    I'm good with that.

    Core CPI was 2%

    You've elected a 34-times convicted felon, thief of national secrets,
    adulterer and liar...

    ...you don't get to talk about any other countries leaders.

    How's that promise to bring prices down "really fast" looking now that
    he's admitting it probably won't happen?

    Or the promise to end the war in Ukraine even before taking office?

    Shall I go on?

    How do your rants address Canadian issues? They don't. This is yet
    another of your thousands of answer-deficient SMTP post deflections. You
    are am empty suit.

    Biden pardoned his son who committed tax fraud, and the rest of the
    family who likely benefited from his selling access to VP Biden. Had
    those tax and all the associated bank account records ever been made public...oh how I wish. Not to mention that Biden was excused from his
    own confidential records violations because he was a confused old man.

    And Trump pardoned:

    Steve Bannon

    Charles Kushner

    Roger Stone

    Paul J. Manafort

    George Papadopoulos

    Michael T. Flynn

    And those are just the highlights.

    "In his last full day in office, Trump granted 143 pardons and commutations"

    Hunter also owned numerous overseas accounts where the ill-gotten gains
    he did not spend on drugs and prostitutes went.

    Cite for those accounts, and do you want to talk about the billions
    Jared Kushner got?

    Yes, the Mac was his.

    The Mac might have been...

    ...but that doesn't mean that all the contents of it were?

    No. It does not.

    Or don't you understand how computers work at all?


    In his last days as president Joe declared the ERA Amendment as part of
    the Constitution even though Congress had never extended the state
    approval deadline that was in the bill that started the process. How is
    that "upholding the Constitution" pledge he made? It's not, it was an
    attempt to circumvent the Constitution. That's impeachable.

    You mean like Trump's promise to end birthright citizenship?


    Harris is even more of an empty suit than you. She slept her way into politics. She had no answers when asked about her positions on issues.
    She stated she was OK on the Biden record when 70% of voters said they
    were not happy with the direction of the country under Biden. When she
    ran for president against Biden she was one of the first to drop out.
    WTF were the Dems thinking when they selected her as VP candidate.

    Trump is the empty suit, asshole.

    He's a fraud and he's always BEEN a fraud and a con artist.


    I think I know. Biden was seen as a 1 term placeholder who with a
    minority female VP had an election chance. That in fact worked. Then
    Biden decided to run again. Then came the debate where he fell apart. It
    was too late to re-do the primaries when he dropped out. A dumpster fire
    if there ever was one.

    A more credible Dem could have galvanized the Democratic base and Independents, and easily defeated Trump. A total shit-show.

    To your point, we citizens of the USA deserved a better choice than Trump/Harris. The whole candidate selection process is a potential
    dumpster fire. I fear for us.
    But you voted for the convicted felon...

    ...right?

    Assholes are usually "good with" being assholes.

    That's one of the things that makes them assholes.

    Whereas the above notes that the promise is a CPI of 0.1%/year

    Of course, the promise made back in August was even lower:

    “From the day I take the oath of office, we’ll rapidly drive
    prices down and make America affordable again. Prices will
    come down. You just watch. They’ll come down fast.”

    And last month:

    'Trump was asked if his presidency would be considered a "failure" if he
    didn't deliver on his promise to slash Americans' food bills.

    "I don't think so. Look, they got them up," referring to the
    Biden-Harris administration. "I'd like to bring them down. It's hard to
    bring things down once they're up. You know, it's very hard," Trump said.'
