This comment will start and finish on point with the subject.

A faithful mega fan came into my workplace yesterday. And made some very accurate accusations for his positions as a Trump fan. He nailed it.

He blamed Biden and Obama for the high prices of gas.

He blamed Biden and Obama for the high price of groceries.

for the tariffs.

He blamed Biden and Obama because other countries have been ripping us off over tariffs.

He then kept rolling Newsome into the excuses.

But I asked him the same question I ask others who say the same thing: How much has Canada been underpaying, what were they underpaying. And who is credible to determine they have been underpaying? He did what other deniers does. Moved off the subject by blaming Biden and Obama but without an answer to my question.

His wife kept chewing on his ass for every excuse he made. And he kept saying: It will take time for Trump’s strategies to work. For which I told him: The price increases are happening instantaneously. He kept saying: Give Trump time.

Trump fans. If you hold Biden and Obama accountable for high gas prices; then what do you think they can do to bring them down? Do you think Trump can do anything?

When will you join economists and 80% of the population to jump off the sinking ship?

You would likely be among the first in line to hold President Trump accountable if Iran announced they had one or more atomic weapons. After 47 years of threats and warfare directed at the United States by Iran, demolishing the Iranian theocracy, IRGC, and the Basij forces is the right and proper thing to do. President Carter could have ended the Shia psychopaths and their propensity for kidnapping & killing Americans, but he failed to act. Likewise, all seven subsequent presidents kicked the can of confrontation down the road in favor of appeasement, weakness, payoffs, and timid flexing over the span of their eleven 4-year presidential terms, including Trump in his first term. Consequently, Iran exported its version of Islamic revolution & terror, fomenting proxy wars and normalizing death-cult zealotry throughout the Middle East. Iran has solidly demonstrated they do not fit in the modern model of a mostly functional family of nations. The Persian people deserve a better government, economy and civil society. They deserve liberation from death-cult autocrats and fanatic military strongmen. They deserve sane representative self-government focused on Persian prosperity and quality of life, not rule by zealous madmen determined to possess and use the ultimate weapons of mass destruction.
