the inflation floodgate was open when Tru ?). Combined that is 12.37% inflation in the last two years. It's nice that things haven't gotten worse as fast as they were before, but that is not a super high bar.[/QUOTE] further corroboration that you don’t understand, but I don’t need the help
further corroboration that you don’t understand, but I don’t need the help You do understand that the US had experienced inflation before 1929, no?
you have already corroborated my assertion that you don’t understand, you don’t have to do it again. this further corroborates the fact that you have no idea what you're talking about, with your post #4112
https://www.wsj.com/articles/joe-bi...ment-deal-a5574e2c?mod=hp_opin_pos_2#cxrecs_s Joe From Scranton Loses His Authenticity The kind, folksy everyman he ran as in 2020 wouldn’t shun his granddaughter. By Karl Rove July 12, 2023 at 6:14 pm ET A presidential candidate’s most important asset is his authenticity. So Democrats should be concerned that President Biden is so effectively undermining any sense that the return to decency he pitched in 2020 was genuine. Yes, presidential elections often turn on big issues and sharp ideological differences, on notable gaffes and tireless campaigning. But in most cases, a key element of victory is how apparently earnest a candidate is in making a case that resonates with the electorate. During the 1980 campaign, voters grew to trust in Ronald Reagan as a great communicator who would do what he said he would. It was authenticity that got his predecessor elected, too. In 1976, distrustful of politicians and politics after Watergate, many Americans wanted morality returned to the Oval Office and narrowly elected Jimmy Carter, a born-again Christian. As the nation’s economy sputtered in 1992, voters sought a candidate with empathy. Many believed Bill Clinton felt their pain. And in 2000 George W. Bushcame across as genuine and likable—someone you’d like to share a beer with (non-alcoholic in his case)—while Al Gore did not. Even as our country has become more polarized, authenticity has remained the decisive variable in tight presidential elections. In 2016 swing voters wanted a disrupter who would throw a brick through Washington’s plate glass window, so they helped elect Donald Trump, who genuinely seemed disruptive. In 2020, after four years of chaos, swing voters wanted someone who would “restore the soul of America.” Democrats sold what seemed an authentic story: Joe Biden of Scranton, Pa.—the “everyman” politician and personal friend of Amtrak conductors—would rid the White House of crazy, restore normality to Washington and through decency and collegiality make government work again. But Mr. Biden is now undermining the chance that voters will buy that this is the real Joe in 2024. The most obvious recent example is the president’s refusal to acknowledge his seventh grandchild, the result of his son Hunter Biden’s liaison in 2018 with a former stripper. Hunter says he doesn’t remember linking up with the child’s mother and refused to acknowledge he was the father or provide child support until a court-ordered test established his paternity. In late June, Hunter came to an agreement with the girl’s mother to provide monthly child support and some of his paintings. In return the mother agreed not to use Biden as his daughter’s last name. If President Biden had acted with graciousness and opened his heart to his now four-year-old grandchild, he would have done himself much good. Imagine if he had welcomed her into the family, introduced her to her cousins and treated her as a wonderful addition to the Biden line. Instead, he joined his son in rejecting her. It’s ugly, and there’s been serious blowback. When a Democratic president loses New York Times columnist Maureen Dowd over a question of basic decency, you know he’s in trouble. It didn’t help matters that, the day after Hunter got a plea deal on federal income tax and gun charges, the president had his son attend the White House state dinner for Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi. Hunter’s grinning mug was splashed all over the coverage, reminding voters how easy he got off from his drug-and-alcohol addled years of squeezing cash out of foreign bad actors by trading on his father’s name and position. It would have been nice if Hunter had the decency to stay out-of-sight and out-of-mind, but his father at least should’ve had the common sense to nix what was a perfectly awful idea. No one is asking the president to abandon his son like he has his granddaughter, but he doesn’t need to highlight Hunter at a state dinner, either. If Hunter wants to help his father’s re-election, he should join an agricultural commune in Paraguay for the next 17 months. But that still wouldn’t end the damage to the president’s image. In early July, voters learned from Axios that behind closed doors Mr. Biden is full of fury and foul-mouthed outbursts, a man who “has such a quick-trigger temper that some aides try to avoid meeting alone with him.” This makes a mockery of his promise the first day of his presidency to fire “on the spot” any employee who treated fellow staffers disrespectfully. These three nuggets might not by themselves cost Mr. Biden the 2024 election. But he’s a weak, old and unpopular incumbent. Diminishing what voters accepted as his authentic attributes—decency and likability—is bound to hurt. In what’s shaping up to be another close contest, that could be more decisive than Democrats might think. Mr. Rove helped organize the political-action committee American Crossroads and is author of “The Triumph of William McKinley” (Simon & Schuster, 2015).
I think you might actually be mentally challenged. When someone replies to a tweet that mentions two years, and there was more inflation in the first than the second, in context the first year is obviously what I am referring to as the original inflation, the second is the subsequent inflation. You think these are big gotchas, but they aren't, you are just a moron. Just like you couldn't understand why someone would group blacks with Hispanics and whites with Asians when discussing crime rates.
The title of this thread should read “ Biden is a joke, voter’s remorse “. That’s not the only thing that you don’t get man. Lol
Dude you created a new account cuz you couldn't pay back your gambling debt. You trying tell us you really paying child support on time? bum
You are right. In August 2019Most economists were predicting an economic downturn within 3 years if Trump's tariffs were allowed to stay in effect. Lucky for him COVID happened and supply chains got screwed up by that instead of his idiotic policies.
Oh Trump is a hypocrite for many things such as that he said he would never settle lawsuits or play golf while he was president. What I’m point out though is the party of “family values” and who said that “character matters” supported the man and even when though all sorts of rationalizations to support him. Now are clutching their pearls over Biden getting angry at his staff and not acknowledging a granddaughter. Was there Pearl clutching by y’all over Trump’s treatment of his niece? also for someone who claims he doesn’t support Trump and doesn’t like him you’re yet again defending him.
Unable to pay your gambling debts. At least you stopped whoring out your wife's nationality on here. Baby steps I guess.
Border crossings are at a 3 year low Inflation is at a 3 year low Unemployment is at near record low Stock market is near all time highs Manufacturing is roaring back at the fastest pace since 1930s Violent crime is double digits across the nation. This is what winning looks like to MAGA. Once fed lowers rates and housing market picks its game over @Salvy
If supply chain issues caused the inflation, and the supply chain issues have eased greatly, then why didn't prices go down? Inflation is still happening, just at a lower rate than before. If a widget normally costs $1, but it is selling for $1.09 because of a supply chain disruption, then the supply chain disruption resolves, it shouldn't cost $1.12. That says it wasn't the supply chain disruption that caused the price increase. If a widget costs $1, then the government sends everyone earning less than $125,000 thousands of dollars, then it costs $1.09 and then the government increases spending and it goes up to $1.12, that makes perfect sense. This was not a transitory issue that was resolved, this was a permanent increase in the supply of money relative to goods.
