Romney the second time are just chopped liver. That took took no courage whatsoever, apparently.

    In 1980 and 1984 ignorant young conservatives voted for Ronald Reagan never expecting his 1986 immigration amnesty nor Bush 41's opening of the legal immigration floodgates

    Peak Boomer 1957 turned 30 in 1987 and didn't have a clue about anything anymore than Gen X does now. @GodCloseMyEyes is blind. Racial anxiety today was caused by libertarian immigration policies put into place by Reagan and Bush, flooding the country with foreigners. We were ignorant as ignorant could be when we voted for these fools. The '60s riots were already ancient history.

    President Trump could easily veto these spending bills and get spending compromises from Congress, but won't because he's a wimp

    The narrow majorities of Democrats in the House and Republicans in the Senate mean there would be great difficulty achieving 2/3 majorities to override the veto except for the most necessary spending, which means Trump has the upper hand.

    President Trump is in the catbird seat when it comes to spending, but he does NOTHING. All he does is veto the occasional "Joint Resolution", which is meaningless to the taxpayer and in the same class as conservatism in this country, which has again been reduced to this or that irritable mental gesture.

    Donald Trump is a complete and utter fool who knows nothing about the power he has.

    Ann Coulter was right to say Trump has replaced Bush 41 as biggest wimp ever to serve as president.

    In sharp contrast to Donald Trump Boris Johnson fired everybody upon taking office, a sign he actually might succeed


    A "brutal cull" not seen in 60 years.

    Bush 41 did the same and ultimately failed because he betrayed Ronald Reagan, so we'll see, now won't we?

    There is no jobs boom but you'd never know it from the headlines

    Are all these stories written by twenty-somethings? They are an offense to anyone with a knowledge of history:


    "US adds robust 224,000 jobs in June" -- ABC

    "Strong hiring in June: 224,000 new jobs, 3.7% unemployment" -- CBS

    "Big month for jobs, big headache for Fed Chair Powell" -- NBC

    "U.S. adds 224,000 jobs as hiring rebounds in June, calming worries about the economy" -- MarketWatch

    "US labour market booms in June" -- BBC

    "The US labor market rebounds in June, adding far more jobs than expected" -- Business Insider

    "Jobs report smashes expectations" -- AOL 

    "Labor market comes roaring back as jobs see 'nice pop', economists say" -- MarketWatch


    Meanwhile, the facts.

    Trump has yet to put numbers on the board which distinguish payrolls as robust, strong, big, calming, booming, rebounding, smashing or roaring.

    For roaring you have to look back to Reagan and Clinton. Trump is not in their league. So far he's not even as good as Obama for putting up big months (granted, over eight years), and is merely one term president Bush 41-league, the best comparison for comparable time in office. It ain't over 'til it's over, but 30 months in Trump has just two big months to his name, that's it, and the clock is ticking on the longest, but nowhere near best, economic expansion in history.

    On a net population-adjusted basis there are as of 2018 5.2 million more Americans 16 to 64 years of age not in the labor force who used to be in it since low levels reached for respective age groups in 1989, 1995 and 1997, including one million fewer not in labor force age 25-54 since 1989. There are 2.8 million more 16-24 not in labor force in 2018 than in 1995 on a population adjusted basis, and 3.4 million more age 55-64 since 1997.

    5.2 million people actually sitting on the sidelines added to payrolls in a real jobs boom would boost current monthly levels by 108,333 on an average basis over 4 years, in other words, well above 300,000 monthly.

    Trump's popularity position suggests he's re-electable, but don't forget how Bush 41 utterly blew it

    Ahead of Obama, Reagan and Carter at this point in their presidencies, only Carter wasn't re-elected.

    If liberals had any brains, or principles, they'd crucify Trump over illegal immigration just as conservatives crucified Bush 41 over taxes, but they have neither brains nor principles. Bush 41 proves you can go from stellar to defeated in little over a year, but Trump, as old Republicans keep reminding us, is no Bush 41.
