    Every time you go to the store and you see rising costs and hurting your bank account more, remember that the current president promised you lower prices his entire campaign.

    I can still picture him standing in front of all those boxes of groceries talking about how the prices have gone up, and saying he would drop prices day one. Now he and his puppet Press Secretary just blatantly lie about the truth. I can't even believe they have the audacity to claim grocery prices are lower. How stupid do they think people are? Oh, wait. Millions of red hats take his word as truth. :eek:

    The saddest part in these times is that it's so much easier to weed out truth from fiction with all the resources available compared to those days. Trump relies on his words to the people being believed above all else, and manipulates the weak minded into thinking and believing him when he repeatedly calls out all facts or reports contradictory to him are FAKE NEWS. He's using those Fascist and authoritarian tactics more than ever before. I don't know what more can be said to make those fools believing him realize they are being conned, used, and abused.

    Man **** this

    I told you that Craft beer was getting screwed by aluminum tariffs and it's about to get way worse

    ‪@dinfontay.com‬


    NEW: The Commerce Dept just announced that aluminum can lids and ends ARE aluminum derivatives and WILL be included in the Section 232 tariffs effective today. That tariff currently stands at 50%. Brewers Association warns this "could contribute to higher packaging costs" for US craft brewers.

    LOL, the recycling value of a beer can is about 2 cents. Now that same can is going to cost you 3 cents!

    I like how you guys make it a big deal before the last election. Now you trivialize it. Mock people for caring now. "get a job" "the poors are poor" etc etc etc

    But you see articles like this.

    'It’s depressing’: Waco neighbors speak out on rising grocery costs
    Waco residents are feeling the strain of rising grocery prices, with many adjusting their shopping habits and budgets to cope with the growing cost of everyday essentials.

    https://www.kxxv.com/news/local-new...o-neighbors-speak-out-on-rising-grocery-costs

    As I have said on here so so many times over the years. It's all a game. Whoever's side you are on if you are on one can do no wrong. The other side can do no right. Have absolutely no ability to look at data objectively. Check Google search to refute data. If it were on your side, you would support it and would in turn look for articles etc to support data. On and on all the while both sides are F'ing you.

    Resorting to supporting individuals like H Clinton and D Trump both recent examples of horribly corrupt people. I hope you're proud of yourselves and consider it time well spent.

    As a moderate I believe politics is a dirty game from the get go but when it comes to corruption and authoritarianism one side is playing fair while the other is cheating at every turn and rather rule, rig, and gaslight than represent.
