    Don’t expect any of them to be able to draw the dots to what PEDOnald has done to cause this.

    Meanwhile, none of these mouthbreathers could tell me how Biden was supposedly causing inflation. They kept talking like he had some big dial he was turning up. Also, they could not tell me in any meaningful way how Biden’s economy was so “terrible” or what he was doing wrong, specifically. They’d blather about “Biden’s policies” or about “Biden’s economics” but had exactly zero specific.

    It was all vibey bullshit.

        They’re fine with suffering, as long as someone they don’t like suffers more

          I remember talking to someone right after 2024 election, who was saying the economy was terrible (“because Biden”, lol), etc.

          I asked him how it was terrible for him. He was still working, as was I. I said I’ve been doing relatively okay, and things seemed to be back on the right track, etc.

          He says something along the lines of “well, maybe people like you shouldn’t be doing well”. Keep in mind this is an in-law. Implying that I should be doing worse. His kids play with my kids.

          What in the holy fuck is wrong with these people?

          BTW, later on in early 2025 in an extension of this conversation, he thought Elon’s DOGE would be “good” because it might “shake things up” in government. Well, lots of things can “shake things up” when it comes to a complicated system. Just randomly changing things tends to destroy them, not make them better.

          But this guy is also barely literate and cannot really do basic math, either, so…shrug?

        Yeah, and ignore all the other factors and what other countries were going through, just like us, after an historic pandemic. They’ll just focus on “Biden”.
