  1. I know this strategy will have zero impact on those as deeply bias as yourself, but millions of Americans aren't that far gone, left or right. Inflation could be 221% and people like yourself would be trying to explain it all away, or just ignoring it. Millions won't, and that's the vote which will decide the election.

    Did or not inflation hit every developed economy?
    Yes
    Which major economy has has the least ill effects?
    USA

    As Trumpers used to say "fuck your feelings", these are the facts. Nothing more complicated than a pandemic shut it all down, massive spending to prevent sinking and the ultra wealthy did not to take any pandemic losses, they made up the profits in the following years.

    That's what the rich do. That's what near every business , even small businesses did afterwards, gouge their lost profits back and kept going.

    Worldwide.

    Trump was never going to make it different as he would be attacking business.

    People like that go to flagship state universities, not a school with no admission standards like Chadron State. Usually in an honors program.

  4. No, the fabricated pandemic didn't shut it all down, democrat governors and mayors shut it all down with a gross overreaction to a fucking flu bug. A stronger than usual flu bug, yes, but the flu none the less.Political hacks shut it all down to swing an election. Credit where credit is due, brilliant strategy, well executed. Trump went along with it and that was his undoing.
    All water over the damn. New election, new problems, and Trump needs to laser focus on those problems of he wants to win, buy he can't help himself. The guy just loves to trade insults. He is easily distracted that will cost him the election unless Kamala really steps in it, and her handlers along with a very cooperative media will provide cover and run interference to protect her from herself.

    Trump shut it down after being months late starting to react.

    Then it would all be over by Easter, poof.

    We were all there.

    A lot of people (like several employees I had) live paycheck to paycheck. Inflation is killing them every time they go grocery shopping.

  9. Trump actually said he doesn’t buy bacon when he shops at the grocery store because it’s gone up 4,000%. $3.99x40, $160 a packet.


    Bacon was $6.00 in 2020. It’s $5 now on sale.
