In the context that Posobiec used the word "democracy," he was obviously referring to the democratic system of elections employed in the United States, rather than the form of government.

Why play dumb? Do you feel like one of the cool kids now?

Oh ok.

No need to feel like one of the cool kids when we all know I am THE coolest kid. Jelly haters are always unsuccessfully trying to bring me down.

What was he pointing to, in his hand? What is he replacing democracy with?

“ Don’t! “

That’s the sum total of Biden’s foreign policy deterrence against our adversaries.

Dementia Joe is a big joke and a weak unstable fraud of a pussy president that only knows to jail his political opponent in having his corrupt DOJ to make up some BS charges that will hopefully help Joe to win the presidential election by using fraud charges …. Cheat to win bc its the only way Joe can win. It sure isn’t on his America Last accomplishments.

I’m sure Putin takes great comfort in the fact that Biden had already forgotten about the warning within 10 minutes of giving it.

Tax cuts are inflationary as they increase the demand for consumer goods and services. However, if a tax cut is met with a corresponding reduction in government spending, these inflationary pressures could be neutralized.

Given that tax cuts increase demand, any difficulty that producers encounter with increased levels of production will be countered with increased prices.

Supply side economists will argue that tax cuts influence the supply of labor and consumer goods as incentive to work and produce goods. I think Laffer's theory is manure. Trump's budget proposals gave unrealistic estimates of economic growth and couldn't be taken seriously. His policy was highly inflationary.

Trump’s spending definitely had an impact but a bigger impact was the shutdowns that somehow turned into massive wage increases in lower level employees. McDonalds can’t go from paying $8 an hour starting to $12+ and not increase prices. That’s far from the only reason though. For example, the cost of operating a trucking company has gone through the roof between driver pay and insurance cost alone. Those costs get passed to anyone using their services. Point being, it’s far more complicated than reckless spending by any potus.

During a recent campaign rally in South Carolina, Donald Trump described a conversation that he had with the President of a NATO ally, in which he said that if this President's (unspecified) country went delinquent on NATO membership fees, Trump would not protect them against a Russian invasion and he would also encourage Russia to "do whatever the hell they want," following this hypothetical invasion .....

How much of a deterrent against military aggression do you think that sent to Vladimir Putin?

I'm not defending Joe Biden's weakness at all, but the MAGA crowd shows no sense of self-awareness concerning the weakness of their own candidate. MAGA also pretends that Donald Trump's deference towards Vladimir Putin is just a figment of the Democrat's imagination, when Democrats have dumb comments like the one from the recent campaign rally in South Carolina to point to.

It is also true, that whenever Russia has been credibly accused of a cyber-attack against American interests, Donald Trump has always taken sides with Vladimir Putin's denials. In one such instance, the SolarWinds breach, this was even done against the publicly stated conclusion of Donald Trump's own hand-picked Secretary of State, Mike Pompeo.

Why would Donald Trump publicly side with Vladimir Putin over Mike Pompeo? It makes no sense, and that definitely won't deter future acts of cyber-aggression against the United States on the part of Russia, if Donald Trump (heaven forbid) returns to office.

^^^^ This sums up the maturity level, and the inability of the MAGA crowd to intelligently engage in political discourse perfectly. Your raw emotions and tribal nature are always at the forefront.

Supply chain disruptions were also a big factor. It was a perfect storm of things.

^^^^ This sums up Donald Trump's foreign policy in a nutshell. Russia can "do whatever the hell they want," if our NATO allies fall behind on membership fees. I'm not making this up. Donald Trump recently said so himself, and he hasn't walked it back, despite having had chances to do so.
