Progressive Lies Part #2.

Boo hoo. You’re so dumb. If they were lying to help dems, they would have inflated the numbers. Please tell me you aren’t an IU grad. Takes the value of my degree way down if you are.
Calling anyone but Orange Jesus lying bastards is rich.
And how exactly did Dems benefit? Oh yeah by inflating the numbers the Federal Reserve kept raising interest rates. And exactly what benefit did they get from being slammed daily by Republicans on high interest rates. Making everything more expensive. It was really a gift for the Republicans but of course you’re too dumb to think it through. Your conspiracy track will go wild in September when the Fed begins lowering rates which they signaled they were going to do at last months meeting. F***ing stupid!
Who needs experience when you can just spew nonsense that makes you look stupid.
I’ll be nice and give you a cordial answer. The FED hasn’t raised rates for over a year now. You mistakenly made an argument for the conspiracy theory by the way. I’ll show you below.
The main issue Democrats were dealing with was high inflation. In order to slow it down the FED had to raise rates. The problem with this is it slows down the economy and eventually people lose jobs. Not good for them, but much preferred to high inflation.
So, by overstating the numbers the Democrats got to tout a stronger economy for the year and the FED got to run rates higher for longer to lower inflation. Both of those benefit Democrats.
Then you can release the real numbers (eventually it becomes obvious they’re wrong) during a busy news cycle week. Say my bad and call the other side conspiracy theorist when someone points out how pathetic they did with the numbers. Oh yeah, and then the FED can justify rate cuts right before the election, to give stock markets one last boost.
Now, if I was in charge and wanted my side to get re-elected, it’s what I would do.

They release the first annual benchmark revision the same day in August, every single year. It's always on the second to last Wednesday of August. This year, it was August 21. Last year it was on August 23. In 2022, it was on August 24. In 2021, it was on August 18.
So get the **** out of here with the claim that the release was somehow timed to be "during a busy news cycle."
Also, these are not the "real numbers." They do not issue the final numbers for the year in question until February of 2025.
lol…..you’re ridiculous. I know they’ll revise them again. I was responding to swman stupid post. Run along to the Purdue board.
I'm not the dumbass who claimed they intentionally released it "during a busy news cycle week" and timed everything so that the Fed can reduce interest rates right before the election. That's complete nonsense.
Nope. You just struggle with reading comprehension. By the way, they know when they release the data. You’re helping the conspiracy theorists😉

The adjustment was from April of 23 through March of 24. The Feds last rate hike was in July last year. Had those numbers been correct at the time the Fed would have begun lowering rates earlier and the Dems could have campaigned on that fact.
And btw, our economy is the envy of the rest of the world and has been even during Agent Orange’s administration.
Try going to fact check. Org. You might find the report interesting. I’m sure like all other cult members that is a lefty publication. It fits your preferred narrative.
The FED didn't want to cut because they hadn't hit their 2% target. If they cut 4 months ago and inflation started to accelerate, then what? The economy has been the envy of the rest of the world for a couple decades now.
2.9% YoY still. 50% too high. Yet they will cut anyway. Tell me the Fed is independent.
You need to tap out, you're looking stupid in this one.
No, nothing I said was stupid. It is a waste of my time though.
Says the liberal who’s run the long con to convince our Trumpsters that he’s one of them. Bravo!
I have a moment now to respond. You get an F on following a thread.
swman claimed the Dems didn't benefit from it. He clearly doesn't understand how the economy works and it shows in his post. 👇
So I responded explaining how it works and why he was wrong. The crux of my argument is in bold and 100% correct👇
You responded with calling me a name and saying I made a claim, that I never made. You can have the last word. I've wasted enough of my time on this.
The education is worth what one takes from it....obviously you failed.
The lying bastards are the Harris/Obama government flunkies, 12 out of the previous 16 years, who faked the numbers.
Second largest 'revision' of recorded history.
How many people at BLS are in on it? How are they all staying silent? How is anything you’re saying logical? None of it is.
You might want to consider that Lucy has ran a better counter op, than you have.
just sayin. And with your credd, We may have wasted A LOT of tax dollars on a total failed opp. in you.
Yep failed so miserably that I was able to retire at 60 and build a $2M dollar home in Southwest Florida. With your lack of intelligence I’d doubt your doing as well. Did you even attend college? Kind of doubt it with your posts.
When Goat says you look stupid, it means you're over the target.
I haven’t run one. Were you drunk again? I noticed your very well written and lucid post yesterday. That was very different.
Did you see the response from the former RI Governor? She said she didn't believe it because Trump always lies. Then it was brought up that this was government stats. She said, "I don't know. I haven't seen this".
No shame from these people at all. Zero none whatsoever. You almost have to admire it in a way.
You have a point here. I’ve seen Newsome admit defeat a couple times now. That is a pretty rare quality in a politician. I actually like it and it makes me more inclined to vote for them.
We’d all be better off if everyone could admit there wrongs. Guess that’s a little altruistic of me.
You must have me confused with the brainless cultists who worship the Orange Jesus.
