Also, the narrative that the economy is somehow ‘bad’ or unfavorable for Harris is INSANE. Here is the chief economist from Moody’s:

Mark Zandi, chief economist at Moddy’s said “ I've hesitated to say this at the risk of sounding hyperbolic, but with last week's big GDP revisions, there is no denying it: This is among the best performing economies in my 35+ years as an economist. Economic growth is rip-roaring, with real GDP up 3% over the past year.
Unemployment is low at near 4%, consistent with full employment.
Inflation is fast closing in on Fed's 2% target - grocery prices, rents and gas prices are flat to down over the past more than a year. Households' financial obligations are light, and set to get lighter with the Fed cutting rates. House prices have never been higher, and most homeowners have more equity in their homes than ever. Corporate profits are robust, and the stock market is hitting a record high on a seemingly daily basis. Of course there are blemishes, as lower-income households are struggling financially, there is a severe shortage of affordable homes, and the government is running large budget deficits. And things could change quickly. There are plenty of threats. But in my time as an economist, the economy has rarely looked better.”

How does this not result in the largest mobilization of law enforcement since the Blues Brothers? Seriously, we just move away and go on with our day?

Huh…I stand corrected. I swear the last time I went (admittedly a while ago) it was a swing and a miss. Very possibly conflating it w/ Second Ave. Stoked to go back now!

But no Swiss, right? So also not a real Reuben.
