      Do you exist purely in the present with no knowledge of how past actions create future problems?

        I legitimately don’t think they do. Hence why when Trump got elected they said he was fixing the economy day one… because it was going up… from the things Obama did…

        They really can’t grasp that it’s not always who is president on that date. Or that somethings aren’t caused by them.

          Are you saying Biden caused the war in Ukraine and Trump caused $2 gas, without causing $3-4 gas today?

          Do you understand that the economy has momentum that takes years to fully manifest? We don’t live in a command economy, lmao.

              Holy shit you’re legitimately a lunatic, to be referencing fucking WE as a source.

              Either way, nothing you’ve pointed to means Trump’s terrible economic choices for short term gains and long term disaster didn’t also impact gas prices, or even the majority of the impact.

              Please, keep consuming anti-science brainrot and continue to persist in your white-supremacist echo chamber. I’m sure one day you’ll hate your way into happiness!

                  Sure, he did one thing that likely did impact gas prices. That does not in any way mean that Trump’s fucking terrible economic policy isn’t a thing. It’s anti-science to deny climate change, which the WE does.

                  I never made the point that it didn’t affect gas prices, you failed to deny Trump’s impact on gas prices. This is how logic works, though I know it’s difficult for you.

      I remember when Biden invaded Ukraine and told Israel to attack Gaza. That was after he pulled the ‘housing price’ and ‘gas price’ levers in the White House, of course.

      Besides what you have already been told, there already was war in both Ukraine and Israel. Ukraine’s open military conflict with Russia has been active since at least 2014, and Israel has been in conflict with Palestine and neighbours since its foundation following WW2.

      Wesern media not covering them until it was relevant to the US national interests and them not happening are entirely different things.
