Haven't read today's posts but supposedly some of the new Senators Trump helped push to victory went against him in this vote.
And you are just as disingenuous if you give Trump a pass on the Covid economy while completely discounting the inflation that would have slammed any President post COVID.Any point you try to make dies when you reference the 14%. You’re disingenuously pretending Covid didn’t happen and the economy wasn’t thriving at levels never seen before up to that point.
Look. Nobody left their house in the world for almost 2 years.
Then Trump sent out 2 checks and Biden sent 1 to the American people.
Once COVID slowed the entire world celebrated by spending like drunken sailors. Couple the spending with the supply chain issues as businesses came back online....Huge demand/low supply.
That is Econ 101 and why inflation went thru the roof.
The US recovered faster than any country in the world and has brought down inflation without sending us into a recession.
Trump doesn't deserve any more crap over the COVID economy than Biden does for the inflation resulting from the economic rebound.
Took Reagan 4 years to get inflation down to 3.9 percent.
Took Biden 4 years to get inflation down to 2.4 percent.
@tommyg4uk called it again, correctly, I might add. Gent is amazing.Haven't read today's posts but supposedly some of the new Senators Trump helped push to victory went against him in this vote.
I usually like him but that kind of bombed.
Last time they wore safety pins on their shirts/jackets/sweaters. Fing fools...Mental disorder pandemic. Please wear the blue bracelets so I know who to avoid in public.
You’re a freaking idiot. Do I need to find one of the countless videos of Trump saying we need to open the economy asap while Dems refused? They’re out there. He was quoted multiple times saying “the cure can’t be worse than the disease” which ended up being the case.And you are just as disingenuous if you give Trump a pass on the Covid economy while completely discounting the inflation that would have slammed any President post COVID.
The world spent almost 2 years in their house while we were getting Checks from Trump (2) and Biden (1).
Once Covid lifted, the entire country and world spent money like drunken sailors.
Couple that with the supply chain issues from businesses slow rate of rehiring and it's no wonder inflation wasn't higher.
Can't give Trump a pass on the crappy COVID economy and then blame Biden for the inflation from the post COVID consumer spending.
COVID was the root of both issues.
I agree 100%. Happy to move on from the stupidity of identity politics. But that means you can’t pull the race card when we discuss voter ID laws. It also means you’ll have to remove “xenophobe”, “homophobe”, “transphobe, and “racist” from approximately 95% of your response posts.Hopefully this repudiation of identity politics will let us get back to arguing over bread and butter kitchen table issues instead of drag queens. Not holding my breath that a failed Democratic Party gets the message though.

I have an opposing view of Obamacare. We reached our family deductible every year in Aug/Sep timeframe. Now, we never hit it and our bills have tripled. I'd guess he has cost us at least 100K. King Barry can go F himself. Oh, and our premiums doubled.Obamacare hasn't been the devil we originally thought and has helped many. Were it not for Mitch, this country would not have the many conservative justices we do in all branches of the court system, inc. SCOTUS, and Garland would be wearing a robe. He has also helped this state financially quite often over the years. Defend him, yes, I will.
I gave up on the Republicans after Newt signed the contract with America, and then proceeded to do jack squat. Wasted all their f***ing time worrying about Clinton's crank and where it had been instead of dealing with REAL issues. F*** the Republicans right in the ass.It’s amazing how similar the Republican establishment is to democrats. They’re supposed to serve the people. The people just delivered a sweeping mandate for the MAGA agenda, and yet Rs continue to think they’re better than the people and need to do the opposite.
McConnell, Graham, Ryan, et al need to be strapped to one of elons rockets and sent to mats.
The same reason McConnell kept getting elected in KY. Graham is too powerful for the Republican party to break away from him and devote the type of money and resources to defeat him in a primary. Maybe it would take a self-funded billionaire type to run against him.Is there not anyone else in the GOP that SC can run against Graham in 2 years? How does this guy keep getting elected??!
Here is the funny thing about Austin's wise words...you see a quote and think 'did they really say that?'
And you look it up, and they really did say that sh-t haha
Never, EVER, question AustinTXCats veracity, or you're getting knocked the f*** out by a 6 foot 2 inch, 250 pound Clown. 🤣 🤣 🤣
I really AM 6'2" (I might have taken liberties with the weight) Either way, I don't want any of you. 🤣🤣My good friend the clown said he is 6'2 and weighs 250...which means he is 5'11 and 300 haha
"Multiple sincere efforts" my ass. When? Please name multiple times. Is that the lies you tell yourself to make you feel better? Is this the "thinking" that always allows you to play the victim? Boo hoo. Oh, and it wasn't eating babies, it is sacrificing babies. That is something that has happened for thousands of years. I shouldn't have to tell a "history" major. Are you denying that children have never been sacrificed?I’ve made multiple sincere efforts with you too. Watched all your linked videos about liberals eating babies. Yet it’s still pure, unadulterated vitriol from you 24/7.
Those of us who use X actually know what's going on in the world. You just have to find the right people to follow and who to ignore. If people are constantly wrong on stuff then people quit paying attn to them... unlike cnn who just doubles down on being wrong again and again. LOL.I am amazed that people think X is a reliable source of news.
Notice nobody is talking about those bomb threats on the media anymore... because they dems callled them in to buy time to get more votes.
Eh, it is the crowd. He made human comments about Trump and those close-minded morons can't handle it.I usually like him but that kind of bombed.
Think you could take this guy?Never, EVER, question AustinTXCats veracity, or you're getting knocked the f*** out by a 6 foot 2 inch, 250 pound Clown. 🤣 🤣 🤣
I thought election deniers got removed from unsocial media?!? Oh, yeah ... that only happens to conservatives...never mind. My bad.Election deniers.
KABcats is the modern Democrat voter. It's just going to get worse over the next few years. DSA types have taken over the dem party. They continue to kick people like Tulsi out of the party and suck up to people like AOC.
There will not be a better appointment.How much tolerance does Tom Homan have?
ZERO; Tom Homan has ZERO tolerance. 🤣 🤣
Lot of people pretending they are moving to Britain due to election but they are going over there to shoot movies because they have become too expensive to film here. Cali is losing tons of work and people are being laid off in crazy numbers. California has reached the "running out of other peoples money" part of the equation. LOLIf only
Trump isn't a Republican. He never was, and he never WILL be. He's an independent.
10x more reliable than any Liberal “news”site. You need to actually know who to follow(not all from one party or one POV). We are the media now.I am amazed that people think X is a reliable source of news.
If that's true, then why has Republican leadership stymied him constantly? (Other than judgeships)100% false, plus whatever % you want to add to that.
Trump is definitely a little less Republican than many of our current Republicans. Don’t see how that is arguable. And that is why he’s been elected twice. I guess it all depends how you define Republican.100% false, plus whatever % you want to add to that.
Or.... he is holding pubs back from being a super majority. If we ran Jeb against Hillary we'd probably have zero conservative justices. Moderates do not like the Lyndsey and Mitch types. They make people vote for democrats. Right before the mid terms in '22 Lyndsey put forward an abortion bill. It had zero chance of passing but did drive women to the polls and made men just stay home. Trump got the voters to show up and the house and Senate consistently ran 5 points behind him. Instead of embracing the top of the ticket the Mitch types tried to pretend like they were responible for the red wave and they know what they are doing....Hindsight is always better than the original, right? You can nit pick now all you want, but if you don't believe he has been the most influential person in helping shape the courts, then whatever. You also would not see this state have a RED leadership to keep Andy in check.
