Trump had ZERO choice because of Covid

 

Sorry his spending is CCP/DNC forced

 

You know, that Insurrection in March of 2020 when America was conquered by the flu. 

 

Covid killed 6.3M in 2 years.  The flu kills 350,000-600,000 per year.  But yeah, the flu...

No dispute America has fallen.

 

You take umbrage with "the flu" tho.

 

Fascinating 

 

No, it's pointless to argue when people make pointless, idiotic statements.  Trump was pushing the payments as much as anyone.  And it's pointless to argue with people who just put out crap conspiracy theories with no evidence to back them up.

 

When it's "your" guy, it doesn't matter what he does.  Only when it's the "other" guy is the only time you have an issue.

I agree that both sides suck.  That's my point.  But everyone jumps on one side and just blames the other side when they both do the exact same thing.

 

People call it a plandemic yet somehow never blame the people in charge at that point.  Who deserves the blame if it was planned?  US? China? Who? I'd love to know considering it killed both my parents.  

 

Either way, how did the $3.1T not contribute but the $1.9T is solely to blame?

 

It was quite clearly a Sino-Russian Psy Op designed to turn the Western Leftist world against itself and shift the world order.

 

They knew what we would get ourselves into if given the chance.

Those are gov't numbers which you need to stop trusting, and they are nowhere near Apples/Apples.

Ok, so what numbers are people trusting in order say "it's just the flu" then?  It's insanity.  People claim one number is off, but would rather trust Joe Schmoe on Youtube or Twitter.

What are you people debating? I don’t think anyone disputes that the world experienced a pandemic. The debate is over the way the various governments reacted to it. Clearly the last couple of funding bills were completely unnecessary. Just like pandemic, there’s no sane debate out that.

Democrats Seethe After Bernie Sanders Tells the 'Truth' About the 'Inflation Reduction Act'

 

ac22b414-d154-466a-b489-e2ffdcd1edb3-450

 

 

On Saturday, a “vote-a-rama” took place and the “Inflation Reduction Act” cleared its first hurdle, but not before socialist Sen. Bernie Sanders dropped some “truth” about the bill.

 

 

 

Sanders is right. As reported, economists are warning the act would actually increase inflation, and at the very least, it will have no relevant impact.

 

That’s not surprising. We are talking about a bill that will spend tons of money immediately on green boondoggles while insisting it will raise revenue via tax increases and IRS enforcement over a longer period of time.

Larry Summers Says Inflation Has Him ‘More Worried’ Following July Jobs Report.

 

 

 

 

Summers said:

 

“Yes, wages did go up half a percent last month. But that’s about a 6% annual rate, and inflation has run at about 9% over the last year. I think our core problem, which is that we have an unsustainably overheated economy that’s leading to high inflation, which is cutting people’s paychecks, that, unfortunately, has not been addressed by the news in this report …

Inflation hits Americans' grocery bills as food prices accelerate


Food prices surged 13.1% in July, highest since 1979

 

 

Although the consumer price index, which measures a basket of everyday goods including food, rent and gasoline, came in cooler than expected at 8.5% in July, food prices accelerated further, the Labor Department reported on Wednesday. The food at home category, which tracks the cost of groceries, surged 13.1% over the last year, the most significant increase since March 1979. On a monthly basis, prices jumped 1.4%.

 

"Consumers are getting a break at the gas pump, but not at the grocery store," said Greg McBride, chief financial analyst at Bankrate.com. "Food prices, and especially costs for food at home, continue to soar, rising at the fastest pace in more than 43 years."

 

Americans are paying more at the grocery store for a number of items that have climbed considerably in price over the past year. That includes staples like eggs (38%), chicken (16.6%), milk (15.6%), potatoes (13.3%), rice (12.7%) and fresh fruits and vegetables (8.2%).
