my inbox is full of people claiming Biden caused the recent spike in gas prices when he "shut down Keystone pipeline." Given this pipeline does not yet exist -- and was only 8% built by time Biden revoked permit -- this seems to take a very extreme view of rational expectations!

Let's be precise. GOP-controlled Senate didn't "reject" Obama's 2016 SCOTUS nominee; they didn't assess Garland's fitness, hold a vote, vote him down Rather, McConnell refused to hold vote or even a single hearing. He invented a rule to steal a seat & hoard it for a GOP successor

It’s weird how one quarter of 4.1% growth under Trump means the economy is completely transformed but one quarter of 5.1% growth under Obama meant socialism was nigh
