To disagree with me is to hinge your whole argument on the Biden rescue plan. Which didn't help, but I would posit the Federal Reserve just beginning to reduce their balance sheet this month, and being 6 months late raising rates, is the biggest problem.

So while I never actually said that, your reason perhaps for not saying "my statement" and used "assumption" instead, is that it is your assumption, not mine and that says nothing about what I was saying.
But just to be clear, I did not say that if Trump were in office, none of this would be happening but again, what would not be happening is the US begging OPEC to produce the amount of oil and gas, that we stopped producing. And it is likely that the spending that caused all this inflation would not have happened with Trump in the White House and a Republican Senate.
But you'll get a chance to make that comparison come Nov., when the Republicans take over because of the lousy job Biden did.
I asked you a very simple question and all you could do rather than answer that very simple question is deflect.
So I'll ask you again, what is better under Biden? Economy, prices, foreign policy, cultural issues?
Have you noticed in the last few days how Progressives are getting their asses kicked by Democrats, rejecting Progressive ideas?
If things are better under Biden, why has Biden's approval numbers now dropped below Trump's and projected to go even lower?
CNN and MSNBC are tearing Biden a new asshole because they have given up on him along with 51% of Blacks and 76% of Hispanics jumping ship.
I'll tell you one thing that would be different if Trump was President, we wouldn't be going hat in hand to Venezuela and Saudi Arabia asking them to produce what we gave up producing.
Everything else would, I agree, be mere speculation but still not the very simple question I asked.
What is better under Biden?
