Never should’ve been extended…yet Sleepy Joe not only extended it, he added more to it, and let folks live rent free even longer, when so many jobs were available…and then he tried to extend it even longer yet. Sleepy Joe created the avalanche and it hasn’t stopped rolling yet.

Nope. Because Trump was able to keep the peace with foreign leaders, hence no war. Putin has attacked for the second time while Sleepy Joes in office, hence war.

Holding the sitting President accountable for what happens while in office quickly went out of fashion when Biden exceeded Trump for number COVID deaths. Biden said of Trump during the 2020 campaign:

“You hear nothing else I say tonight, hear this: Anyone who’s responsible for not taking control, in fact… saying I take no responsibility initially, anyone who’s responsible for that many deaths should not remain as president of the United States of America,” Biden said.

Just like he thought the economy bouncing back was a slam dunk, Biden thought that COVID deaths would drop off to barely any, since he inherited three vaccines and all the new medical advances in treatments.

Biden already had his speeches written for his speeches in mid 2021, where he was going to brag on himself for "shutting down the virus" and claiming credit for the rebounding economy. But like everything else Biden has been an utter disaster.

The stimulus was all Trump. Trump was the one who upped the ante and called for the $2,000 direct payments in late December 2020 while still in office saying he wouldn't sign the $600 stimulus bill proposed by the House because it wasn't enough. The House seized the opportunity the next day and the bill passed. Biden had nothing to do with the passage of the direct stimulus checks. Biden's Build Back Better bill (which failed) would have made things a lot worse given the current labor and material shortages. The irony is that the infrastructure does need to be repaired and a recession may be the best time to get it done especially if material prices come back down to more realistic levels.

Lol. Biden’s last minute stimmy bribe and promises of free stuff right before the election were used for last minute votes, and then put an income limit on the stimmy. Truly priceless.

There was zero reason to extend the free stuff, add to it, and continue to let folks live rent free with so many jobs available. The Sleepy Joe economic plan wasn’t sustainable from the beginning and the consequences are skyrocketing Bidenflation the country hasn’t seen in decades. Hopefully those that voted for him are affected the most.

The problem is like in the late 2000's, early 2010's when we had another recession we had a similar issue with getting the Obama infrastructure bill passed. I do not get why politicans cannot get an infrastructure bill passed. Do they not see the states of bridges in America?

They gave us Covid to try to derail the economy and hurt Trump in the process. Now they ramped things up with Insurrection Joe and we're all getting ****ed. Except the most uber elite wealthy... and their politician toadies.
