    Him and Biden had one thing in common... inflation. Under Jimmy it went from 5% to 13% and Joe-matose it went from 1.4% to 9.1%
    Not an expert on why inflation hit so hard during the Carter years, my best guess was the oil shortage? But it doesn't take an economics genius to realize why Biden's presidency was hit so hard, and it wasn't his fault, same thing would have happened if Trump were the POTUS the last 4 years, in fact, when comparing with other industrialized nations, inflation didn't hit as hard in the US. Just gotta be unbiased, I'm no fan of either Biden nor Trump but I'll tell you one thing, if Trump goes ahead with his little tariffs war, be prepared for even worse inflation rates the next few years.

    Excessive lockdowns also happened in China, and the US depends on a lot of products coming from China, inflation was gonna happen, no two ways about it.

    Biden says FU to Trump's request to have flags restored to full mast for his inauguration.
