    You claimed that inflation was between 5-7%.

    Which is wrong.

    Then you complain that 3.8% inflation is still too high.

    Which is the very definition of moving the goalpost.

    Is that what I claimed? You have trouble reading? Would it make you feel better if I said from May of 2021 to March of 2023, it was between 5-7%? Maybe said another way will help you understand, in Biden's entire Presidency, he only has hit the feds inflation target two months, you guessed it the first two months after he took over for Trump.

    Let's go Brandon.

    One last one to help you understand, one little gain the last few months doesn't overcome that massive orange line game years. upload_2024-4-22_8-57-18.png

    Great news for the entire Western world.

    All of a sudden even Trump supports it, leaving the pro-Russia Republicans look lie idiots.

    They have no interest in fixing it. Its too valuable as a campaign tool.

    There was aready a better bill passed by the House months ago. Schumer refuses to even consider in committee. Unfortunately the demented influence peddler in the WH owns the Dems and Schumer.

    They didn't need a single republican to pass, they had one that voted for it. Bottom line the democrats didn't pass it and a few on here doing their best to spin cycle this.

    One sided bills are designed to not pass, which is what happened.

    Not that is has anything to do with the topic of the thread.

    I think you're pretty low.

    At this level of argument, I consider you defeated.

    I'm sure you'll have the opportunity to get back on track on another subject.

    Math isn't hard, the Senate is 50-50 with a vp tiebreaker. If the left all voted for the bill it would have passed. In this specific case they had a republican vote to add to their total.

    HR2 was horseshit. The border patrol, you know, the folks rightists pretend to care about, fully support the bipartisan bill the Senate passed that mango told his cucks in the House not to vote on because he needs the border to be in its current state to help him garner votes.

    Again, there is no need for another bill, there is a perfect one not being utilized..

    Immigration Reform and Control Act of 1986 - Wikipedia

    We don't need redundancy, we just need to use the tools already in place..

    I don't care about Ukraine, I don't care about Gaza and I don't care about Israel. I care about my own country. I look at China's foreign policy in which they avoid wars and take over global trade and wish my country could have that.

    China will soon be the greatest manufacturing colossus to ever exist. It could end up being an order of magnitude greater than America at its peak. That will translate into HARD political power and they will force their will on the rest of the world just as America did when she was an empire. America's existential crisis is becoming a manufacturing juggernaut. Without that, everything is vaporware and the rest of the world will recognize and act upon the weakness. Taking out debt to fight wars of no American interest accomplishes nothing but weakening the long term prognosis of the American dollar. If that collapses, the entire house of cards will follow.

    The Republicans are worthless.

    Why don't rightists, who claim to support the border patrol, want the GOP house to pass the bill that they endorsed?

    The problem with fighting that, is convincing North Americans/Western Nations to pay more for their goods, or somehow forcing China and all the SE Asian countries that do the majority of the manufacturing these days to raise their peoples wages/benefits to match those of the North American workers.

    I'm not sure either will happen in our life times.

    And what bill would that be? The Senate’s bastardized bill that favors 5,000 illegals a day? Not going to happen.

    The senate didn't have a passed border bill, they couldn't get their own caucus on board then all the braindead minions blamed on the House when they never had anything to vote for.

    One vote does not make a bill bi-partisan. Schumer has sat on the better bill for almost 9 months and will not even bring it to committee.
