Example of what can cause inflation: due to covid, during last year people didn't go out to restaurants, concerts, movies, trips to Australia, what have you, much, as compared with previous years.

Know what else causes inflation? Regulations, shutting down the keystone, pork-filled bills (which, admittedly Trump shouldn't have signed on at all) in the guise of "covid relief" and unnecessary spending, such as entitlements. But even as this was going on, inflation hadn't hit for almost 15 months in.
And you're actually right. It isn't Biden's fault. Not entirely, even. Maybe if the Democrats and the media weren't injecting fear porn into everyone about covid and actually let the economy run, things wouldn't be so fucked up, per your scenario.

They put together a lot of saved up money as a result. As things opened back up this year and as most people felt it was pretty safe to go out and spend again(thanks to the 94% effective vaccines) there was a sudden explosion of spending. This kind of event causes inflation. Demand went up sharply. Add to that many businesses had in 2020 cut back on inventory, since economics were so uncertain. That made supply go down for this year - also inflationary. So the person in the White House should have super powers to stop these kinds of things happening? That's just naive.
|
You know what the person in the white house should be doing? Telling everyone to get back to work and stop passing relief bills that give chickenshits free unemployment benefits. So, yeah, he actually does have quite the hand to play in how fucked up things are.

A fan of 45 I know (cult member in other words)once told me that he believed 45 was responsible for oil prices being low. But early 2015 was the time period that oil prices first dropped way down from where they had been, then they stayed low for years. It happened because of OPEC nations making the decision to purposely flood the market. Supply of oil then became plentiful worldwide ... dropping prices..(supply and demand) and that continued for years as oil companies then were in a position where they had no choice but practically give the shit away. Whoever is in the White House cannot control the price per barrel.

I am also a Trump supporter, but he wasn't without his faults. He should have fired Fauci the moment that weasel started taking every possible position on every possible situation. He also should have forced states to stop with the outrageous mandates massively fucked the economy. Regarding oil prices, I have never mentioned that. Even during Obama's time, oil prices were precipitously dropping.
Speaking of OPEC, funny how Biden shut down the pipeline which allowed us to produce our own energy out of concern for the environment, but then turns around and begs OPEC for more oil. Or OK's Russia's pipeline. Hrm.

So now you change your story on evicting citizens? Instead of forcibly throwing Democrat voters out, you're saying they will just leave of their own volition?
|
No, I'm saying if Democrats hate America so much, they can just leave. Seriously, how many of these liberal shitheads are calling America the most racist nation in the world, how America is the root of all evil, how awful the capitalist economy is and so on? Why are they still here? When Trump won in 16, why did all of those ass holes like the women on the View, Hollywood, athletes, music artists and such who claimed they would leave the country not fucking leave? Seriously, if America is damn awful, get the fuck out. This point has absolutely nothing to do with eviction, which is also something Biden overplayed his hand on.

And if they have different opinions than you then they must "hate" the country?

I mean ,when I see signs that says "FUCK AMERICA" and so on, I don't know. Maybe, just maybe, they hate America.

Trump is someone who predicted covid would magically disappear Easter 2020... how'd that work out?
|
No, he didn't say that. He said it would be nice if it ended by Easter, as sort of a religious symbol of sorts. If you're going to quote someone, do it right. thanks.

For facing a dangerous and very contagious virus we are far better off with a president who will actually face reality...go with science and reason(as the framers of the country would want) ..I don't know..that strikes me as better for some reason.

Really? Because it was Trump who removed the red tape that allowed these scientists and people of reason to develop the vaccine. It was also Trump who got the cavalry ready for ingrate states like New York in the form of a literal battleship armed with beds and ventilators. It was Trump that shut down travel from China (you know, where the vaccine originated) but was called racist by Biden and the Democrats. It was Trump that told Americans things are going to be okay VS Biden who got somehow got an erection after dropping fear porn on everyone.
What has Biden done? Go on, tell me. The vaccine wasn't developed under his administration. In fact, it was him and Kamala that were doubtful of the vaccine in the first place and playing politics with the science!! That's the guy you want to say is "following the science" Fuck off!

Division over vaccines and masks, etc have to do with anti-vaxers and those who believe Alex Jones, other nuts, and also can't accept the fact that Trump was so wrong about so many things.
|
Alex Jones hasn't been a part of the conversation since he got deplatformed. Quit using such a pathetic denominator. You wanna know who is divisive over masking and vaccines? Fauci, the CDC, the Biden administration, literally everyone who says "You have to do this, but I don't."
When Fauci says take the vaccine, but wear a mask. Then never mind on the mask. Then, maybe mask twice. Meanwhile, he's seen not wearing a mask when the cameras aren't rolling. Oh, and maybe the schools should shut down. Oh wait. Keep it open. Trump rallies are super spreaders but suspiciously quiet on liberal protests like the Black thugs matter protests. How the CDC marching at the whims of the Teacher's Union regarding school openings.
If you're going to try playing the science card on me, you'd better fucking do better than Biden.
So far, your post hasn't shown me any reason why the Democrats aren't to blame for how shitty things are. I suggest you try again. Only, this time, maybe you should be less wrong.
