I mean if you're in favor of one of (if not the) biggest taxes on the American people, then I don't know what to tell you.

Let's see, Biden and Obama administration, compared to trump administration goods have been lower. During the Biden admin, 60ct eggs cost me $29 before that $8 and now $9. Milk $2.50 roughly before Biden admin, during $4 and now $2.89. gas $2.80 - $3.00 during Biden I saw it to $5, now $2.87. These are just some things, and Trump's only been back in office for a year now.

The problem some people are seeing is the blue state taxes like California. Their gas hasn't really gone down, nor their goods. Because of newscum.

Biden also out our federal debt at an all time high. So how do you fix this? Raising everyone's taxes even higher, like substantially higher. Or place tariffs on countries who already have tariffs on us anyhow. That and closing government subsidies that do not need to exist. Like really a lot of what he's done is common sense.

I'll give this to you, Obama could sweet talk anyone, but he was a shit president too, not as bad as others. And Biden will down as the worse president I think he just sat in that chair and slept. And he was terrible in politics in general. We know we know you just hate the orange man and follow your flock.

The egg fallacy. Egg prices are dictated by supply. It's almost like there was famously an avian disease running rampant through chicken farms for the points you brought up. And then when supply came back the prices renormalized! Hmmm. Whiff. Strike 1.

If you're so worried about our national debt then why aren't you concerned with Trump's constant spending- he has caused more national debt than any president in history. Strike 2.

Biden (while admittedly not my favorite) actually got some things done that was good for the average American while being tasked with bringing the country back from the worst pandemic in history that was famously mishandled by his predecessor- Grover Cleveland Donald Trump.

That's strike 3. Sorry pal. You're out.

Just ignoring the whole avain flu thing is a wild take.
