Well if you look at polls. More people want a Trump than Biden as president. So it’s not some fringe opinion.

How strange, I’ll never understand people still acting like Trump is a viable alternative to Biden as though he’s not entirely a traitorous piece of shit 🤷

Considering polls are often very wrong, I’d say it’s still a possibility that it is a fringe opinion. I took a poll of everyone I know IRL, and none of them want Trump back in office.

I will take a professional poll over your random opinion.

I hope you like crow, then, because I have a feeling you’ll have your fill in a few months.

Hope you are enjoying inflation and a wide open border

You all literally scuttled a bipartisan border bill two weeks ago for political points. Talking about wanting to eat your cake and have it too.

Did you read the border bill? Want to end the border nonsense? Just as under Trump if you want to file for Asylum you have to do it outside the border. You only gain entry after you are judged to have a legit asylum claim, which 99% do not. this is just another issue where a guy is hitting you over the head with a stick. You tell him to stop and he points at Trump and tells you it’s his fault. Then continues to hit you with the stick. And sadly too many are fine voting for people and policies that get them constantly fucked by those they vote for

Republicans literally turned away a once in a lifetime border bill that would have granted republicans everything they wanted and then some. Did YOU read the bill?

Inflation from Jan 2023 to Jan 2024 was 3.1% according to the CPI. The target is 3%

You are taking for granted the huge rise in inflation from when biden started his unnecessary spending to January 2023. Yes the RATE of inflation may have slowed down but that doesn’t address the huge increases in everything that we currently have. We can discuss “figures” and “graphs” all we want but anyone being honest knows that under the policies of Trump there was never any noticeable inflation. Yes there was inflation but not like now. I am still amazed how the biden regime was able to pass a Bill that they sold as “we have to have more wasteful spending to stop inflation”

I thought all that money came from the COVID relief bills in 2020. That was when stimulus checks and Paycheck Protection Loans were given out to everyone adding a whole bunch of extra liquidity that went to business interests.
Not all of this can be blamed on Biden, especially since his spending was into infrastructure and tech. Granted infrastructure can only get you so far, (see China) but it’s likely going to be better aimed than thousand dollar checks
This might be a case where we need to rethink fiscal policy across both sides of the isle. I don’t think either party is interested in such a measure. That leaves fiscal conservatives SOL when it comes to long term finances.

The problem is the inflation adds. When you add it all tougher it’s a rapid price increase in a short period of time. That’s here to stay.
