What's your beef? You need to learn that when you use numbers and percentages the numbers and percentages have to be correct or you don't pass the final exam. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since October 10th, election odds have gone from 50-50 to sharply favoring Donald Trump. As a result, Trump Media stock, $DJT, is now up 101% this month. Markets are pricing-in a Trump victory. The market has completely shifted over the last week. The betting site for the Presidency, Kalshi, now has Trump with a 12 point lead. Someone just bet $132k on a Trump victory. This is big. It’s Bigly. It might be the biggest bet in Presidential history really.

UnkNuk Posted Wednesday at 03:56 AM Share Posted Wednesday at 03:56 AM 1 hour ago, Sabrefan1 said: Hello, Police? I'd like to report a murder!!! I've never heard of Colin Allred before I saw this post. Did a Google search on him and came across this: 8 key moments from the Ted Cruz vs. Colin Allred debate https://www.wfaa.com/article/news/politics/elections/texas-debate-tonight-ted-cruz-colin-allred-recap-highlights-key-moments/287-914a73cb-ed45-4743-a7c6-29448d39ab40 I watched a few of the excerpts. That was a pretty lively debate. Allred is a good speaker and, to give him credit, Cruz is pretty good debater himself. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Real GDP is simply just nominal GDP adjusted for inflation. That's it. That's the difference. Nothing you mentioned afterwards really means much of anything in regards to the difference between the two, at least not with the lack of context you've provided. Not saying the other numbers you provided are not issues, but they tend to be separate issues. It's "whataboutism".

Texans like their politicians a bit stupid it seems. Allred has been closing in on the polls, but he's running out of time. It's kind of like what happened with Beto O'Rourke when he ran against Cruz. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe the attacks sound juvenile to you because you want Cruz to win? The reason for my comment on that clip is.. I am a bit defensive about disrespecting law enforcement. I have lots of support for those that put their lives on the line, even for wimps like Cruz. So, seeing him smirk just reminds me of how shallow the guy is.
