SpaceX:
Did you see the clips flying around of old cold-hearted criminal nancy pelosi attacking CNN Jake Tapper? She a!most slapped him, I hope you don't have that bitterness in you, come Nov 5th the old b*tch might possibly hang herself.

Here are some :
1. The Agriculture Improvement Act
2. Economic Growth, Regulatory Relief, and Consumer Protection Act
3. The VA MISSION Act
4. Study of Underrepresented Classes Chasing Engineering and Science Success Act

I can go on and on, they are in thousands and probably take me a year to list all.

1.) The Agriculture Improvement Act
This is the Farm Bill that was expiring. It was extended in 2018. It expired and was extended again in 2023 and Biden Reauthorized it.
In fact 13 Senate Republicans voted against it.
This wasn't Trump's policy.

2.)

The Economic Growth, Regulatory Relief, and Consumer Protection Act. The bill eased financial regulations imposed by the Dodd–Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act after the financial crisis of 2007–2008.
[b]Specifically, the bill raised the threshold from $50 billion to $250 billion under which banks are deemed too big to fail.
[5] The bill also eliminated the Volcker Rule for small banks with less than $10 billion in assets.[6]

Dodd Frank was passed after the financial collapse. It's meant to stress test banks.
You remember those banks that failed a few years ago? Costing customers money and the Federal government had to step in to guarantee people's money so other banks wouldn't fail? Yeah, this legislation was part of the reason. Those banks were exempt from this stress test.


3.)

Spin, hyperbole and deception: How Trump claimed credit for an Obama veterans achievement
President Trump has told mistruths about the 2014 VA Choice Act more than 156 times, seeking to deny the contributions of rivals including Barack Obama and John McCain .
The first time President Trump claimed false credit for the Veterans Access, Choice and Accountability Act — which President Barack Obama signed into law in 2014 — was on June 6, 2018. That day, as Trump signed the Mission Act, a modest update to the bipartisan VA Choice legislation, he seemed to conflate the two.

Again, this was Obama's policy that was slightly amended.

4.) Study of Underrepresented Classes Chasing Engineering and Science Success Act
Was this a policy? This was a report.

Again, which one of these policies do you think helped create the best Economy ever that he keeps talking about? You can keep listing them as I don't see any there. Seems that since these are the only things you could google, you admit there are none. And it's not shocking that these policies you listed were Democratic policies that got updated, or policies that expired that needed to be renewed. All Democratic policies. Let that sink in. Seems, you want Dems to enact Dem policies.

LordAdam16:
0%.

The Dems can steal the election again.
There will be no repercussions.

-Lord

Keep your mental ill conspiracy rantings to the Nigerian voting system.
Have you ever voted in the US to even have an opinion?

The amount of people stupid and crazy enough to believe this stuff is alarming.

basilico:
Whom are you trying to fool? Is Ijebos paying you to peddle his lies ?

You and your lot have been consistently wrong about everything US election based since the 2020 election.

And the US mail in system is safe and secure.
Here is the tracking details for my Mail in Ballot. I procrastinated sending my primary ballot in so I had to vote in person.

The US system is very sophisticated in the way it tracks ballots. It shows you when it was mailed to you, received back by the state and the status. Even the Post Office has modernized their systems, I get an email every morning with the pieces of mail destined to my address. Because of that It is very hard for any large scale Mail in Ballot rigging to happen.

Your understanding is based on the bastardized and corrupt Nigerian system. That is all you know. But that is not the reality of the US system.

basilico:
What's to blame for inflation.. the infrastructure act or Trump?

You keep running your mouth about Harris's policies. So, I asked you one question about Trump's policies. And here you are dodging.
This should be easy.
So, name me one policy Trump was responsible for that helped the middle class economically.
Just one policy that he helped enact that brought about this great economic period you guys keep going on about.

Again policies take time to go into effect. Even the decrease in the interest rate, we won't see the affects of for months maybe early next year.

ibegeeee:
N350,000 = $218, how many places in the world can you fly 1 hour return flight for less than $200

Is the plane made in Guasau?
Are the parts made in Uyo?
is the steel from Zungeru?
is the fuel from Warri?
Were the pilots and crew trained in FUTA?

The whole airline industry anywhere in the world is an international business and priced in international money.
Keep dreaming and praying for $15 flight ticket.

A lot of places. I can go to NY round trip for $100-200 depending on the airline. NY is about a 1 hour flight.
The Abuja route should be a popular flight.
Given that US wages, regulations, airport fees, taxes etc. are so much more than Nigeria, the Nigeria price doesn't make much sense.

