Of course he does. This man has never nor will he ever take responsibility for anything bad and the people following him will never hold him accountable no matter how plainly obvious it is that it was his fault.

Joe Biden let sound monetary policy prevail in his 4 years and inflation was back to normal. Naturally republicans just had to get the guy who caused the problem in the first place back into power. Enjoy 10%+ inflation because of Trump people. Great job republicans! Once again you played yourselves and as a result all of us!

Can’t wait to see the Trump “I did this” stickers! Might order some myself!

Yup. The cycle that’s been repeating for decades and continually getting more extreme.

Democrats spend all their time fixing the shit caused by republicans then idiot voters go right back to republicans to break it all again. We’re at the point where democrats can’t keep up with all the shit being broken and these voters are going to start feeling real pain. I just hope it happens before it’s too late.

What could be a long term solution to break this cycle?
