The bus driver who drove off the cliff is blaming all the passengers for their predicament.

Biden added ‘ultra maga’ to his excuses yesterday. I listened to Biden reading from his teleprompter yesterday and he mentioned ‘maga’ or ‘ultra maga’ at least ten times.

It appears ‘maga’ now occupies 75% of Biden’s demented brain.

I’m waiting for price controls. That’s generally what you get after blaming everybody and everything except what caused the problem in the first place.

There are at least five causes of the current inflation:

- sanctions on Russia disrupting supply of oil, gas, fertilizer and other commodities,
- free spending fiscal policy, including the US government,
- loose money supply by central banks, including the Fed,
- disruption to supply chains due to Covid, especially China,
- environmentalist restrictions on energy and other supply developments.

The bottom four had started the inflation bonfire. Belated attempts to control the fire had started.

Then Biden, by choosing to impose sanctions on Russia, poured a big bucket of gasoline on the fire, completely obviating all preliminary attempts to control inflation.

Focusing on the Fed is short sighted because the economy is global. And the Biden administration, rather than trying to disconnect the US from global problems and making America great again, is intent on involving the US more deeply in them and dragging the country down.

I hope Trump is having "ULTRA MAGA" hats printed up for 2024.

UltraMAGA would look good on a hat.

No president in my lifetime has spent more time blaming and less time taking responsibility than this vegetable.

He already blamed it on the upcoming cancellation of Roe v Wade.

I don’t know about excuses but it seems he has settled on a solution for inflation - open the borders and let illegal immigration rip. That’ll put a dent in inflation in his little mind.

Jimmy Carter blamed the selfish American people who consume too much—and need to conserve, tighten their belts.

Bidet is gonna go there....
