Do you exist purely in the present with no knowledge of how past actions create future problems?
I legitimately don't think they do. Hence why when Trump got elected they said he was fixing the economy day one... because it was going up... from the things Obama did...
They really can't grasp that it's not always who is president on that date. Or that somethings aren't caused by them.
Yep, like they lack object permanence.
Are you saying Biden caused the war in Ukraine and Trump caused $2 gas, without causing $3-4 gas today?
Do you understand that the economy has momentum that takes years to fully manifest? We don't live in a command economy, lmao.
Holy shit you're legitimately a lunatic, to be referencing fucking WE as a source.
Either way, nothing you've pointed to means Trump's terrible economic choices for short term gains and long term disaster didn't also impact gas prices, or even the majority of the impact.
Please, keep consuming anti-science brainrot and continue to persist in your white-supremacist echo chamber. I'm sure one day you'll hate your way into happiness!
Sure, he did one thing that likely did impact gas prices. That does not in any way mean that Trump's fucking terrible economic policy isn't a thing. It's anti-science to deny climate change, which the WE does.
I never made the point that it didn't affect gas prices, you failed to deny Trump's impact on gas prices. This is how logic works, though I know it's difficult for you.
I did not argue that point. I claimed that Trump's dogshit economic policy was a major factor in today's inflation, but I understand that reading and logic don't come naturally to you. Trump made decisions that directly harmed the economy in the long run purely to make himself look better.
We cannot argue about environmental impact, it's a fact. The fact that you even suggest that it's arguable proves your own lack of intelligence, the same as you pretending I claimed Biden had no impact.
Plenty, but they appear to go over your head as you constantly dodge and pull whataboutisms.
Yes, I said that.
Trump isn't to blame for Biden's impact on gas prices. At the same time, Biden isn't to blame for the disastrous economic policy of Trump that caused massive inflation and instilled purely incompetent people into stations like the Supreme Court. Gas prices have trajectory, if you can recognize that Biden has had a negative impact on gas prices then surely you can understand that Trump royally fucked the economy, along with Social Programs and steered the US towards fascism.
I'm not a Biden Stan, I think he's a shitty lib. Shitty libs are better than incompetent fascists.
I remember when Biden invaded Ukraine and told Israel to attack Gaza. That was after he pulled the 'housing price' and 'gas price' levers in the White House, of course.
Hmm... which would I rather have, someone passive that doesn't directly cause problems or an unapologetic fascist who uses Hitler-style language in his speeches and promises to open concentration camps?
But I'm sure you're white, heterosexual, Christian and male, so you'll be fine.
What racist language? What are you talking about?
Feel free to quote me. This should be interesting.
Because it's calling Trump and Republicans racist and sexist? They're the ones who want to oppress anyone who is not white, heterosexual, Christian and male.
Let me guess- it's racist to call someone a racist.
Well then it's a good thing I didn't attribute everything to race, isn't it?
Nope. I didn't attribute your approval for Trump to anything. That is a lie. I said nothing about why you support Trump.
I said I hope you weren't any of those things, because if you are, Trump will oppress you.
This is a terrible attempt at gaslighting.
Yes, and that very clearly says nothing about why you support Trump.
Your gaslighting will not make me accuse you of what you claim I accused you of and I think you're aware of that, so I'm not sure why you're bothering.
Besides what you have already been told, there already was war in both Ukraine and Israel. Ukraine's open military conflict with Russia has been active since at least 2014, and Israel has been in conflict with Palestine and neighbours since its foundation following WW2.
Wesern media not covering them until it was relevant to the US national interests and them not happening are entirely different things.
So you want COVID back? Because that was clearly Trump's fault.
Every country got Covid, basically. You know that, right?
Obviously. But Trump was president so he was in charge.
If your bit was sarcasm, then that makes more sense. Trump was not particularly good on Covid, but we would have had a big problem regardless of who was president at the time.
I'm basically making fun of you for equating correlation with causation.
Not very bright, are you?
Hey pal, you just blow in from stupid town?
