Trump blamed his predecessor, saying that under former President Joe Biden "inflation was the worst in 48 years, and some would say in the history of our country.” Inflation was worst under Biden in June 2022 when it hit 9.1%, though the largest inflation rate in U.S. history was 23.7% in 1920.
Oh. Okay. Let's quibble over the fact that the last time inflation was as bad as Joe Biden*'s destruction of the US economy came when less than 1% of 1% of 1% of currently living Americans were even born.
Shut the fuck up.
Quote:
When Biden left office and Trump was inaugurated for his second term, inflation was at 3%. The most recent numbers issued in September 2025 showed inflation still sitting at 3%.
Yeah. All the damage had already been done, long before Trump came back.
Thank you for confirming what we all already knew.
I love how all of you braindead retards have been forced to admit how bad Joe Biden* was for the economy in 2025 after 4 straight years of pretending that there wasn't any inflation.
Shut the fuck up.

Quote:6ixStringJoker, how can you NOT understand something so simple as how prices are set? The wages paid to workers are NOT set by workers in the US. The price workers pay for what they buy is also NOT set by workers. Who do you think sets wages/prices if NOT the poorest? It is the richest, not some imaginary invisible hand of the marketplace.

Trump refused to veto any congressional spending and added $7.8 trillion to the nation debt. Then the people who set prices raised prices to take all that unpaid tax money away from poorer people:

e+during+Trump%27s+term
How much did Biden increase the National debt? Half as much as Trump. If only Biden could have undone Trump’s tax cuts, the debt would be even smaller. Again, the people who set prices raised prices to take all that money back:

All of Trump’s tax cuts were set to expire after 10 years, but instead of letting the tax cuts expire, Trump passed a new law to keep them in place. In time, the people who set prices will once again raise prices to take all that money back from poor people. There will be a new burst of price inflation to match older bursts:

Quote:6ixStringJoker, you flunked out of college. That is possibly because you cannot understand ideas that take more than 100 words to explain. Trump knows your limitations and never goes beyond them, but Paul Krugman always pushes beyond your 100-word limit, which makes you angry at him. Also, any bar graph will go beyond 6ixStringJoker's limitations. This story has two bar graphs, causing 6ix to be discombobulated:

What MAGA genius thought that Trump’s “affordability” speech was a good idea?
By Paul Krugman | Dec 19, 2025
https://paulkrugman.substack.com/p/lies-damned-lies-and-trump-speeches
Healthcare is an area where policy has a huge effect on affordability. It’s also an area in which Trump talked utter nonsense.
Here’s what you should know: The Affordable Care Act, aka Obamacare, offers Americans who aren’t covered by Medicare, Medicaid or through their employers the ability to purchase insurance coverage from private insurers, with the federal government subsidizing most enrollees’ premiums. However, enhanced subsidies put in place under the Biden administration will expire on January 1st, 2026, leading to large cost increases for many families.
Costs will soar for two reasons. There’s the direct effect of losing subsidies. But there’s also an indirect effect, because the loss of subsidies will lead millions of people to drop their coverage — and those who drop coverage will, on average, be healthier than those who don’t, worsening the risk pool. Insurers, anticipating this effect, have already sharply raised premiums.
Charts from KFF show the effects on some representative couples. More than 20 million would be affected, but the worst hit will be older, moderately well-off Americans who are earning just a bit too much to remain eligible for subsidies. For example, a 60-year-old couple with an income of $85,000 will face a premium hike equal to more than a quarter of their pre-tax income:
Source: https://www.kff.org/affordable-care-act/aca-marketplace-premium-paymen
ts-would-more-than-double-on-average-next-year-if-enhanced-premium-tax-credits-expire/
What should the Trump Administration do? Here’s Trump:
“I’m also taking on the gigantic health insurance companies that have gotten rich on billions of dollars of money that should go directly to the people. The money should go to the people. That’s you, so they can buy their own health insurance, which will give far better benefits at much lower costs.”
So Trump says that he’ll replace the current system, in which people buy their own health insurance with the aid of government subsidies, with a system in which the government gives people money they can use to buy their own health insurance. How is that different? In fact, it isn’t different except for one devastating detail: Republicans in Congress will never approve subsidies adequate to make health insurance affordable. Because the Republican plan would be far stingier than the one currently in place, millions of people will be forced to drop their insurance. And as I said, because it’s the younger and relatively more healthy that will drop their coverage, the pool of those who keep their coverage will be older and sicker. And you know what happens next – premiums go up even further. No wonder that four Republican congressmen in purple districts defied Mike Johnson and voted to extend the Obamacare subsidies.

I aced English. Reading and comprehension aren't any problems of mine, nor is critical thinking. You know this just as well as I do.
You and Ted, however, can barely read and have even a looser grip on writing.
This is why it's so easy for me to tell when you've plagiarized somebody else's work, and why I've caught you doing it so, so many times.
You and Ted are retarded.
Look all around you, my dude. They give plenty of college degrees to retards.

