Default President Biden

Is an economic idiot.

At current gas prices, a family with two cars is saving an average of $140 a month compared to if prices had stayed at their mid-June peak.

That's a big deal for families like the one I grew up in.

He's an idiot. I paid much less before he was sworn in and was only spending about $50-60/wk in gas vs $120+/wk.

You cannot expect a person who has been a government official to know anything about people, the economy, or anything the ordinary American people do daily.

The moron has been in Washington for 50 years. Senators do not pay for food, don't pay for gas, they do not pay for anything. How can anyone expect them to know things we do?

Don't care what they spin. It's their actions and results I look at. Trump had great results. Biden couldn't finish a coloring book.

I feel so much better about the economy after he signed the inflation reduction act after he said he had already reduced it to 0%

Funny how my portfolio's don't reflect Biden's rhetoric. At All.

I DID email the City of Oakland (in CA) yesterday asking If I could now sell my rental house because Biden announced that the Pandemic was over.
Funny thing is, I still can't. Alameda County is still locked down in a 'state of emergency'.
Go figure.
Today I'm wondering, with oil at $83 per barrel, why gas is still priced as if it is $130 per barrel. We are paying right on $5 per gallon right now for 87 E-10 ethanol/regular.

Biden has always been a mental midget.

He has stepped on his dick so many times it’s surprising his feet never got pregnant.

Prices are currently artificially low because of stealing from the Strategic Reserve, a clever ploy just before the midterms - when that supply dwindles you can bet your bippy prices will head back up...

When I read the thread title, I was hoping that Brandon had announced his retirement.

last election we had a choice of a lifelong career politician... and one who just finished serving his first ever political office.

I thought that was a no-brainer
