I'm not aware of the inflation numbers in Asia, but in Europe and the US inflation is driven by:
- QE
- The central banks keeping interest rates too low, for too long
- Energy (more on that later)
- Government spending
So you can see that the US and Europe have a lot in common, however the US was perfectly capable to handle this differently with superior results:
- The US could control it's own energy policy without having to beg OPEC+, Venezuela and Iran for oil. The price of oil is reflected everywhere since pretty much everything needs to be transported. The Biden admin pretty much brought domestic oil production expansion to a stop
- Spending: the Biden admin passed too many bills spending money like drunken sailors. As you can imagine, money needs to be printed and the more money is out there, the less it's worth.
So yes, if we would have had a Trump administration I firmly believe we would have some sort of inflation rate but nowhere near the 9% currently.
Wow! Now it turns out that after his stroke Fetterman went to a campaign donor to write a vague medical report. This gives the word crook and corruption a new meaning. Is this how he will govern as a U.S. Senator?
Hilarious assessment by a Fetterman/Dem donor, and if one didn’t know better by listening to and watching Fetterman trying to comprehend, one would wonder how Chen’s speech is if thinks Fetterman’s is normal, and his communication has significantly improved, lol

I think the problem with Fettermna isn't so much the health issue as that he was a novelty candidate. Basically Lurch runs for Senate and had the progressive wing of the Democratic party fully behind him as Lamb is a moderate and the guy from Philly was not viable. Once you put him in the general election people have to wonder if they really want to vote for Lurch and you are stuck with a candidate who has to make inroads outside of Philly and Pittsburgh when he was far left in the Primary. Mandala Barnes is WI is in the same predicament with no health issues.
Just think if FDR in 1944, Eisenhower in 1956, or Kennedy in 1960 would've been pressured to turn over their medical records.
if they had a stroke that prevents them from speaking properly and understanding communication and they paid off one of their campaign donors to make a fake medical report to the public, you damn right the PARTY would demand their medical record and replace them, let alone the public.
