Here we go…. Americans are suddenly finding it harder to land a job — and keep it The unemployment rate rose to a three-year high of 4.1% in June, with 6.8 million people unemployed. At that time a year ago, the unemployment rate was at 3.6% and 6 million people were unemployed. The rising unemployment rate — driven primarily by more people entering the workforce — means that it’s getting more competitive for job hunters to get hired. It’s just one of several signs of the changing narrative in the labor market. “We went from, ‘How is the job market defying gravity?’ to ‘Let’s hope it doesn’t hit the ground any faster,’” Luke Pardue, policy director at the Aspen Institute’s economic strategy group, told CNN. Pay increases are leveling off Job-switchers’ pay raises have pared down significantly from the “Great Resignation” period, according to a newly released analysis from Bank of America. In fact, median pay raises are just below 2019 levels, David Tinsley, senior economist at the Bank of America Institute, told CNN…. https://www.cnn.com/2024/07/08/economy/americans-harder-to-find-job/index.html

The American worker that’s getting replaced or watching his job go overseas would say otherwise. So will our producers. Such concern for the consumers. Cut their income taxes to nothing. Eliminate minimum wages - fast food is officially a luxury good now. Not all tariffs are bad let’s set the record straight here it’s far more complex then to tariff bad/good. Trump messaging is clear. He’s not going to get Congressional support for all tariffs or even his tax plans. But he’s successfully managed to destroy the belief that Democrats are the party of the American working man - because they are not. Republicans are having a hard time coming to grips with this. Long past time to stop catering to corporations especially the ones whose leadership hates this country.

Um. Listen Pedro. The Christian Conservative wing of the Party has an important role in MAGA. I wish we were a country where pop culture reveres the traditional family and its values that true liberals and conservatives share - but liberals hate Republicans so much they’ve decided bc conservatives can define a woman they have decided f them a woman is a vibe - those values are gone. This is a heathen nation. And if you’re the party of freedom and live and let live so long as we aren’t killing babies and telling 7 year old boys their interest in the color pink might mean they’re a girl you have to be open to everyone voting MAGA. I can tell you the event that told Republicans “listen, the country doesn’t want you to preach being morality anymore.” It was the response to the infamous Super Bowl wardrobe malfunction. Old school Christian conservatives went to war against the network. The actions that followed led to essentially the end of Good Howard Stern on terrestrial radio. And within a year Obama was elected. So until the culture changes you need to win elections by being as big tent as possible so long as core principles hold. MAGA is NOT about telling the LGBT community you have no place in MAGA. It’s the groomers that don’t.

Lesson. Never vote Democrat. This is how stupid they know their voters are. You keep going back for more.
