So I suppose you returned the COVID stimulus checks from Biden with a note saying "I don't accept blood money"?

Trump did not make the COVID virus, Dr Anthony Fauci did. You know, the witch doctor protected by the Democrats.

If it costs more to build stuff overseas then they would build it here. DUH


That's not how tariffs work.

The tariffs didn't increase their overhead to build overseas, that's ridiculous. What it did was add a tax to the product before it could be imported into the US.

They were still able to offer lower prices to the other 7.8 billion people in the world.

All it did was raise OUR prices. The manufacturers made the same money either way.

Moose, in the other thread you've already admitted that Trump's tariffs on China is one of the primary causes of the hyper inflation that we all know began in 2020.

I know that you desperately want to blame it on Biden, but anyone that's paying attention knows this to be wrong.

Trump arrived in Newport Beach, California, on Saturday for a rally hosted by a health insurance entrepreneur, John Word, and his wife, Kimberly, according to CBS News.

Tickets for the event reportedly ranged from $3,300 for the lunch reception, and $6,600 for each couple. For a photo opportunity, it was $35,000 or raising $75,000. For members of the roundtable host committee, it was $100,000 per person, according to the website for the Republican Party of Orange County.

The fundraiser at the Word's home in Newport Beach comes as the former president has been campaigning in California for the past several days. During a fundraiser on Thursday at the home of entrepreneur David Sacks in Silicon Valley, Trump raised $12 million.

Hep is spot on.

Truly is remarkable. Not enough to eat but enough to send a billionaire to show how innocent he is.

My wife and I are retired and living on a fixed income, we were doing OK until Georgie dumped the economy '07. When he took USA from having a surplus to massive debt, he took most of our retirement income with it. Things were looking better towards the end of Obama's presidency thanks to his efforts to repair Georgie's mess, then along came Trump! Trump in his infinite fiscal wisdom borrowed $8.7 trillion to give a huge tax break to those that neither needed it nor deserved it.

And yet despite the additional damage to the economy from the pandemic (badly mismanaged by Trump) we still manage to struggle on and survive. So quit your whining and if you see someone in dire straits help 'em out and stop pissing and moaning about a situation brought about by people YOU support.

The people who say the economy is terrible are bragging about giving a billionaire 54 million dollars.

Americans don't care about Trump charges, they care about surviving what Biden has done to them
