    Having to hear liberals tell me for the rest of my life that Biden really was a great President, the best America has had since FDR, it's just that Congress was deadlocked, blame Trump/Republicans; then foreign policy-wise Netanyahu, President Xi, and Putin had him by the balls nothing to do there; his economy was actually great, inflation was right where it should be; and of course he single-handedly ended the War in Afghanistan (maybe the only good thing Biden's done in his entire life, and ironically Trump kicked it off), passed some infrastructure bill, and did a photo op on a UAW picket line (after he made sure that the rail workers couldn't get sick days) is something I'm dreading.

    I guess choosing broadly labor-friendly NLRB picks is something, they did a few good things, but it looks like that's not going to amount to much compared to the colossal evil and mismanagement of the Biden admin. And I guess in a sense doing a photo op with the UAW might be the most pro-labor move any President has done since FDR but was also a totally meaningless and baldfaced attempt at scoring an easy win without doing anything.

          I dont care enough to piece out the timelines, but in general, my life was in a better place during the Trump years. Part of that is because of shit I did myself, part of that was the economy.

          It's still just wild to say.

            I did not know this but makes sense: according to my partner, when unemployment is down, inflation goes up and when unemployment is up, inflation goes down. Makes sense if there is less money circulating, right? So that may be part of why shit had skyrocketed under Biden, unemployment was super duper low I guess. Plus all of the price fixing and shit but that likely would've happened regardless. I haven't fact checked the unemployment numbers tho

              The rules of thumb to do with inflation don't have much to do with what happened in the las few years. Inflation skyrocketed under Biden because COVID (and to a lesser extent, the Russia-Ukraine war) gave retailers an excuse to hike prices. Something like half of inflation from 2020-2022 was just corporations fleecing the common person because they knew people would buy it.

                This is definitely the hugest contributing factor which is why I mentioned price fixing as well. Tons of different factors but I'm sure all big business owners were rubbing their hands together in delight at the thought of taking advantage of the pandemic

          TBF Biden basically did what Trump would have done about COVID, maybe worse because there was no pushback from lib institutions.

    This is actually very accurate. Obviously Genocide Joe has no issue with any of the genocide or mass murders he carried out. The most important thing to him is that people think he was cool. Get in the coffin, Joe.

    You mean giving Republicans credit for the infrastructure bill when they largely opposed it was a bad idea? shocked-pikachu
