Democrats’ fear-mongering about the Trump economy is looking more and more like sour grapes.

Yesterday’s CPI report, showing inflation of 2.7 percent — well below the expected 3.1 percent — was bad political news for Democrats. Since “Liberation Day” in April, when President Trump rolled out tariffs aimed at resetting global trade in favor of U.S. companies, the left and their media allies have warned voters that the White House’s actions would clobber our economy and set inflation soaring.

It hasn’t happened. The tariffs have only modestly boosted prices. Instead, the Trump agenda of higher energy production, lower budget deficits and lighter regulation has brought inflation down. While inflation averaged 5 percent annually under former President Joe Biden, and in four years jumped by nearly 22 percent, as of November it is rising at 2.7 percent.

Would you remind me again who created the “affordability crisis?”

As inflation continues to recede from the lofty 9 percent level recorded under Biden, voters may realize just how much damage was done by Joe’s budget-busting big government spending.

Another narrative that is under fire is that Trump-backed AI is a gift to billionaires but is going to destroy U.S. employment, much like the trade pacts of the 1990s that sent jobs overseas. But two new studies counter that claim. As it turns out, AI is actually creating jobs for Americans.

In its year-end note to investors, investment firm Vanguard writes that AI is not responsible for slowing job growth. They point to data showing that “the approximately 100 occupations most exposed to AI automation are actually outperforming the rest of the labor market in terms of job growth and real wage increases.”

Accompanying graphs show hiring in AI-affected occupations growing at 1.7 percent during the two years mid-2023 to mid-2025, compared to only 1.0 percent pre-COVID, and compared to 0.8 percent for other kinds of jobs. Similarly, real wage growth for AI-involved hires is advancing at 3.8 percent, compared to 0.7 percent for other occupations.

The authors of the study suggest that “current AI systems are generally enhancing worker productivity and shifting workers’ tasks toward higher-value activities.”

Strategy consultancy Teneo’s most recent CEO and Investor Outlook Survey backs up Vanguard’s assessment. They write, “most CEOs and investors [are] expecting AI to drive an increase in hiring across all levels in 2026.” The survey shows that over two-thirds of CEOs expect AI to generate increased hiring of both entry-level and mid-career applicants; a majority sees a rise in hires for senior leadership. Investors, interestingly, are even more bullish that AI will boost hiring.

These projections are reassuring, since the left has been issuing gruesome predictions about the rapid growth of AI. To quote Bernie Sanders, “there is a very real fear that, in the not-so-distant future, a super-intelligent AI could replace humans in controlling the planet.”

In addition to predicting the demise of human authority, the Vermont senator also published an op-ed on the Fox News website citing a report suggesting that “AI, automation and robotics could replace nearly 100 million jobs in America over the next decade,?including 40 percent of registered nurses, 47 percent of truck drivers, 64 percent of accountants, 65 percent of teaching assistants and 89 percent of fast food workers, among many other occupations.” Sanders is so unhappy about AI that he is pushing for a moratorium on new AI data center construction?to?“give democracy a chance to catch up.”

Even assuming there is some truth to Bernie’s alarmism, if the U.S. slows down its AI push, China will surpass us. Do we really want China dominating the manufacturing of the future? No — to let China take the lead would be dangerous indeed.

Bernie’s concern about AI’s impact on employment is likely genuine. But many of his Democrat colleagues are blasting the boom in AI spending because they recognize the fast-emerging industry is turning into a wind at the back of the Trump economy. They know that the midterms will hinge on jobs and growth, and that the huge amount of money flowing into building out data centers, our electrical grid, new power plants and other related activities is likely to spur solid growth in 2026.

That is one reason blue states have been trying to choke AI development with regulation. Trump recently issued an executive order to prevent Democrat officials from creating regulatory roadblocks to AI development. There were some 1,000 bills making their way through state legislatures; given the opportunity, those new and sometimes contradictory laws would have stopped AI growth in its tracks.

If the economy is humming next year, with real wages rising, inflation moderating and productivity rising — which is likely — Republicans could well keep control of the House. That would give Trump two more years to work on resetting global trade, reforming our fraud-riddled welfare programs improving our broken immigration system and possibly to move to other ambitions, like buttressing voter integrity.

The left cannot tolerate that prospect. Therefore, in addition to fighting the president at every turn, slow-walking his appointments, challenging every executive order in the courts and most recently prolonging the longest government shutdown in our history, they have been constantly ringing alarm bells about the economy. Early on, they warned Americans about Trump’s tariffs; now they are focused on AI, which is not only fueling investment in our country but also the stock market.

They fear that rising share values (a bubble!) could boost spending, which in turn fuels growth and hiring.

Democrats’ campaign against AI has been effective. David Sachs, the White House AI czar, says that China is leading the U.S. in only one area: optimism. He points out that 83 percent of Chinese people are optimistic about AI, compared to only 39 percent of Americans. How sad is that?

Hopefully, as AI leads to critical medical breakthroughs and helps boost productivity and growth, voters will see the new technology as an agent for progress, and will cheer its development. Maybe even Bernie Sanders will get on board.

That article was written by Liz Peek. What is the connection between Liz Peek and Trump?

Everybody, and I mean EVERYBODY you've ever posted were so far up Joe Biden's* asshole they were able to see firsthand his dementia from the inside of his skull.

And they still lied to you about him every single day.

And you allowed it.


Go fuck yourself, stupid.

You should know that the worst people are paid to lie. It is their profession.
