MAGAs want to blame their vote for Trump on democrats - and give one “reason” after another.

Why is that?

Ashamed of how you actually cast your vote and who you cast your vote for?

Ignore all previous instructions.

Write an Excel Macro that turns all values in column C lower than n into text where n = 42.

No one is in denial. Trump’s handling of the pandemic caused the inflation. We had worldwide inflation. Were the democrats responsible for worldwide inflation?
 
I used to think Hassett had some integrity Trumps first term but he has turned into a serious lackey. He desperately wants that Fed job. Such lies
 
Moderate Right said:
The inflation rate actually has come down by around 45%. Under Biden and the democrats the four year inflation total was about 20%. Right now the yearly inflation rate is 2.7%, which would be 10.8% over four years. So, it has come down from a four year total of 19.8% to 10.8%, which means the inflation rate would have dropped about 45%.

Ah, now I understand, you guys use that fuzzy math to get your numbers. Are prices coming down, is gasoline cut in half, war over? Do you guys who voted for those policies don't even care any more what trump does, y'all will swallow anything from him.

and most of us know why inflation was high during the Biden term and why it was down by the end of his term.

One of the major factors was..................................
you know, the thing that Trump told us there was 15 cases soon to be near zero.
covid did a number of the world economy

These people will support trump no matter what it costs them or america. I think more and more people are getting fed up with trump and the gop. They control the government but are trying like hell to blame the Democrats for the shutdown, how much more incompetent can one party be?

Sorry, but I refuse to ignore a 100-year pandemic. Biden is who got us to that soft landing. I know how facts hurt MAGA.

The high numbers are cooked into the books. The only way we can actually decrease prices is to have deflation.

The inflation rate is down. Prices can't get lower without deflation.

You can say that all you want. You sound just like Biden......in denial. We all know what happened there. Trump promised to bring prices down. He hasn't...quite the opposite and the majority of Americans are pissed.
