Okay, I spent some time reading this deeply and learning about Ludwig. I offer the following observations: 1) The piece is well-written, but it doesn't offer any kind of baseline for what the metrics should be. 2) To that end, the piece does not say if these poorer voters overperformed for Trump or not. 3) There is great skepticism over the LISEP adjusted unemployment numbers and other metrics. 4) Economic data and consumer sentiment have previously been tightly linked. It's only recently that they have diverged. 5) Even using LISEP's own metric, unemployment hit an all-time low in 2023.

So we’re not even pretending to want actual policy from Musk so long as we can Own Da Libs, huh?

Woah woah woah. Why are you citing the filthy communist USAID-funded Politico? It’s a good piece. Luckily, Trump has many policies that are certain to fix all the pain the lower class is feeling.

Your take is starting to grow mold.

No, don’t think that’s true but thanks for trying.

Of course not. If Elon executed his plan as a systemic and careful review of spending, followed by a public report and recommendation to Congress, I’d really have no issue with it. His methods are unconstitutional, insipid nonsense designed to generate outrage. Why do you think Charlie Kirk and the like were foaming at the mouth watching the USAID signage come down?

Elon could tell you guys to stop breathing and you’d reach for a plastic bag. I’ll wait for a real source.

How do you think that research was funded?

Helping eradicate AIDS is a fine use of our money

This will lower gas prices

Or it’s simply the new MAGA word of the day that programs you to be mad

So stop with the logical fallacy and I’ll stop posting it

Whomp whomp

BUT WHAT ABOUT BUT WHAT ABOUT BUT WHAT ABOUT BUT WHAT ABOUT

Well first off I’m glad to hear you beat cancer. That’s wonderful. Second, I’m not sure what cures there could be. Cancer is a mutation of your personal cellular DNA, it’s not like eating a ton of bananas can cure it. Steve Jobs tried it. Third, I agree about lowering cost of payment. Unfortunately, the ultimate option - a public healthcare system replacing our bloated and inefficient private one - will never see the light of day in America.

Just a fantastic guy! Really glad he’s out there keeping us safe.

The guy is 53 years old. This is why his wives left him.

None, thank god. What does that have to do with anything?

This is such a tired conspiracy. Companies like Pfizer would crawl over each other to market a true 100% proven cancer cure. That said, research has cancer mortality rates at the lowest they’ve ever been. It’s a medical marvel.

This is fine. Keeps the name but removes the confederate. That’ll do.

I love a good romance story ❤️

Oh hey it’s the pebble in my shoe

The migrants might have measles and lice. They should be shaved and then sent to the big showers, right?

I’d ignore the poll. It’s way too soon since the election, and respondents are going to have Harris in mind. I wouldn’t seriously look at polling until next year. No, the problem with the Dems is that the old guard of Pelosi, Schumer, etc are absolutely driving it. They have no idea how to message against MAGA populism. They should be POURING statements out about Trump’s unconstitutional cuts to USAID and other agencies, hauling Elon in front of Congress, and demanding transparency, but the best they can do is scrape up a committees.
