How does that pertain to what I said about CRA?

the bolded part !
you talk specifically about house prices going up....

it isnt CRA , its interest rates !
U said it yourself.
So blaming on clinton ,makes no sense .

Quote:
"In total, of all the higher-priced loans, only 6 percent were extended by CRA-regulated lenders (and their affiliates) to either lower-income borrowers or neighborhoods in the lenders' CRA assessment areas, which are the local geographies that are the primary focus for CRA evaluation purposes. The small share of subprime lending in 2005 and 2006 that can be linked to the CRA suggests it is very unlikely the CRA could have played a substantial role in the subprime crisis.”
Quote:
"“Using loan origination data obtained pursuant to the Home Mortgage Disclosure Act (HMDA), we find that in 2005 and 2006, independent nonbank institutions—institutions not covered by the CRA—accounted for about half of all subprime originations. (See Table 1.) Also, about 60 percent of higher-priced loan originations went to middle- or higher-income borrowers or neighborhoods, populations not targeted by the CRA. (See Table 2.) In addition, independent nonbank institutions originated nearly half of the higher-priced loans extended to lower-income borrowers or borrowers in lower-income areas (share derived from Table 2)."
So yes, interest rates played a major roll in the bubble and the 2008 crash , like it does today with putting bank out of business as well.

CRA is irrelvant.

let’s not overlook one small detail at the bottom of the lawyers’ letter:
The correspondence concluded, “cc: Representatives of Congress.”

Trump argued that Congress should “demand” that federal prosecutors “stop the Witch Hunt against ‘TRUMP.’”

The best part of that letter is that he says that he's being treated unfairly and the Bidens are not, which means that the Bidens ARE being treated FAIRLY. So, Trump's dumb ass is now on record as saying that the DOJ is treating the Biden's, including Hunter, fairly. So, all his drooling followers can now STFU about Hunter.

I disagree. They need to focus on Hunter more than ever in 2024. Double down on those effective political strategies from the past. Hunter! Hunter!

Are you referring to Hunter Biden? Head of the Biden crime family, Hunter Biden?

All the best

Anyone, literally nearly anyone, is a better option than Trump. The future of the country and world is in serious jeopardy if he seizes power, so he needs to be stopped.

From a purely political perspective, Trump is a very weak candidate so I can see your point about Hunter. It didn't work in 2020 and it likely won't work in 2024 given how much weaker Trump has gotten. They should be able to crush him. But they can't. It's absolutely pathetic that the Democrats cannot come up with someone better than Biden. (It's pathetic that the GOP can't come up with someone better than Trump, but they created this monster when they sold their souls to the uneducated, religious nut culture warriors in the party. Trump now owns that base of dipshits, and that base of dipshits is needed to win any GOP primary. So, as one GOPer put it, they just need to wait for Trump to die so they can take the party back.)

Kind of a rude way to ask.

Picture a murky, yucky swamp that symbolizes a messed-up political system or a bunch of bureaucrats up to no good. When people say "drain the swamp," they want to clean up the mess, expose corruption, and kick out the folks who are just in it for themselves and to sell America out to globalists and other foreign powers/agendas.

No idea what that last sentence or picture are supposed to mean, but your answer leads to a follow-up - what makes you believe he's the best person to do what he couldn't in his 4 years as president? In other words, why do you think he'd do any better in a second term?

A 2nd term would leave any president without the burden of focusing on being re-elected. Also, his presidency was also his plunge into politics so he was a bit of a greenhorn while also being attacked constantly from all angles. Given these facts, I think it would be easy for him to outperform his 1st term.

Having said that, I will vote for whoever wins the primary if Biden is the top dem candidate. My hand is forced when you see how out of it Biden is.

Well, OK then. Thanks for the response, and I agree with the last sentence.

Trump will not leave power if given a 2nd taste of it. He stirred his followers to violence on Jan6 after losing. It is not reasonable to think he will go quietly. He’ll just claim some clause somewhere allows him to stay in power, idiots will believe it, and blood will run in the streets.

So your objection to Biden has nothing to do with policy. Noted. So, you’d be willing to vote for a democrat as long as it wasn’t Biden. Also noted.

Youre jump jump jumping to conclusions here. Maybe you should invent a mat for that

I'm not sure how anyone could read this and not come to the conclusion that you are anti-Trump. It's practically the definition of his entire life.

This is so delusional. What you saw between the election and January 6 is how Trump behaves when he feels like he has nothing left to lose. Trump's desire to get reelected was probably the only thing that kept his first term from being even worse than it was.

Dems tried to de-legitimize his victory with the russia-gate thing and it seemed likely almost every dem politician said trump wasn't the legitimate winner - trump saw how that didn't work. I guess you could say he gave that the ol' college try, but he didn't really commit to it like dems did because he didn't recruit - or didn't successfully recruit nearly the whole repub party to support him, which the dems were able to do.

If I was you I wouldn't worry about trump trying to use that play out of the Dem playbook. I would be more worried about trump using the Dem's other secret play out of the playbook where they convinced government agencies to help biden get elected.
