The irony is that Biden bore quite a few hallmarks of being a fascist, and yet…that’s who he and the other leftists supported.

Bidens trade deficit in December of 2024 was also 26 billion higher than this last December.

Trade deficits growing, oil going up in price
Let's take a look at underlying facts.

Through May of this year, the trade deficit was 47% larger compared to the same period in 2024. The 47% was artificially driven by a massive import surge in Q1 attempting to front-run anticipated tariffs. Though it increased the 2025 numbers, it's actually antithetical to the point you're trying to make.

Similarly, to close the year, gold traders worried that Trump plans to extend tariffs to gold. So they rushed to import bullion into the US (particularly into New York vaults) before tariffs could take effect. As with the Q1 front-running, it distorted the trade figures significantly.

Tariffs are actually doing exactly what they are supposed to do.

I’m good with $75/bbl WTI Crude. So it needs to rise another $9/bbl.

The US is a net exporter of petroleum so increasing oil prices help our trade #s.
