I did not argue that point. I claimed that Trump's dogshit economic policy was a major factor in today's inflation, but I understand that reading and logic don't come naturally to you. Trump made decisions that directly harmed the economy in the long run purely to make himself look better.
We cannot argue about environmental impact, it's a fact. The fact that you even suggest that it's arguable proves your own lack of intelligence, the same as you pretending I claimed Biden had no impact.
Deflection, ad hominem, deflection, ad hominem. Do you have any actual arguments?
You said, and I quote "Do you understand that the economy has momentum that takes years to fully manifest? We don't live in a command economy, lmao."
As soon as Biden came into office, he canceled the pipeline and put a moratorium on oil leases. Within a matter of months, prices started rising. Are you really saying those two things had nothing to do with each other, or that Trump was somehow to blame for this?
Plenty, but they appear to go over your head as you constantly dodge and pull whataboutisms.
Yes, I said that.
Trump isn't to blame for Biden's impact on gas prices. At the same time, Biden isn't to blame for the disastrous economic policy of Trump that caused massive inflation and instilled purely incompetent people into stations like the Supreme Court. Gas prices have trajectory, if you can recognize that Biden has had a negative impact on gas prices then surely you can understand that Trump royally fucked the economy, along with Social Programs and steered the US towards fascism.
I'm not a Biden Stan, I think he's a shitty lib. Shitty libs are better than incompetent fascists.
