Non sequitor..... Under the guise of "elightenment" we have taught a couple generations of kids to see racism where it does not exist, to look for it in everything..... this is a bad idea.

I don't understand.....

So the reporter did the standard leftist setup on Vivek, he called her out on it, and even predicted how she would misrepresent him.....and the focking moron STILL did it.....

When you are taught to look for it everywhere, you will find it in everything. How miserable must these people be?

Not dumb at all. If a Republican were in office, they would blame the last Democrat. This is how the game is played. What WE should be doing is never believing them, at all......they will lie like this.....so lets stop pretending its anything real.

I am less amused. I think the perversion of our systems is a recipe for disaster eventually as each side is either trying to out-do the other, or sacrifices good sense to pursue power. We should collectively abhor it....but people have lost their sense of citizenship, they instead suckle at the teat of a political party. Too many have abandoned reason and decency to instead defend powerful people.....its a despicable place we find ourselves

I have been a vocal critic of the fed going back to the 90's, here on this forearm. In fact I predicted the early 2000's crash and also how and why it would happen, which at the time brought considerable consternation from folks here.....who chided me as being stupid and such, only to of course be proven right. I predicted the Lehman collapse as well as Bear Sterns.... I held the Fed in contempt for most of my life. That being said, I have applauded them over the last year in how they have fought this inflation. I was waiting for them to make that mistake, and so far I feel they have done well. Later, this year, they will cave to political pressure. They will stop serving US and instead serve the desire of a political party to hold power. That is a shame. And in the end it hurts the common person.

Gavin Newsom's Problems May Be About To Get Worse The lack of economic acumen among Democrats is remarkable. I think they do not understand that their pandering to people has consequences. This is a great way to accelerate people leaving that state. The only problem I have with this is that among those leaving the state are the focking idiots that voted people like him in to office. I would prefer they remain in the sh!thole they are creating rather than pollute other areas being properly lead.

Take him down, what do I care about Jared Kushner....hell, take down the entire Trump family...knock your socks off, champ Once that is done, we have all the precedent we need....to go after the other criminals in power.

But here is the fun part, there is no real reason to lower rates. But as we sit here, we already know they will do it. And we know why. Its a game.... And later, of course, the powers that be will pretend this is some indication of their prowess and proof of their policies being good....when its not.... but people will eat that sh!t up.... So you have manipulative liars in power, abusing the stupid....and the stupid love them for it..... like an abusive relationship.....its odd

This is a gift. If Democrats think playing tit-for-tat on this one is a good idea, they are even more dumb than I thought.....they are setting their guy up.....hilarious....

We all know that even if its a low % we can pretend its a problem, not our rules

It might be. I would prefer they stick to working the problem and not be politically manipulated, but I also understand that is how the game is played. There is an awful lot of excess to be wrung out of the economy, they need to be careful.

I already predicted this, you might find it over in the Biden thread though. I predicted this as well as some stuff around the border too. He will pretend to be doing something, when in reality he is doing nothing appreciable. Its a tactic. He would not be the first to do something like this. And he already showed his inclination when he did the student loan thing to buy the youth vote as well.

Dopes eh? Perhaps you are correct. It would explain many of his other failures.

Hold on....I thought if you didn't vote for Biden you weren't black, is he now expanding?

Of course. You need not reply if you prefer not to. I will await anyone who can perhaps answer why it might be that Biden has steadfastly not made the same assertions you have here. I would think that would help him with regard to the perception about his economic prowess. How odd that he never tries to do so......notably given his propensity to blame others for every other thing....

Agree. Everything about Liberalism is now racist at its core. They embrace it. They still come up with really sinister justifications as well, just as they always have. Their policies are pointedly harmful to historically disenfranchised communities.

He DID impact prices. Just as when any other nation impacts prices when they also move to restrict. Supply and demand remains influential, and globally so. It is not useful to pretend otherwise. To pretend such a notion might lead to inflation. But my question remains. If what you assert is true, then we can infer two things. 1) Biden did not know that Trump should be blamed, and did not even try to blame him.....even though in every other instance.....he DID blame him....which is odd. OR 2) Biden understood his policies were fomenting inflation. Now, with regard to the latter.....his may have been influenced by the array of economists and others who told him that his policies would result in inflation. I think Joe Manchin did him a huge favor when he effectively blocked Biden from throwing more gas on the fire, Biden owes that man a thank you.

I might suggest he would have done what he has done in every other instance, blame Trump or "MAGA-something". A behavior which is also not unique to Biden, but is part and parcel of pretty much every President.....blame the other guy. But he did not do that, and I find that curious. It could be that when he announced his intended actions against energy companies, resulting in speculators driving up prices, and the footprint of that action impacting everything in our lives that the resulting inflation was something he anticipated people would naturally attribute to him. In reality he should have done the normal blaming game.....but he didnt..... Instead he simply pretending it wasnt happening. How odd...... Every President spends, and every congress spends, regardless of their political affiliation, they are politicians...they lie....once they get power they spend....hence a multi-trillion dollar deficit. What was unique here was the act to not blame where he reasonably could have. Later he would admit it, then call it transitory...."transitory". He did not point to Trump, but instead moved to defend himself and his policies by trying to soften it......he gave up pretending it wasnt real, and started pretending it was temporary....until he could no longer float that lie.....

Let's assume, for the moment, you are correct. Inflation is some result of Trump..... Why didn't Biden say as much as it was happening? Why did he instead pretend it was not happening at all? And do so for months, until he could no longer use that lie? All along, never once noting Trump?

Spot on. Instead of fighting for each other, people seem inclined to fight for their Party over all else....we need to stop that.

I think a rational person, one not polluted by political ideology, is able to understand what the Biden family did. They are clearly criminal. The only real question left is what they traded for that money. I am not at all confident they will be able to unravel that, but I sincerely hope they do. And I then also hope JB dies in prison.

A reasonable position to hold.
