    idk what that image is supposed to be but basically u can google the trend unemployment was on during obama presidency and if u compare it to trump it’s literally following the same trend (if not worse)

    so yes technically it’s “lower” than when obama was in office but he didn’t actually do anything substantial to help that, despite all his bluster. he’s riding obama’s coat tails and hopes no one notices

    edit: nvm just reread ur post, yeah following the recession (which is when unemployment was highest of recent years) it has been steadily falling. however there are plenty more “bubbles” on the rise and i wouldn’t be surprised if one pops here soon

    Sorry mustve done it wrong, it was United States Unemployment Rate and years with obama. thats what i thought of the graph and putting nto words..

    has trump literally done anything postive? besides helping the rich, deregulating the envirnmental laws.

    i read their making it tougher to get food stamps.. mininum 20 hrs needed to work weeklty. so its that easy in the US. So mant different factors that can effect job search and woriking. reading this s*** everyday just annoys me a little..

    yup cuts almost across the board especially in the arts and environmental (which i’m sure u feel, since i think australia did the same and now y’all got all them brush fires and other sad s***) and basically trying his hardest to roll back obama policies

    one positive i can say is the prison reform s*** - albeit being a retroactive move and not seeming to deal with the larger issue at hand - but i’m p sure that was in the works before Trump and he didn’t even really want to pass it but i think he saw a publicity moment wit Kanye and company and just said f*** it and signed it

    There are actually more democrats in red states and the other way around than you would think. But honestly the electoral college should be abolished. The people saying it’s to make sure each state gets a voice aren’t realizing that it’s possible to win more states yet lose in the electoral college votes

    Well yeah, states are weighted differently. I do think there is issues with the weighting of states.

    Bernie leading in California and Texas too

    Texas primary:
    Biden 22, Sanders 24, Warren 15, Bloomberg 10, Buttigieg 7, Klobuchar 3, Yang 6, Gabbard 2

    Sanders 14 points up on Bloomberg

    Edit: But in Florida Bloomberg is at 27, Bernie at 10

    Old people of all races love Bloomberg for some f***ing reason (I remember I heard Judge Judy of all people do an interview a few months ago where she was talking about why she would be supporting Bloomberg...of course she had no legitimate reasons, it was all mega vague ideas about how she just "liked" him )

    But that Texas news is f***ing great. It's setting up to be a phenomenal Super Tuesday for the Bern Dawg if we can get a W in Nevada and keep it close in South Carolina. Winning California and Texas would be huuuuuge. And the other Super Tuesday states are all pretty favorable for him.

    Florida doesn't vote until 2 weeks after Super Tuesday, so worry about that later.

    he wants a stronger safety net so people at the lower and middle class can gain more wealth instead of the same white people with inter generational wealth
