Yes, you are better off now than you were then.

[Captain Caveman]

Four years ago we couldn't find bleach or toilet paper in grocery stores and we were using refrigerator trucks to pile dead bodies in.
Wtf are you talking about?

It's called sarcasm. It's a joke, it plays on the joke that you're better looked after if you're in the US as an illegal immigrant. Can you see that now? I assume you're a Yank because it flew over your head at 33,000 feet

So here's a fact with no sarcasm.

In the last 16 years, the democrats have controlled the White House for 12 of those years, Trump being there for 4. But according to the Democrats, it's all Trumps fault. Can you explain the American Left's retardism? Don't worry, our Labourites in the UK are just as thick.

 

[lafayette]

Wrong again, Simp.

You are 0 for forever.

Sure, Curley. And Trump has slipped more this week. People are asking why Vance is not at the top of the ticket.

Trump is at fault, having killed the reform bill earlier this year.

That is as far as the voter will look back.

Link us up to Trump's vote on the bill.

GO!

Yep, we all know that Trump nixed it, despite what curley and moe above say.

It is NOT a lie, and the rent of my own apartment that I was living in in 2020 was $600/month. (Oakwood Apartments, 1104 E 140th Ave, Tampa, FL 33613) I moved out when the rent went to $850. It is now $1600/month for a renovated apartment (a 167% increase) $1200/mo non-renovated. Before Biden came in, the rent increases were $25/year.

You still (Sept.18, 2024) don't know that Biden brought about the " high grocery or gas prices" by his actions of cancelling oil leases/drilling in Alaska & the Gulf of Mexico ? (by EO on his first day in office) Jeez.

Biden signs executive order pausing federal drilling leases​

OK. Let's go through it again for all the UNenlightens, starving for knowledge. When you cut supply, demand & prices go up (basic economics). Oil production plummeted in Feb. 2021. the NOSEDIVE oil production took between Trump's last month (344 MILLION BARRELS MONTH), and Biden's first month (277 MBM) when he issued an EO to halt oil drilling. A DROP of a whopping 67 MB/mo.
So the gas prices went up. They were $1.89.gallon when Trump left office. They are still now $3.45-4.78 in 11 states. $3.18-$3.45 in 12 more states. Even if we take the lowest ($3.18) of these, that is still a 62% inflation, relative to the $1.89/gal we all saw all over the country in Jan. 2021.

AAA Gas Prices

The rent that was $750/mo and is now $2000, is that of a friend of mine, but it is also the case for thousands of renters all over the country. This is absolutely common. Have you been living in closet for the last 4 years ? You are ignorant, and it's probably due to watching CNN, MSNBC et al disgraceful leftwing OMISSION media.

And guess what drove these rents up so high and so fast ? Biden flying thousands of illegal aliens into US cities and saturating their rental housing markets. Liberals don't know anything.

Now that trump is back in office, have things improved for you?

The last time the stock market took a dump like this was Trump's last year in office the last time. Mid 2020. Because of how he mishandled the pandemic. Just as we said he would botch the first time a crisis hit him.

Trump creates his own crisis'. He could have killed it in 2017 and 2018 and 2019 but he started a trade war with China. Instead of having 4, 5 or even 6% GDP he had 2.3%. Obama had 2.2%. NOT what Trump promised after he passed that historic tax break.

Canceling oil leases that were dormant and had no intention of being drilled, played NO role in Domestic Oil Production.

ANWR, which is in remote northern Alaska, was attempted to be revived by trump, and he got 1 bid. A complete failure.
The cost of drilling in ANWR is outrageous.
Again, it had zero affect on oil production or gas prices.

Now, what DID have a lasting effect on gas prices was OPEC+, a deal brokered by trump. trump sought to have OIL production decreased. Now why would trump want that?

All of the US Citizens living near or on the border have had their lives improve dramatically since President Trump took control of the Democrat's wide open border. Other improvements will take longer, but they are coming.

Those apts were supposed to be for cheap student off-campus housing, no?
Later on many more were built with that in mind in the area, too.

There's not much Trump can do about the worst Biden damage - rents (and especially in only 3 months) but the prices of some things are coming down, and at least not continuing to rise as it always was with Biden.

Down - TV sets, gas prices, foods.

No such thing as oil leases that "had no intention of being drilled". This is one of the most obvious cases of leftwing media brainwashing. Exercise common sense. Do you know what "lease" means ? It is PAYING for the right to have something. What do you think oil properties are leased for ? To play monopoly with ?

Of course they were intended to be drilled. That,'s what Biden canceled > Drilling. There never was any secret about it. He said he was going to do it in 2020 in the debate with Trump. "Transition away from fossil fuels"

He cut back the supply, prices went waaaay * up, and manufactureres had to pay more to transport. Ho hum.

* from $1.89/gal Jan 2021 to $5.02/gal national avg July 2022.

Only a brainwashed idiot refers to the immigration bill as "reform,". It was an illegal immigration Empowerment bill that would have legalized illegal immigration- allowing the influx of 5000 illegal aliens per day. Nobody in their right mind could accept that.

I was paid $26,000 to sign an oil lease from Dagmar, MT. Split 3 ways between my 2 siblings.
Once the Landman got the leases signed, they started their search for oil. This was 2011.
When no oil was found worth drilling for, they abandoned the area, but I still got my $26,000.

Not every signed lease means drilling will occur.

 

[Winco]

Of course they were intended to be drilled. That,'s what Biden canceled > Drilling. There never was any secret about it.

Biden canceled ZERO leases of 'ready to drill' well.
Any lease he canceled was a lease that was a dead end.

Biden cancelling a lease had ZERO effect on current oil production.
Do some research pal.

Oil is down 25% since January 20.
