Indeed. I learned on mybb that capitol riots were mainly by antifa so I was expecting republicans to be excited about commission but it seems rioters were not antifa after all.

Prices for most things are determined by market forces like Dr Copper, not politicians, although they might like to think they had a hand in it.

What is overlooked when it comes to inflation in the US is the Stimulus Packages that have been made over the last year. When you create money and hand it out it raises the money supply in the economy you get a situation of more money chasing the same amount of goods.
I learnt this in Economics First Year, the lecturer harped on about it at length.
The US has pushed in Trillions into their economy over the last year.

You can't equate it to our measly R350.00 per month subsistence allowance for the poor folk given out at the Post Office.

I'm more amazed at the strength of the Rand over the last year given the shutdown of the economy due to COVID Regulations.

I think in today's economy, more money supply in the US just means more imports from China. And China has plenty more goods to sell.

22 GOP-led states are blocking Biden's unemployment benefits? And they expect people to vote for them in the midterms/ever? :ROFL: :ROFL: :ROFL:

www.cbsnews.com

As GOP-led states end enhanced unemployment benefits, the Biden administration struggles to find a way to get workers funding

An official told CBS News the federal government paying the benefits to some unemployed Americans directly is "pretty much off the table."

If they don't get to reap the fruits of a Biden presidency, and only experience the negatives, then they will be less likely to vote for Democrats in future.

I’m not sure that’s how it works.

When VAR gives your opponent a penalty in the 89th minute that costs you the game, you sure don’t shout at your own players… it’s all goddamn referee, goddamn Stockley Park.

These folks know what’s what.

Blindly partisan folks will still vote Republican, but as reasons go, this ain’t it.

Lol what? :ROFL:

How is republican governors taking away people's means of survival a "negative of a Biden presidency" ?

Surely the negative falls squarely on the republicans?

Or did you praise your mom for slapping granny's candy out of your hand as a child?

Yes, not everyone is looking to rely on or extract as much from the government as possible. Republicans looking good to retake the House simply through re-districting. Of the special elections this year, all I see are high energy Republican voters and low energy Dem voters.

What he probably means that some states are so red that unless every republic senator commits some heinous crime (and video evidence available on fox only), red voters won't budge.

Joe Biden Gets Roasted For His Terrible Golf Swing​


www.thegatewaypundit.com

"How Did the Ball Go in That Direction?" - Joe Biden Gets Roasted For His Terrible Golf Swing (VIDEO)

This is beyond pathetic. Joe Biden golfed Monday morning in Delaware before heading back to the White House. Someone captured footage of Biden attempting to golf and it was hideously embarrassing. Joe Biden is actually worse at golf than we thought. Biden sucks at everything. Joe Biden’s golf...

That's because the liberal media refuse to report on anything bad about Biden.
They have literally become the propaganda arm of the Democrats. That's why they talk about his golf swing. And you people think it's funny.....

What stories have aired or been written about Biden in which the liberal media weren't singing Biden's praises, or ignoring other stories. It's four more years of Obama style sycophantic "journalism".

The media doesn't just fabricate events. They report on events.

Or are you trying to say that Biden is actually praising neo-nazis or selling national parks to oil companies or inciting insurrections and the media is silent about it?

Hahahaha yes they just choose to ignore certain events that are bad for Biden's image and report favourably on others if they do report on it. Come on, even you must admit that this is true......
