... is the employment numbers.
Nope.
Our economy is doing very well, thank you, IN SPITE of what your left-wing
Drag-Queen-loving media outlets tell you to think.
I just compared past purchases with recent ones, and most everything is down.

Uh, no.
No double-digit inflation.
No double-priced gas.
No double-priced groceries.
> Why do you think they're not releasing the October employment figures?
Government shutdown?
Seasonal fluctuations?
My "guesses" are as good as yours, but then again, employment is not the
bellwether for how well the economy is doing.
There are too many variables... why fuck with ONE variable at the margins?

Yes, it did, and I have proof. It actually got WAY higher than just 10%,
though fleeting it was.
And THAT doesn't matter. Trump inflation rates NEVER got as high as Biden's,
no matter WHAT was going on in the world. You DO recall, right, that Trump had
to deal with Covid too, you fucking morons.

Minutely. NOTHING like Biden's

Thank you.

Nope. I've got receipts.

Oooooh... a whole month ago, and... uhhh... no.

LOL... idiot.

LOL... last resort of the desperate... accuse someone of lying.
Look them up yourself, faggot.
I can show you what I paid during the Biden reign of high inflation and what
they cost today.

"Trump Derangement Syndrome" Is a Real Mental Condition
All you need to know about "Trump Derangement Syndrome," or TDS.
"Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS) is a mental condition in which a person has
been driven effectively insane due to their dislike of Donald Trump, to the
point at which they will abandon all logic and reason."
Justin Raimondo, the editorial director of Antiwar.com, wrote a piece in the
Los Angeles Times in 2016 that broke TDS down into three distinct phases or
stages:
"In the first stage of the disease, victims lose all sense of proportion. The
president-elect's every tweet provokes a firestorm, as if 140 characters were
all it took to change the world."
"The mid-level stages of TDS have a profound effect on the victim's
vocabulary: Sufferers speak a distinctive language consisting solely of
hyperbole."
"As TDS progresses, the afflicted lose the ability to distinguish fantasy from
reality."
The Point here is simple: TDS is, in the eyes of its adherents, the knee-jerk
opposition from liberals to anything and everything Trump does. If Trump
announced he was donating every dollar he's ever made, TDS sufferers would
suggest he was up to something nefarious, according to the logic of TDS.
There's nothing - not. one. thing. - that Trump could do or say that would be
received positively by TDSers.
The history of Trump Derangement Syndrome actually goes back to the early
2000s - a time when the idea of Trump as president was a punch line for late-
night comics and nothing more.
Wikipedia traces its roots to "Bush Derangement Syndrome" - a term first
coined by the late conservative columnist Charles Krauthammer back in 2003.
The condition, as Krauthammer defined it, was "the acute onset of paranoia in
otherwise normal people in reaction to the policies, the presidency - nay -
the very existence of George W. Bush."
