COVID Economy

[Jockey]

Which vaccine(s) exactly did he get? The Pfizer BioNTech vaccine, created in Germany, or the Astra Zeneca vaccine in the United Kingdom, or  the Janssen / Johnson & Johnson vaccine created in the Netherlands. Maybe Moderna, maybe. But even that was built on work of others outside the US.
There was and is a global effort to create, produce and distribute vaccines.
Businesses, scientists and money from the USA were all important, but it is fake news to claim that Operation Warp Speed created those vaccines all by itself.

Well, the plan was to trade Puerto Rico for Germany, UK, and Netherlands straight up. He was hoping they would also throw in Greenland. If only he wouldn't have lost.

Yeah, reely thrilled gasoline jumped over $1/gallon since January 20, hey?

Sign of a recovering economy!

Economy picking up, Saudi's finally cutting production.   Supply, demand.

Moved the Gas discussion (old man rant) to the correct thread.  Doc needs to study up on facts (and science), but Covid did indirectly affect the prices.

Actually, less than half of what you claim, but arguments are always easier when lying is allowed.

Agreed. The increasing demand is a great sign that the economy is headed in the right direction. Bravo!

Nice to have a leader who actually leads, who leads all Americans, a leader for whom it isn't all about himself.

Traffic jams out there today.   Damn you, Biden!  (Shakes fist at the sky)

Sure, and anti-fracking legislation had nothin' ta do with it. Looking at rampant inflation soon coupled with increased unemployment. Oh yeah, Old Man Diaper Rash had nothing to do with it. Guess he wuz busy taking questions after his news conference, hey?

What anti-fracking legislation ?

Please.  If we haven't had rampant inflation with all the tax cutting and deficit spending of the last forty years, we certainly aren't going to have it now.

[Hards Alumni]

What anti-fracking legislation ?

Facts no-matta to the "orange man good" crowd. 

[4everwarriors]

Fine, anti-pipeline, then.

[The Sultan]

The Keystone Pipeline?  That's a Canadian jobs project.  The US produces 15 times what the Pipeline would generate anyway.

So many talking points.  So little facts.

Am I to assume you'll be referring to trump as old man diaper rash when he hits 78 in 3 years? Or are you using pointless attacks purely for partisan reasons rather than trying to actually make a point about age?

[jesmu84]

Fine, anti-pipeline, then.

Lol. Might want to get your story straight before trying to spout off.

Tell me more about the significant inflation that has occurred in the US with all the tax cuts and spending over the past 8 presidents.

[GooooMarquette]

Fine, anti-pipeline, then.

One unsubstantiated talking point is shot down, so you just reflexively move to another unsubstantiated talking point?

Solid.

I mean come on.  To suggest that EO had no impact on American jobs is just burying your head in the sand.  There is a sane argument to make for the project and against the project without ignoring reality.

[The Sultan]

I never said it had no impact on American jobs.

[pacearrow02]

I never said it had no impact on American jobs.

You don't think by labeling it a Canadian jobs project you're suggesting it is and never was something that would help American workers?

Guys - COVID economy...

The pipeline caused COVID?  Hunh?

He hears it on FOX every day. How can he help but repeat it.

At least the senile old man is getting Covid under control. But even I would seem like a great prez after the buffoonery of the last 4 years.
