      Economy in freefall, constantly rising inflation, interest rates through the roof and home prices not falling at all

        Free fall, meaning? Inflation is going down. Interest rates are a mechanism to control inflation, and historically are not all that high. Housing is a problem, but nobody is going to do much about it because something something free market. Not everything is great, but not dismal either. I don’t really see how this is Biden’s fault, but I am sure people will still blame.

      Marketing from the Biden team that Democrats use to support their cause and Republicans ironically use to support their cause.

        That’s the official term presented by the WH. The rest is correct.

            My cat has a better grasp on economics than you do. Oh and my cats are rescued from Russia.

              Healthy economies do not have skyrocketing credit card debt, skyrocketing car repos, less savings, increasing evictions, and people losing their homes because of unaffordable housing. If the exact same conditions were happening under a GOP, WH liberals would be in an uproar, but since BlueMAGA is running the show they went to brunch while the world burns.

                That’s all been happening for decades, dude. Literally wtf are you talking about?

                What policies have Republicans presented to address those issues besides cutting taxes for the rich and cutting social programs that support working families?
