Follow along. Politically homeless? Rejected the MAGA circus and the Progressive echo chamber? Let’s build a space for the rational middle.

[Matthew Stark @USA3rdParty]

On one side, the GOP has been overtaken by a MAGA movement that prioritizes loyalty and grievance over policy, leaving traditional conservatives politically homeless. On the other side, Progressives have pushed the Democratic party into echo chambers filled with insanity that alienate everyday moderates.

I suspect that the millions of us stuck in the middle have a lot more in common than the extremes want us to think.

This page is for the politically homeless. We’re going to disagree, but we’re going to do it with civil discussions, common sense, and logical conclusions.

Hit follow if you're ready to build something better.

@StealthQE4 The market is viewing the TACO timeline. They don’t believe a devastating war is coming. Markets are believing the idiot will take a shit deal, frame it as win, and move on. Hint: this is probably the base case.

@JamieBonkiewicz “Consumers just got to enjoy higher prices”

I’m struggling to understand how people don’t pick up on sarcasm there. Even morons don’t enjoy higher prices, it’s sarcastic however I think about it.

[Matthew Stark @USA3rdParty]

@JamieBonkiewicz The tariffs were paid by foreign countries, consumers just got to enjoy higher prices. Stop complaining and thank your government!

@LoganMohtashami Don’t forget the Tariff Dividends!! Aren’t tariffs going to replace income tax? While we’re at, let’s just take the deficit up to $4T and blow the budget to oblivion!

Note: sarcasm

@texasrunnerDFW 10 year on Inauguration Day was 4.6%, today it’s just a touch north of that. Promises made, promises broken. I guess 20 months and control of the House, Senate, & Supreme Court weren’t enough to implement policies that reduced rates.

@DeItaone According to a recent Trump press conference, the strait is currently open to all recreational swimming, water skiing, de-mining activities, and snorkeling.

@ojessie__ “We’re going to need a bigger boat”

[Matthew Stark @USA3rdParty]

@LoganMohtashami This is incredibly misleading and still a lie. Combining existing and new construction we will still wind up in the 4.5-4.7 range this year. Existing running at a paltry 3.9-4.1

@Aerovances You serious Clark?

@Johnny3Wiggle @mroselli13 @JamieBonkiewicz Step 1: Read my other replies just in this thread alone

Step 2: Look at any other post I’ve made

Step 3: Look in mirror

@unusual_whales Fixed:

NEWS: Trump says he is privately begging for a deal.

@ekwufinance 4.75% is near inflection point, 5% is ultimate TACO time.

[Matthew Stark @USA3rdParty]

@SpencerHakimian It’s low enough, exaggerating it makes you look deceptive. It’s currently in the 35-38% range, which is awful, but still way too high.
