46 days from midterms. Will voters believe Democrats, who created the affordability crisis by turning inflation from 1.9% when Biden came in to office to 9.1%, are the right party to fix it? Basically should voters hire the arsonists to put out the fire?

We gave republicans every office. They failed (on purpose as always) And you want me to vote them back in? Nah… -2X Trump voter Screw all you $7k grifters. Not my vote. 3rd party or die this point. And if we “hold our nose and vote” Republican then 3rd party dies.

Honestly, I cannot believe that you are trying to gaslight people. Yes, Biden sucked big time. But everything was coming down and Trump has screwed it ALL up again. Much worse now globally. Why can’t you admit it?? It’s as obvious as the day is long.

The inflation rate was 3.0% when Joe Biden left office. It is now 3.4%. Voters sure don’t trust an incompetent president who made it worse.

Dude, we literally just watched Trump destroy affordability by starting a war he said he’d never start. He also said Iran’s nuclear program (the one our own ODNI said wasn’t even close to a bomb) was set back decades after midnight hammer. The “Republicans” —minus Rand Paul— did absolutely nothing while in the majority as well. They’re cooked, dude.

Democrat voters will vote for Democrats. The real question is why should conservatives go out and vote for Republicans. Voters gave them the House, Senate and Presidency and what did they do with it? Nothing.

Or will they get in line behind Trump who skyrocketed the debt over 40 trillion and launched a war no one wants. It’s hard to imagine voters lining up to vote for rising gas prices and another Middle East conflict. I was told over and over again this would all be over well before midterms by pundits. This disastrous war very well could hand the House and Senate to Democrats and get Trump impeached. So stable. So genius.

@nedryun Here is how normie, non-political voters think. "Gas was going down before Trump attacked Iran. Now I might not be able to afford to heat my house, buy food, or drive to work. I will not vote for that." Simple as 🤷‍♂️

Both sides are responsible for the wildly excessive spending, which one of the main drivers of inflation. The uniparty loves spending because it gets votes. Nothing is going to change I am afraid.

Both parties have proven to be arsonists. Trump ran on getting inflation under control and then poured gasoline on it.

Bro. Don’t gaslight. Republicans are no better. Use your platform to find us a 3rd party that works for America and stops running up the bill.

Trump spending in 2020 went into Biden‘s 2021 year and Biden continued it of course which made things even worse. Both Trump and Biden make up for half of the national debt. They both fucking suck.🗑️

Biden handed Trump 3.0% inflation with $3.10 per gal gas. Today we have 3.4% inflation with $4.22 per gal gas. Yes we trust the democrats.

What will be your excuse when republicans the win midterms and nothing changes or it gets worse?

What’s going to happen is record low participation on the right. I wouldn’t show up for you jackasses. You’ve literally not only done nothing but did the opposite of what you ran on. You can go to hell mother fcker

Oh yeah, Trumps CARESact, shutting down the economy, rent, SBA and student loan moratoriums had nothing to do with it. I’m not a Biden fan, but this is straight Trump dick riding.

Keep spouting this BS. Y'all are gonna suffer big time in the midterms, unless a voter fixing is implemented.

Did you know there was a pandemic raging in 2020? That’s why inflation was nonexistent.

They're definitely going to see a party that has put the interests of a foreign country over their own.

You lie like a Democrat or liberal. The high inflation rate at beginning of Biden's term was because the economy was suppressed because of Covid. Inflation, because of the unnecessary war in Iran, is higher than it was at the end of Biden's term and higher than last year.

Spin baby spin. Simple fact. Inflation is higher now tgan when Trump took office.

Hey asshole. We voted for a guy and a party that totally betrayed us for a foreign country. Will the democrats be better. Nope. They’re beholden to the same POS country. But you don’t reward betrayal. And you don’t sure as shit vote for it again.
