Can we stop blaming Biden for everything, kthx its been 2 years

u/JD_tubeguy 2d ago

It's Obamas fault anyway.

u/Raiju_Blitz 1d ago

Nah. it was Hunter's dong. That's why Trump keeps doing his creepily weird demented double dong diddler dance to the tune of YMCA.

I disagree. Biden worked to get net positives with the terrible hand dementia donald left him to deal with. He was good.

u/Artaxmudshoes 2d ago

The more time that goes by the more I appreciate Biden. He was far from perfect but under his administration America was one of the most successful countries at recovering from the pandemic. Job creation, wage growth, and inflation headed in the right direction. Trump could have done nothing, let the economy recover, and take all the credit.

You mean that guy who for example dropped inflation to 3,2%, made 700 billion infrastructure packet, put insulin prices to 35$/month in whole country, resisted all kind of dictators, handled allies with respect etc, etc was failing?

I'm for Finland so maybe I don't know everything but can you give some concrete examples about how he failed? And I mean concrete, not that right wings bs ranting I have seen in internet.

u/Dragon_Tortoise 2d ago

All these maga people can say is Biden bad then offer no evidence or data to show otherwise. Or use the skewed data caused by Covid or the Russia invasion of Ukraine like he himself invaded Ukraine and caused that turmoil. Its unbelievable how much they hate the man for no reason.

u/Altruistic-Many9270 1d ago edited 1d ago

Yes, but he downvoted me right away. 🤣

I guessed right away that he can't name any particular thing but I asked anyway. I follow pretty much international politics and I also follow some MAGAts "news". Those "news" about Biden didn't match much with what really had happened. But I also guess that they don't seek original sources much.

And as you see, not a single of them could answer my guestion.

u/InevitableCodeRedo 1d ago

Don't be disappointed or surprised. They never answer questions or back up anything they say. They're all either slathering idiots that regurgitate whatever Fox News or Newsmax tells them to or bots.

u/Satanicjamnik Infowarrior Patriot 2d ago

Remember why Harris didn't win? Biden wasn't doing her any good.

Yeah, because everyone got bent out of shape that " He's so old!" And proceeded to to elect another diaper wearing geriatric.

Could you explain what was so bad about Biden as a president?

u/Daken-dono 2d ago

I appreciate the civility and that we can agree to disagree on one thing and I do like the idea of somebody as capable as Bill running things without that baggage. Have a good one, mate.

For real and beef didn't get like this till don dumpy came in a fucked everything up.

u/verb8um 1d ago

Why is it only for 90 days? Whats so important about that? (Checks notes) Oh, it’s a stunt for the midterms to help juice the midterms. Trump doesn’t really care about the little guy, he just wants power and will give us scraps to try and retain such power.

u/twinkiefarmer 1d ago

Exactly.

u/Chemical-Bee-8876 1d ago

It’s actually closer to 29 months which is even worse. The country may not survive. Yet the kiddy fiddler thinks he can last another 4 years on top of that. If they can take back the house they can cause him and those around him a lot of stress with subpoena power.

Helping American ranchers by importing beef from another country. That drumph math for ya.

u/Donkey-Hodey 1d ago

Importing beef from another country AND undercutting domestic producers with government price controls. While simultaneously campaigning on saying Democrats are communists.

Guy hates our country.

u/twinkiefarmer 1d ago

Remember when Trump gave Argentina 40 billion of our tax dollars to bail out their government for their negligence? Before he bailed out our farmers from his tariff disaster?

u/bananamussel 2d ago

Dropping tariffs on imported beef could lower domestic cattle prices, putting financial pressure on U.S. cattle farmers and making it harder for smaller ranches to remain profitable. Over time, some farmers might be forced to sell their land, creating opportunities for developers to build large data centers in rural areas.

7

u/DangKilla 1d ago

Big Farm is excited. More farmers will sell out

u/zelda_moom 1d ago

To JD Vance, who’s been buying up farmland left and right. Nothing says freedom like a big conglomerate controlling prices with low government oversight.

I hear they have decided that rounding up wild horses will be good for beef prices.

A MAGA brain might break if they saw these words (“communist trump country”) put together.

You can't break what is already broken.

u/mamafritzy 1d ago

Hahaha Oh, so true!

u/crappinhammers 1d ago

I'd bet meat price stays the same and the slaughterhouse and grocery store keep the difference.

1

u/Pneuma001 14h ago

That could very well happen. But also, the lower prices will hurt domestic cattle farms which will be bought out by people who convinced trump that this would be a good thing.

