But not to you. Because you haven't found out how much of a raise you're getting. A big one and it's going good. Mediocre and it's not. Who would have thought the US economy all depended on the generosity of your boss.What about the economy? It’s great according to you
No. Why on earth would they? But you support this 'repatriation'. So please fill in the details for those of us who know it's just Trump telling people want they want to hear. He hasn't thought it through and he's hoping you won't. So think it through and tell us how it's going to work.Did these people think about any of that when they broke the law and came here illegally?
What I make has nothing to do with how much things cost. Making more and having to spend more for the basics doesn’t make a great economy. My raise has nothing to do with the economy. It’s because I’ve been promoted and took on more responsibility, it’s not a cost of living increase. It won’t change my opinion of the economic conditions at allBut not to you.

Hopefully he will change requirements for asylum seekers. Biden already has and cut arrests at the border by 40%. Next work on enforcing the law.No. Why on earth would they?

You're getting a raise because your company is doing well enough so that they can. Companies going down the tube don't start promoting people and giving 'substantial raises' (your term). And you said that the economy was bad because some people's wages have not kept up with inflation. So there's a bad economy yet your company is doing well and you're going to get a chunk of extra money - no doubt whatsoever in my mind a percentage that will beat inflation hands down.What I make has nothing to do with how much things cost.

You pick things to respond to and ignore other posts completely.
But we're not talking about that. He's going to 'repatriate' millions. From here:Hopefully he will change requirements for asylum seekers.
No, it has nothing to do with the economy, My supervisor had a nervous breakdown it’s a stressful job so I had to step up and take her place. We are a non profit organization anywayYou're getting a raise because your company is doing well enough so that they can.

So not only is the US economy doing well, but so are you. What exactly is Trump going to improve and how?
Actually, I'd give that a miss if I were you. Maybe concentrate on the Great Repatriation! Tell us more...
I’m not being taken anywhere this guy was not my choice but if he does anything about this problem then he earned my vote.But we're not talking about that. He's going to 'repatriate' millions. From here:
"On Day 1 of my new administration, I will seal the border, stop the invasion of people pouring through our border and send Joe Biden's illegal aliens back home where they belong,"
To do so, the former president said he would use local law enforcement and the National Guard to find such migrants living across the U.S. He also hasn't ruled out building detention camps on U.S. soil or activating the military as part of the effort.
There are about 11 million unauthorized migrants living in the U.S., according to the most recent estimates from the Department of Homeland Security. The overwhelming majority of the population (79%) have been in the country since before 2010, DHS found -- though the report contains numbers through 2022, before the historic influx in border crossings.
Data from the immigration advocacy group FWD.us found that 22 million people in the U.S. live in a mixed-status household where at least one undocumented person lives with U.S. citizens, green card holders or other lawful residents.
Muzaffar Chishti, a senior fellow at the nonpartisan Migration Policy Institute. "That it's almost impossible to spot an unauthorized worker in the mixed communities that we have and that it takes a lot of personnel resources even to execute a warrant against a single person."
"So given all those constraints, people will soon understand that's easier said than done," Chishti said. "It's clearly used for political purposes and we may not hear it again after the election."
Let's be honest. I'll say again that he hasn't given any thought whatsoever as to how this could possibly be done. He's just telling you what you want to hear - just like he does with the economy. And you just suck it up. And repeat it. With no idea of what it entails.
This isn't a policy. This is just a lie that he tells you simply because you want to hear it. Just like 'lock her up' and 'build that wall'. You're being taken for a ride.
People getting raises greater than the rate of inflation has nothing to do with how the economy is determined to be doing? Forget the economy, younseem bemused by the concept. Try repatriating millions of immigrants.No, it has nothing to do with the economy...
You start by deporting one. How do you eat an elephant? One bite at a time. You can’t just sit back and say it’s too big of a problem so let’s do nothing.People getting raises greater than the rate of inflation has nothing to do with how the economy is determined to be doing?

I like how you ignored the rest of my postPeople getting raises greater than the rate of inflation has nothing to do with how the economy is determined to be doing? Forget the economy, younseem bemused by the concept. Try repatriating millions of immigrants.
How does that work? I was puzzled about it before. 'We'll vote for him and then we'll find out what he's going to do.' So he will have earned your vote if he does something with which you agree. But he won't if he doesn't.I’m not being taken anywhere this guy was not my choice but if he does anything about this problem then he earned my vote.
Bull dust! It's not one. It's not hundreds. Or even a few thousand. That might nust be in the realm of possibility. It's millions. It's. Simply. Not. Possible.You start by deporting one. How do you eat an elephant? One bite at a time. You can’t just sit back and say it’s too big of a problem so let’s do nothing.
No I’m voting for him because Joe Biden is so bad that even Trump is a better choice. Biden is just that bad. I would take Kennedy over BidenHow does that work? I was puzzled about it before. 'We'll vote for him and then we'll find out what he's going to do.' So he will have earned your vote if he does something with which you agree. But he won't if he doesn't.
No wonder US politics is in the toilet...
No, my friend. That's not how it works. People tell you what they're going to do - their actual policies, and then you vote for the guy whose policies you support. Improve the economy? You have no idea what he's going to do. Rid the country of millions of immigrants starting on Day One? Again, you have zero idea how this could be done.
He's lying to you and you'll vote for him because it's lies that you want to hear. If that's not the case then tell us what he'll do re the economy and immigrants before you vote for him.
It’s asylum Seekers he needs to start with. Give the man a chance before you condemn him for not doing anything.Bull dust! It's not one. It's not hundreds. Or even a few thousand. That might nust be in the realm of possibility. It's millions. It's. Simply. Not. Possible.
And you know it. It's time to admit it. Time to admit he's not going to do it it. Just the same as he didn't lock anyone up or get someone to pay for a wall. It's all lies.
You've said he would improve a tanking economy. It ain't tanking. He lied to you. And you've offered nothing that he has said that will likely improve the economy. You mentioned immigration. He said he will remove millions from US soil. You have been asked how this is possible. Where would they be sent? Who would receive them? How would it be done? What would it cost? What are the implications for the economy?No I’m voting for him because Joe Biden is so bad that even Trump is a better choice. Biden is just that bad. I would take Kennedy over Biden
Nope. He has literally said that he will get rid of millions. You have no idea how he could possibly do that and zero idea what the implications would be. That is very plain indeed.It’s asylum Seekers he needs to start with. Give the man a chance before you condemn him for not doing anything.
I didn’t say it was tanking. Post that comment if I said it. I said I was voting for the one who would be better for the economyYou've said he would improve a tanking economy. It ain't tanking.

Trump can't tell you. He hasn't told you. Because he doesn't know. That's because he's lying to you. Just, as I have shown to you, he has re the economy.
You are being taken for a ride.
You've said that people thought that the economy was in bad shape. You have been proved wrong. You've been asked what Trump has promised to do to improve it and have offered nothing at all. It's been pointed out what his policy is re immigration and you have no answer. He is lying to you.I didn’t say it was tanking. Post that comment if I said it.

Quote “We have two poor choices for President. I’m voting for the one that I think will do more to improve the economy and not get us into a war, The other is just a figurehead.”You've said that people thought that the economy was in bad shape.