I'm no supporter of Donald Trump, but I'll give him this: he's held up a mirror to society and shown us exactly who among us harbors hatred, bigotry, and self-interest above all else. I never knew there were so many evil people living among us.

How Epstein and Trump bonded over the pursuit of women
The two men’s relationship was both far closer and far more complex than the president now admits.
https://www.sltrib.com/news/nation-world/2025/12/19/how-epstein-trump-
bonded-over/
Tina Davis, who modeled for Ford in the mid-1990s, said in an interview that her Ford booker instructed her to get dressed up and attend a Mar-a-Lago party in late 1994. Just 14 and new to Miami, she was told to “dress sexy,” according to her mother, Sandra Coleman, who had accompanied her to Florida. Eight or nine other models came along on the bus. “All the girls were really young,” Ms. Coleman recalled in an interview. “Some of them could have been in training bras."
When they arrived at Mar-a-Lago, Ms. Coleman said, her daughter was promptly handed a glass of champagne. She took it away, but waiters kept offering more. Each time one of the middle-aged men at the party approached her daughter, Ms. Coleman would walk over and introduce herself as Ms. Davis’s mother.
During a trip to the bathroom, they ran into Mr. Trump’s new wife, whom they had met earlier. Ms. Maples clasped her hands, Ms. Coleman recalled, and looked her in the eye. “Whatever you do, do not let her around any of these men, and especially my husband,” she told Ms. Coleman. “Protect her.”

We've been telling you about your problem for years.
Glad you're finally coming to terms with it.
Your party is dead. Your ideology is dead. We're shipping everyone back home.
You lose forever, loser.
Congratulations.
And save your Epstein bullshit.
You haven't even looked through those photos yet, have you?

Donald Trump promised a new ‘golden age’ for the US economy. Where is it?
Most Americans have yet to see this boom – but they’ve certainly heard a lot about it from the president
By Callum Jones, Andrew Witherspoon and Aliya Uteuova
Sat 20 Dec 2025 05.00 EST
https://www.theguardian.com/business/2025/dec/20/trump-us-economy
Moments into his second term, opening his inaugural address, Donald Trump was unequivocal. “The golden age of America begins right now,” he declared.
At a White House reception last weekend, a little over 10 months later, the US president appeared to acknowledge just how far his timeline had shifted.
“We’re going to have … I say it’s the golden age of America,” Trump told his audience. “We have an age that’s coming up, the likes of which … this country has never seen. And I just look so forward to the results. You’re going to see results in six months to a year.”
The US economy has come under pressure in 2025. A golden age did not promptly take hold, as Trump initially claimed, upon his return to office in January.
On two areas the president pledged to rapidly improve – jobs and prices – the results have so far been lackluster.
The labor market started the year steady. It had slowed, but still managed to expand by an average of 168,000 jobs each month, in 2024.
During his joint address to Congress in March, however, Trump claimed to have inherited an “economic catastrophe” from Joe Biden’s administration, and vowed to create jobs “like we have never seen before”.
A new ‘golden age’
Jobs growth has, in fact, stalled in 2025 – with an average of 55,000 jobs added each month, according to official data for the first 11 months of the year, down 67% on 2024.
The headline unemployment rate, which fluctuated between 3.9% and 4.2% in the last year of Biden’s presidency, has climbed under Trump to 4.6% – its highest level in more than four years – in November.
On the campaign trail last year, Trump promised a “new American industrialism” on his watch, through which the US would become a “manufacturing powerhouse” once again, with a resurgence in factory jobs.
In reality, manufacturing employment has not increased this year. The US economy has so far added factory jobs in just two of 10 months after Trump’s return to office.
Realizing this distant dream of an industrial renaissance, according to the White House, will require ramping up the president’s flagship economic policy: tariffs.
And Trump has moved to do just that, hiking the overall average effective US tariff rate from 2.4% to 16.8%, the highest level since 1935, according to analysis by the Budget Lab at Yale.
The rollout of higher tariffs has been erratic and marred by uncertain deadlines, delays and reversals. The process has been “more painful than I expected”, Trump’s chief of staff Susie Wiles conceded to Vanity Fair.
‘Nobody can believe what’s going on’
For all the pain this agenda has caused inside the White House, economists have repeatedly warned of a potentially stark impact on millions of Americans. Tariffs on goods from overseas, often passed along by the businesses that pay them, can lead to higher prices on store shelves.
Officials and policymakers inside the Federal Reserve have spent months considering whether the ultimate effect of Trump’s tariffs will be a one-time jolt to prices, or something more lasting.
Inflation surged to its highest level in a generation in 2022 as the Covid-19 pandemic unleashed a series of supply and demand shocks on the world economy. By last year, however, the US consumer price index (CPI) was falling back down towards typical levels – and continued to do so during the early months of 2025.
By Trump’s telling, though, his administration inherited an “inflation nightmare” from Biden, which he vowed to turn around. In a primetime TV address on Wednesday, he declared: “I am bringing those high prices down and bringing them down very fast.”
But CPI has held firm since the spring. In November, it rose by an annual rate of 2.7%, according t
