12 Of 16 years, America has been run by Obama-influenced or controlled Democratic governments. So who are they blaming for USAs ills?

[sealybobo]

What “ills” we suffer from are due to Covid and that is NOT on Obama. That’s on Trump

Bill Maher said it best

The country’s current “inflationary spiral” can also be traced back to COVID-19, Maher said, describing the trillions of dollars the government issued throughout the pandemic. This, he noted, should not be pinned on President Joe Biden, but his predecessor, former President Donald Trump.

“We’re going to bring back Trump?” he asked. “The guy who ignored COVID like it was the dinner check? Talk about not learning anything.”

The plan by the private group, Heritage Foundation? What does that have to do with Trump?

To the contrary, Harris’ goal to fix food prices and bring on rationing, together with her refusal to answer questions, will get her kicked to the curb.

The plan is for a Trump presidency created by people who were members of the Trump administration. Your second sentence is a lie.

1.9% inflation. record wage growth. record unemployment for minorities. no new wars.

Employment. Unemployment went down.

 

[IM2]

Biden had a lower unemployment rate for blacks than Trump.

 

[BothWings]

He bears a large responsibility for the genocide in Gaza.

And both him AND his former boss for what's happening in Ukraine.

Wrong.

to a record low.

Not only have Americans standard of living declined, but the West is facing multiple wars and Chinas power has skyrocketed as they bide their time before they attack Taiwan.

Many want to make this 16 of the last 20 years.

Why?

It doesn’t matter. The US Empire is an aristocracy with a two-Party dictatorship by the billionaires.

Trump and Vance are their biggest supporters.

So what? The Heritage Foundation has a lot of good positions. I’m not surprised they support them. Still doesn’t mean they support everything in the Project 2025, although I imagine they will some of it.

Why shouldn’t they? They’re not running as liberals!

Hey dipshit, the Heritage Foundation PRODUCED the Project 2025 monstrosity

 

[candycorn]

speak for yourself loser boy.

Why are you so hostile all the time? How does that feed your spirit with any nourishment?

It's a fascist authoritarian Presidency if not adopted.

 

[BothWings]

Wrong.

Not at all. The Western plan was to use Ukraine to push Russia back and disclude them from global trade opportunites, particularly with Asia. It slightly backfired when Russia went all out and invaded. If some other country infiltrated Mexico and tweaked their government against us, and tried to cut us off from trading with them and other entities in the region, do you REALLY believe we wouldn't invade Mexico to oust that presence? Don't be so naive! The U.S. would most certainly do so and there would be collateral civilian damage just like in all of America's "wars". The same trhing our media is demonizing Russia for every day.

And now Ukraine is running around in Russia.

How did that work out, Putin.

And you know this “plan” because… how?

 

[BothWings]

And you know this “plan” because… how?

After seeing the obvious message in American anti-Russian propaganda and economic power plays for decades, it should be quite clear...even to an imbecile.

Why?

This is a stupid thread, as the government is never totally controlled by one person or a few congresspeople.

And because.of *our bonkers system, where the minority can ground our Congress to a halt.

I guess you forgot all about Bush. Each side has held the White House for 12 years. But both of the Democratic Administrations spent their entire time cleaning up and restoring the economy after the Republican President crashed the economy, throwing millions out of work.

The American standard of living declined because Republicans crashed the economy twice in those 20 years, enriching the wealthy, and impoverishing working and middle class Americans, right before the American people voted them out of office. Democratics were sworn into smoking economic ruin, and the worst pandemic in over 100 years.

Republicans have been an economic disaster since 1981. Reagan was the only President with decent job creation. From Bush 41 (2.6 million), Bush 43 (.5 million) and Trump (-2.6 million) added a net total of 500,000 jobs the 16 years they held office. Compare that to Clinton (22.8 million), Obama (11.5 million) and Biden (15 million so far), 44.3 million.

Pick any economic measure you can name, and the Republicans are massive failures. Worker wages - 1 increase to the minimum wage since Reagan was elected. Stock Market - way up under Democrats, crashing under Republicans. Balance of trade - trade deficits decline under Democrats and rise under Republicans, Weath and page gap - gets wider every time taxes are cut.

Republicans have created few jobs, ballooned the national debt with unfunded tax cuts and prolifigate spending, and destroyed the American dream. Why Americans trust them more with the economy is beyond me.
