So let me get this straight: gas prices spiked right when Trump dumped the Iran deal, and now (at least in my neck of the woods) they're at "only slightly worse than they were before that happened." And of course to some extent that's natural price movement, since nixing the deal happened right before summer, and it's almost winter now. So he's both taking credit for all that, and the credit he's taking is "I screwed things up massively, and now it's only a little worse than if I'd done nothing!" Art of the Deal.

Also don't the gas prices typically go down around now because of the whole "winter blend" thing?

I live right across the lake from Ohio and I honestly never knew it was suffering the same fate as our maritime provinces with young people fleeing in huge numbers. Is it a recent phenomena or has the state slowly been building up to this event? Are there any other states in a similar situation? Its hard enough to deal with up here with multiple parties, I cant imagine how much harder it would be in your system for the Dems to even begin to tackle that kind of drastic demographics shift.

Is it a recent phenomena or has the state slowly been building up to this event? Are there any other states in a similar situation? A lot of states in that region around the Great Lakes, which we generally refer to as "The Rust Belt," are seeing major flight by young people because there are no opportunities for them in the area. In addition to Ohio, western New York, western Pennsylvania, Kentucky, northern Illinois, Wisconsin and Michigan are losing a lot of their youth populations due to lack of jobs. Kansas is also in this club due to its unique skullfucking by conservative economic experiments ruining the state enough that they elected a Democrat governor this midterm. Certain other states are also losing young people due to the "glass ceiling," issue of high cost of living and high competition for the jobs that can actually sustain that cost. Massachusetts, Connecticut, New Jersey and some parts of California and New York have this issue. A lot of these young people are ending up in the places where there is a good compromise between current opportunity, growth potential and still-reasonable cost of living. Most of these places are in the west, which is why urban-spawl California, Washington, Oregon, Colorado and New Mexico have become ever-more deep blue, Nevada has gone from purple to blue, and Arizona and Texas are going from Red to Pink or even Purple. Similar effects are being seen in the urbanizing southern states, especially Georgia and North Carolina, which is why those states are tilting blue as well. I think Minnesota and Virginia are also in this club, which is why they're getting bluer. Also based on a couple articles I read a lot of people are heading for Vermont. I guess their experiment in paying people to live there if they telecommute to other states is working.

with minnesota (which hillary only won by a rat's rear end hair in 2016) there's also the question about whether the increasing blue tilt of the twin cities' burbs can outpace the increasing chudification of the large rural portions of the state, given how we ended up trading MN-01 and MN-08 for MN-02 and MN-03

I do wonder if in the next ten years you may see the opposite, companies and people moving back into more rust belt states due to the lower intial start-up costs and cost of living. The biggest problem with Ohio is that it's majorly manufacturing focused and then healthcare. We don't have a real tech industry that can compete with Cali or New York. It is getting to the point where companies are backstabbing each other for actual trained and qualified manufacturing workers and if it keeps up we will see other opportunities. The only issue is manufacturing tends to self select for uh racist assholes since it is pure blue collar work.

thats doubtful given that time a car maker went back to Canada because a poo poo whole state was too illiterate and couldnt use all text training manuals. The more likely scenario is they throw enough money to import educated workers into their neo Company Town. Which is fine as long as birthright citizen ship is a thing.

It should be pointed out that this is only happening around Cleveland. Central Ohio is experiencing explosive population growth and a dive bombing average age. People go to OSU and they never move back because of the amount of companies hiring in Columbus. Cincinnati has a similar retention rate with it's college graduates. People have no reason to ever stay or go back to Cleveland unless they're already too old to move. They've completely failed to improve the inner city as quickly as Cincy and Columbus, so no companies are starting up or moving there.

The growing urban-rural divide in the northern mid-west is probably the biggest challenge the Democrats are going to face in terms of presidential politics in the coming decade. If Ohio is as far gone as it seems and Florida is not far behind, Minnesota, Michigan and Wisconsin are absolutely crucial to any democratic electoral strategy. Shoring up bulwarks in Iowa and Pennsylvania to make those safer states, and pushing hard to flip North Carolina, Georgia and Arizona are also keys. All of these states except maybe Penn have the same urban/rural split issue, but it's not an insurmountable one. Jinkies gang, this stock market volatility sure is a mystery. Maybe Old Man Trump who runs this haunted amusement park has some ideas about what's causing it?

