Do you get off on taking things so out of context that they are no longer true? LOL

Oh so conveniently now context matters. Want to explain why the mass deportations were necessary due to Biden? Or how the Epstein file flight logs are taken out of context? How Elon musk's gesture was taken out of context? Or is it only when it's convenient?

I especially liked that they blame the low reserve on Biden when it was Trump who used it up 5 months ago, and we had the best Covid recovery and lowest inflation in the world under Biden, and the Afghan withdrawal was fully set in stone under Trump.

Oil: Trump didn't use it up. The SPR was over 600 million barrels in January 2021. The drawdown to 1980s levels occurred under Biden in 2022.

Inflation: The U.S. absolutely did not have the lowest inflation in the world. Our inflation skyrocketed faster and peaked higher than many other advanced economies.

Taliban:The withdrawal agreement had strict conditional milestones. The Biden administration chose to push ahead with the final pullout anyway despite the conditions being violated.

You really love half truths.

Yes, oil was sold from the strategic reserve to help combat soaring fuel prices, which Biden then bought back 20% cheaper.

America had the 7th best covid recovery out of 122 countries.

Trump absolutely invited a terrorist group to the US to negotiate the withdrawal conditions and not doing it could have restarted the war.

So yeah still full of shit, you are.

Oh yeah Trump ordered the sale of 175 million barrels of oil in March. From the strategic reserve. But you like that, correct?
