So consumers are stuck with what we have been given .
    What does that mean ? Prices have risen almost 20% since Clueless Joe -Kam the Sham took the reigns . And to tell you the truth prices have largely stabilized because Clueless Joe cannot ban fracking on private lands .

    Talk with the Chinese about this. If tRump is elected, he will need to make friends with them so they lower the prices of all the goods they send to us. So many things we buy are labeled "Made in China".

    Trump has a record that says otherwise . When I have time I will detail that special relationship Walz has with the Chinese.

    During the debate Kam the Sham said she would not confiscate guns . That contradicts what she said in a Dem primary debate in 2020. What is interesting is that David Muir asked the question then. He was also co-moderator in the Kam-Trump debate . Yet he did not challenge her with a "fact check" ....something the moderators frequently did to Trump .

    Here is the 2020 section . Note that Joe called her out and said the 2nd amendment protects gun owner ship so she could not confiscate .Her response was essentially
    "watch me".

    Here is Dem hack Senator Richard Blumenthal speaking about the Butler Pa attempt Friday .
    I think the American people are going to be shocked, astonished and appalled by what we will report to them about the failures by the Secret Service in this assassination attempt on the former president

    I listened to KH's comments in the video you linked. It was her usual strategy of using many words to essentially say nothing. I did not hear her propose a confiscation program on assault weapons. Biden seemed to lean that way but insisted it could only be done in Congress. Did I miss something?

    Gun CONTROL. Not taking away ALL guns. The Chicago newspapers, page after page, report shootings and killings by mentally ill or angry or jealous or hateful shooters. Too many unstable people have access to a gun. We need better oversight.

    What is your plan to control the hateful, angry, or jealous people?

    How do you decide who is "unstable"? What kind of oversight are you proposing?

    Oh, I see! You want every American, no matter how young, to own a gun.

    I laughed because I asked you two serious questions and you ran away from them by lobbing accusations at me. It's so humorously predictable. But I'm still glad your health is better, and you can post again.

    My suggestion to people who are worried is to buy a handgun and learn how to use it. Protect yourself from the bad guys. As to what to do nationally, a Christian revival would be very helpful. Posting the Ten Commandments on school walls would help. Toning down the gun violence in movies, television, and especially video games would help. Restoring the traditional father/mother family would help. In other words, a great national movement towards being responsible would be my suggestion.

    Crime . Trump claimed crime rates are up . "Moderator" David Muir did an instant "fact check " and said FBI says crime rates are down. Trump told him the FBI is wrong .

    Who's right ?

    Stats are a funny thing. The FBI stats come from crimes reported to them from state city and local governments. If a crime is not reported then it doesn't get included in the FBI stats.


    But there is a more reliable stat. It is the' National Crime Victimization Survey that is run by the Bureau of Justice Statistics and administered by the Census Bureau.(NCVS).
    The NCVS, which dates to the Nixon administration, is the nation’s largest crime survey and one of the largest federal surveys on any topic. It’s designed to register crimes that people, for whatever reason, chose not to report to police.

    Oh crime is down in suburbia. But the crime wave in urban areas are an inconvenient truth they ignore. 58.5 percent of violent crimes, and 68.2 percent of property crimes—were not reported to police. The number of violent victimizations rose from 5.8 million in 2019 to 6.6 million in 2022. This came at the same time the Dems wanted to defund police.

    Quote:

    According to the NCVS, the urban violent-crime rate increased 40% from 2019 to 2023. Excluding simple assault, the urban violent-crime rate rose 54% over that span. From 2022 to 2023, the urban violent-crime rate didn’t change to a statistically significant degree, so these higher crime rates appear to be the new norm in America’s cities.
    The urban property-crime rate is also getting worse. It rose from 176.1 victimizations per 1,000 households in 2022 to 192.3 in 2023. That’s part of a 26% increase in the urban property-crime rate since 2019. These numbers exclude rampant shoplifting, since the NCVS is a survey of households and not of businesses.
    In contrast, violent-crime rates in suburban and rural areas have been essentially unchanged since 2019.

    Note to Mr. Trump. Always be prepared to support any data you refer to in a debate. That way, when the thoroughly unprofessional, biased so-called "journalist" tries to contradict you, you can shove them up against the wall (rhetorically, of course) and let them appear to be what they truly are.
