    And the icing on the cake is Trump went after those ISIS scums in Nigeria to protect my Christian brothers and sisters. Merry Christmas to you scooby doo the purveyor of fake news. Lol

    ANOTHER huge inflationary problem solved -- alongside gasoline, eggs, prescription drugs, used cars, and many more.




    GOOD DAY

    per Trump's commerce dept, reporting a 4.3% increase in GDP in Q3 2025

    • while GDP growth for Q3 2025 was reported to be ~4.3%,
      • personal disposable income growth was flat, corroborating the fact that
        • inflation continues to be eating at Americans' wages

    The recent tame CPI report / strong GDP report aren't the win
    for the economy that they seem




    the government shutdown---making it extremely difficult to gather all relevant data on time---also increases the risk of revision
    for the respective Q3 reports, with flat CPI / GDP growth potentially being revised the coming months.


    • CPI report
      • assumes that rent had zero inflation in Nov
        • updated data will reflect that it was more than zero

    • GDP
      • technical quirks attributable to the volatile swings caused by
        • the tariffs and trade deficits, as well as
        • increases in health care cost / insurances, etc

    Trump's mis-handling of the US economy rears its ugly head;
    affordability concerns and persistent inflation have led to

    • highest dispapproval rate ever for Trump 2.0
    • lowest approval rate ever for Trump 2.0

    the Epstein file controversy / the ill-conceived tariffs / Susie Wiles' "tell all" don't help!​