There's something morbidly amusing about the fact that Trump couldn't take Thanksgiving off from being a racist monster and just repeating some nonsense about thanks, family, football*, and troops but instead did an actual "lets do the opposite of the bs Thanksgiving legend message".

It is getting to the point where companies are backstabbing each other for actual trained and qualified manufacturing workers and if it keeps up we will see other opportunities. The only issue is manufacturing tends to self select for uh racist assholes since it is pure blue collar work. By far the greatest concentration of industry and population in Ohio is in the northeast corner of the state- but at the moment it's actually quite hard for industry or businesses to move into that area and get established. One of the big reasons for this is one of the unforeseen compounding impacts of the complete or near total lack of any form of public transportation in most of Northeast Ohio. I need to explain how most of Northeast Ohio is structured first off, it's a huge stretch of suburban and occasional moderately-rural areas with occasional 10 square (city) block concentrations of commercial areas. There are parts of Northeast Ohio where you can be at a major mall*, and there is another major Mall in all the compass directions within a 5-mile radius, and those models also have another major mall basically within 5 miles of all their compass directions too. There's probably a roughly hundred and forty mile Stretch of the northeastern corner of Ohio that is more or less like this. The reason that the lack of public transportation is a major problem in sprawl like this is that 1.) every adult needs their own personal vehicle and 2. This means that basically everywhere that humans go needs a large enough parking lot to accommodate one car per human being. Every commercial location needs a full-size parking lot capable of handling traffic on their busiest day of the year. Every large employer needs a parking lot capable of handling a vehicle for every employee they have. Every house needs a garage and every apartment complex needs plenty of space to handle the two to three cars a family of four probably has. As a result everywhere in northeastern Ohio has these absolutely gigantic (and these days mostly empty) parking lots that cause everything to be incredibly spread out and inconvenient. You need a car to get by in Northeast Ohio not just because there are no sidewalks and no buses and no trains- you need a car because everywhere you need to (from a grocery store in your budget range to the doctors office) get to is at least 10 to 15 miles away from each other- and often double that. Compounding this problem is the massive numbers of effectively empty and abandoned industrial parks that are crumbling away. If you want to take over and refurbish an industrial park in Ohio you're looking at some major expenses because everything has often just been left to rot.** The result of the combination of these factors is that Ohio starts to look a lot less attractive to relocate to once you start crunching the actual numbers on the Practical Logistics of how your operation will function in northeast Ohio. *in fairness many if these malls are basically closed now. **One quick example: When the Carousel Dinner Theater in Akron(one of the largest in North America at the time) closed it was simply abandoned. Its roof collapsed a few years later and rainwater created an indoor artificial pond in the orchestra pit and lower portions of the house. This pond eventually became such a massive source of mosquitos that the city was forced to intervene.

The guys actually managed to reach cartoon villain levels of narcissism since becoming president to the point where I just can't take it seriously as anything other than desperate. I really can't wait for the day the world doesn't have to listen to this guys bleating and obsession with self worth. It's kind of depressing in it's own right. Like happy thanksgiving troop fuckers, blahblahblah immigrants bad and I'm the greatest. I like how even John Kirby was like "Yeah well you know Trump gonna Trump so are we really at all surprised". The only thing I kind of want to know out of all this is where is it that his base continues to get this idea that he cares about them even remotely anyway? He still does those rallies but it has absolutely nothing to do with them, it's about him getting to be the center of attention on a stage. Aka the only thing he ever liked about the idea of being President while they just look dumb and confused as all gently caress in the background and like they need a cue at every turn to tell them when to cheer, boo and chant. Other than that he just shits on people daily and embarrasses himself and the White House with how childish he is about literally everything as he closes out year 2.

Antagonize the other side of a political divide constantly and daily for no actual gains as a society on the national or even world stage, but call the country the "United" states. We're just not making anywhere near as much progress as a species during the 21st century as we were during the last decades of the 20th, which is impressive since most of that was spent with two super powers engaged in a cold war.
