CNN probably... "Barack Obama's financial policy beginning to take shape despite Trump's work to destroy it."

That’s some dumb shite, unless you’re comparing eating out at Taco Bell and Burger King vs cooking filets or sea bass at home.

Just nonsense.

After the COVID recovery in 2021, Biden’s economic growth never got above 3.5%. Trumps Q2 and Q3 numbers this year are higher than anything Biden achieved after 2021.

it's about $38 for our family of 3 to eat at chikfila... if we grocery shop for supper, it's about the same.


WTF? I can cook a chicken & sausage gumbo for way less than $38. Hell, I can buy enough US Atlantic salmon at my local HEB to cook with green beans for four of us for way less than $38.

To be fair, we shop mostly at Publix for meat, produce and cold items... and we really, really like beef.

Yeah, you can buy a whole chicken for $8, and still have $30 left for whatever else you wanna eat.

People will convince themselves of anything just to take the easier route.

Or is this diffe(R)ent? I think it's diffe(R)ent.


I don't think the Biden economy ever reached 4.3% or anywhere close, even post Covid "recovery" where it should have been easier to attain. Do you have proof otherwise?

Not sure how many here have worked with cows, but when a prolapse happens during birth it's not a pretty sight.

This shows 7% in Q2 of 2021, if it’s comparing the same stat as the article.

However, yeah…coming out of the government forced COVID shutdowns, there was nowhere to go but up. And rapidly.
