That would be Biden's handlers own fault for funding Hamas.

"Polls show former President Donald Trump is ascendant with the youngest bloc of the electorate, even leading President Joe Biden in some surveys, as less-engaged young voters spurn Biden. Meanwhile, Biden is stronger with seniors than he was four years ago, even as his personal image is significantly diminished since he was elected last time." https://www.politico.com/news/2024/04/07/voter-age-biden-trump-2024-election-00150923 One thing Trump is (beyond being a bombastic jackass) is transformational.

Grades are literally a measure of achievement. Are grades discrimination? Hell yes. They are discriminating between those that did do the work and those that didn't. Some discrimination is good.

I'm not sure it won't hurt the GOP. But it is a very noble cause.

That is a fair point. However, the money that was spent during COVID was debt that was bought by the Fed...aka printed money. That causes inflation by devaluinf money.

I blame them both.

Oh, so now you are an expert? Please tell us how increasing government spending, which increases demand, makes the too much demand and too few goods ratio better.

If only I had acknowledged congress in my first post. Guess that was a big Oopsy on my part. Oh wait, I did. Oh, and look, here is Biden increasing spending again: https://ofr.harvard.edu/news/federal-update-president-biden-releases-fy24-budget-request Oh look, here is the House talking about how Joe keeps spending he wasn't authorized to spend: https://budget.house.gov/press-release/house-budget-committee-holds-biden-administration-accountable-at-hearing-on-the-presidents-fiscal-year-2025-budget-request-with-omb-director-shalanda-young It's almost like you are wrong.

Hmm...really? So the president can't propose a budget to congress? Did Joe propose a budget that reduced spending?

Remember when the victimization rose 44% in 2022? Good times. Hey, let's compare 2023 to 2022 and pretend we fixed it when the number dropped a little! It worked with gas! https://smdp.com/2023/12/12/violent-crime-is-up-and-also-down-according-to-new-federal-data/

Ok, maybe it is just a funny video kind of day? Almost impossible to get near the sun. Does that mean it can be done?

This is so accurate in so many ways. https://rumble.com/v4ok0dr-biden-my-legacy-will-be-that-i-reduced-the-prospect-of-war-because-of-vietn.html Yes, Joe did keep us out of war with Vietnam.

Here is the website for the coliseum: https://www.cvent.com/venues/rock-hill/arena-stadium/winthrop-university-winthrop-coliseum/venue-97262f84-8304-411e-a097-fb5f1efbcec8 It says it holds 6100. But that appears to be with the basketball court installed. Here is the video of the event: At 1:40, they show from the camera forward. There are at least a couple of thousand people from the camera to the stage and behind. IF the event was sold out, there is at least 6,100 + whatever is on the floor. Sanity check: Why would 3,000 people show up to the airplane but only a few hundred show up to the actual speech? What logic justifies that?

"nflation ran hot for a third straight month in March, raising questions about when the Federal Reserve will feel confident that price pressures are subdued and it can begin cutting interest rates." https://www.msn.com/en-us/money/markets/inflation-accelerated-in-march-cpi-report-shows-whats-the-impact-on-fed-rate-cuts/ar-BB1lofCK Not that anyone here would have seen it, but I've been saying that rate increases aren't the way to handle this round of inflation. This round of inflation was caused by a lack of supply that started with covid but was extended with baby boomers retiring. To counter lack of supply, we need low interest rates to facilitate borrowing to modernize systems and hire new employees.

Nailed it.

Was this sarcasm?

That is not true. Republicans wanted a different law. They sent someone to negotiate a law. The compromise law was insanely bad. It was never going to get passed.

Oh, I'll burst your bubble. The President is quite responsible for inflation. In fact, the president (along with congress) controls the biggest budget in the world. Since inflation is too much money chasing too few goods, if the president were to cut spending he could reduce demand for goods and services and that would decrease inflation.

Long time reader, first time poster...lol Jokes aside, the housing market is a perfect example of how the economy has become unaffordable. "Home Buyers Need to Earn $47,000 More Than in 2020 The income needed to comfortably afford a home is up 80% since 2020, while median income has risen 23% in that time. Home shoppers today need to make more than $106,000 to comfortably afford a home. That is 80% more than in January 2020, showing how the math has changed for hopeful buyers, who are more often partnering with friends and family or “house hacking” their way to homeownership." https://www.zillow.com/research/buyers-income-needed-33755/ But the market has to be a two fold problem, right? I can't imagine that an additional two million people that crossed our border illegally didn't play a part in driving up the cost of housing.
