(21,385 posts)Inflation PEAKED on Donny's watch in 2020. And you completely forgot about Medicare now being able to negotiate drug prices. The CHIPS bill and on and on. Oh, but you're worried about the price of fucking eggs.
This is a matter of messaging and attitude. It's a failure in leadership on our part. Leadership means having the strength to kick the other guys in the fucking balls when necessary. To not hold back because you want to seem all statesmanlike or something. To lead no matter how it looks to the press or anyone else.
The message should be....the pain you're feeling is because Donny fucked up Covid and we're still cleaning up the goddamn mess. The pain you're feeling is Wall Street finding a cash cow in rental property and Republicans not letting us do a goddamn about it. The pain your feeling is because Repukes love all that shit, get paid to advocate and protect it and won't allow Dems to fix it. Just be painfully, bluntly honest. Stop voting Repuke, stop fucking yourself and let us fix the problems. That's the message. Our political ancestors were far better at messaging than the current crop. We need to get our sand back. Not get all mealy mouthed about the price of fucking eggs or have memory lapses as your apparently are.
