    Signing the checks wouldn’t have erased Biden’s numerous attempts to take a fucking victory lap in the middle of the largest cost of living crisis since the Great Depression. And then he whined to the papers that the people just didn’t understand. A literal Principal Skinner moment.

      Biden delivered more than most presidents ever will on the subject, the FTC was actively investigating entire markets and recommending cases to the DOJ over monopoly and price gouging, a Federal Judge literally just decided the Krogers-Albertson Merger would be halted as a result.

      He reverse the Inflation Rate trend that occurred under the Trump admin in his first few months as president, despite it being caused by a literal Plague on all of humanity.

      He deserved a victory lap, people are just fucking morons for not seeing how much was being done for their benefit. And now, they’re going to be blind to all of it being undone, as well.

        People don’t give a shit what you think you deserve. They want results and wall street celebrating is not a result when parents are having trouble buying food for their kids.
