• Under Trump gasoline was about $1.80 a gallon….but you voted against that
• Under Trump we were energy independent….but you voted against that.

Gas averaged much higher under trump.

We are more energy independent under President Biden.. In fact we are closing in on being oil independent too. We exported 5.624 mbd while importing 6.208 mbd in the last week of Feb.

Everyone knows that you are nothing more than lying scum.

That's true. My questions all centered around what actions President Trump took in the lame duck period culminating on Jan15th 2021, that you kept dodging. But it seems you believe it was his loss in the election that drove him to reduce our troop level way beyond what he agreed to in the Doha Agreement. Or Rather, his belief that it was stolen, that drove him to gift that force reduction to the Taliban. So there is no need to continue your trite insult feast any longer. Unless you believe he had other reasons for his actions?

They're really simple questions.
Why hide, every reader knows both the aswers and your fear of answering.

Who was President for the debacle???

And.....did the sitting President have any obligation to follow a plan by the preceding President?

Why did Biden screw it up so badly???


Why do you vote for failure and injury to America???



And.....exactly when did you become the low-life scummy liar that readers recognize????

Everything you "know" is a lie. That's why you vote Democrat, dunce.


“The New Leviathan,” David Horowitz and Jacob Laksin

1. In the conventional wisdom, it is Republicans and the political right, with their corporate sponsors and big-money donors who make up the “party of the rich,” while progressives speak for the poor and powerless.
   1. And conservatives are agents of an economic “ruling class” organized to defend its social privileges.
   2. And Democrats are the party of “working Americans and their families.”
   3. “They're for the powerful, we're for the people!” Al Gore, http://www.google.com/#hl=en&sugexp=les%3B&gs_nf=1&gs_mss=Al%20Gore%3A%20They&pq=obtunded%20definition&cp=38&gs_id=6g&xhr=t&q=Al%20Gore%3A%20They're%20for%20the%20powerful%3B%20we're%20for%20the%20people&pf=p&sclient=psy-ab&oq=Al+Gore:+They're+for+the+powerful%3B+we're+for+the+people&gs_l=&pbx=1&bav=on.2,or.r_gc.r_pw.r_qf.&fp=708bd950daecd80b&biw=1152&bih=773
2. This is standard progressive folklore. Provably false.
3. As of 2009, the financial assets of the 115 major tax-exempt foundations of the Left add up to $104.56 billlion. Not only is this total not less than the financial assets of the 75 foundations of the Right, it was more than ten times greater! [p. 8]
   1. Bradley, Olin, Scaife, the “Big Three” conservative foundations, not one has assets exceeding $1 billion. (Olin has been defunct since 2005).

Scaife Foundation has assets totaling $244 million.

Bradley Foundation, $623 million.

1. Fourteen progressive foundations do, including Gates, Ford, Robert Wood Johnson, Hewlett, Kellogg, Packard, MacArthur, Mellon, Rockefeller, Casey, Carnegie, Simons, Heinz, and the Open Society Institute.

Ford alone has 16 times what Bradley has.

Soros has claimed that he has donated over $7 billion to his Open Society organizations.

The leading Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, $33 billion.

1. With over $100 billion in tax-exempt assets at their disposal, left-wing foundations have been able to invest massively greater amounts in their beneficiary groups. Ford gave more in one year than Scaife in 40!
   1. “By compiling a computerized record of nearly all his contributions over the last four decades, The Washington Post found that Scaife and his family's charitable entities have given at least $340 million to conservative causes and institutions… The Ford Foundation gave away $491 million in 1998 alone.” http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-srv/politics/special/clinton/stories/scaifemain050299.htm

Top Ten Donors, 2016 Campaign:

Fahr LLC, Renaissance Technologies, Paloma Partners, Newsweb Corp., NextGen Climate, Priorities USA, Soros …..to the Democrats: $311 million

Los Vegas Sands, Adelson Clinic, Elliott Management, Renaissance Technologies….to Republicans: $110 million

Organization Profiles

1. 
   
2. Soros money supported and catalyzed theMcCain-Feingold Act, which banned ‘soft money,’ stripping the two major parties of their financial base. This allowed Soros to create a “Shadow Party,” designed to funnel massive amounts of capital into organizations that would assume the role that the political parties traditionally played.
   1. A 527 group is a private, tax-exempt political organization set up under Section 527 of the U.S. tax code. Such groups have been around for years but never took center stage until 2004, when they became major players. That's because McCain-Feingold shut the door on unlimited contributions (so-called "soft money") to political parties, so that many of the big-dollar donations began flowing to 527 groups instead. http://reason.com/archives/2005/05/09/mccain-feingold-at-rest
3. The Shadow Party was born July 17, 2003, at Soros’s estate. It created the largest and most powerful juggernaut in American history. Present were Madeleine Albright, John Podesta, John Pope (director of the Sierra Club), Andy Stern (SEIU), among others. The basic structure of the Shadow Party was a network of seven 527 organizations.
   1. “… the network of nonprofit activist groups organized by George Soros and others to mobilize resources -- money, get-outthe-vote drives, campaign advertising and policy initiatives -- to elect Democratic candidates and guide the Democratic Party towards the left. The Internet fund-raising operation MoveOn.org is a key component. The Shadow Party in this sense was conceived and organized principally by Soros, Hillary Clinton and Harold Ickes. Its efforts are amplified by, and coordinated with, key government unions and the activist groups associated with the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now (ACORN). The key organizers of these groups are veterans of the Sixties left.” http://www.churchmilitant.tv/cia/02fake/102.pdf

