Yea, Trump could have made a bigger issue of inflation. But recall the all the CPI revision, the employment revision releases, even reworked figures on Trump vs Biden deficits that were media shouted in the days leading up to the debate. They still have the bullhorn and the agencies. They were gunning for it.

And I think most of the country believes with Liz Pocahontas that inflation is all caused by greedy corporations raising prices and enslaving them. And it's not just groceries, those prices will fluctuate a bit, the insanity is in all the prices that are up for good.
What's really funny is those little stickers next to the gas pumps, a picture of smilin Joe pointing a finger, and saying "I did this"
I only mention groceries because that’s mainly what people see and it’s mainly what I hear people talk about. Ivrapplestock I am voting for Trump 100%. I bought my first business truck in 1986, with a plow on it ($2000) it was 18,600. Today that same truck with the same plow ($8000) is now 78,000, which I know I will never be able to afford again. So I do physically know it’s not just groceries it’s everything you buy, it’s devalued every dollar you have, it’s devalued every dollar you earn and spend. The other thing it can do is as peoples wages increase, many times your tax bracket changes so now you have to pay higher taxes. Inflation affects every financial aspect of everyone’s life.
I hadn’t heard that. I’m also extremely worried about Biden’s continued escalation of the Ukraine war and his continued increasing weapons like US missiles that have killed Russian civilians. What happens if Putin has enough with Russian civilian deaths and nukes Kyiv? It’s another subject the media doesn’t mention which is shocking. Maybe it happens at 3 in the morning when Joe can’t be woken. Things certainly are out of control!!
It's important to remember that the Russian government has a "no first use" policy. Also many of them consider Kiev to be a Russian city with history roots going back 1200 years. If they did that the Russian public would be outraged.
Great point Stewart, I’m sure you are 100% correct. I’m very frustrated that every move we make is to escalate the war. Eventually the war will end, I’m sure through a negotiation. Why is there never talk of ending this war, I know that’s a rhetorical question, it’s money and to hell with all of the generations of young Ukrainian and Russian soldiers dying. On top of that the country, Ukraine is destroyed. It will take a century to fix what has been done there, for what, what interests does America have for the Donbas? Most Americans I will include myself don’t even know what that region of the Ukraine is… every time they talk of more weapons and how Ukraine is winning I think they are lying to me and more boys will be killed and families displaced for what, money.
James--another piece of the inflation/crumbling economy I didn't realize was so extensive. I hear of the business closures, but I don't do the mental tally of the extent:
As to pickup prices, that's really nuts too. About midway thru Brandon illegally dropping various student loan repayments, there was a short talk of cancelling the debt of folk's first pickup if used for their starting a business. That went nowhere fast.

It's getting out of control, China now conducting military drills near Ukrainian border.

I think I heard her say that the purpose of the Ukraine war is to bankrupt America.
