So in 4 years of Bidens presidency home cost went up 80%. And Dems think that their middle class base who is impacted by this the most will come out and vote for them again.
I know inflation is 100% the Democrats and Joe Biden’s fault so I’m voting Republican up and down the ballot. Maybe a full blown red wave and giving Republicans complete control of the government will teach Democrats the lesson and teach them to keep inflation under control.
Most of us know that this is the impact of lowering interest rates to fucking zero for so long would have; there would come a time for market correction for one reason or another (we got a goddamn pandemic, yay) and now that it had to be done we got a nice hyperinflation bubble.
We screamed about this for four fucking years of Trump, these moves are shortsighted, these moves will destroy us later down the line; same with the expiring tax cuts, same with the immigration policies and “Muslim bans”, same with the moving the embassy to Jerusalem.
But no, we’re just “butthurt libs who can’t see how GREAT we are”
MAGA just HAD to huff their own farts so goddamn hard and now look they’ve fucking blown it. Biden sucks for a lot of reasons but let’s not go blaming him for the blowback from four years of economic and foreign policy naïveté.
Your memory might be too short but I was fuckin there. Told you so.
Do you remember trump pressuring the fed (already not usually done) to keep interest rates close to 0 BEFORE covid hit?
And then we hit covid, when it actually would’ve been nice to be able to lower interest to spark the economy and wouldn’t you know, it was already too low.
If the economy struggles during a Democrat’s presidency, you should probably check the policies the Republican before them pushed through before jumping to blame them.
These types of policies can take years for the full impact to be felt.
Everything takes a decade to actually take effect and accomplish anything notable.
On an unrelated note, political control swings wildly on a pendulum between two parties, one of which dismantles anything good ever and the other of which stands by and lets them do it while ensuring that bad things continue unobstructed so they can hurt more people.
This is a good and functional system, and should not be immediately burned to the ground. I am very smart.
What about the genocide going on right now in Isreal, is that the result of a Republican policy too? Did Trump force Biden to continue to provide bombs and bullets that are being used to slaughter thousands upon thousands of innocent Paleistinians?
Also I find it super interesting that Republicans have so much power and Democrats don’t. I find it super neat that Republics have power during their terms, but they also apparently have equal if not greater power when the Dems have a term too. Fascinating stuff this “democracy”
Exactly, we need to elect Republicans to every office. There’s no difference between Republicans and Democrats so if we consistently elect far right Republicans then the Democrats will have to start running true liberal candidates if they want to compete.
If you have a criticism of the Democrats you should probably do a bunch of gymnastics to absolve them of any duty to help the public and then vote for them blindly forever.

Interesting strategy. Let’s see how it plays out

Great having two neolib parties, isn’t it?
That’s what Democracy is, having 2 dudes who are different only in the most inconsequential ways imaginable to choose from.