Then let's overturn Citizens United. Why do the right wing justices all say corporations should be allowed to donate as much money, and secretly, to politicians? If you truly want to take Soros out of it tell the right wing Supreme's to overturn Citizens United

• Under Trump we were energy independent….but you voted against that.
• Under Trump 80% of illegal alien were kept in Mexico….but you voted against that.
• Under Trump inflation was 1.4%….but you voted against that.
• Under Trump crime was far lower, as were homicides….but you voted against that.
• Under Trump Iran was kept in a box….but you voted against that.
• Under Trump America had an airbase near both China and Iran….but you voted against that.
• Under Trump our President wasn’t on China’s payroll….but you voted against that.
• Under Trump cartels weren’t free to operate….but you voted against that.
• Under Trump government didn’t favor racism, CRT, gender mutilation….but you voted against that.
• Under Trump we didn’t have confiscatory tax policy….but you voted against that.
• Under Trump we didn’t have a government working with big tech to end free speech….but you voted against that.
• 
  
• You have proven to be one of the America-hating 5th columnists. Proud?

You and your right wing fascists are the ones who hate America. You hate the fact that Americans can vote against you so the GOP attacks voting rights. I am very proud to be fighting you right wing fascists.

Not one thing you said is true.
It was Donald Trump who brokered a agreement with OPEC+ to raise the price of oil and he succeeded at the expense of the US.
The reason that illegals were down is because of the pandemic.
Inflation is happening because of monopolies that are gouging consumers.
Trump withdrew from Syria, giving Iran and Russia complete control.
Federal law enforcement officials are still arresting cartel members.
Crime is up in red states.
No one is on China's payroll.
Government still doesn't favor racism. You have no clue what CRT is. There is no gender mutilation. That is a talking point.
Republicans are more worried about the rich getting richer and want to help them cheat on their taxes.
There is no such thing as big tech ending free speech. Private companies are not bound by free speech rights.

So you disagree with his observations about the effect of Democrat tax and crime policies???? I mention mental defectives and this one rushes to prove it.

The highest violent crime rates are in red states.

Let's check:


. Under Trump:
“Black unemployment rate falls to 5.9%, ties record low hit earlier this year”

Black unemployment rate falls to 5.9%, ties record low hit earlier this year

The employment picture for black Americans is better than it ever has been, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistic.

Any praise for Obama is purely propaganda. The man is an incompetent ingrate....very much like you.





He inherited an average economy, and never improved it.







So says the Left-leaning Reuters:



The unemployment rate announced three days after his election was 6.5%....not particularly terrible. But it was the only economic news, and had Obama insisting we were suffering "the worst economic crisis since the Great Depression." http://www.reuters.com/article/2008/10/08/usa-politics-debate-economy-idUSN0749084220081008







Obama did a terrible job with his Democrat policies:

"...the economy was stagnating in 2016 after the weakest recovery from a recession since the Great Depression.



In fact, The New York Times itself described Obama's economy this way in August 2016: "For three quarters in a row, the growth rate of the economy has hovered around a mere 1%. In the last quarter of 2015 and the first quarter of 2016, the economy expanded at feeble annual rates of 0.9% and 0.8%, respectively. The initial reading for the second quarter of this year, released on Friday, was a disappointing 1.2%."



...GDP growth decelerated in each of the last three quarters of 2016."



And on January 27, 2017, after the government reported that GDP growth for all 2016 was a mere 1.6% — the weakest in five years —"

Economic Boom: Media Rewrite History To Credit Obama Instead Of Trump

The stronger the economy gets under President Trump, the more desperate his critics are to hand credit for the economic boom to Obama. Even if that entails changing the past.

www.investors.com

Trump picked up an revitalized the economy:



In short, there was no upward trajectory to the economy on anyone's radar when Trump took office.” Economic Boom: Media Rewrite History To Credit Obama Instead Of Trump

The unemployment rate was 5.4% when Trump took office. GDP growth under Trump was little changed from the rate under Obama.

