Definitely has to be

Bro if one of those candidates win the election the other one isn't gonna be sworn in lmao the fuck

I think biden wins and there is a bunch of fighting, a few hundred casualties.

Assuming Trump doesn't get jailed beforehand but JB wins, Trump of course calls fraud but doesn't have as much pull as in 2020 so it fizzles out over a couple weeks. Might be some violent protests in certain cities but hopefully nothing like Jan 6th

If you vote for joe Biden after literally giving our financial future away to fund proxy wars in Ukraine and Gaza your a fucking idiot

Inflation is high primarily because they gave people furlough or money through covid.
This avoided millions of people losing their jobs or ability to survive.

The US economy is as strong as ever and 100 billion in foreign aid, the majority of which is spent in the US or directly benefits US companies isn't giving away your financial future.
You control your financial future.

Covid money was largely spent under Trump. There was a colossal amount of waste and outright fraud, so we can't just hand-wave it away as saving lives.

Biden has spent far too much (trillions too much), and whether it's the Orwellian "Inflation Reduction Act", student loan debt, or Ukrainian aid we know that none of those help. Benefiting select companies by spending money you don't have is inflationary. People are upset about inflation. But what's really sinking Biden is that he's completely unaware of how mad people are.

Doesn't matter who we vote in.
Inflation gonna inflate. It's just being used as a political tool.

China/US trade wars causing prices to increase at the manufacturing level compounds at the wholesale and retail.

Unions at the multiple levels are getting fat W's left and right. Especially at the logistics level (UPS) where it hurts every one's pockets

Ukraine being a massive global food exporter kicked everyone's food prices in the nads when Russia invaded them

The government removed food from Inflation data long ago or consumer outlook likely would have been negative the last several years. Why? Food prices are whack lately.

You can't buy a fkn house anymore because companies figured out they can treat them as low tax investment alternatives. Now we have a nation filling up with renters.

The actual unemployment number being presented is a huge lie. They use specific metrics

Basically let's funge the numbers to keep people thinking it's not as bad as it really is. Both parties do this. Neither of them tell the truth because it keeps people in line. The list goes on.


I'm personally not voting for either of these idiots

The Inflation reduction act is slated to cost around 800billion over 10 years. Ukraine aid from the US is what now? 150 billion pledged.
The Covid Furlough scheme, as you correctly mention was under Trump was 5 trillion, over 2 years? 4 years?
That doesn't even account for the cost of vaccine rollouts which was half a trillion estimated.

The same furlough system happened in Europe. They printed and gave people thousands to sit at home. Or more accurately gave that money to companies that otherwise would have collapsed.
There wasn't really a choice though. The alternative was total collapse.

There are multiple factors but dishing out 5.5 trillion dollars in 2 years. And trillions of Euros at the same time. That's the main body of your inflation right there.

Unlikely, but worst outcome would be..

Biden wins, passes away shortly after and we get Kamala. During 2016, Kamala could not get out of single digit approval ratings, she was PKd after Tulsi wrecked her for race baiting.

Not sure how the country would handle that
