"There Will Be Some Short Term Pain"

Joe Biden wasn't able to lower inflation amid the worst Pandemic in a century IMMEDIATELY and didn't control the price of gas or eggs with his magic wand that doesn't exist, but the GOP tells us with a straight face, "There will be some short term pain."

Biden left office with the best economy in the world, but as Trump comes in and fucks it all up because of his strong belief in tariffs (which he really doesn't understand) were told to have patience.

OMFG: How in God's name can anyone listen to the same elected Congressional Republicans who hammered Biden everyday over things they knew were beyond his control, but now tells us to suck ut up and endure some short term pain.

Then again, Clinton left office in 2000 with a budget surplus and people elected the idiot son of a former president.

The stupidity; IT BURNS!!!

you folks are missing the boat and then some. He WANTS to crash the economy and country so he and his Billionaire boys club can own it. It's not complicated. Think about it. He's following Putin's book verbatim.
