Include yourself with the “tiny-brained folks” as for 4 years you blamed Trump for everything and anything!
Nope. Never did! That's a lie. I blamed him for the things he actually did and failed to do.
No need to lie to defend your orange hero.

Just the highest inflation in 40 years, now that is something to hang your hat on!
Considered in isolation, yes, not a good thing. But it's happening in conjunction with unprecedented wage growth, a big surge in jobs, and overall strong economic growth. Aren't those things always super-important to conservatives?
That wage growth, by the way, is real wages, which means adjusted for inflation. So even with the current higher prices, people are able to buy more stuff--which is fueling the current increase in economic output. Call me a radical liberal commie pinko socialist snowflake, but I view people being able to afford more goods and services as a good thing.
Those who lack sophistication--which is, certainly, a great majority of the population--focus only on what they don't like (higher prices) and ignore what comes with that (a booming economy). Economics is a complex subject and doesn't lend itself to simplistic thinking.
You are so full of shit.

Uh huh. Yet, you're unable to actually argue against anything I say or have said.

Toxic kevin wrong (lies) again.
On Friday, the Bureau of Labor Statistics announced that consumer price inflation has reached a 6.8% rate — the largest year-over-year increase since June 1982, as well as the sixth straight month in which inflation has remained above 5%. The agency also revealed that “real average hourly earnings” — which consider the impact of inflation upon purchasing power — fell by 0.4% between October and November. Though nominal average hourly earnings rose by 0.3%, the effects were overshadowed by a 0.8% increase in consumer prices.
a big surge in jobs
We have less people working now than 2 years ago; so there is no surge in jobs.
We have the most job openings of anytime in history - and the lowest unemployment rate in 50 years.
Nevermind, Republicans dont want to allow immigrants to come into AMerica and fill those jobs.....geniuses like Tom want to round up 10 million dishwashers, hotel maids, and farm workers and send them out of the country despite the fact their employers are starving for more labor - not less.
What do you say to people who bitch about unfilled jobs while also bitching about the people who could fill them?
Dont say anything. Just point and laugh.
To be considered employed is a person working 1 day a month & only includes people who are actively looking for work. The unemployment rate is not the best gauge.
More importantly we have less people working than 2 years ago & the job participation rate is dropping.

Republicans are not against LEGAL immigration but against ILLEGAL immigration; a HUGE difference.
Somehow PJ thinks all the unfilled jobs are dishwashers & farmers. Not sure where he gets this info.
In addition to the 2 million+ illegals from countries all over the world are criminals, illegal drugs (fentanol & meth seizures are at record highs).

Uhhhh...stupid Tommie-poo..."jobs" refers to employment opportunities--whether those opportunties are actually being filled or not. Idiot.

Remember, PJ, for conservitards, race hatred trumps all other considerations--even their worship of the almighty dollar.

I assume folks here don't ever click on videos that don't show the source or basic information, so I thought I would be helpful here in describing the economy of the last year. For all presidents in the last 50 years, Biden's economy is:
Gross Domestic Product - first
Corporate profit growth - first
S&P performance - only second
Consumer credit - first
Non-farm payrolls - only second
Manufacturing jobs - only second
Business productivity - only second
Dollar appreciation - only second
Added 7 million jobs in a year - never been done before
Now you don't have to click on any videos!
And yet his poll numbers keep dropping, why?
