2024 U.S. Presidential Election Thread: Donald Trump wins & will return to the White House; GOP wins U.S. Senate & U.S. House
- Thread starter FAH1223
- Start date
I voiced my disdain for him earlier so I'll go a little deeper...
His predictions aren't grounded in data. AFAIK, he just throws maps out there and calls it a day. He's like that Republican kid that went viral for saying Cali was going to Trump.
Saying Democrats would win Florida today is a stretch (Kamala hasn't won a poll there AFAIK) but since April, when Dems were still running Biden(!?!?!) Bouzy had Dems picking up Florida and winning a blowout:

Compare that with the polls who had Biden down between 8-15 points:
Perhaps he was clairvoyant and anticipated that Kamala would change the momentum of the race? Let's see what history says about his thoughts on removing Biden:
This is why the dude is bush league. He is a glorified version of Mark Cuban and Robert De Niro... yes they're famous and Democrats, but their tweets on policy/politics are no different than a random person on the Coli.
About a year ago he posted some political bombshell was coming a particular day/ week and nothing happened… I don’t trust this dude

They’re only priced out of the neighborhoods they believe that should be able to afford. There’s plenty of neighborhoods that they can afford

based on the articles I read anyone who is fortunate enough to buy a home seems pretty happy
I read an article last week about a couple who were happy because it's cheaper to buy than rent
buying a home and what is xyz is probably one of the most subjective things in life
i know multiple fthb that recently have purchased homes in decent areas
i also know folks that are renting places for 2k a month and think that they should be able to afford homes in that same area and they’re all 700k plus. These people won’t buy a home in area that they looked down on
it's up about 60%. unfortunately, my parents couldnt buy me a place in NYC
i had to do it myselfwealthy manhattan trust fund babies like you and donald trump are simply out of touch. Sad!

And @CrimsonTider point is valid. Inflated home prices are the primary factor in deterring fthb. High rates can be re-fi'd, paying $200K+ or more than what a home is worth, likely won't be recouped.
These gottdamn rappers/entertainers are the enemy of the people!!!

I'm not expecting 3% rates again.
I think 5 to 5.5 is reasonable
