Cites inflation, struggling consumer spending


Source? You're a known liar, so we can't just take you at your word...

Thanks to Joe we have increased crime

False. Crime is down.

open border

False. Biden has stopped more than 4 times as many border jumpers as Trump.

inflation at an all time high

False. Trump caused high inflation (nowhere near an all time high), but Biden's policies corrected it and now we're at a healthy 3%.

increased interest rates

True, but you only include that because you don't understand basic economy. The Fed increased rates to stop Trump's hyper inflation.

higher food prices

See above...

and terrible economy.

False. Biden inherited a terrible economy, but his policies have gotten it back under control. Remember that Trump raised the national debt to an all time high even before COVID, and his failure to respond to COVID properly caused a Debt to GDP Ratio of over 130%! That was a near record high, and the source of all of the subsequent economic problems. But Biden has lowered the Debt to GDP Ratio at a record rate, and the economy is doing great because of it.

B.S.; Big Lots lost shoppers when they left their close-out business model and adopted a business plan as a lower cost department store alternative that specializes in poorly constructed, low quality furniture.

Someone will be along with charts and graphs explaining that they were supposedly already closing during the Trump administration. So they went ahead and closed, nothing to do with inflation or crime.

interesting fact

Thanks to Joe we have increased crime, open border, inflation at an all time high, increased interest rates, higher food prices and terrible economy.


Time to get rid of the old man that has others pulling his puppet strings.