IjeBos:
I've asked this question before in terms of the last 20 years. Let's just leave it to Trump this time.
For you, Raumdeuter, LordAdam16, SpaceX and your merry group of Trump sycophants.

Name 1 policy that helped the US middle class more than the US upper class that Trump helped usher through. His tax cuts don't count as the Tux Cuts benefited the wealthy more and trickle down economics have never worked.

I'll name a some from Biden/Harris
-Chips and Science Act
-BiPartisan Infrastructure Bill
-Inflation Reduction Act

I think this is hilarious. All these Trumpers on this thread keep talking about Harris has no policies. Yet, none can name one policy Trump helped enact while he was President that helped the middle class more than the rich economically. He was President for 4 years right?
The reason is because the economy he got and then trashed was a byproduct of the work Obama did and low, 0, almost negative interest rates at times.

I have been asking this question since I have been on here. What policies have the Republicans passed in the last 20 years that have made America better? What policies has Trump helped pass that has made the middle class economically better more than it has helped the upper class?

Crickets. Because facts don't matter to MAGA, just emotional BS.

ObaIgwe1:
Okay my bad.

But even at that, I doubt the quotation he made is right. We saw screenshots on this thread days ago showing Harris was endorsed by a number of State Teamsters unions.

Anyways I am not too worried by it, I doubt any of those who made those Teamsters polls advantage Trump ever voted for Dems before. Seems to me the leadership have been endorsing Dem Candidates while a good number of their members are Trumpists. My point is that while we see many who voted for Trump in 2016 and 2020 now planning to vote for Dem in 2024 in General Polls, the reverse is the case for Dem voters of 2016 and 2020.

You're right. Even in the midterms, people consistently told pollsters that Economy/border was their #1 issue. But during the exit polls, Reproductive rights was the #1 issue. I'm not sure the pollsters models are accounting for an increase based on Reproductive RIghts.
We will see.

MERCHANDISER:
How sure are you that Trump is going to win?
I want to place a bet on him

Most of the people in this thread who are saying Trump is going to win don't live in and have never been to the US.
Word for the wise.

lexy2014:
Is airfare from borno to Lagos not 25000?

Why are you offended because he said he paid for a ticket that cheap?

This should be a worry to Onyema and co, not you

You be Keyamo?

Where are you seeing it for 25k?
But his post is misleading. The person probably used his miles/rewards he earned and then paid a small fee for using them.
That's not the price of the ticket.

1.) Where did you see a flight to borno for 25k
2.) The flight did not cost 2.5k. He most likely got the flight for 2.5k because he had miles/points/reward that he had earned from previous flights that he used to offset the price. Because you can offset the price based on rewards doesn't make that the real price.

I don't know about now, but the pricing based on location when I was last bought tickets seemed weird.
Prices to the northern destinations were incredibly cheaper than anywhere to the east for the same Xmas period. I think I bought a ticket to a northern airport for 1/3 the price I bought one to the East. And the flight time would be less. I hope there is a business reason for that.

But, tickets even last Xmas made no sense. I made a reservation/hold for a flight to GH and when I went to pay it went up. Was pissed called in to enquire how a price on a reservation can go up and the rep said exchange rate. huh? I needed to make the trip, went to pay the new price and it went up again. All in a 2 hour period. And the rate was astronomical for a 1 hour and so flight to begin with anyhow.

yarimo:
You are lying that is why you can't remember the airline you entered, someone that sees aircraft only on sky is here want to feel among. Mteeeew

He's right. Flights were in that range then, even cheaper a couple years earlier.

note: I usually print out my tickets to OneNote, so I went back to a receipt for that time period and it 16,532 NGN, fees/taxes inclusive.

Maeve7:
Talking to these people is extremely exhausting. They say things that make my brain hurt. It’s shocking at times. As the saying goes, stupidity is unable to recognize itself so they will continue the chest beating and enjoy the bliss of ignorance.

Trump doesn’t bother me as much as the number of people who are willing to support someone so incoherent, vile, mannerless and hostile. Don’t they have children and want better role models for them? This is a person who had no regard for the democratic process and who tried to overthrow the government. It’s the biggest threat and enemy from within. 1930s Germany comes to mind.

Trump might or might not disappear in November but knowing how many people were willing to support him made me lose some hope for humanity.

