you are incorrect.

Biden called out Walmart, Target and other big chain stores specifically about staple grocery prices and asked them to lower their prices. over the next few days and weeks, all of those stores lowered thousands of their grocery prices.

Biden launched and funded organizations to fight price gouging and shrinkflation through the ftc, inflation has been steadily being brought down by Biden ever since the catastrophe trump left him.

    Thank you. It drives me bananas that people are so fucking lazy they can't see any shade of gray. This is why bOtH sIdEs is popular. People just cannot be bothered to look at a fucking detail every now and then. Makes me want to scream.

    High five.

    it seems like Americans watched the South Park episode about Trump and Hillary, assumed it was the factual, comprehensive truth about all politics everywhere forever, and then never looked at any of the facts ever again.

    The democrats reduce inflation.

    The Republicans force women to die in hospital parking lots.

    democrats fund civil rights advocacy groups.

    The Republicans make memes about murdering senators.

    Democrats significantly increase the value of the US dollar and lower unemployment

    The leader of the Republicans is a rapist.

    Don't forget the 10 prescription meds Biden negotiated MUCH lower prices for.

    But hey, "Biden didn't do anything"

    yep, that is good to throw in.

    I try to keep these as specific as I can, because as soon as I mention more than one item in the same sentence, the conservative arguing with me is like "so first he reduced inflation, then he also reduced prescription drug prices? which is it? choose one!"

    presidents can actually do more than one thing-

    "Last year biden said he was 80!

    this year Biden says he's 81!

    what's the real number?"
