Fact

They never can.

I have noticed that many longtime friends have taken a strange political turn. I wonder if their perspectives are polluted by left-leaning women in their lives.

The last time you shared these statistics, I corrected you. Please see the attached screenshot for clarification. The no sex ever is represented by the dark blue line.

Why did this take so long?

Aseanholes.

COVID was slowing down as he came into office. Over the four years of President Biden’s term – from January 2021 through January 2025 – we estimate that he approved $4.7 trillion in new ten-year debt through legislation and executive actions. https://www.crfb.org/blogs/how-much-did-president-biden-add-debt This was in addition to the existing budget deficit. Also, Joe Biden's spending after COVID added an estimated 4% to inflation, according to The Economist. https://www.economist.com/leaders/2023/05/11/joe-biden-is-more-responsible-for-high-inflation-than-for-abundant-jobs You can sign up and read the article for free.

President Joe Biden added approximately $8.4 trillion to the national debt during his four-year term, with the debt rising from $27.8 trillion in January 2021 to $36.2 trillion by January 2025. Any comments on his ^^^^

A significant portion of that was due to the COVID pandemic. Additionally, all spending initiatives began in the House under the Democrats.

I don't understand why the left is reacting so strongly to this.

It's binary. If my team does it, it's good. If your team does it bad.

Are tariffs good or bad?

No.

According to the left, there is a king who is suppressing all forms of protest. These brave protesters are risking their lives today to stand up against the king. They deserve to receive the Medal of Freedom for their courage.

How about this: If you want to talk about the King's like power, you need to point fingers at Congess. Congress has delegated the power of tariffs to the executive branch. Congress loves to delegate powers to the executive branch. You will never see the left talk about restoring the powers and restoring the balance between the executive branch and the legislative branch. The reality is, they are OK with their guy having king-like powers. This imbalance of power has been happening since FDR.

Ironically, leftist policies have contributed to the overwhelming student loan debt.

This is not my only post in this thread. Read the rest.

Instead of taking shots at posters, why not add some substance to the discussion?

I agree, the left is nasty.

Per AN rules, I'll be waiting for you to add the proper link to your post.

I noticed the left's absence in protesting Joe Biden's tariffs. Speaking of Kings, I missed the left protesting Obama's extrajudicial killings. One note for @Tug, if you want to discuss the king-like powers of the executive branch, you need to look at Congress. Congress has delegated its authority to impose tariffs to the executive branch, and this trend of delegating power has been a common practice. You will never hear the left advocate for restoring the powers and balance between the executive and legislative branches. The reality is that they are comfortable with their preferred leader wielding these king-like powers. This imbalance of power has been occurring since the time of FDR.

What are you taking about?

I noticed the link was missing in your post. Please add it from a reliable source.

It was all rigged. Stop pretending that the Democrats believe in democracy.

Except there has never been a genocide.

I know you are.
