    “Why didn’t Amazon do this when the Biden administration hiked inflation to the highest level in 40 years?” Leavitt asked during a press briefing.

    Because Biden didn’t start a trade war?

      "See, what you don’t understand, is Biden instituted policies to fund “Social Programs” for “Those People” I don’t know, and don’t care about, and are barely “People.” Parasites.

      He was fucking with my money, which I have more than I can ever spend, BUT IT’S MINE! MY PRECIOUSSSSS…"

        When confronted with this nonsense, I had started telling people that Biden had levers on his desk labeled inflation and gas prices. And nobody could get him to stop pulling them. Taking it to the absurd was surprisingly effective.

        Oh, they understand perfectly. They’re just psychopaths who don’t care, and lie like the rest of us breathe.

          Maybe a few of them are too stupid to understand, maybe a couple

          How dangerous to believe deeply resourced and corrupt individuals are entirely unaware

            Exactly.

            99% know exactly what they’re doing, and they’re organized, and loyal.

            Dangerous.

        All these Republican banshees understand is bleach their hair, botox their faces, bleat buzzwords and not so slowly turn the US into a turbo capitalistic hellscape
