And when the stock market was rising and inflation was coming down, under Biden's administration, leaving Trump an improving economy and a decreasing unemployment rate, that had somehow nothing to do with Biden, but due to Trump, who was not in power at the time. Now that inflation is growing and projected to grow even faster now that Trump is in charge, the stock market is dropping and relations between us and other nations (especially our allies) are rapidly deteriorating, that is somehow Biden's fault, who is no longer in power, and it has nothing to do with Trump and his administration who now are in power. Does anyone fail to see how utterly stupid it is of Trump to make such claims?
Ceeboo and about 270 million fellow ‘mericans. Apparently.
How can his supporters still fail to see how utterly mendacious, corrupt, incompetent, abysmally ignorant and incompetent he really is? It is mind boggling! It is as stupid as insisting it is midnight while staring directly at the sun at high noon on a cloudless, midsummer day!
Because they are also utterly mendacious, and/or corrupt, and/or incompetent, and/or abysmally ignorant, and/or incompetent.

Where are the likes of ceeboo now? He’s gone strangely silent, along with all the other idiots that voted for the orange money grubber in chief.
Trump is keeping his promises. I'm not sure about Ceeboo, but I don't post because I see it as bad form to rub salt in the wounds of my opponents, not because I'm disappointed with Donald Trump. I've always known that a heavy price must eventually be paid for scamdemic lockdowns and out of control entitlement programs that politicians have kicked down the road for the last 20 years. That's not even mentioning the horrendous waste of money the Ukraine war has proved to be for the United States. We've got hard times ahead and I've always said that. But we've finally turned the ship back in the direction of what's best for legal American citizens and that's all a country guilty of electing Barach Obama and Joe Biden can ask.
And when the Confederates saw Jackson standing fearless like a stonewall, the army of Northern Virginia took courage and drove the federal army off their land.

Sure buddy -- I think it's more correct to say that you have come to accept the latest Fox News messaging of recent months that Trump is going to be erratic, not fix anything he has said he would fix, and so what are you going to say? This is not something you have "always known". This is a new turn in Fox messaging after winning the election on inflation and knowing Trump can't fix it. (even though his slogan was Trump can fix it)

Check my posting history. I've always said there will be a horrendous price to paid due to the scamdemic and the welfare state.

I'm sure your posting history going back a year (to be safe) primarily states that we were paying that price during the pandemic itself and directly under the Biden regime.

I would love to see an example of a statement made by you over a year old where you declared a horrible price would come at the hands of Donald Trump (or his equal), as a -- what would you call it -- a surgical procedure; a surgical procedure like, say, radiation therapy, that hurts more than the cancer itself, but necessary for the eventual cure. I'm absolutely positive you made so such predictions.

If you did make any predictions for post-2024 about paying a heavy price, I guarantee that it was in the context of more democrats winning elections and doing foolish things with money printing and DEI. Recall that you susbscribe(d) to the great replacement theory, where immigrants come in and among other things vote blue. You were hedging your bet massively so as not to get your hopes up expecting to lose. And thus, any "future prices" to be paid, in your posting history, were meant to be prices paid by Democrat policies.

This is quite funny though, Ajax. Imagine, next you'll try to convince me that all those stupid people who voted based on Trump signs like "Trump will fix it" and "Trump-low prices" didn't mean Trump was going to fix the economy during his 4 years, but shock them with massive radiation doses where they would suffer like crazy, and then sometime in the distant future, maybe after Trump is long dead, we'll have low prices. You're a hoot, Ajax.

I just said that even if Trump wins the election, that doesn't mean that inflation is going to stop nor that the economy is going to immediately return us to the situation we had in 2019. There should be a quote of Res Ipsa making fun of me for saying it if you want to mine it. Enough people finally comprehended the fact that when the government prints money this results in inflation. It's just sad that people didn't know this back in 2020 when we were forbidden to go to work and told that the government would just print us money to live on.

You were forbidden to work? How many years?

Who do you know who was given enough cash through EIPs to carry them along through even a fraction of a year without some other income source in place?

It just so happens that tariffs can likely do the same thing without having to use up all of that nice, fancy cotton linen and ink.
