    You're right, the world is much less safe now.

    It's okay to stop hyperventilating.

    I'm disappointed in that response from you. We disagree more and more now but you would at least put something into your responses. I guess it's the easier option. Kek...

    The feeling is mutual. Your post is equating international ambitions to globalism. And when I point out it's wrong and cite reasons why, you ignore 4 years of precedent and immediately jump to the worst-case scenario. It's tiresome.

    When a huge mantra of your movement is "fighting the globalists" and action that is in fact the opposite of that is more than just a "worse case scenario". I wasn't here screaming "fight the globalists!" so I don't really care what globalist things Biden or the Dems did. This is more about exercise of pointing out hypocrisy. Something I feel will come up frequently he next four years.

    POTUS has some control over inflation, but not enough to outweigh the supply/demand problem being caused by the bird flu. 

    You must have missed how this game works the last four years, and the responses from the folks on your team now. Covid and international supply chain crisis be damned, prices were all Biden's fault. Now, if we're being fair, it's Trump's turn. 

    You're saying there's more nuance to it? No way. Can't happen. Rules have already been established

    Biden's actions specifically worsened inflation to its peak when he decided to cut the world's leading producer of fertilizers out of the Western economy. Trump kickstarted the supply chain issues with the COVID shutdowns and it's a huge part of why he lost in 2020. The egg prices now are Trump's responsibility, but attributing that inflation to tariffs that were in effect for less than 12 hours sure looks silly when the bird flu is tearing through the chicken population.

    Fyi, I know Trump hasn't caused the egg prices to go up. Again, it's pointing out hypocrisy. 

    Of course, for all of his comments during the campaign, you could argue it's worth criticizing any inaction he takes or any action he takes that results in increasing prices. 

    But right, obviously Trump hasn't single handedly caused egg prices to increase in just two weeks in office.

    It's another method of pointing out the hypocrisy shown by this administration and it's loyal followers. The "I did that!" sticker. Just playing the game by the rules established.

    I would argue Biden did in fact, "do that" to gas prices with his foreign and domestic policy. On the foreign policy side, he cut off Russian oil from the western economy and funded a war that shut down the fastest shipping lane for oil from the Persian Gulf to Europe and the Eastern Seaboard of the US, and (allegedly) ordered the destruction of the NordStream 2 pipeline. On the domestic policy side, he stopped construction of the Keystone pipeline and stopped new contracts for drilling in the Gulf of Mexico America. Having both of those would have been helpful to mitigate the drop in supply caused by his foreign policy decisions. So instead, he emptied our strategic petroleum reserve to keep gas prices down. His actions are indefensible, and a direct correlation can be drawn to the inflation during his term.

    But you’re not being fair.

    As you yourself made note of it, Trump has been in office only 2 weeks, yet you blather about hypocrisy and such as if he deserves the same criticism as Biden at this early stage of the game.

    I know you’ve been chomping at the bit to commence bashing Trump. But you gotta give it a couple months. Show some restraint.

  • That are actively rooting against the USA…

    terribly misguided people …

    Ok. Back to the original topic then

    Inflation had spiked  since Trump was sworn in and it’s only going to go up, due to his policies. You were sold a bill of goods by a career crook and con artist and now it’s coming back at you. But, you will defend ANYTHING he does. Just like the  cult you belong to

    It went to 3 percent in January.  Trump took over on January 20.  It's on your old demented Joe.

  • wow. four years and these lefties refused to talk about inflation.

    Now, after a bit over three weeks of US WINNING AND SAVING OUR COUNTRY,

    they discover inflation.

    just....lol.
