Dem Post Mortem

Are there maroon people being insulted? If not, I don't understand the gif.

 Maroons

”Maroon” may also be an allusion to “moron” ala Bugs Bunny’s “What a maroon” line about Elmer Fudd.

Elmer isn’t middle eastern? I thought with that weird accent …

Right. As thebeave mentioned in post #782 and I agreed in #783.

The confederacy of dunces that is America apparently thinks the president controls the price of eggs. He doesn’t.

I do not think many people believe he does so directly.
But a president certainly sets the economic agenda that does affect things like egg supply and general inflation rate.

The last time a president tried to control the price of eggs was in 1972, when Richard Nixon imposed wage/price controls.

And the last time a presidential candidate proposed to control grocery prices was one Kamala Harris. I think you may remember her.

It eludes me how he was even able to constitutionally do that. He did it because inflation was rising owing to the fact that LBJ neglected to raise taxes to pay for both his Great Society and his idiotic Vietnam War.

I thought fiscal policy had nothing to do with inflation rate. At least that's what I was told when I pointed out that Biden's overspending contributed to inflation.

And we have courts and court rules to take care of the "nonsense reasons", though perhaps you would simply state that some red state's Supreme Court would be too corrupt to not declare Biden an insurrectionist without any credible evidence. I guess there's no arguing against that kind of logic, eh?

You trust the red state courts on something like this??

do you have a logical reason to not? Or just partisan hate? Basically you are agreeing with me that you believe our system is hopelessly corrupt.

If The Felon takes power the corruption will become hopeless.

in the state courts?

SCOTUS can override them.
