Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

Trump was already president and it was the best 4 years for Americans. Everything started to suck when Biden became president and Trump warned us that this would happen. Prices for everything inflated homes are only for huge corps to purchase yeah great great administration. They were better under trump and thats a fact. I’m not looking to make history with a women president I’m looking to make money for my future self and family.
This take is so incredibly bad I'm almost thinking that you're a troll. "Everything was good under Trump 😊" -> "Everything was bad under Biden 😡" therefore Trump good, Biden bad is probably the most juvenile and pathetic logical fallacy that persists in our shared political thought. I'm not sure if you remember, but there was a little thing called COVID that happened which shocked supply lines, trade, took a huge toll on our collective mental health, and created an economic crisis. Acting like Biden caused that is so ridiculous, I have a hard time believing that even you believe that.
You could argue that Biden handled the recovery poorly (and I don't think that's a bad argument), but then you'd have to compare it with how Trump would have handled such a recovery -- something we really don't know. Given his contempt for the working class it is doubtful it would be any better, and there was plenty of room for it to be actively worse.
Im going by past experience and the Trump administration was better for the American people. Shit sucks right now and it will continue this way with the current administration.
Are you completely sure ? Why is Elmo endorsing Trump? Aint he a big corp fraternity member? Has he still paid the pledge members who signed it?
The 'everything started to suck' came with COVID, not with a presidential administration. To the extent that inflation and everything ultimately got away from us, that started mostly under Trump's watch, but even then I don't think I can blame Trump for the bad economy stuff, except maybe the degree to which he escalated trade war with China, but Biden has been happy to continue it. I don't see Trump or the GOP willing to go against those huge corps for the sake of the common man, generally I see quite the opposite.
We cant tell the future, Im going by the past and what I experienced during the Trump administration.
In the kind of world you're trying to usher in, your money isn't going to save you.
They have you believing that trump will be like a putin. This isn't Russia!
Who is "they"? I'm coming to my own conclusions.