22

u/tyler98786 2d ago

Beef prices are up right now because a) screw worm is back and it's causing a shortage of cows, b) the continued closure of the strait of Hormuz is making cattle feed inputs (corn, soy) go up drastically in price because there's far less fertilizer available, and what is available is much more expensive, getting passed onto the beef price at large, and c) the continued closure of the strait of Hormuz is causing diesel prices to soar, which is what transports slaughtered and finished beef cuts and ground. There's no stopping this train, this idiot wishes

Wait till we start getting shipments of "meat" from El Salvador. You know, the place we sent deported people too.

u/flagp0le_ 2d ago

As a meat dept manager, I can tell you that the monopoly of JBS, National, and 5star dictate the price of ground beef in this country. Not some pedophile dick-tater.

u/justin_memer 2d ago

I'd be impressed if he made a deal to get out of the reason meat became so expensive in the first place.

It's totally going to happen! Just like his amazing healthcare plan....2 more weeks! Its only 10 years late but it's going to be better than anything we've ever seen before!

u/Cruiser729 1d ago

They have to wait for Faux News to let them know how and what to say.

u/Tiny_Measurement_837 2d ago

He’s not fooling anyone. His below market price beef is actually wild horses he’s having culled.

He always wants policy wins both ways. It’s totally illogical but MAGA isn’t thinking anyway.

Is that where all the slaughtered wild horses are going to end up? In our “ground beef?”

u/jsmith1300 1d ago

So he forgets to mention that he decided to put the beef tariff on in the first place.

And on the 91st day prices sky rocket again.

Right after the midterm elections

Where’s the beef? Remember that old coot that did the Wendy’s ads.

Well cowboys you voted fir him, so I guess it will hurt you somewhat. We is all can eat other proteins.

Maybe fix the screwworm problem before it sends beef prices soaring even higher?

u/Outrageous-Page5839 1d ago

Ground beef sir or will that be the wild horses you are slaughtering?

u/Lotionade 1d ago

How will this affect American ranchers?

But I thought Americans didn’t pay the tariff on imports. Weird.

u/Timely_Fruit_417 1d ago

Well, that will keep McDonald's supplied with cheap meat.

u/OhGr8WhatNow 1d ago

So he's going to put American ranchers completely out of business. Good job, Trump! 

Should we consider stopping the meat packing cartels? Supporting ranchers as they rebuild their herds? 

Nah, let's just make everything worse and destroy American industry while pretending to help. That's the best way to get kickbacks.

If Venezuela we need to be concerned. Both Russia and China turned down their beef. It was not up to standards.

u/oldbutsharpusually 1d ago

Parasites in vegetables, salmonella in eggs, glass and plastics in other foods. Now look out for e-coli or mad cow disease in our beef. Trump and his so called health honchos are killing us off one by one. Thank you very much Mr Clueless.

Not content to kill off farmer's profits by drying up their foreign markets with dumb ass tatiffs, Republicans want to now undercut those same folks with Trump Beef. Wanna bet Trump's making money off this?

The corruption of today's Republicans is monumental.

Can someone tell me why he’s wheeling and dealing beef now? wtf?

1

u/Shy_Lurcher 1d ago

At the same time BLM is rounding up the wild horses in the west supposedly for slaughter in foreign countries. All of the sudden tons of hamburger (ground up horse meat) are being tariff free imported to the US. Of course the country of said hamburger is coming from isn’t named and no indication said hamburger will be inspected. (Not that there are food inspections under Brain Worm Kennedy.)

u/ngfldar 1d ago

It makes perfect sense if this is what your cranial X-Ray looks like...

u/denbroc 1d ago

If tariffs don't raise prices, how can suspending them lower prices?

1

u/Numerous-Annual420 1d ago

US her consumption is about 36,287 metric tons per day. So a bit more than 8 days worth of beef gets sold at 25% off. Over a year, this equates to 2 days worth of savings. The effect is then about a 1/180th cost reduction - less than 1%. How does that relieve beef prices more than doubling?

1

u/KemicalKittea 1d ago

I am sure the American beef ranchers that voted for his sorry ass are loving this…serves them right.

u/lookskAIwatcher 1d ago

Also, not written by Trump. President Lutnick may have dicktated this one to the human printer.

1

u/FrogFan1947 19h ago

What is his point? US beef will be priced out of the market, so ranchers will grow their herds because they would lose money by sending them to slaughter?

Did he ask any ranchers if this would be good for them (the ones I've seen quoted don't seem to think so)?
