‘I would say they’re too expensive because we inherited a disastrous Biden economy, and we’re making progress,’ the Vice President told Fox News
JD Vance admits the prices of groceries and housing are “too expensive” but once again has laid blame at the feet of the "disastrous Biden economy,” despite the Trump administration having taken the reins more than eight months ago.
“Housing is too expensive, groceries are too expensive. Now, I would say they’re too expensive because we inherited a disastrous Biden economy, and we’re making progress,” Vance said, speaking to Fox News’ The Ingraham Angle.
The vice president made the remarks Friday when discussing the struggling U.S. economy and its potential link to a surge in popularity for Democratic New York mayoral hopeful Zohran Mamdani.
No, it was/is supply shock. Two giant global events, pandemic and Russian invasion, disrupted global trade and screwed up supply chains. Things were normalizing until Dumbass took the reins and decided to fuck up the supply chain on purpose with shitty trade policy.
The housing market problems go back to the housing market crash in the 2000s. It allowed the rich to completely lock up existing supply while at the same time freezing new construction. So now there is no path to home ownership for the vast majority of North Americans. This is unfortunately not a US only problem, it’s a capitalism problem.
In my lifetime I’ve never seen Conservatives take personal accountability for any of the consequences of their actions. They are so used to being entitled little babies that they always have to cry victim and find a scapegoat to blame. They refuse to even have productive national conversations on the results of their failed policies. On the flip side I have seen democrats take personal responsibility and try to fix mistakes as flawed as their party is. Conservatives on the other hand capitalize on the democrats taking personal accountability and just double down on their denial while escalating their bad behavior.
That’s what shattered the illusion of Christianity for me as a younger person. Horrible individuals hiding behind an institutional veil of morals.
The past ten years have been even more illuminating. As all of these sorts of issues have been brought to the forefront. One of the common themes I’ve noticed is that the Venn diagram of these types of Christians / conservatives is the overlap is nearly a perfect circle with abusers.
Bizarrely? Republicans deliberately taking no responsibility at all is as normal as the sun rising and setting.
Right. It is bizarre, but certainly not surprising or unusual. Just the same deranged playbook where everything bad is the previous administration’s fault.
We’ll see this exact headline presented unironically as news every few months for the full duration of the Turd Reich.
How do you mean? You don’t think tarrifs are helping Americans? You don’t think hiring idiots and incompetent assholes will ruin us all?
Apshh. Okay.
Trump literally put tariffs on food you fucktard.
"No, you are wrong, it was a knock on from bidens economy…ok, you are not wrong but slightly incorrect. And by that I mean yes you are completely correct that it wasn’t biden at all, and completely the tangerine imbeciles fault but I was also say that I’m waffling on and being distracting. However by this point tRUMPs base of complete idiots will have totally tuned out and will only remember the first words about it being bidens fault.
Also, don’t mention the Epstein list, or how the orange fucktard raped children. We are distracting people from all that as well"
These assholes came in and fucked everything up and then have the fucking balls to blame Biden for their obvious failures.
No way in fucking hell they’d be able to get away with this level of propaganda if it weren’t for the Republican Noise Machine, but a whole lot of dumbfucks believe that the economy under Biden was terrible and that Taco is working to fix it.
Biden’s economy was described as the envy of the world, a Goldilocks economy, etc. And these chucklefucks will stand there with a shit-eating grin and use phrases like “we inherited a disastrous Biden economy”. Get the fuck outta here with that bullshit.
Crazy how grocery prices and housing prices are both low and high at the same time. Republicans are really having a Schrodinger’s economy right now.
“The [economy] is both strong and weak”
They’ll be blaming Biden in 2028. Trump will run for a third term and still pretend he’s running against Biden. Joe Biden might literally die by then and Trump will still be taking jabs at him and calling him “too old”.
“Don’t you want a president who’s only half decomposed?”, he will say. And the crowds will cheer.
Here’s hoping this orange clown doesn’t get past 2025.
What 2028 election? Let’s see how 2026 goes.
They will kill you and your family with the military if you disagree because disagreement is terrorism
It’s good to know my opinions terrify those in power.
Maybe if they cut my bosses taxes a few more times I’ll start to prosper???
Trickle down!!
Its working! Its working!
This stuff boils my piss. The same thing happens in the UK. I get that you need to show restraint to maintain access but there shouldn’t be anything wrong with posing their argument as a negative!
“So you’re saying this administration is failing to get a grip on the economy?” Even if he responds, he’ll be angry, angry people make mistakes. Or even then just say, “Perfect, youre responding with feeling instead of thought: how does it feel knowing your boss is in the epstine files?”
How the hell can no one get a grip on this narrative.
Just turn to the camera and ignore them! “You heard it here first! The VPJD has no confidence in the administration!”
Classic Republican playbook. Same shit over and over again for decades now… everything bad is a Democrat’s fault and everything good is to their credit. And their chumps enthusiastically believe that, literally. It’s much like a narcissistic personality disorder person in a relationship. Can’t admit fault, weakness, apologize, very hypocritical, so on
This mimics religion for me; what I’ve heard and/or interpreted. (Not my personal belief.) Everything good is god’s doing, while everything bad is a person’s failing. It’s such a load of crock to live by, yet it seemingly thrives in people’s minds.
Sure, must have nothing at all to do with massive tariffs on food and construction supplies and arresting a lot of the food and construction workers.
This Nazi government is going to spend a lot of money killing unarmed people in Venezuela, but The working people in america are homeless and starving. The average workers will be in jail if they forget to pay taxes spent in bombs and munition while the millionaire oligarchs Kissing trump’s ass get billions in tax breaks.
How is this “bizarre”? It’s totally on brand.
