I'm still trying to find the countries that didn't have sky high inflation during this period, since if I'm to believe this board it only happened because of Biden. I should be able to find another developed country out there that didn't deal with massive inflation starting in 2021, yet somehow I can't.

I actually agree with this. Both sides consistently do this when the guy they voted for loses.

In this scenario, the overall economic sentiment to people has been negative since the middle of 2021. That’s all because of inflation and housing affordability. That issue has persisted and real wage growth was down for the majority of that time.

The market correction is more like “see, told you it was a matter of time before the market bubble popped.”

Absolutely on the bold, but I don't see any way any President could have prevented either of those things from happening. The fact that every single other developed country on earth had the exact same level of spike in inflation tells me it didn't happen just because of Biden policy choices, that it would have happened just the same if Trump was President.

As for housing you already had a supply shortage, then dropped rates to all time lows during the beginning of the pandemic making it the cheapest time ever to borrow money. With already low supply and super cheap money available prices stupid skyrocketed, and then when rates go up with the sky high prices they become impossible to afford. Again I don't see what any president including Trump was going to do to combat that.

Biden did not even try to help, he only fanned the flames - Inflation reduction Act my arse.... that was a boondoggle to throw more money away.

You don't know what Trump might have done differently, but it would likely have started with opening up our economy a lot sooner than idiot-puppet-boy did (or was allowed to by his handlers) and I am pretty sure infusing 2 Billion into the system would not been part of his plan either.

South Korea stayed open, their inflation rate went from sub 1% CPI in 2020 to 5.1% in 2022.

Sweden stayed open and didn't lock down, their inflation rate went from sub 1% CPI in 2020 to 8.4% in 2022.

Again, point to me somewhere where a country didn't have a massive spike in inflation in 2022. I've looked, it don't exist.

well, the root of all of the inflation was in 2 places;

1. Spending

2. FUel prices

Because of this flaming administrations dumb*** policies on energy, EVERYTHING costs more for ALL countries.

Which is why it will be so easy to fix. Fix the energy policies, stop spending on stupid sh*t, and its fixed going forward.

I blame liberal policies in big blue states/cities which throttled supply and killed small businesses for years. This made corporations more powerful and they were able to monopolize the market much quicker, even though it was slowly moving that way prior to COVID.

Except try to basically rescind it...which was impossible since it was such a huge gift and they wanted to stick it to trump for lying to them about Iran...and then release a large portion of the SPR. But you do you, Puddin'.

It doesn't take much thought if you're honest. You learn in any entry level economics course that if you remove a huge portion of a product from the global market place by one of the biggest suppliers that prices will go up, way up.

To be frank - Biden was/is a pu$$y and Iran was not going to do anything for him because they have no respect for or fear of him.

Trump did not put a deal in place the he was not prepared to deal with at the end. You can continue to place 100% of the blame on the MOB, but Biden did not do anything except weaken our SPR which dropped gas a couple cents for a couple days (maybe). But you know, if any real life event that really needed SPR access actually happens now, we are not even close to the position of strength we were 4 years ago.

I stay far away from my professional lane on this board for a reason, and you do not know what that is (what or why). Economically speaking, I have plenty of background to understand all of this. I may over simplify what I post here, but do not mistake that for a lack of understanding of it.


If you want to keep pounding on "who inherits what", Trump is (likely) about to inherit millions and millions (and millions) of illegal immigrants who are wreaking havoc in our cities and towns around the country. Mayorkas should be in front of a firing squad for what he allowed to happen (under orders from his masters including the Border Czar).


Unlike Mr. "oh gosh, there is nothing I can do about this oil deal I inherited", DJT is going to do everything in his power to try to fix what he inherited at the Border among the other F-Ups this administration is leaving him with.

You are STILL completely ignorant of the scope and overall purpose of the SPR. It has a mandated low end that CANNOT be passed. And it was used exactly for what its stated purpose is...when there are supply disruptions. It's NEVER been for wars, etc. like you and your ilk keep claiming.

And your guy did NOTHING which poured gas on a fire..... OWN IT.

Except try to basically rescind it...which was impossible since it was such a huge gift and they wanted to stick it to trump for lying to them about Iran...and then release a large portion of the SPR. But you do you, Puddin'.

It doesn't take much thought if you're honest. You learn in any entry level economics course that if you remove a huge portion of a product from the global market place by one of the biggest suppliers that prices will go up, way up.

To be frank - Biden was/is a pu$$y and Iran was not going to do anything for him because they have no respect for or fear of him.

Trump did not put a deal in place the he was not prepared to deal with at the end. You can continue to place 100% of the blame on the MOB, but Biden did not do anything except weaken our SPR which dropped gas a couple cents for a couple days (maybe). But you know, if any real life event that really needed SPR access actually happens now, we are not even close to the position of strength we were 4 years ago.

I stay far away from my professional lane on this board for a reason, and you do not know what that is (what or why). Economically speaking, I have plenty of background to understand all of this. I may over simplify what I post here, but do not mistake that for a lack of understanding of it.


If you want to keep pounding on "who inherits what", Trump is (likely) about to inherit millions and millions (and millions) of illegal immigrants who are wreaking havoc in our cities and towns around the country. Mayorkas should be in front of a firing squad for what he allowed to happen (under orders from his masters including the Border Czar).


Unlike Mr. "oh gosh, there is nothing I can do about this oil deal I inherited", DJT is going to do everything in his power to try to fix what he inherited at the Border among the other F-Ups this administration is leaving him with.



Go vote for Kamala, then sleep tight with your decision. I do recommend buying some new pillows to hug tightly for the next 4 years while you quake in fear of the hurt feels....

You are STILL completely ignorant of the scope and overall purpose of the SPR. It has a mandated low end that CANNOT be passed. And it was used exactly for what its stated purpose is...when there are supply disruptions. It's NEVER been for wars, etc. like you and your ilk keep claiming.

Just hug your pillow fat boy.....
