President Biden-trump

Last edited Thu May 19, 2022, 02:03 AM - Edit history (1)

I just got off the telephone with someone who swore that if the EU and President Biden had handled the Russian invasion more responsibly we could be enjoying pre-pukin-Ukraine gasoline prices today. I asked my associate how blind could they be. The loser ex-Potus caused this because he was looking only for dirt on President Biden and his son every other threat to Ukraine was a distant second with Pukin advising trump on his foreign policy.

And if anyone here has ANY influence over our MSM, can we have an equitable accounting.

my question-who is responsible?

profits. They gouge and gouge and gouge. But that's the American way...right? Predatory capitalism is straight out of our pockets-budgets even if we can't handle it straight into their coffers. They NEVER give us a break. They have been making record profits since the 70s. You can't tell me they can't spread the pain to help up by eating some of their losses.

EVERYTHING cost more when fuel costs more. You don't need any more economics knowledge than that to explain this bout of inflation. What political party do you think these big oil CEOs belong to? Do you think it's to their benefit for Biden to lose popularity while Trump still looms?

do not believe trump is responsible for the current rise in fuel costs...actually, this poll was to try and get someone to ask the media for more fair play if they have an in. I am getting sick of both siderism and just plain unfair coverage of President Biden in all of our MSM since he's been in office. Trump was fawned over by our MSM for 3 years and this with knowing what kind of low life human being trump was/is. President Biden inherited an awful mess. He is still cleaning the house. The literal and figurative shit on the walls from the disgrace that trump and his grifter family are to whoever smeared faeces on the walls of the Capitol Building are one in the same fascist under the cover name republikkkan party.

So yeah water is wet, geese fly south every winter yet water can drown one. Look at what happened to 5 murdered and 105 injured in the coup attempt 1/6/22.

So snark...who needs it. Not all are as astute as you are..."derp"

Its cause is Putin's territorial aspirations over the Ukraine. Not everything begins and ends with US.

FU. It had the US as the player in being most responsible for the Ukraine-Russia War in so far as emboldening Pukin. And the trump administration was solely responsible for Pukin feeling he could invade without consequence. The ground war may have started during the present administration, but the war was set in motion by Pukin and trump. NO DOUBTS here.
