Your better basic American. Well, maybe not ⓣⓗⓐⓣ basic. And yes, I'm trying to make my own small difference. #notgivingup

Trump claimed his tariffs would bring about a golden age of American manufacturing.

Yet since his re-election, we've lost 75,000 manufacturing jobs. Over the same period, Biden had created 625,000.

Josseli Barnica and Nevaeh Crain should be alive today. But they are instead shocking casualties of MAGA misogyny and the Trump abortion bans.

Tell their stories and keep fighting to restore reproductive freedom for all. https://t.co/Eg8erUCLnX

Voters in Missouri, Nebraska, and Alaska will soon decide whether workers in those states should be entitled to paid sick leave. https://t.co/oZcGZAwqj6

While Red states enjoy disproportionate benefits from Biden’s IRA and infrastructure investments, they stand to disproportionately sufferfrom Trump’s tariff plan, as Southern and Midwestern states’ economies are more reliant on foreign imports.

A solid majority of Americans have a favorable view of the Affordable Care Act — repealing or replacing it would be unpopular as well as irresponsible.

Incredibly, people are still writing stories about how only the elite has benefited from the strong economy. In fact, the biggest gains have gone to low-wage workers

In the last 40 years, the American economy has surged ahead others. With real GDP tripling, American economic might is greater now than ever before. @Morning_Joe

[Paul Krugman @paulkrugman]

GDP growth at 2.8 percent, PCE inflation 1.5 percent. This puts a capstone on an incredibly successful response to the pandemic — even if many people won’t believe it https://t.co/Zn9ZhCchvw

[Steve Rattner @SteveRattner]

The Biden administration spurred a steep increase in investment in the US, and the IRA fueled a renaissance of American industry and robust GDP growth. @Morning_Joe

[Steve Rattner @SteveRattner]

To voters upset about post-pandemic inflation — price increases were a global phenomenon, especially in countries where consumers were able to outspend supply capacities. @Morning_Joe

[Steve Rattner @SteveRattner]

The American economy generates 36% more per person than European economies, and 61% more than Japan.

Despite what Trump may say, the American economy is still the envy of the world. @Morning_Joe

[Steve Rattner @SteveRattner]

The S&P has grown 51% since Biden took office, surpassing the markets of other rich countries, as well as Trump’s growth at the same time in his presidency. @Morning_Joe

In a disgraceful departure from the so-called Purcell principle which SCOTUS uses to reject changes too close to elections, they will permit Virginia to continue to remove voters from the rolls. The liberal justices all dissent.

[Daniel Dale @ddale8]

As Trump keeps lying that tariffs are just a tax on foreign exporters (they’re paid by US importers) and don’t even affect average Americans (the importers regularly pass along some or all of the cost to consumers), reality from @davidjlynch: https://t.co/52kkWa4DQK

[Paul Krugman @paulkrugman]

Actual GDP vs. CBO projections in January 2020 — and inflation basically at target. If this is policy failure, what would success look like?

[Steve Rattner @SteveRattner]

US annualized GDP growth was 2.8% in Q3 — the American economy remains strong.

A struggling Nevada mom suffers a miscarriage. Then the police show up and arrest her for manslaughter, and she's sentenced to 2.5-8 years in prison. Only when a pro bono lawyer steps up and appeals does a judge reverse the conviction and set her free to return to her children. This is family values? Think about that as you vote. https://t.co/ARvpf06dVP

RETWEET this. Every day. Until Election Day.

Anyone anywhere in America who tells you Donald Trump will be better for the economy needs this tweeted at them IMMEDIATELY.

In reality, crime is way down; Ds are right. Anyway, something to post before I go out to dinner in NYC with friends; pray for our lives in the urban hellscape that happens to be one of the safest places in America

[Steve Rattner @SteveRattner]

Americans might not be as down on the economy as we thought.

A new analysis by economists at Yale & Stanford found that a change in survey methodology is artificially lowering U Mich’s Consumer Sentiment index.
