    Okay well we’ve had three years without a strong man president and all we’ve gotten are higher interest rates and a letter telling us the economy is doing great. Not even an acknowledgement of the problem, let alone expressed interest in solving it, or a plan, or action.

    This is on the blues right now. They need to do something fast if you don’t want a strong man president.

      How’s unemployment right now? The debt is solely on the shoulders of someone downplaying issues from a crazy sickness. Telling them to just drink bleach. And then needing to try and save everything Since we couldn’t take it seriously early enough that we then had to bail ourselves out. And not even trickle down like reds like. But they actually had to feed everyone or the housing and well literally every commodities market was going to collapse. We gained 8 trillion dollars in debt last time a Republican was in office and the worst unemployment numbers since the great depression. Good thing someone came in behind and cleaned up the hot mess Republicans left us in.

        How does any of that prevent Biden from acknowledging that housing is expensive and a desire to incentivize housing construction for individual ownership?

        I’m not asking for the moon here. Silence on the matter is a very loud statement about keeping things the way they’re headed. They’ll get a rude referendum on that. No one will be happy with the outcome.

      We’re still recovering from the impact of a previous President who openly and regularly promoted a complete disregard for public safety during a literal pandemic.
