Joe Biden Insists the U.S. Is Doing Better Than When Trump Was in Office

President Joe Biden is confident that after two years in the White House, the U.S. is still in better than shape when he was handed the keys.

During an interview with MSNBC, Biden claimed that most of what the Democrats have passed and what they’ve done has not “kicked in yet,” in response to polling data showing people trust Republicans more when it comes to the economy.

MSNBC host Jonathon Capehart asked “here’s a problem, I think, for you and Democrats, despite all the good economic news, low unemployment, record job creation, wage increases, Social Security cost of living adjustment to 8.7%, the highest in 40 years. And yet, poll after poll shows that the American people trust Republicans on the economy and think that Republicans should control Congress. How do you break through that?”

Biden responded by insinuating that maybe by his fourth year in office, so-called good change will come, adding that Americans should not trust the polls.

“I’m not sure about the polls. Because the way people conduct polls today, it’s hard. 90% of it is you get on the telephone where you have to call seven times to get somebody to answer the phone, number one. Number two, a lot of what we’ve done and we’ve passed has not kicked in yet,” Biden said.

The President then mentioned all of the things his administration has done so far, yet leaving out all of the havoc that he has caused almost overnight.

Things are bad. I decided to check out our local goodwill store this morning g. The parking lot was packed and I had to park pretty far from store. Every aisle had people looking at everything from clothing, furniture, and household goods. Some carts were overflowing with goods. My SIL explained to me that on Sundays blue tagged items are $1.00.

We never use the FOR PROFIT goodwill stores and there a plenty of other NON profit charitable locations to use. But, that’s just us. But yeah, they’ve been packed. Picked up some sweet shirts there.

Yeah our local goodwill has special tagged items every day. Military get 20% discount on total purchases. Seniors get discount on specific day of the week. I was looking for dinnerware. Once actually found Lenox dishes at really good price.

You know, it’s a good thing there are Goodwills out there. It’s better to have “stuff” right now than money. One of the few times in my life that’s been true.

Mrs rktman frequents a lot of them for stuff for us and for her art projects. She doesn’t pay retail.

I think we are about to see more of that once the election is over. There are a lot of consequences that will become apparent when winter hits.

Women are better shoppers than men (the only downside is they like too many things)!

Well, everything is better from where Brandon is sitting. He made this comment between gigantic ice cream waffle cones and Air Force One rides. So everything has to be great for everyone, right?

Rate of inflation per year under President Trump:

2017 2.1
2018 2.4
2019 1.8
2020 1.2

Rate of inflation per year under President Potato Head:

2021 4.7
2021 8.3 (after 9 months)

Yeah, no difference at all.(Sarcasm)

Every legal voter should vote for Biden’s democrats up for election, if they feel that the USA and they are better off after 2 years of Biden.

If they and their families are not better off, time to vote against Biden and his left wing thugs in congress and as governors.

As a Believer, I have always had a hard time accepting the theory of Evolution. However, I now believe that Democrats are descended from pond scum and are the product of the infinite negative mutations that had to have taken place. Since mutations create biological defects in a the species it stands to reason that Democrats are dumber than pond scum. Which is why we need to drain the swamp.

Number two, a lot of what we’ve done and we’ve passed has not kicked in yet,” Biden said.

Passed a lot of number 2 all right. And when the fertilizer shortage "kicks in" food prices will get worse. But Klaus Schwab will approve because we can use "number 2" instead of chemical fertilizers.
