They really show off their creative flair when they try to mock “democrats” as “demon rats” or “demo craps” or something in all caps, and… Expect a little gold star or something?
The more flustered they are at random local news without a preexisting political bent, the more desperate they get lol.
Trust me I know the president doesn’t actually have a gods control of the economy and every little thing that happens in this nation. I’m not the type of idiot that says bidenflation seriously
Tbf every President regardless of party will take credit when the economy is good, so it’s hard to blame people for blaming the president when things are not going well for them.
Well… It was trump who destroyed our trade agreements, and then renegotiated for less favorable trade agreements. He also put tariffs on imported goods. Oh, and he fired a bunch of diplomatic staff. And then there was the whole thing where he weakened consumer protections. Don’t forget about slashing our public health and pandemic response teams just a few years before a major pandemic. Tax cuts to billionaires too, now that I think about it, allowed the richest 1% to klepto even more stuff and charge the common man man for it.
Yeah, if Trump was president right now, I’d still blame him for all the dumb shit he did.
What caused inflation in this instance was the uncontrolled spending/printing of money by our government, and their mandates to shutter large portions of our economy even after COVID was shown to be less of a risk than initially feared. It’s absolutely true that Trump was still president when it began and COVID was having a serious impact on our economy. What wasn’t Trump’s doing was the continued spending and closures well after COVID had been dealt with. We continued to pass multi-trillion dollar spending bills under the blanket of COVID relief which in reality had next to nothing to do with actual COVID relief. Instead, our government saw a once in a lifetime opportunity to have what was essentially a blank check, and oh boy did they capitalize on that. Take a look at Biden’s baby, the Inflation Reduction Act. It’s a prime example of this. Even now proponents admit it did little to stifle inflation.
It’s really impressive that you manage to fit both “when it’s our president they’re powerless and can’t be held accountable for anything at all, the poor baby” AND “when it’s their president they wield ultimate power and should be held directly and personally responsible for all in the world” into a single argument.
Usually yall just pick one per argument, because claiming both at once would be fucking dumb and explicitly, pointedly disengenuous. Yet here you are.
You clearly missed the point, but what can I expect…?
I have no issue whatsoever with you bashing my side. What I DO have an issue with is you bashing my side and then staying uncharacteristically quiet as your side does the same thing. Selective outrage is hypocritical and disingenuous. Even your response here illustrates to me that you aren’t willing to suck up your pride and be honest. Rather than focus on the specifics of what I’ve said you ignore it and attack me personally.
I would never consider Trump my guy. That being said I think he was treated unfairly by the media and those like yourself. Y’all spent 4 years claiming he was a Russian Manchurian candidate, that he would clearly start world war 3, that he would imprison his political opponents, and on and on. The sick part is Biden has come much closer to many of those accusations than Trump did and you STILL carry water for him. You should be ashamed.
Lmao what a nut job, arguing with a total figment of your imagination. You need to speak to a mental health professional, my guy.
To be clear though, I didn’t “attack you personally.” I attacked your commitment to an argument driven by two explicitly incompatible and perfectly opposite points. It’s clear from your reply though that you ARE a complete lunatic who thinks every person who isn’t you is some hyper specific stereotype out to get you specifically.
Bullshit. You say that because it’s what you would do. But I’m not like you. There is no universe in which I’m willing to adopt a bad-faith position simply to give my side a “win.” You find that hard to believe because you have squishy morals and no real sense of intellectual integrity.
I realize that sounds holier than thou, but it’s just the way it is. There are many others like me.
i heard someone talking about “Bidenflation” today
Couldnt have sounded dumber if he tried
Conservatives love nicknames. It’s like they are 8 year olds.
They really show off their creative flair when they try to mock “democrats” as “demon rats” or “demo craps” or something in all caps, and… Expect a little gold star or something?
The more flustered they are at random local news without a preexisting political bent, the more desperate they get lol.
That’s sounds like the “Justin-flation” from Pierre Poilievre from the Conservatives in Canada…
America (including Canada) is getting in a dumb conservative hell…
And my premier views DeSantis as a great inspiration 🙃
I saw someone calling Democrats “commusocialists.” That was great.
That’s a good one. It might top “I’ve done my research via Internet Explorer 5.0, horse dewormer for me please”
I’ve heard hundreds of times, started in December of 2020. It was a dumb the first time as now
What is Bidenflation?
The idea that Biden is personally responsible for increased inflation
extra funny when you realise a most of the ground work for the shit state the economy is in was laid under trump
That’s the Federal Reserves fault the President shouldn’t have a say in it.
Trust me I know the president doesn’t actually have a gods control of the economy and every little thing that happens in this nation. I’m not the type of idiot that says bidenflation seriously
Tbf every President regardless of party will take credit when the economy is good, so it’s hard to blame people for blaming the president when things are not going well for them.
Let’s be honest, if Trump were in office and inflation was happening y’all would be blaming him personally in exactly the same way.
Well… It was trump who destroyed our trade agreements, and then renegotiated for less favorable trade agreements. He also put tariffs on imported goods. Oh, and he fired a bunch of diplomatic staff. And then there was the whole thing where he weakened consumer protections. Don’t forget about slashing our public health and pandemic response teams just a few years before a major pandemic.

What does any of that have to do with inflation?

Who built the cages?
Probably someone’s fetish.
