Summary

President Joe Biden highlighted his administration’s economic record, citing consistent job growth and a 2.7% inflation rate drop from its 2022 peak.

December’s jobs report showed 256,000 new jobs and declining unemployment, signaling steady economic growth.

However, inflation remains above the Federal Reserve’s 2% target, and interest rates remain high, impacting homebuyers and businesses.

Public pessimism lingers on affordability as Biden passes a largely strong economy to his successor, Donald Trump.

    Nah, He didn’t.

    But you construct whatever batshit insane reality you need too bud. Everyone needs a boogey man that they can direct their self hatred toward.

    The quote made during a televised back and forth discussion with a doctor:

    “And then I see the disinfectant where it knocks it out in a minute. One minute. And is there a way we can do something like that, by injection inside or almost a cleaning?”

    Honestly, if the message you got from this quote was “HE SAID INJECT BLEACH!!”, you either have a severe comprehension issue, understand but still choose to live in your fantasy, or you just consider internet headlines the most credible source of news available.

      The message I get from that is this is one dumb motherfucker who shouldn’t be anywhere near power.

      Ok, sure. He asked about injecting disinfectant. That isn’t better. If he didn’t pretend to be smarter than experts that would be fine, but he can’t ask that and still say he knows best on how to handle a pandemic. His disregard for human life makes me angry. I wish him all the karma he is due.

      You ignored the look on the doctor’s face when he said that, didn’t you? Exactly what inside do you think he was talking about? He got the idea from doing it inside hospitals, so it wasn’t that.

      Yep I don’t like this mischaracterization either. What he said was at least as stupid but this meme using the word bleach won’t die. It’s very odd.
