USA 2024 US Presidential Election: Trump vs Harris (pt II)

Blue states have a higher quality of living, and subsidise the red states to a massive degree.

AP FACT CHECK: Blue high-tax states fund red low-tax states

WASHINGTON (AP) — Republican leaders have spent months promoting the myth that red low-tax states are subsidizing blue high-tax states because of the deduction for state and local taxes.

The Southeast states under Republican rule have overtaken the Northeast states in terms of GDP.

Nevada officially called.

Further proof - if any was required - that the average US voter gave a big thumbs down to chronic economic mismanagement, sub-standard border security and woke ideology.

What did US voters give a thumbs down to four years ago?

1-2% the other way in the swing states and it's a completely different picture.

I'd suggest a different issue at play - supply/support/complicity in certain war crimes

...and thumbs up to racism, a felon and a rapist. Good job at weaponising the word 'woke'.

Educate yourself.

The democrats blocked Judge Janice Rogers Brown appointment in 2003, a black female Judge.

Stop using Facebook and twitter as your sources.

AP’S ASSESSMENT: False. Brown was never nominated to the Supreme Court. Biden and other Democratic senators blocked Brown’s nomination to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit in 2003, although she was confirmed two years later.

An image shared widely on Twitter and Facebook shows a photo of Janice Rogers Brown, alongside the text: “FRAUD: It was Republicans who nominated the 1st Black woman to the SCOTUS & she was BLOCKED & filibustered by … wait for it ….. Joe Biden. Media: Crickets.” The image was posted by many social media users with over 2,000 shares on one Facebook post, and 20,000 likes on one Twitter post.

“Joe Biden blocked the first black female U.S. Supreme Court justice nominee back in 2003. Biden filibustered her nomination. Judge Janice Rogers Brown was her name. Never forget it,” reads another post on Twitter.

But Brown was never nominated to the Supreme Court. Instead, Democratic senators, including Biden, opposed and filibustered Brown’s nomination to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit in 2003.

A $100 Billion Wealth Migration Tilts US Economy’s Center of Gravity South​

Some 2.2 million people moved to the Southeast in just over two years. That’s roughly the population of Houston.

Drive along the 240-mile stretch of the Atlantic coast from Charleston, South Carolina, through the grassy marsh land of southern Georgia and down into northern Florida, and you’ll see one of the most profound economic shifts in the US today.

Welcome to the New New South.

Electric-vehicle factories and battery plants are overtaking pine forests in this region of antebellum architecture and shrimp and grits. More broadly, the entire South from here, north to Kentucky and west to Texas is where businesses are moving to, jobs are being created and homes are being bought. The uplift isn’t happening equally everywhere, or equally for everyone. But the implications for the entire country are enormous.


The numbers tell the story. For the first time, six fast-growing states in the South — Florida, Texas, Georgia, the Carolinas and Tennessee — are contributing more to the national GDP than the Northeast, with its Washington-New York-Boston corridor, in government figures going back to the 1990s. The switch happened during the pandemic and shows no signs of reverting.

A flood of transplants helped steer about $100 billion in new income to the Southeast in 2020 and 2021 alone, while the Northeast bled out about $60 billion, based on an analysis of recently published Internal Revenue Service data.

The Southeast accounted for more than two-thirds of all job growth across the US since early 2020, almost doubling its pre-pandemic share. And it was home to 10 of the 15 fastest-growing American large cities.

US South Economic Power on the Rise​

Corporations are also flocking there, with a record number of firms moving south after the pandemic, Census Bureau data show.

Oh I see its ok to block multiple Judges nomination as long as its not the Supreme Court Nomination?

California is on the decline

California, on the other hand, presents a stark contrast. Despite adding 223,600 jobs over the year, California’s
unemployment rate rose to 5.2 percent, the second highest in the nation, just behind the District of Columbia at 5.4 percent. This increase underscores the state’s challenges, including high taxes, stringent regulations, and a high cost of living, which collectively stifle business growth and job creation.

According to the Freedom in the 50 States report, California ranks 48th in fiscal freedom, 49th in regulatory freedom, and 48th in overall freedom. The Golden State ranks poorly compared with Texas and all but two states, New York and Hawaii, regarding overall economic freedom.
