Joe Biden embarrasses America.
America is supposed to be smart; Biden’s remarks are stupid. They are brain farts all the way down, starting with calling inflation our strength.
America is supposed to tell the truth; Biden’s remarks are lies all the way down, starting with blaming Covid and Putin for inflation.
America is supposed to honor its people; Biden’s remarks are hatred all the way down, starting with hatred for Republicans.
Inflation exists today because our government creates and spends too much money. The only way to curb inflation is for the government to create and spend less money. That inevitable correction is coming, and Stumble Joe has no useful role to play in responding to it.

Sorry, but YOU are the one spewing hared with your continuing attacks on Biden.
I have even curtailed my derogatory comments concerning TFG. Grow up like you tell others to do.

RE: “All you got is insults.”
My comments are substantive. Biden’s remarks are stupid (example given), lies (example given) and disrespectful (example given).
But if you’d like to cite something in the speech that isn’t stupid, false, and disrepectful to the people, you are welcome to do so.

“But if you’d like to cite something in the speech that isn’t stupid, false, and disrespectful to the people,”…
Not one word of it was anything that you described. Your pure, unadulterated hatred for Biden is on full display.
As Len said, the GOP should just get out of the way. They have zero plan to govern. They only have plans to steal power from the people, steal rights from women and people of color, give corporations the power to do whatever the hell they feel like doing, economy and environment be damned, and gerrymander their way to legislative majorities with a minority of voters.

Yes. It is such a wonderful thing to have fictional characters running the country. We tried that for 4 years and, well, let’s just say truth is stranger than fiction.

Thanks for the link. I had not intended to watch it but given the very negative comments you attached to it I decided to see for myself all the monumental stupidity, egregious lies, and hatred of Republicans on display. I have now watched it in its entirety.
You have grotesquely and dishonestly characterized the entire presentation. It was NOT stupid. It was not dishonest. And it was not hateful.
Most obviously, there was NOT ONE WORD of hatred directed at Republicans. NOT ONE WORD. Saying that there was such hatred is either an outright lie or a pathological inability to hear MAGA Republican ideas criticized. The President offered many points of contrast between his ideas and ideas proposed by MAGA Republicans in Congress. He was not making those ideas up. Senator Scott – a leader of the GOP in Congress – published their plan some months back. The President reported on its features honestly. It is telling that you found the President bringing up Republican ideas as evidence of hatred for Republicans. Telling and laughable.
As for lies, that is just plain false. Maybe you think opinions that you do not like are lies. That would be stupid but what else could account for such a piece of horseshit as “Biden’s remarks are lies all the way down.”
More specifically, it is NOT a LIE that the pandemic’s wide-reaching economic effects and the Russian disruption of the world’s food and energy supplies are major contributors to the inflation we are experiencing. It is the simple truth. It is STUPID to call that truth a lie as you have done. Really stupid. Or dishonest. Who knows with you people?

Certainly the pandemic caused some of the problem, initially, but I don’t remember you give Trump a pass on the effects it had when he was in office.
But granting that the pandemic recovery did light a fire in the economy, trying to put it out with gasoline(possibly the last we had)was stupid.

When was the last time the world shut down the economy for a year or so? Not a bubble burst, but a shutdown stopping production, distribution, and sales.
I don’t expect today’s Republicans to be part of the solution, but at least they can get out of the way. The cult segment of the GOP is still outraged that Biden got an infrastructure bill through a hostile Congress with a small margin for error. Four years, 2 with clear majorities in Congress, and they could not do anything about our infrastructure. Or a wall. Or ACA. Or North Korea. Or China. Even manufacturing output was declining at the end of 2019.
The US is recovering better than most nations, but inflation is still global and will be as supply lines are still slow to recover. Yet we have almost record low unemployment, higher wages and still needing 11 million jobs filled.
But the GOP is not really addressing that, or the war, or lingering pandemic effects, or…
They are masters at the culture wars. Or so they think. God, Gays and Guns and now fertilized eggs.

The $1.9Trillion “Infrastructure” bill. of which almost none has been spent on infrastructure, was unneeded and inflationary. There was plenty of pent up demand and people were returning to work, All Biden had to do was stay out of the way but instead he doled out a Trillion or so to his fans while smothering the recovering industries in regulation, firing up demand while killing supply.
The inflation we have now and the gas prices are 90% his doing. And the people know it.

90%, Wow!
Europe, Asia and Africa too? Good Lord Biden is God himself if he affects the entire globe.
Our economy is rebounding better than most. Why should oil companies expand production if they are making billions with prices high and demand strong. If they increase supplies prices will drop and fracking becomes unprofitable.
Biden is taking the heat and says so. Unlike a recent president who took responsibility for squat.

I was unaware that Asia and Africa and Europe were flooding the marketplace with freshly printed US dollars.
Why should oil companies pour their profits into opening new wells when the administration’s public policy is to bankrupt them before 2024? Especially when they can’t get permits for the pipelines to sell the petroleum and gas if they do get it to the surface.
Would you put your life savings into a hotel if the government was going to dig a moat around it and then burn it down a few years later?

It is still skyrocketing. In his speech, Biden proposed to cut the deficit by 1/30 or so of its totality.

“In his speech, Biden proposed to cut the deficit by 1/30 or so of its totality.”
Your ignorance and partisan hackery are on full display today. There could not be two more easily understood terms than “deficit” and “debt.” And yet you are sounding off without – it seems – knowing the difference.
The “deficit” is the difference between government revenues and government spending in each fiscal year. That deficit increased in every year that Trump was President. The deficit DECREASED last year – Biden’s first year – by the biggest amount ever and is on track to decrease again this year.
The debt is the accumulated amount that the U.S. Government has borrowed over the decades. Almost all of that National Debt is due to Republican tax cuts combined with borrow and spend fiscal policy every time they have taken control. Now, with Biden as President, for the first time in decades there will be a reduction of the debt. THAT is the 1/30th that you are talking about. It is a step in the right direction that Mr. Trump never came close to in spite of his many claims that eliminating the nation’s debt would be easy for him to pull off.

RE: “There could not be two more easily understood terms than ‘defici’” and ‘debt.'”
Where do I misunderstand them? Every penny of deficit spending adds to the national debt. Biden claims he will cut the deficit this year by $1.5 trillion. But there will still be a deficit. Consequently the national debt — currently about $30 trillion — will continue to grow.

Uh, you claimed it was full of lies. You claimed it dishonored the American people. You claimed it was full of hatred directed at Republicans. You are the one who should be citing the parts that support your really stupid opinions.
Your only attempt so far was your calling his simple true statements about drivers of inflation “lies.” Why not try again and tell us which statements were full of hatred for Republicans? Should be easy because you have told us that “Biden’s remarks are hatred all the way down, starting with hatred for Republicans.”
But, even though the onus is on you, I will play along. I found ALL of the speech to be honest, smart, and respectful of the American people who are struggling with inflation. I also noted that when the President said something that was exaggerated, he immediately corrected himself and that is something that Mr. Trump could never bring himself to do.
