President Biden: The NEW one and only politics thread

A. Why are consumer prices so high? Because companies are price-gouging.

2. Why are they price-gouging? To tank the economy for working stiffs.

iii. And why is that? So Biden gets blamed by the little people and Trump gets re-elected.

IV. And why is that? Big, fat tax cuts again, baby, and then the little people can have jobs and groceries again.

That's the GOP cycle: Spend like crazy when they hold the power, then tank the economy when they get booted.

The Dems should hammer this home at every turn, and especially thoughout this current wave of inflation.

The billionaires and the corporate overlords are making a killing and laughing like hell at the rest of us.

 

A handjob in every pot.

 

Fine. I agree that it's silly to look at a COVID-related, abnormally high unemployment number as a reference point.
It's also silly to blame inflation on Biden and suggest that it stems entirely from the stimulus without acknowledging that said stimulus was another consequence of COVID.
And as for pointing back to 2020, nobody does it better than Trumpists, who forget that their boy made COVID even worse than it had to be. They still worship at the altar of freedumb even though their states suffered more than others when stats are justifiably adjusted for factors such as age and population density.

 

Eventually there will be better news.

 

And they reelected their governors. So they're seemingly fine with it, as they live in those states. It's the people who don't live in those states, who aren't affected by these governors' polices, who seem to do the most screeching. And that's always puzzled me.

 

Perhaps because we're talking about an infectious disease and a society that can travel from state to state. Unlike the pandemic of a century earlier, when there were no Interstate highways, relatively few cars and far fewer people.
