    I just do not get it. Tuberville, Trump and many other idiots spent months bitching about rates too high, consumer debt too high (it has been for over a decade), and people can not afford to finance a home for first-time buyers...

    They made the economy, FED rates, and stock market...political.

    Now the FED sees some numbers and decides it's time to cut rates (50 basis points) to help Americans and the FED sees it could cut rates more by the end of the year (helping Americans more)...

    What in the hell did Tuberville expect after making the economy so political that their fear-mongering tactic backfired especially when the S&P 500 briefly hit a record high today although Trump continues saying the markets under him are outperforming the current markets under Biden/Harris...


    The stock market has always been one of Trump's favorite metrics to reflect how he leads America as a business. It looks bad for Trump to keep trumping the idea that the stock market is performing badly under Biden/Harris or that only he can fix the stock markets.

    Yet, Trump may be confused and getting mixed up about his DJT stock. :D :p :rolleyes:

    Because she only wanted a 1/4 point cut. LOL that extra 1/4 was waaaaaaay too much for Tubby Tub Tub.

    From FED statement:-

    "Voting for the monetary policy action were Jerome H. Powell, Chair; John C. Williams, Vice Chair; Thomas I. Barkin; Michael S. Barr; Raphael W. Bostic; Lisa D. Cook; Mary C. Daly; Beth M. Hammack; Philip N. Jefferson; Adriana D. Kugler; and Christopher J. Waller. Voting against this action was Michelle W. Bowman, who preferred to lower the target range for the federal funds rate by 1/4 percentage point at this meeting."

    So vote for OrangeMan instead. Oh he started this tariff war to begin with, and wants to kick it into hyperdrive if reelected. But you do know Biden is stepping down next Jan right? :)

    (CNBC)

    Presidential prediction
    U.S. Vice President Kamala Harris is more likely to win the presidential election than former President Donald Trump, according to a CNBC survey. Out of the 27 respondents, who comprise investment strategists, economists and fund managers, 48% think Harris has a greater chance of winning, 41% think it’s Trump, while 11% are unsure.

    + + +

    Though as I've said many times already the only poll I care about is the Election Day poll.

    Dont be so innocent...you guys know this

    In early April, Trump traveled to Michigan, and during a speech, he called immigrants who may be in the country illegally “animals.” To contextualize, the former president said this while referring to criminal cases.

    This is the same guy falsely claiming Haitians are eating your pets, right?

    We will take him at the words he actually stated. No need for "sane-washing" to provide supposed 'context'.
