Administrations don’t set budgets. Sure Biden and Trump can attempt EOs that impact tax revenue and executive agencies can create and enforce regulations that impact the market place negatively, but the budget and spending is controlled by the legislature. It’s true that most Dems don’t care about the deficit and many GOPers just give it lip service.Nice list of Fox talking points you got there.
So when this happens under Trump it's fine?
It was his administration that raised the debt by 7.8+ trillion, not Biden.
High prices? Inflation doesn't happen overnight so to blame it on Democrats is a silly argument. Inflation started in early 2021 and while a number of the reasons can be blamed on the covid supply shortages you could reasonably blame the 45 administration for things like tariffs, lowering interest rates rather than raising them back in 2018. Because you know what? Tariffs are inflationary, they pass the price increase to the consumer. Trump passing X% tariffs on another country means that American consumers will end up paying that price hike.
You raise interest rates to curb inflation. Back in 2018, the market had been going up for 9 straight years and the FED wanted to raise rates. Trump wanted to have a similar monetary policy to countries like Japan and Germany, near zero to negative interest rates to boost the markets. The FOMC lowers rates, the market went from being flat in 2018 to skyrocketing in 2019. Covid hit in 2020, markets fall, FOMC lowers rates, even more, to make sure we don't enter a recession (right move), and the market skyrockets again. Now rates are finally being raised but the damage is already there.
Racism? That's hilarious, especially coming from a party who have shown to be the racist ones. You can tell from this thread from the pro-Capitol storm folk and the anti BLM folk. Nothing is wrong with saying BLM. It would be like if your neighbor's house was burning down and you went to the fire dept and yelled "WHAT ABOUT MY HOUSE? ALL HOUSES MATTER?" Sure, all houses need to be taken care of but at this moment it's the house on fire that needs to be tended to. Tending that house does not mean the fire dept is against the other houses on the street.
Open Borders - Our nation was founded by immigrants, for immigrants. Most people coming here aren't coming here illegally. Ya'll folk think anyone coming over is too much but will retort with "As long as they're legal, it's fine" but I know deep done a number of you just want America to be like Japan rather than a melting pot. I'm basing this off of what old friends/family in KY have said to me and how I've seen their friends act in small-town KY.
Connecting the last two, they turn to racism because that's how they were raised. It's a trait based out of ignorance and fear.
No-Law -- See 45's entire life story. See ideals that are straight-up anti-democratic.
Violence and Destruction -- Captiol Storming, Charlottesville, 45s threat to Democracy.
And, any poster who claims the GOP has been shown to be the “racist ones” either does not know history or is just a woke hack who claims racism when they don’t have an argument and hope they can bully their way out of a debate.
