Biden nor Trump can or will 'fix' this. They are both the root cause of the situation we are in.

pandemic lock down gas prices which is what we had in 2020 because very few people were working or driving
Pandemic lock downs occurred in March 2020.
A Month before lockdowns were even a thing, the national average for gas at the pump was $2.50. In the south we were paying $2.15 in February 2020.

Gas prices were 2.61 in 19 you fricking moron
Yes and with inflation over the last 5 years that 2.61 comes out to 3.24 which is close to what I paid for gas today.

Electing Trump isn't going to make prices come down or the cost of goods/services come down. It isn't going to make anything come down any significant amount. When it comes to spending and 'the economy' there isn't one single iota of difference between either one of these idiots. They both love to spend both love 'stimulus' and both love to brag about giving stuff away for free.

You got a link for that 20% or just another lying progressive?
Well since you can't read hyperbole, I think the listed rate for April 2020 was closer to 15%. And for funsies I'll mention that the unemployment rate right now is sitting at 3.8%.

Has everything to do with Bidens oil and gas policies. (The opposite of Trumps).
Its like anything that Trump supported Bidens handlers oppose.
Oil and gas
Immigration
Insulin prices
Trade and manufacturing
Not getting into wars.
I could go on but you get the message.

I went and did some math and funnily enough I'm in fact making about 27% more than I was making in 2019. But in all honesty that has more to do with moving to a different industry than anything else.

Pointing out that the bad situation we are currently in is due to Biden and Trump isn't 'whining'. It is a sane explanation. You can't blame one and not the other. They are both a fault and neither one of them is going to curtail spending or deliver the past due heartache we need to actually get this all fixed. Thinking either guy will is pure delusion and if you are a Trump supporter actual TDS. Reagan knew what had to be done to fix a situation like this but neither Trump or Biden have the guts to implement that. That is just a thing called reality.

I hear you. Imo, Trump won't spend his entire first year in office in 2025 claiming that inflation is only "transitory." That was a completely irresponsible thing that Biden, Yellen et al did that entire year of 2021. Instead of addressing the matter head on, they recycled Bernanke's/Obama's old made up term of "transitory" and placed this country further behind the 8-ball. Placing a Carter level MEOW (moral equivalent of war) against O&G on his first day in office was extremely dangerous that Biden circumvented Congress on. These are clown games that I don't see Trump making in good faith.

Ronald Reagan or Bill Clinton could. To understand this you have to understand and accept why we are where we are. You don't and won't understand it because you are a low IQ partisan hack.
Its going to take very tough decision(s) to fix this and neither Biden or Trump is willing to make them. They will continue to spend spend spend and act like things are just fine.
