I’m still worried about how he’s even going to accomplish that, seeing as he’s also planning to deport the cheapest sources of agricultural labor.
That’s easy! Repeal child labor laws and massively increase prison populations for slave labor!
…they did say private prisons were among the groups very happy to see a Trump victory. Wonder why…
I will make sure to suicide by cop before I end up a literal corporate slave, I will force the guards to kill me.
It doesn’t matter because republican voters don’t actually care about the price of eggs. They only pretend to if they think it will help them win. It’s actually amazing more people don’t understand this considering it has been a pattern in US elections for like 40 years now.
I hate that republicans like saying that republicans are better for the economy when they’re not

What’s worse is that the public is so fucking moronic that they EVER believe a word of it. It would be impossible to underestimate how stupid voters are. Honestly. They only surpass their stupidity with their selfishness
But when I suggested that perhaps we need to make sure people are mentally fit to vote, I’m a nazi. Keep letting the idiots vote and we’ll always be stuck with the lowest common denominator.
Sure, you might be able to get away with it in case of advanced dementia. When my father was an election watcher, he saw christian fundamentalists trying to convince election officiers, that a man so demented that didn’t even realize what was happening, only that those christian fundamentalists talking about how that man used to be voting for Fidesz allegedly.
I might know which user said that to you. I had a run in like that too. They kept telling how I was objectively a fascist for agreeing with the sentiment – was explicitly explaining that I am not sure how you would implement it precisely, but that it was understandable. NO ITS fAsCisT and UnCoNsTitUtIoNaL!!!
I know there’s no hard and fast solution. Education? But that will take time. Encouraging people to vote? But if we let all the fascists get away with it they’ll get in. Back in the 70s when I worked in a factory the hard line socialists always had a good turnout and got the vote at Union meetings etc. Those that were of a different opinion got shouted down so stopped going. The hardliners won.
Difficult times ahead.
Even Trump admitted Democrats were better for the economy
Yep, I’m sure he still believes that. Especially when he was like the worse performing president within that last few decades
During a March 2004 interview, Trump stated: “It just seems that the economy does better under the Democrats than the Republicans.”
That’s juhst gayr propahgandurrr
prices went up under Trump, Trump told people the prices went down, and dumb people believe him.
Biden told corporations to lower their prices, the corporations lowered their prices, Trump said prices went up, dumb people believed him.

you are incorrect.
Biden called out Walmart, Target and other big chain stores specifically about staple grocery prices and asked them to lower their prices. over the next few days and weeks, all of those stores lowered thousands of their grocery prices.
Biden launched and funded organizations to fight price gouging and shrinkflation through the ftc, inflation has been steadily being brought down by Biden ever since the catastrophe trump left him.
Thank you. It drives me bananas that people are so fucking lazy they can’t see any shade of gray. This is why bOtH sIdEs is popular. People just cannot be bothered to look at a fucking detail every now and then. Makes me want to scream.
High five.
it seems like Americans watched the South Park episode about Trump and Hillary, assumed it was the factual, comprehensive truth about all politics everywhere forever, and then never looked at any of the facts ever again.
The democrats reduce inflation.
The Republicans force women to die in hospital parking lots.
democrats fund civil rights advocacy groups.
The Republicans make memes about murdering senators.
Democrats significantly increase the value of the US dollar and lower unemployment
The leader of the Republicans is a rapist.
Honestly, you might be right about the SP episode. It was good criticism for its time, but people are literally too stupid to process context/nuance.
Don’t forget the 10 prescription meds Biden negotiated MUCH lower prices for.
But hey, “Biden didn’t do anything”
yep, that is good to throw in.
I try to keep these as specific as I can, because as soon as I mention more than one item in the same sentence, the conservative arguing with me is like “so first he reduced inflation, then he also reduced prescription drug prices? which is it? choose one!”
presidents can actually do more than one thing-
"Last year biden said he was 80!
this year Biden says he’s 81!
what’s the real number?"
Oh I know, the whole communication space is cooked. I don’t know if it was just bad PR or intentional manipulation but the concrete positive impacts of the Biden admin are so unknown its sad.
You were corrected by someone else here, but I just wanted to say that I hate that because Democrats suck in many ways, they literally get no credit for what good they actually do and then because of that, equated to Republicans who are a billion times worse. Which leads to bullshit apathy and that leads to the present situation.
Another example everyone will conveniently forget is that the Biden administration did something that should’ve happened 25 years ago: they forced Ticketmaster to include fees in advertised prices. Yeah it’s not the biggest accomplishment but they did fucking something positive, unlike Republicans.
The Biden administration also forced airlines to be better about refunds. Again, something that makes a small material difference in lives.
Presidents ought to be better but that doesn’t give you license to be so mentally lazy that you discount literally every good thing done which falls short of your wishlist.
You don’t need tariffs, you need taxes. The problem isn’t that your economy isn’t doing well, it’s that too much of the wealth goes to the top and too little to lower and middle class. It’s not normal that one man has more than 250 billion.
The best part is that Trump will not bring down the price of groceries.
Lol he has latched onto literally the only obvious idea one could execute as president which would be guaranteed to do the opposite.
It’s a banana, what could it cost? $10?
It doesn’t matter because it was never about the price of groceries.
Lol, groceries are about to go up. Trump wants to continue a pointless tariff war with China. It’s not going to work.
The CPC is more than willing to plunge their own citizens into poverty to outlast the US. Americans complain over a 20 cent increase in gas. How do you think they’ll react when most of their goods suddenly increase by 30% or more?
Chinese labor made the American middle class.
I think it’s funny how Tankies pretend China is a paradise. China will absolutely starve every man, woman, and child over the pettiest of shit, there’s no telling what they’d do to win a tariff war.
Definitely thought this was a statement on Amish Pennsylvania at first… cuz that’s just how markets look like there lol
Blessed be the cheap fruit
feelin cute, gonna repost this, might delete later k love you bi
Kamala Harris lost every swing state AND the Senate. We live in the same country we did 4 years ago, we live in the same country that elected Barrack Obama twice.
People are paying 50% more for bread, eggs, and rent, with no relief given, no corporate greed stiffled BEFORE it hit average Americans in the face, and just kept hitting them. The average American doesn’t care about economic numbers, they care about whether or not they can pay the rent.
Trump isn’t going to make any of this better, he’s going to make it ordinates worse. People vote for change, when faced with the inevitability of suffering they’ll vote for different, come what may.