Yeah, esp. reading the posts on this site. It's somewhat depressing and sad. And as you said exhausting.
And the non Nigerian commentators make it even worse. You have a wealth of information online, you can see how tribalism, corruption, lying and autocratic tendencies hurt a country first hand (Nigeria). And yet, you choose to willingly support the same in a leader for another country. The frustrating part from that is understanding that Nigeria will most likely be in a bad place for a long time.
I'm exhausted by it all.

basilico:
I've asked this before .Trump was president for 500 years. Did the sky fall? Do people have a reference point to judge him? This is not a table manners contest.
What are kamala policies besides being from a middle class family where neighbors had lawnmowers.

I've asked this question before in terms of the last 20 years. Let's just leave it to Trump this time.
For you, Raumdeuter, LordAdam16, SpaceX and your merry group of Trump sycophants.

kingbee90:
I believe you are referring to Obrigado, IjeBos and co. because those leftists are psychos.

Now as for Donald Trump, sane Americans love him and would gladly give him their votes
to get him back to the white house and there's nothing you modaforkas can do about it.

You seemed to have missed a central tenet of his post.

As the saying goes, stupidity is unable to recognize itself so they will continue the chest beating and enjoy the bliss of ignorance.

Here you are again proving it.

basilico:
Are these the stats that didn't include New York, California and Chicago because they had not received updated information from them?

Go peddle your brain-dead bullshit elsewhere.
If you aren't sure, you can find the FBI stats and check yourself and come back here and report with a screenshot if they don't.

This seems a huge gamble. I assume he understands economics so there has to be basis for this. But I can't figure it out.
Increasing the interest rate will decrease the money supply. Decreasing the money supply will make it harder and more expensive to borrow. People are already struggling with liquidity, where do they get the capital to invest and hire more people or pay the salaries of their workers? In a country with already high unemployment that would drive unemployment even higher and force businesses to close. That is the reason the US FED decided to drop interest rates... the economy seemed on the precipice of contracting and unemployment increasing because of the high interest rates.

Unless there's something i'm missing with the Economy, or they are willing to let a lot of people suffer, I don't get this.

Tektronics12:
What you dont understand is that the Higher interest rate lead to higher growth and lower interest rate lead to lower growth and Financialisation of Asset.

Higher interest rate would stop the banks betting and Doing Kalokalo.

How would higher interest rates lead to higher growth?
You have it backwards.

FBI released 2023 crime stats.

Hatians in Ohio file criminal charges against Trump and Vance.
Not sure how far it'll go, but interesting.
Lying to the public and lying to a court are two different ball games.

LordAdam16:
They already had the opener with the NC GOP candidate expose, run by that same CNN she wants to hold the debate on.
CNN released it on deadline day. So even if Robinson drops out, his name will remain on the ballot.

Like you, I expect more underhanded tactics.

-Lord

NSFW

It's an underhanded tactic that the Republican candidate for Gov called himself a Black Nazi and made posts like the one below?
That his whole campaign team basically resigned? Are they part of this conspiracy as well?
Is something wrong with your head?
Why is it that all you non American Trump supporters all sound like Nuts.

bemeruca:
Basilico, Media lies.
JD Vance mocked for saying eggs cost 4 dollars as seen in the image
when you play the video on their page you can see egg costs $4.99

https://www.msn.com/en-au/video/news/jd-vance-caught-%E2%80%98lying%E2%80%99-about-egg-prices---with-real-price-tag-behind-him/vi-AA1r3Kw6?ocid=BingNewsSerp&t=8

Except, grocery stores sell ranges of eggs. Including more expensive varieties like organic or grass fed organic.
Wouldn't expect someone who pretends to live in the US to know the difference.
There is a price of 2.99 on the eggs and probably an even cheaper one to the left of it.
Do a better job posting your propaganda.

bemeruca:
as of 2023

Have you ever been to a US grocery store to buy eggs? The answer would be no.
armyone is too nice to your 'pretending to live in the US propaganda posting degenerate self'.
In 2020 during Trump's presidency, Eggs were being rationed, if your grocery store even had them.
Did you put that in your silly chart. No.
But, you did put in the momentary increase in Egg prices caused by the "Bird Flu" in 2023. DIshonesty is your middle name.

Adding Radio which is largely dominated by conservatives, this Liberal control of the media is BS.

RFK has filed and emergency appeal to get on Ballot in New York.

He is asking the Supreme court to put his name on the ballot since it may help Trump in NY.
The ballots in NY are probably already printed as some of them should go out sometime next week.

