that the CORPORATIONS are CREATING THE INFLATION and blaming Biden to make him look bad. It's a DOUBLE WHAMMY, because they make BIDEN look bad, AND AT THE SAME TIME ARE RECORDING RECORD PROFITS, FOR THEIR REPUBLICAN SHAREHOLDERS, AND FINANCING MASSIVE BUY BACKS OF THEIR SHARES OF STOCK........

And AM radio will let Trump take credit for the booming economy and find some way to blame Biden for it. AM radio and Fox News are existential threats to the United States.

of the electorate, the only real issue is democracy. No matter what one party's platform is, if the other party is not committed to democracy, then in order to continue democracy one must vote for the party which is. How long can a democracy last when only one party is committed to democracy? What possible gains can be made in the general welfare once the oiligarchs realize that the electorate has no choice if they want to keep democracy?
