The president keeps claiming Joe Biden left him a disaster and he is fixing it. In fact, Biden handed over a good economy that Trump made worse with his tariffs.

Back in April Pres Trump introduced "uncertainty" into the economy with his tariff proposals.

We are now seeing the results of that uncertainty.

The fat idiot is 100% to blame for this mess. Gas prices are 3 dollars? How much does a new car cost? Or a refrigerator? Or a t-bone?

---- that fat idiot.

Pres Trump's tariffs are a tax on working Americans.

Plain and simple.

Pres Trump's tariffs are a tax on working Americans.

Americans seem to know that (look at Pres Trump's approval ratings on the economy).

But the question that lingers out there like an unclaimed air-biscuit seems to be ...

Was Pres Trump's recent ranting White House prime time address a success or a failure?

Did Pres Trump assuage or stoke the concerns of working Americans?

Or is Pres Trump, apparently surrounded by the obsequious billionaires in his Cabinet, oblivious to the issues working Americans face in providing food for the family?

Or a college education.

Inflation the lowest it's ever been.

How many immigrants did we have? The more of them, the more prices are going to rise.

I'm not trying to embarrass you, leaving that task in your able hands.
But, seriously, you do know that's a lie, don't you?
And if you do, then you're a lying liar.
But if you don't, why do you insist on posting made up nonsense?

Well Doc, I think he can't see the forest for the trees. Those denials of truth are gonna bite him in the ass.

Lowest it's EVER BEEN? It's not even below the FED target. Is that what Fox News told you to believe?

I get insulted when people tell me lies, primarily because I find it insulting that they think I am stupid enough to believe their lies.

I guess if you are actually there stupid, then you do not feel insulted.

Pedo47 will still be blaming Biden for how he himself f-ed up the economy for decades to come.

Introspection is a skill he has never had.

This country is 98% immigrants and their descendants, including both of us.

You don't seem to understand how economics works.
Shrinking the work force shrinks the economy.
Do you really not know that?

Turnip's Biden excuse has worn thin. Ever since the tariffs and government layoffs, this is now the Turnip economy. His easy out is no longer, it belongs right where the voters are saying. Hiding the numbers on jobs, unemployment, and inflation, is not needed when Joe Public goes to pay bills or buy groceries. No amount of gaslighting changes what the public sees as expenses and where they are in relation to pre-covid.
