What benefit does any of these cuts provide to any American?

They justify the Trump tax cuts for the 1%

Remember when Republicans used to claim to be "fiscally conservative?" Before they doubled the budget and debt during GOP unitary control under Shrub?

WTG, "stable genius."

Ruining America's image and American's retirement accounts: Winning!

I agree. But it's still fair game.

Pointing it out wasn't blaming Biden. He didn't even mention Biden.

I was simply pointing out (without bringing Biden into it) that THIS market plunge is a self-inflicted wound by the dotard.

... Usually it's overstated.

Not this time. This is all Trump.

The 2022 market drop was still because of COVID.

In 2022, after much pent up demand, Americans began to spend a lot of money and inflation hit.

The Fed hinted they would be raising the prime rate (and continuedd to). Markets reacted immediately.

You sure know Jack S*** about epidemiology or how rapidly infectious diseases spread among tightly grouped animals or humans.

Par for the course for you.

President Donald Trump, who promised to cut the cost of groceries on his first day in office, now seems to have a much different take on high prices ...

He was going to "end inflation on Day 1." Remember? Sadly for MAGAts, they can't scrub the internet of Trump's idiotic proclamations.

And recall how he used to measure his success on how well the stock market is doing?

There must be loads of Trump voters watching their 401k going kerplunk. Some, like those here, are furiously searching for a reason to blame DEMS. Which they won't find.

Wait'll the next pandemic hits America. COVID might have been better managed and contained had Trump not disbanded the Pandemic Response unit.

Just because "Obama."

BTW, one of the things USAID has done is ameliorate outbreaks in foreign countries before they get out of control.

And wait'll the bird flu morphs into an epidemic or pandemic here.

"Soft power" i.e. food, medical care, stopping pandemics, etc etc has accomplished more for America than any war we've fought since WWII.

For instance, Trump nixed aid to Central America. Aid that went to tamping down gangs, helping impoverished farmers survive in a drought, and so much more. Wonder why all those Central Americans suddenly began walking the Darian Gap to get here?

Na, you don't think very much or educate yourself.

Border czar Tom Homan and Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem have blamed lower-than-expected ICE arrest numbers on recent leaks revealing the cities where it planned to conduct operations.

All they need to do is swing by construction sites and they'll be shooting fish in a barrel.

"Starve The Beast" in action!

From the libertarian Cato Institute:

LIMITING GOVERNMENT: THE FAILURE OF "STARVE THE BEAST "

Europeans aren't buying Teslas. Half of America won't buy a Tesla.

WTG, both of these self-professed "very smart people."

When will Tesla stockholders boot that wannabe NAZI out? TSLA has lost half its value since the election.

Trump voters are about to find out how FAFO hurts their lives.

Didn't he promise to "stop inflation on Day 1?" And so many more empty promises ...

Wasn't he always measuring the success of his presidency by the stock market? How's that going? Um, not well.

Face it: he's a know-nothing dotard who doesn't give a crap about anyone but himself.

What's so unfair about pointing out a significant market drop just 3 years ago?

That market drop was caused by COVID. This one is caused by the actions of a man who doesn't care about anyone but himself.
