Everyone is too busy laughing about Trump's $99 super hero trading cards.

Why, because they cost less than half of a tank of fuel under Biden?

Say what you want about Trump because you hate him, but the United States was at least 60% better off then compared to now. The problem is you seem to think that it's better having someone you like making things worse than someone whom you hate making things better...

93 octane here is $3.00 to $3.30 a gallon. That makes 24 gallons $79.20 on the high side.

I don't hate Trump. I think his actions and beliefs make him unfit to be President. I met him at a 'skins' golf tournament in the Bahamas many years ago. He was very gracious and personable. Like or dislike of Trump or Biden is based on their actions. Nothing personal.

Just wondering, where did you find that the country was 60% better than it is now?

Happy Holidays!

Second that. Even California with 22 gallons of premium at 4.65 this week is $102. That’s around 300 miles of comfortable traveling in my X5 that an useless nft won’t give me.

I vote some on party but mostly on who I think is best for the job (Country) and is a Constitutionalist (hopefully). Trump wasn't a Constitutionalist but was the best choice compared to Hillary and later many believed he was a racist, etc only because of what the news said (without cause or proof) that they voted for this feeble minded slipknot, so at this point I have zero faith that most Americans will actually look at their living standards and compare honestly between then and now without voting solely for party or just because they hate someone's attitude.

Almost no one does their own research these days and those that do usually research using websites that are all of one slant. I hope people realize that if they get people into government that are good for the Nation that it will be good for them too...

That's the idea/hope right? I can not honestly say that I am any better from any policy enacted by either party over the last 4 admins. Any improvement in living situation is a direct correlation to how hard my wife and I have worked. Especially through the pandemic, which it seemed the gov't was intent on making worse.

Both parties have been spending us into oblivion and I don't see any signs of that stopping so I expect more of the same in the future. And I guess our gov't is finally admitting the likely source of the Vid was the Wuhan Lab after all. You can't trust any of them.

But Trump will get my vote if Biden runs and he ends up with the Republican nomination. I never thought I'd say that...
