Summary
President Joe Biden highlighted his administration’s economic record, citing consistent job growth and a 2.7% inflation rate drop from its 2022 peak.
December’s jobs report showed 256,000 new jobs and declining unemployment, signaling steady economic growth.
However, inflation remains above the Federal Reserve’s 2% target, and interest rates remain high, impacting homebuyers and businesses.
Public pessimism lingers on affordability as Biden passes a largely strong economy to his successor, Donald Trump.
Merrick Garland deferred to decorum at every turn. Knowing full well decorum is not an option in organized crime.
Just because a suspect twisted a political career into his organized crime does not mean it shouldn’t still be treated like organized crime regardless of the political optics.
What’s an example of Garland deferring to decorum?
It sounds like you’re saying Garland should’ve “gone rogue” or broken the law to take down Trump.
The same judicial system that gives Merrick Garland any authority has been corrupted with GOP picks that will rule in favor of Trump.
Not in the least. He ignored the law and most importantly, justice, in the process of appearing apolitical. He waited forever to appoint Jack Smith, he didn’t file charges for sedition or treason against any members of the Trump cabinet when it was obviously needed to at least bring details to light, he didn’t go after any of Trump’s kids (or Kushner) for illegal monetary gain when newspapers had plenty enough details to do so, and he let the Hunter Biden lawsuit continue after it was obvious they had no real cause. All in the process of appearing apolitical. Republicans would have had a hard time getting better outcomes from having one of their own lackeys in that position.
He doesn’t just run the department of law and order, he runs the department of justice. And we got none of it during his tenure.
What laws/justice did he ignore?
This was done as soon as there was a case.
You can’t file charges without evidence especially just to “bring details to light”.
This investigation is still happening. Why are you claiming there is enough evidence based off of newspaper articles?
You want Garland to stop lawsuits now? Didn’t Hunter Biden lose that lawsuit and get found guilty?
We have never seen a president with 1 felony. Let alone all the felonies and laws Trump has broken. The DOJ wasn’t built to handle this.
The DOJ can’t just throw Trump in prison.
The same system that gives Merrick Garland power, gives Trump power.
Even if Garland was to ignore that and arrest Trump without due process like you’re suggesting. There would be another incident like January 6th with Trump followers storming whatever prison Trump is locked up in.
