Credit rating downgrade 2.5 years into this administration.
Anybody try buying a raw skirt steak at Publix lately?
$30/lb.
Inflation under this president is unbelievable.
C'mon Joe Manchin... Get in the damn race.

I've seen this movie before, the ending is never a surprise. Grocery inflation has fallen to 4.7% year-over-year as of June, down from 13.5% as of August 2022.
Unemployment is 3.6%, lots of people spending.

Thank God the fed does not act like the DOJ or inflation would be at 20%

I sure hope so.
I hope the prices drop back to where they were prior to Brandon, but I doubt it.
Thank you Joe Manchin for killing the build back better agenda.
If that had gone through, inflation would have been much much worse.
An 80 year old man that has limited days in this life should not be making decisions for future generation.
Same with a 77 year old.

Build Back Better passed albeit @ $2.2 trillion rather than $3.5 trillion.

You might want to rethink that...double down on the hypocrisy...or just jump to ad hominem, as is your nature.
I'll stand happily by your side no matter your choice. I'm here for you, OhMy.
How old are you, incidentally?

Younger than you are. You are a keyboard cowboy. I am sure you do not speak to people like that face to face.

They're all keyboard cowboys... I don't talk politics much outside of here. But I do find it funny that those that go around calling others sissy soy boys and such get surprised when they get punched in the teeth.
