Yeah, but presidents getting blamed for (or benefiting from) macro conditions they didn't cause is not a phenomenon unique to Biden. It's just part of the gig.

It's just part of the gig. I agree that presidents get credit/blame for economic conditions all the time, regardless of their own impact. The difference is that one party tends to deflect all blame from their president no matter what while the other happily blames their own guy when things aren’t going well. That creates a rather large disparity in the world of politics. Edited April 5, 2022 by Starkiller Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

pat Posted April 5, 2022 Report Share Posted April 5, 2022 Inflation has been caused by high demand with limited supply. Prices are going up b/c there's not enough cars or houses or etc to go around. That's caused by idiotic covid policies, at this point at the state level. Republicans need to quit fucking around and get back to work. That means wearing masks and getting vaccinated.

Titans279 Posted April 5, 2022 Report Share Posted April 5, 2022 Not sure how they reconcile Manchin and Sinema’s conflicting views on the taxes part. I still doubt anything passes. I hate being right all the time! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