[80zephyr]

Black people getting a job is Trumps doing? LMAO.. I'd say it was black folks taking responsibility for their own lives. When the economy is on the rebound (as it was BEFORE Trump took office, the unemployment rates always go down.


The president, any president has very little to do with the economy. All they can really do is make it worse. As we seen just after Trump left office when the inflation rates started to climb. It takes about 1.5 years before any new presidents policies start showing up in the economy. And even then, it's very minimal.
They borrow a ton of money, dump it into the economy and things look good for a while. But all that new money devalues the existing currency, and KA F'n BOOM, here comes inflation to counter all that currency devaluation.

It's the same thing presidents have been doing since Reagan. Which I might add, is when the national debt started skyrocketing.


Obama also inherited what Biden inherited. The ONLY reason Trump didn't have to fix what he messed up, was because he was a 1 term president. The economic bust was coming, no matter who was the president.
Obama's policies weren't any better than W's. It was just the timing of when the bills come due for all the borrowing and spending he did.
Who ever comes after Captian Dementia (Biden) is going to have to deal with the same economic down turn as Biden himself has had to. Because Biden is about on track with all of Trumps spending.

Trump; "We're going to balance the budget in 4 years." He didn't even try. He, Ryan and Pelosi went on a shopping spree so big, they had to eliminate the debt ceiling for two years, just to hide the receipts.




Agreed. Obama sucked. Biden sucks. Trump was just as bad. But he had timing on his hands and was dishing out TRILLIONS to folks. People love their government checks. Including the multi billion $$$ corporations who got a lot of that money.


Obama was bad. That's why I didn't vote for him either time.


Again, Trump just got lucky to get elected when the economy was recovering. Had he stopped the printing presses and not borrowed so much, inflation under Biden wouldn't have been as high.
Like I said, it takes about 1.5 years for any new presidents policies to show up in the economy. But the biggest part of an economy's correction, comes from the free market. Shopper and businesses adapting. Businesses lay off employee's until the demand for their products go back up, Then they start hiring again. This circulates even more money into the economy. And slowly, things get better.
We all just have to get used to our dollars not going as far, because all that new money the government dumps into the economy, makes existing currency worth less.

I feel I've been very clear on this. This is economics 101.

Trump spent because of covid.

 

[mudwhistle]

The unemployment rate was 5.4% when Trump took office. GDP growth under Trump was little changed from the rate under Obama.

When Trump left office inflation was 1.4%.
Biden had it at 8% in less than a year.

Wanna know how he did it?

You and your right wing fascists are the ones who hate America. You hate the fact that Americans can vote against you so the GOP attacks voting rights. I am very proud to be fighting you right wing fascists.

You're saying that big tech didn't conspire with the Biden Adm to stifle free speech....but then you turn around and claim private companies don't have freedom of speech. Seems to me you're lying.

Are you Canadian or something?

Trump spent because of covid.

Obama only spent what he did to get us out of the Bush recession. If not for Bush he would have had a surplus like Clinton did. Same with Biden. He had to clean up Trump's mess.

 

[BlindBoo]

Who was President for the debacle???

And.....did the sitting President have any obligation to follow a plan

The Trumpyberra of course, the architect of the Trumpybear Skedaddle Accords. Where he pretended to be engaged in a conditional withdrawal, that is our withdrawal was based on the condition that the Taliban meet their obligations, like starting the peace negotiations and a cease fire between the Taliban and the Afghan Army and Afghan Government. See none of those conditions were met and still Benedict Donnie still withdrew 80% of our troops by Jan 15th 2021. Benedict left the next CiC a mere 2,500 troops which was not enough for the evacuation and several thousand had to be redeployed to Afghanistan

Remember when the Orange Globual said this:

"How about that? Worse than Afghanistan, where, by the way, I started the process. All the troops are coming back home. They couldn’t stop the process.

Donald Trump: (22:53)
21 years is enough. Don’t we think? 21 years. They couldn’t stop the process. They wanted to, but it was very tough to stop the process when other things…yeah. Thank you. Thank you. It’s a shame."

Now why do you suppose the Blurter in chief blurted that out?

Benedict Donald.

The Swamp Grew – Even Under President Donald Trump

In 100 of 122 executive agencies, the average pay exceeded $100,000 per year.

www.forbes.com

In FY2020, the federal government disclosed 2.8 million employees — including 1.4 million executive agency bureaucrats; 698,547 DOD employees; and 678,537 USPS employees — for an estimated total compensation cost of $292 billion. (Formula: disclosed cash compensation: $225 billion plus an estimated 30-percent in benefits equals $292 billion).

2. THE SWAMP GETS BIGGER: 1.4 million disclosed employees in the executive agencies (non DOD and USPS) rose to a modern-day high (2020) – up 3.7-percent from 1.35 million employees in FY2016. Veterans Affairs with 421,542 employees was the largest ......
