Smell..

 


 Biden faces challenges that are strikingly similar to those that bedeviled Carter: surging prices for gasoline and other consumer goods, serious new tensions with Iran and Russia, anemic poll numbers. 

The danger for Democrats is that the bad odor surrounding Carter’s presidency the smell of failure that led fellow Democrats Bill Clinton and Barack Obama to marginalize him at four Democratic conventions has begun to waft onto Biden, who was the first senator to endorse

But for all the deja vu, it’s ahistorical to assume that today’s status quo will apply as the 2024 election gets underway. Given the underlying strength of the economy, Biden is likely to face a repeat of “stagflation” — a ruinous combination of slow growth and inflation. 

In the 1970s, generous labor union contracts and automatic cost-of-living increases embedded inflation in the economy. 

Skyrocketing energy costs, arguably the main driver of inflation, were a product of post-revolutionary supply disruptions in Iran and OPEC’s stranglehold on oil. 

 While Carter faced outside forces, Biden caused it himself.  Keystone pipeline, Russian Sanctions on oil, natural Gas, Money giveaway, and as a result Inflation sky rocketing. This is the New, Democratic Party, taking the country to a new direction.  Just a thought.

Malaise..

 

Jimmy Carter must be the sexiest man in the country,” Mario Cuomo, lieutenant governor of New York, joked privately to friends in 1979. “Everywhere I go, people say, ‘F--- Carter.’”
Let’s go Brandon” is today’s more public version of that refrain, routinely turning up on T-shirts, at Republican rallies and even during a Christmas Eve call-in event with President Biden and first lady Jill Biden. 
Comparisons between the 39th president and the 46th have become inescapable: Rep. Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) tweeted that “Joe Biden is the new Jimmy Carter.” Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) claimed that Biden is “worse than Carter.” 
Carter has even crept into Democrats’ rhetoric: In a recent interview, Vice President Harris described a “level of malaise” amid the new surge in coronavirus cases, an echo of the “malaise speech” Carter delivered in July 1979. (Carter never used that word; he described the country as suffering from a “crisis of confidence.”)  
However, the current Administration blame someone else. 
Just a thought.

Gleefully..

 


Last Wednesday, during a speech on the economy, President Biden coined a new phrase — “ultra MAGA.”

“Let me tell you about this ultra MAGA agenda,” Biden said, using former president Donald Trump’s 2016 campaign slogan — “Make America Great Again” — as a pejorative. “It’s extreme, as most MAGA things are.”  

Then, in the subsequent days, Biden and his team continued to hammer Republicans in aggressive terms, attacking them as “MAGA” and “ultra MAGA.” Biden even dismissed his predecessor at one point as “the great MAGA king.”

It took scant time for Republicans to gleefully seize on the moniker as their own, triumphantly elevating it as a brand worthy of celebration. “I am ultra MAGA, and I’m proud of it,” said Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-N.Y.), the No. 3 House Republican, after a reporter Wednesday noted that she was “being called ultra MAGA.”

New..

 


Gotta Say..

 

Planet Democratic Party in the White House.  Putin caused it.  Just a thought.

Weapon..

 


Antony Blinken, the United States Secretary of State, accused Russia of weaponizing food in its fight against Ukraine and creating a hunger crisis in many parts of the world as a result.”

 Russia reportedly limiting access to its fertilizers, seeds and grains while bombing Ukraine’s ports, food prices have soared before they could fully recover from supply disruptions during the panic periods caused by the pandemic. 

USA and Western Europe imposed sanctions on all aspect of lives for the Russian people. That on its own is creating food shortage worldwide. As President Biden clearly said that will cause food shortage.  

However we just accusing the Russians of this food shortage and walk away of the problem that we are a big part of it.  Just a thought

The U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) states the average person drove about 1,200 miles per month in 2019. The average fuel mileage for cars is about 24 mpg, meaning most drivers will use almost 600 gallons of gas a year.

With the recent surge in gas prices, Americans will now pay over $2,400 for the same number of miles.  And the burden is increasing. Not to mention food, housing etc.

Fare Share or more taxes is the Democratic party line every time they fail to do, fare share.         Just a failed "Ideology" thought.

Formula..

 

The saddest performance of any one WHite Administration in America's history. This is not once out of the ordinary,  It happens frequently.  Just a thought.

Baby..
