COVID caused inflation - not Biden

Well, you just made another argument for blaming Trump. People don't get vaxxed because of Trump - not because of Biden. Never made sense to me - the vaccine could have been a massive win for Trump. But he likes to appeal to the conspiracy folks too much to truly promote and encourage it.

Paradox V. The 'vaccine' isn't, it turns out. You can't blame Trump for Biden's economic disaster. You can't blame Trump for DEMOCRATS shutting down the economy.
 
The Biden admin exacerbated the problem by pumping money into the economy as COVID was winding down. They also waited too long to take action to mitigate inflation, which necessitated the "overreaction".

So you're saying there were more deaths under Trump than Biden? OK...

And we see that in the timing. Inflation STARTED under Trump. But partisan right-wing hacks keep repeating that it was "Biden's policies" that started it.

It's economics 101. Economists were saying fairly consistently throughout 2020 (and even in 2019) that inflation would be inevitable after some of the supply chain issues & surging demand we had due to the pandemic.

Oh - and that is also why it was a GLOBAL issue. Think about that one too, partisan right-wing hacks. I know you love to blame Biden for everything, but no President could have stopped this. And if you want to blame a President, blame the guy it started under.

Spot on. It started after trump's tax on American consumers of Chinese appliances. It festered from there when Xi taught trump a little lesson about trade wars.

Then when the trump virus shut down China, we learned the folly of making billions in profits by offshoring all manufacturing.

What Qpublicans want us to believe is that ending the Keystone XL (that trump couldn't get done in 4 years) is the reason for all inflation because it stems from the price of fuel.

They ignore that the fuel shortage gets traced directly back to Wall St.

Corporate profits are crazy high, odd how inflation seems to be so good for them...

Look at the airlines. Their profits are way up, as ticket prices skyrocket and flights are cut due to labor shortage.

It mirrors the oil industry. Pay dividends and hike share price, while the consumer gets screwed.

Wall St. always wins.

DALLAS (AP) — The three biggest U.S. airlines enjoyed a boffo summer, reaping a combined profit of more than $2 billion as Americans jammed on to planes despite fares that were sharply higher than a year ago.
What pandemic?
American Airlines said Thursday that it earned $483 million on record-breaking revenue that more than offset higher fuel costs in the third quarter. American predicted that profit will continue to exceed Wall Street expectations during the holiday-packed remainder of 2022.

Early deaths were in NY/Cal., as they are the busiest airports. Once trump couldn't hide Covid anymore, he tried every avenue to politicize it for his gain.

He went as far as to claim that the vaccines were purposely being held up until after the election.

Then, he did his best to encourage people not to get vaccinated.

Later deaths were all in Red states that followed the trump political playbook.

The VAST majority are Republicans. Mainly Trumptards. This is a fact that is not in dispute by anyone.

I have that idiot on ignore.

trump 'listened to the Chinese'?

He pulled dozens of American scientists out of China in his first days in office.

Obama envy, as it were.

Obama swore that we would do our best to avoid another massive outbreak across the world.

trump swore that he would do his best to erase Obama from history.


And now he has the trump virus as his legacy.

POTUS has nothing to do with Fed policy...unless you are trump.

I'm thrilled to be earning decent money on my cash again, but this inflation has little to do with any Fed policy. There is a gross shortage of many raw materials across the world.


Will we learn from it?
