Considering the recent Democrat freakout over the ‘economic narrative‘, which included a request for corporate media to circle the wagons, their desperation is starting to make sense.
Patrick Murray is a notoriously partisan pollster from Monmouth University {use searchbar}. Leftist favorite Murray puts the spin in spin-master when it comes to media polling and narrative engineering.
The Monmouth engineer recently released a heavily spun poll warning the communists and leftist Democrats, showing checkbook issues are the top concern priority for Americans – far beyond any concern about the COVID madness.
Keep in mind, Murray skews polls in extraordinary ways; however, yet even Monmouth cannot avoid seeing that 29% of leftist Americans are very concerned with inflation, while only 18% are concerned with COVID [pdf here]. Monmouth’s polls are always skewed with responses from the DNC base, so consider that result amid their own tribe. Democrats are twice as worried about their household bills and inflation as they are worried about Omicron or any variant therein.
This explains the massive freakout in the backrooms of the White House and DNC at the moment. Their economic policy chickens are coming home to roost.
“Concerns about inflation have taken center stage in discussions around America’s kitchen tables. And, as one would expect, many are placing the blame squarely on Washington,” said Patrick Murray, director of the independent Monmouth University Polling Institute. (link)
When you ignore the public spin Murray puts on the polling (Republicans horrible etc), the bottom line is devastating for Democrats. This aligns with a recent Wall Street Journal survey showing that Latinos are flocking to the Republican Party, and there is now an even 50/50 split amid Hispanic voters.
“One year after giving Democratic House candidates more than 60% of their vote, according to polls at the time, the Journal survey found that Hispanic voters are evenly split in their choice for Congress. Asked which party they would back if the election were today, 37% of Hispanic voters said they would support the Republican congressional candidate and 37% said they would favor the Democrat, with 22% undecided.” (link)
Keep in mind the MAGA movement, which has overtaken the traditional GOP, is an assembly of the blue-collar working class. The MAGA coalition is not about race, creed, national origin, special interest grouping, or what you do in your bedroom. The MAGA assembly are aligned in common purpose on commonsense Main Street economic issues.
America First is Main Street first, while AOC sheeple and their champagne socialist base promote economic outcomes favorable to Wall Street and corporate multinationals. It doesn’t matter how much they use cognitive dissonance to deny that, the economic outcomes are in your face every day.
When it comes to inflation, the AOC ‘Build Back Better‘ program has the direct consequence of making things worse. They cannot reverse the impacts of leftist policy on energy pricing without changing their structural energy policy – and that ain’t gonna happen.
There’s only about 45 days left (+/-) before the next round of massive inflation hits the country at a retail level. As the raw material and wholesale price increases hit the retail level, the next wave of compounded increased prices will hit harder -and be more steep- than all preceding increments.
Contract terms for payments inside the supply chain are net 30, net 60 or net 90 days, depending on the industry and sector. As those prior contracts were delivered, a massive number of new purchase order fulfillment agreements were written without defined prices, because the raw material and processing costs were changing too fast to be quantified.
Those ‘undefined pricing’ contracts and agreements are going to carry the full weight of increased raw material, energy and transportation costs, and those prices are going to stun many of the recipients.
If the leftists in the political establishment are worried about checkbook economics and grocery store conversations today, you can well imagine that worry turning to fear as soon as the next wave of reality hits the kitchen table.
Here’s what i cannot get past in all of this electoral rah rah blather: at least on the federal level, even if we elected 535 solid liberty loving patriots to Congress, 100% control, IT WOULDN’T MATTER. Why? Because, as Sundance has so eloquently stated, the Fourth Branch controls the federal government. Until we get rid of that Fourth Branch, we aren’t going to restore the republic or our freedoms. The Fourth Branch is not going to be voted out or reined in by Congress or the President.
So, hoooo raaay, the latino vote is breaking towards GOP. So what? If anything, this will mean those arrogant barstads in control of the GOP will treat MAGA voters even worse, figuring they can replace them w the new Hispanic voters.
Hate to say it but there’s no way out short of military action. And that’s not going to happen until the Criminal Cartel in charge either sparks a hot civil war or triggers a full on economic collapse or foreign war. Until then, sure, elect local people to hold back the evil as much as possible, but know that these federal, Uniparty politicians are one big waste of money and time.
The fourth branch can only be destroyed by a truly fair, curious, and unafraid media. We currently have a willing conspiracy between the fourth branch and the lamestream media, which must change first. The way to destroy the media is to get in the ring with a better punch. Trump may be on this path.
Think about a new way of delivering news. A reality show with problem of the week, a group of problem solvers, and a mixed group of experts who challenge the contestants and their solutions. The public would participate in choosing the winner who would receive funding for whatever political office they choose. The show would present all sides of an issue which the public does not currently get. Logic and common sense solutions instead of lies!
Every week like The Apprentice we are actively involved and the people who don’t watch the news would watch this. With massive ratings on TTC (Trump Truth Channel formerly ABCBS) the rest of the media will be forced to do something or be destroyed.
I like this idea! maybe they could get Trump to MC (:
Great suggestions, send them to Nunes to take to his new job!
Should you be conservative, or liberal, one thing holds true, unless you are of the ultra rich. A families pocketbook will almost always dictate what is within your means and what is not. Most Americans have worked hard for the monies they have saved and to watch inflation ramp up and consume those dollars is very concerning for any household that understands basic math. Inflation can not be absorbed as if it’s not there, it is real, and it is damaging, and when it’s time to vote people will stay loyal to there pocket. This presidency is having a devastating effect on earnings and savings.
Lenin is said to have declared that the best way to destroy the capitalist system was to debauch the currency. By a continuing process of inflation, governments can confiscate, secretly and unobserved, an important part of the wealth of their citizens.
” The way to crush the bourgeoisie (middle class) is to grind them between the millstones of taxation and inflation”….
Look familiar? This is the goal of these Leftists in power and the Globalists who are working towards the ” Great Reset”.
This inflation and price increases on everything is being done on purpose and with punitive disregard against the American working class.
I work in the domestic food-supply chain in the US, and Sundance is 100% spot on: there is a big inflation wave building now to hit for 1Q2022, that is going to make retail price increases in 2021 seem minor by comparison. Batten down your hatches and build your stockpiles before it hits. Today organized theft rings attack for jewelry and fancy purses, but next year they may well be targeting food warehouses…
Grab and run with carts of meat from grocery stores on the way
Local grocery store already keeps the rib roasts in the back because people steal them.
The Labor Department on Friday morning will release November’s consumer price index, a gauge that measures the cost of dozens of items. The index covers common goods including gasoline and ground beef, but extends into more detailed purchases such as frozen vegetables, indoor plants and flowers and pet supplies.
Wall Street expects the the index to reflect a 0.7% gain for the month, which would translate into a 6.7% increase from a year ago, according to Dow Jones estimates.
Any bets that the Labor Dept. fudges on this report to keep it at or below .5%?? Or do you trust them to really rub ole Joey’s nose in his screw up??
All these issues, Jan 6, Smollett, Maxfield, Bannon, Russia/ Ukraine all to mask US citizens quality of life down significantly.
Inflation, security, law.
