If Kamala wins then Republicans should let her do what she has promised.

DLD, people struggled to pay their bills under trump too.

This is not some sort of new phenomenon. I appreciate you for saying youre "good to go," but still choosing to whine for others.

If Kackles gets in Trump will incite his stormtroopers to riot throughout the USA and the RancidRepubs will block every piece of legislation she tries to put through, regardless of whether it's in the country's interest or not.

Yay for DLD the inflation expert extraordinaire. Lets see some factual proof for any of your claims.

Democrats saying inflation decreases is like saying someone gained 20lbs over the last two years and because they only gained 3 lbs the last three months that is good.

Anti thinks that companies price gouging is the cause of crooked Joe Bidens inflation. What a hoot.

Antithesis: No one cares about the fake government reports you like to post.
By which you mean... you don't care about facts, you only believe what Russian propaganda tells you. Gotcha.

How many times has the government put out jobs numbers only to revise them way down after no one cares anymore? I think it's like 6 quarters in a row.

How about the crime rates that were released right before the debate showing a drop in crime but then released a revised report after the debate showing an increase.

So don't tell me about your government "facts". You are the one being exposed to propaganda.

Anti, everything bad is Trump, everything good is crooked Joe Biden an Kamala.


Not at all. But as Trump himself said, Democrat policies are better for the economy. And that's what we're talking about here... the economy.

it was crooked Joe Biden an Joe Manchin "inflation reduction act" that cause the inflation we have today.

The Inflation Reduction Act passed on August 16, 2022...


And as you can see, the inflation rate decreased every month from August 2022 to June 2023, then stayed steady until around April 2024...

You can also see that the inflation rate began to go up in 2020, well before Biden was elected.

In fact, we know that the hyper inflation was caused by several things...

1. Lack of regulation that allowed companies to price gouge

2. The tariffs on China and other countries

3. A decrease in immigration that caused new home prices to skyrocket

4. Global inflation caused prices on imports to be higher

5. Kinks in the supply chains as a result of the pandemic


The facts just don't support your theory.

Big Sow, tell that to the ones struggling to pay their bills. Im good to go.

Great DLD! I appreciate your lack of understanding to the issue. America fared much better than other nations on inflation. Trump would have dealt with the same inflation but since youre asked to whine about it, you gleefully jump on.

Its easy playing monday morning quarterback!

Post Covid demand and supply chain issues played a major part in the ensuing inflation. This was predicted well before it happened.

However world wide dont make me like it any less. I just live in America.

DLD

I dont have a bit of trouble gripping it. It is your girl Anti who keeps saying its Trumps fault Big Sow.

It was world wide, something you cant seem to grip.

What Anti dont understand is it was crooked Joe Biden an Joe Manchin "inflation reduction act" that cause the inflation we have today. But you would have more sucess pulling hens teeth then get Anti to admit it.

No one cares about the fake government reports you like to post.

By which you mean... you don't care about facts, you only believe what Russian propaganda tells you. Gotcha.

Luckily for the nation, about half of the people do care about the facts. Just not you.

When Trump was in office things were cheap...

You say that because you don't understand basic economy. Trump inherited a great economy from Obama, so yes, things were good for awhile. By 2019 his damage had been done, which is why we saw the national debt start to skyrocket and hyper inflation began.

Biden inherited a collapsing economy, and he was able to reverse it in 2 years. Which is phenomenal, really.

You imagine that the President snaps his fingers and things happen, but that's just not the case. Trump wrote the 2021 budget in 2020, so we didn't even see Biden's first budget until 2022!

and we had no new conflicts...

True, but you say that like it's a good thing...? Trump had agreed to let Russia have Ukraine, and he stepped back to let North Korea and Iran build nuclear weapons. His actions (or, more accurately, his failure to act) bolstered our enemies and BRICS while it hurt us on the global stage.

Most would agree that this is not a good thing.

I don't know what stands out the most the MAGATS desperation or their frustration. They're frantically trying to find out ways of accusing the dem's of rigging the election while rigging it themselves. They know full well that if they don't steal it they can't win, as in 2016. Except for a few moderates the repub's are political thugs and they will fight dirty every time.

#3, same playbook for every election this clown has been in. 2016 was also "rigged" before it magically wasnt.

consul

Posted 1:33 pm, 10/30/2024

It still rankles with the MAGATS having to go from what they considered would be a walk in the park to a walk on the wild side. Now they've got their attorneys figuring how they're gonna sell Big Lie #2 "legally."
