Ah yes, simply tens of millions of administrative anomalies. Don't worry about the knock-on effects on proportional representation, crime, wages, and social cohesion. It's not like the people are an important part of a constitutional republic.

How about looking at the data for recent presidents!

Annual returns by President

George W Bush -5.6%
Trump (current term 4.6%)
Reagan 10.2%
George H Bush 11%
Biden 11.9%
Obama 12.8%
Trump (1st term. But what volatility) 13.6%
Clinton 15%

Now index that to the plummeting value of the USD

Oh no! Only up 9% YTD?!? That’s almost the exact historical market average return…

The market beats out the vast majority of hedge fund managers. How did you completely gloss over the fact that plummeting currency values + rebounding inflation directly means real gains are modest at best?

The current president has done plenty of self enriching while in office, orchestrated a few different pay-for-play moves, and openly manipulated the stock market to his friends' benefit.

There's plenty of room for criticizing the Dems, but at least pick something the actual head of the other party isn't guilty of doing on a grander scale.

Advice needed on handing in notice, I recently signed an offer letter and understand the screening process takes 4-6 weeks. I have a month's notice period and have agreed a preliminary start date in Feb.
