Polls and betting markets show that Donald John Trump is almost twice as likely as every other person on the planet combined to once again become president of the United States of America. This is contrary to the wishes of over 90% of black (sorry, BLACK) (oh wait, I overshot it, I mean Black) women in the country.

Does this make you mad? Americans finally realize that the whole “Drumpf is an existential threat to democracy!” thing is just typical shitlib histrionics not to be taken seriously. Are you ready for four more years of Trump and an improved economy with precisely none of the armageddon scenarios you keep peddling?

Yes, underdogs in various betting markets end up winning every single day! You should just bet on all of them and profit!

Notably, Trump was never a 64% favorite in 2020, but I’m sure his actual odds are much lower than 64% this year since he lost in 2020!

It allows the government to spend money simply by printing it while at the same time devaluing the money you save/earn. The effect is the same as a tax. Government has more, you have less.

If your assets are increasing in value because of inflation they’re not actually increasing in terms of real value. And you presumably still earn income in US currency which used to be worth more than it is now.

If the government is printing USD willy nilly, there will be more USD (which I don't have much of) chasing the same amount of assets (which I do own). The nominal increase in asset prices may not be real, but it's not a tax on me.

My income is directly tied to the price of what I sell, which of course is also increasing in nominal price

Ultimately, a 50% tax rate is the same as a 50% reduction in the value of your dollars due to doubling the supply of money. If you only hold assets that don’t produce income, you wouldn’t be taxed under 50% income either. If they do produce income, that income will be worth half as much under inflation, or would be taxed at 50% if the government funded dem programs that way. It makes no difference.

Honestly, I just tell myself that there are two possibilities. One is that Trump's advisors talk him out of the stupid shit he has proposed, in which case it's NBD. Possibility two is that he goes through with it and supercharges inflation. Given that Trump's approval rating is already SPS, that will most likely result in Democratic waves in 2026 and 2028. So most likely it works out one way or another.

Also, remember that prediction markets had Hillary as a 80-90% favorite up until around 8pm on Election Day. Trump is the favorite at this point, but his lead in the polls is smaller than Hillary's lead was in 2016.

Actually, the polls were almost spot on in 2022. The media just assumed that the polls were wrong because they took it as an article of faith that the party in power always does poorly in midterm elections, particularly when the POTUS is unpopular.

It is true that Trump outperformed his polls in both 2016 and 2020, but I wouldn't bet that it happens again based on a sample size of two. Historically, there isn't much rhyme or reason to which party outperforms the polls.
