I answered you honestly.

But if you want spin, anything that happened in Biden's last month was not due to Biden, but corporate confidence in the economy over potential Trump deregulation.

Is that spinny enough?

Yes, that's spinny enough. It also ignores the rest of 2024 and the years before.

Your post asked about Biden's last month.

Either way, Trump's policies, if effective, will take time.

Bidens final month was better than Trumps 1st year. His final month was also significantly better than January of 2026.

Yes, 130k exceeded expectations. But in context, it ain't great.

Let me buckle up before you spin this.

This really comes as no surprise.

How's those tariffs coming along now? Seems like even his own party is getting sick of the tariff and TACO routine.

TOM LLAMAS: You — you floated the idea of $2,000 rebate checks for Americans from tariff revenue. Who’s gonna get that and — and when is that gonna happen?

It's so awesome. The more tariffs we put on other countries, the bigger our tariff rebate check is going to be. When are they sending that out again? Or is he still trying to lie about having said that?

Now that Trumpy is pushing for investing in "beautiful clean coal" how long will it be before we are running trains, cars, planes and homes from this energy source?

I can tell you from 1st hand experience that the "no tax on overtime is a total canard." Not that I didn't know it all along. His cult members are really dumb.

That ranks right up there with stupidity they possessed for believing that Mexico was going to pay for the wall.

Federal judge issued an injunction to stop Drunk Pete from demoting and reducing Kelly's position and pension.

Does this count as winning too?

Things are going to be really tense at the local Applebees during Happy Hour now it seems.

Are drunken Pete and Gash Patel the two least qualified cabinet members in US history?

I once thought Sean Spicer had that award locked down. Apparently not with those two. Though had Gaetz not ran off in record time, he might be challenging for one of the top 2 spots.

Either way, any of their shortcomings are more than offset by Bessent and Rubio.

I doubt folks are going to welcome coal as a way to heat their homes. Coal produces soot. Soot does not go with today’s interior decorating trends. Another problem with coal is that it produces carbon monoxide. In other words, heating with coal has the potential to kill you. The good news is that when you are dead, you won't have to heat your home to stay warm.
