    Blames Biden for inflation.

    “Promises” to fix it.

    Deliberately makes it worse so he can get richer.

    Mouth-breathing fucktards still blame Biden and immigrants for inflation

    Boom, bust cycle…yeah, that’s on purpose. Trump’s just dumb enough and far enough in his brain degenerative disease to say it outloud.

    This alone should qualify him for impeachment, inflation is suffering for all but the most wealthy across the nation.

    Not that he will be impeached, congress is making so much money that they can’t help but “ride it out”. Easy wealth is hard for anyone to resist, could you? Seriously, we’re talking generational wealth for their entire family…

    …and that’s only what they report, there’s way more money in play than that. Even the good ones have to face “I could have enough money for me and mom dad and my kids and their kids, just a few more months and then I’ll argue for a minimum wage, maybe even a standalone bill! Just one more million…”

    All the leadership is long gone, the few decent reps are nothing more than tokens; their only purpose is idealization.

      Exactly, that is the point. Why would they impeach the guy that is making them and their handlers rich?

      He’s literally committed treason and nothing happened. Expecting the government to do anything about him is a waste of energy.

    So there really is no point where there is a mechanism to save the office of the president should mental illness and incapacity dominate the working of the Supreme leader’s mind? The King walks naked and we just keep saying his clothes look fabulous?

      If Amazon and Cybertruck even frown, he’s out on his ass.

      Don’t worry! They’re super happy.

      There is, but the people who wrote it didn’t foresee a world in which an entire established political party just blindly follows everything that the incapacitated person says.

      The framers of the constitution and the people who wrote its amendments were so sure that only people with integrity and good intentions would hold elected office that they didn’t give us a plan for removing shallow, greedy megalomaniacs.

        But they also didn’t consider themselves smart enough to have thought of everything which was the whole point of the amendment system. Which was promptly discarded as soon as it became more convenient to reinterpret the letter of the constitution to suit your needs while calling yourself an originalist.

    Seems like his bribes keep up with inflation.

    Inflation is generally more of a poor peoples problem, the rich don’t suffer like the rest of us. Lots of opportunities for the parasite class to steal even more wealth.

        Yes, but you have to look at the bigger picture: most ultra-wealthy people do not keep the bulk of their wealth in cash. Instead, their wealth is largely invested in assets such as shares, which can rise in value over time. When they need cash, they can often borrow against those assets rather than sell them

        They have people whose job it is to shift the wealth around according to the current situation. They are unlikely to suffer with the rest of us.

        Take Corona: the super rich got much wealthier while we and the economy went down.

    “No, I love it – the numbers were great,” Trump said. “You know what I really love? I love the inflation. You know why? Because as soon as this war is over, you know, I can say it now, something you didn’t know. You know, we’ve been taking out millions of barrels of oil, nobody knows it. You know who doesn’t know about it? Iran, until right now we took out the other night 22 ships late at night with no lights because they don’t have any radar because we blasted the crap out of it. We took out, that’s why oil is $85 a barrel.”

    I know everything that comes out of his mouth is word salad, but I think I had a stroke just reading that.

      Didn’t. Past tense.

      If by some amazing level of incompetence they didn’t know about their oil being plundered, they absolutely do now that he’s opened his mouth about it.
