Consumers spent $5.1 billion yesterday in the highest Black Friday ever! Granted, much of it was online, but the economy is booming due to the V shaped recovery. Online sales this year are expected to increase from last year's 3.6 percent to 5.2 percent, which is a jump of more than $7.5 billion dollars!

60% of all small businesses who planned temporary closure have permanently shut down. This is the biggest challenge for Joe Biden after the COVID19 control problem.

Tell this to all of the people lining up at the food bank, and the others who are now losing their jobs. I didn't even buy anything through black friday deals.

You can blame your Dem leaders for that due to closing down. But the economy is still firing on all cylinders.

Black Friday online sales have increased by 21.5 percent from last year, which was before COVID and was a record in itself.

Thanksgiving online sales were $9 billion, which is a 22 percent increase.

Cyber Monday is projected to be $12.7 billion, which is a 35 percent increase and the biggest shopping day in US history.

No, I can blame trump for not having a national plan for everyone, and McConnell for not giving a crap about any of us. He was more concerned with stealing another Supreme Court seat, than getting help to the American people. He’s gross, and actually worse than Trump.

And what national plan do you suggest? What do you think Biden can do? The federal government can't tell the states what to do. Had President Trump tried to do so, you would have been the first to feign outrage--following the media's lead, no doubt. President Trump followed everything the health experts told him to do. During his campaign, Biden kept saying what President Trump was already doing as what he would do, except for a so-called national mask mandate and flirting with a national lock-down, which you now would praise, since it isn't President Trump doing it.

McConnell wasn't the one who stopped relief. It was Pelousy who kept rejecting the ever-increasing bills, because she wanted permanent changes with mail-in voting, i.e., easy access to fraud.
