    even the extreme MAGA base thinks that Bidenomics is doing great

    MTG compares Biden to FDR, LBJ.
    The uber ludicrous lawmaker from Georgia did Biden a solid this weekend,
    telling GOPers the Dem President is fiendishly attempting to make people's lives better.


    Her latest attempt to disparage Bidenomics went awry, attributable to her ignorance of US history.
    It prompted a mocking response from the Biden White House, which Twitter users suggested was
    Dark Brandon” striking back at the extremist Republican once more.





    Brandon Owes a thank you to MTG for the free campaign ad!

    Biden video mocking Marjorie Taylor Greene speech
    hit more than 30M views in 12 hours





    The video received the second-highest impressions on a Biden video since he was inaugurated, only behind his reelection campaign launch video that dropped in April.

    The video received more than 34 million views as of Wednesday around 10:30 a.m. and more than 10 million of those were in the first three hours since it dropped.
    It also received more than 200,000 shares and more than 2 million engagements as of Wednesday morning
    .


    Greene’s speech at Turning Point USA was intended to attack the president on policy issues. But, the Biden campaign video set the speech to uplifting music
    as she lists the president’s agenda and legislative priorities and compares him to former Presidents Lyndon B. Johnson and Franklin D. Roosevelt.

    “I approve this message,” Biden said on Twitter, sharing the video Tuesday evening.

    Yesterday the Biden folks released the most important economic action in his 4 year term. It dictates when a merger can successfully occur and what sort of consolidation in what industries the government is looking at. It's also the first time in American history that the government has said they will prioritize labor rights in mergers. If a merger is shown to decrease worker pay they will block the merger.

    Transformational stuff that nobody talks about on the left. @Nook whines that dems don't care about ppl yet somehow the most pro worker anti monopoly action goes without being discussed.

    Nobody literally cares at all about policy under the Biden. Even lefties @Haymitch are utter clueless

    I was in London for a day earlier this week and the prices there were killing me. Last time I was there was 2019. Inflation in the UK is no joke.

    Peter Zeihan remarked that German industrial capacity has been crippled due to the Russian sanctions and is likely unrecoverable unless gas transfers resumed and relations thaw. WSJ article confirms manufacturing weakness is a Europe wide phenomenon. So they upended decades long policy of "Change through trade." That's an incredible price to pay for the alliance and for morals/backbone they didn't have before.

    There's pretty much all around weakness globally while the US deficit spends its way to growth. China hasn't regained momentum from their re-opening and could reflect next quarter's financial reports.

    Do you try to prevent catastrophe or swoop in after it strikes clean up the pieces? For election years, you do the former and hope for the best. The latter is more textbook and assumes a business cycle is like a natural event. You can plug the gaps, but waste, excess and fraud builds up. Only when you expose the survivors who managed prudently that you spend previous funds to keep them alive. But that demand destruction and that doom loop...

    Whatever, this time it's different.

    Fastest-growing job market? Government — and that’s a disaster
    By Vivek Ramaswamy and Stephen Moore
    July 20, 2023 12:15pm Updated

    Private-sector hiring has slowed down at a worrisome rate.

    When counting downward revisions in hiring from the previous two months, the net employment gain was a meager 99,000 in the June report.

    But what is even more troubling is this: Guess what sector of the economy is on the biggest hiring binge?

    Government.

    During the just-ended first half of 2023, federal, state and local governments added 379,000 workers to their payrolls.

    This was more hires than any industry in America.

    It was more than mining, manufacturing, construction, wholesale and transportation — COMBINED.

    Wait. With the federal government running a $2 trillion annual deficit, and with the COVID crisis long behind us, shouldn’t we be systematically downsizing?

    The only industry that comes anywhere near the government in hiring so far in 2023 is health care/hospitals.

    And that industry is half funded with government dollars from programs like Medicare and Medicaid.

    Even these numbers distort the disproportionate impact government is exerting on the economy because, under the Biden administration, Congress has appropriated hundreds of billions of dollars in corporate welfare subsidies.

    For example, the Chips and the misnamed Inflation Reduction Act funneled tens of billions of dollars to the microchip industry, green energy and electric cars.

    The government is thus adding tens of thousands of private-sector jobs that are financed by taxpayers.

    This is a losing proposition.

    The only way the government can spend money to pay for these jobs programs is to subtract investment and jobs from other private employers that don’t have the most-favorable-industry status from politicians.

    We should have learned from the Obama years that government subsidies to industries in the end lead to low-productivity spending and bankruptcies.

    Remember Solyndra?

    The economy is expanding in all the wrong places.

    A productive economy increases private-sector jobs and cuts extraneous government jobs.

    Bidenomics is doing the opposite.

    Vivek Ramaswamy is a Republican candidate for president. Stephen Moore is a senior fellow at the Heritage Foundation and a co-founder of the Committee to Unleash Prosperity.
    Can't vouch for this, gonna need a fact check on aisle 5

    if those figures are correct it doesn't look like "Bidenomics" is about restoring good-paying manufacturing jobs to the economy . . . unless those government jobs are about manufacturing bullshit ;)

    The biggest economic news of this year is the merger guidelines which effect literally almost every corporation. Instead of spewing low iq OPeds do your job as a professor and read the guidelines.

    Why doesn't anyone read anymore. Nobody gives a **** what vivek thinks. Trickle down tools

    Whatever, you clearly don’t differentiate between the different types of spending. It’s all monetary with you.

    For example, the US private sector spending money to increase their energy exports to the globe. Or US public sector spending money on infrastructure or supply chains or semi conductors.

    We warned Germans not to rely on the Russians and now they will rely on North America, North Sea, etc

    So you are in favor of keeping interest low and large public spending like under Trump?

    Otherwise, Biden is still keeping the labor market right by still being very restrictive on immigration.

    His rules are more tougher than trumps. Manufacturing jobs are at a record high and through the roof



    Biden is delivering millions of non college jobs to white Americans in the middle of the country. Do you even folks even realize how much money is being pumped into red America right now
