The video linked below (on Threads) does a great job visualizing wealth distribution. The wealth gap is the US is unthinkable.

Most recent numbers from the Fed:
* The wealthiest 10% hold 67% of total US wealth👀
* The bottom 50% holds only 2.5% of total US wealth 👀

Linked vid in summary:

Trump falls short again:

* The DNC averaged 14.3% more viewers/night than the RNC
* Harris had a peak of 28.9M viewers for her speech compared to TFG's 28.4M

On one side: hope, unity & enthusiasm
On the other: darkness, division & passivity

There is no comparison.

Let's add to Trump's anxiety. He's have a bad fucking week:
1. He gave a speech in MI devoid of energy
2. The DNC has been off-the-hook & Harris/Walz packed both 2024 party convention centers simultaneously last night
3. The latest 538 polls are already starting to reflect the bounce from the DNC.

Actually if you compare her to Vlad with a blond wig... hmmm... 🤔

There are some odd similarities there, no?

The Dow Jones is approaching 41,000 again.
DJT currently sits at a 6-mo low at about $22.50.
The DNC starts today.

If the markets really were an indicator of what's expected with the presidential race, it sure as fuck IS NOT based on Trump the victor.

Losers gonna lose. Let's make it so!

Hilarious because Harris hit +3.0 for the first time on 538 aggregates.

Aggregate polls show a widening gap and the DNC is only going to further the trend.

Nice work by @numb.comfortab.ly to create this "AP Fact Check" meme generator for JV Vance. Some funny stuff in that thread if you need a laugh. 😆

Harris / Walz keep trending. People are tired of negativity. People want hope.

Harris is now up 2.8 according to polling aggregates on 538 and she's hit 46.3%.

Trump's a loser and his campaign is in flames. Expect something to change, though. But in the meantime... ride the wave.

Let's examine Mitch's concerns closer. Yeah, ok, Mitch. You're completely ineffective at this point. Please return to your cryostasis chamber, Crypt Keeper.

Brian Tyler Cohen provided the best response to this. JD works for the wrong boss if he truly cares about bullying and name calling.

Hey, JD... get a grip, snowflake.
August 13, 2024 at 8:45 PM
The trend keeps on trending. 😄

The latest 538 aggregate polls puts Harris up +2.7. It's the widest margin yet. She's also hit 46% for the first time. This shows the continued momentum and enthusiasm.

Let's go!

Kamala graces Time Magazine's cover again. This is the type of thing that drives Trump crazier than anything else... so enjoy!

Incel Kirk clearly subscribes to Vance's "Young Men's Romance Reading List"

Trump is getting castrated left and right. The result is that people on the fence are finally admitting that the emperor has no clothes.

One more example of this from Politico (their current top story online):

I have a proposal for New York Magazine:

If all of corporate media starts behaving with journalistic integrity (in totality), we'll ditch the couch jokes.

Get back to us when it happens.

In the meantime, let's have a look at JD's LinkedIn profile...

Checking 538 and the 14 most recent polls have Harris up across a variety of pollsters & many have significant respondents (3000, 4000 or more).

I won't overthink polls in general but the shift is undeniable.

Plus, the Dems have just announced a VP pick & the DNC is 2 weeks out. Momentum...
August 6, 2024 at 7:22 PM
It's pretty simple, Trump is scared to debate for a reason.
August 6, 2024 at 6:54 PM
He needs to be held account for everything while he can be. If we don't all vote in unity from center out to the far left, he may never be held accountable for anything ever again.

The swamp king would be free to do as he pleases...

NYT actually leading with some positives headlines on Harris
August 2, 2024 at 6:55 PM
538 finally posted Harris on the Presidential tracker. Guess who's up in the poll?

Obvious answer: Kamala Harris (+1.5)

BOOM!

Stacey Abrams gets a great crowd rockin' in Atlanta at the Kamala Harris rally.

I love Stacey Abrams... she has done such amazing work.

This crowd is enthusiastic. It's amazing to see big energy from coast to coast and from north to south.

I'm paraphrasing but Mark Hamill delivered the message that matters the most in November during "White Dudes for Harris" tonight.

The Federal Reserve meets 7/30-7/31. As of the latest Federal Reserve graph charting inflation using PCE (Personal Consumption Expenditures price index) which is the measure The Fed tracks against, US inflation has dropped to their 2% target (currently just above at 2.06%).