This is after RFK fought in NC to take his name of the ballot. The Republican North Carolina Supreme Court made the state take his name off that ballot. It Cost millions to reprint the ballots and delayed not only sending the ballots out but may delay overseas military personal from receiving it on time. RFK fought this because his name on the ballot hurts Trump in NC.

This is what a party does when they believe they can't win an election and are comfortable cheating.

RFK Jr. asks Supreme Court to restore him on New York ballot

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. asked the Supreme Court for an emergency intervention to restore his name on New York’s presidential ballot.
Lower courts excluded the former independent candidate from the ballot after finding he falsely claimed residency in the state because his Katonah, N.Y., address was not his fixed and permanent residency.

basilico:
Yes I believe he is in Uncle Sams . I have no reason not to believe . He could even be in Malaysia, it's up to him to say where he is.

The question was clear and simple. Do you believe he's in the US?
When you say, he could even be in Malaysia, it's up to him to say where he is., that is a qualification of your answer and deflection from the original question.
And I said if you deflect, you're lying.
It's clear even you know he's not in the US. And it's clear you're comfortable lying about something so petty that everyone can see with their eyes.
And there we have it, You are a liar, whose comfortable pushing obvious lies to benefit whatever braindead nonsense you want to push out that day.

basilico:
Is a winner take all the standard in any other state?

You keep dodging this question post. Should be an easy answer. Answer the question.

Does Bemeruca live in the US.
When you were proclaiming last week you don't lie, I asked you if Bemeruca lived in the US.
You dodged the question. And are now pushing that lie again.
So, let me ask you again, does Bemeruca live in the US?
It's a yes a no question, and deflecting means you are lying.
Should be easy enough to answer, Right?

EnlightenedUFO:
Ijebos, the winner take all scam in Nebraska has been nuked. The GOP cheating system has been crippled over there.

We will defeat them all.

That is good to hear. It still concerns me that it wasn't a bigger story. A state attempting to change the rules of how votes are awarded less than 50 days before the election should be a bigger story.

budaatum:
Why only some? Its illegal to broadcast without a licence in UK.

There was a time we had lots of unlicensed pirate radios that specialised in music and or conspiracies, but after years of whackamole they all got shut down.

I said some as I wasn't sure if there were some circumstances I wasn't aware of and didn't want to fully research it.

basilico:
You are easily fooled by our resident idiot. Or does he sponsor you to sing his praises?

budaatum:
I think the closest to radio would be infowars, which is not broadcastable in UK, and I only get it because..... Those others I listed definitely aren't, and I only get them because.... In fact, I don't think Fox News is available here (get that too because...), but I do agree "Talk radio is more vitriolic", especially over there.

You got a thing called freedom of speech, which we thankfully don't have. We charge for speech instead, so people are more cautious what they let out their mouths here, or they might get sent a huge bill.

Some of the networks have to get a license to use public airways. So, the government can regulate them.
But yeah, I like the Uk's libel/defamation practice as well.

budaatum:
I listen during the night mostly. Bad habit of radio for sleep. And you know I watch Newsmax, and OANN and Newsy and Infowars often, but not much of it sticks on me I think.

Its not catching. Same way God isn't catching despite living in Nigeria, I'd say, the effect of being in control of ones own thinking and reasoning. If it were, black lives wouldn't matter, and dump for president and there is only one God and Jesus is Lord and Mohammed is a prophet.

To be honest, I think its the fact that critical thinking is in our school diet over here, and you can't homeschool and indoctrinate, as the curriculum must still be followed. Can't even church school, lol and thankfully.

Talk radio is more vitriolic than even Fox/newsmax. It's like Fox News on steroids.
You're clearly more discerning and not the target audience.
Education, Critical thinking and reading is a panacea for all that.

EnlightenedUFO:
When we? Who? You?

You are an asylum seeker in Canada, what gives you the right?

We had someone similar to Bemeruca on another Tech forum I frequent with a good Politics section. The poster would talk nonsense, was pro Russian, pro Trump, but mindlessly so. He claimed he lived in the US. But his grammar was always consistently poor for English being his first language as he said. People started calling him out that he was a Russian troll and that he was pretending to live in the US. He vehemently denied it and kept pushing the dis/misinformation. So, one day, the mods I'm sure who had struggled trying to figure out how to handle it best, put a note in one of posts. They said that his ip first originated from Russia and that he has since been using a VPN. They didn't ban him, but he stopped posting after that. I'm sure he switched usernames.
