Here is some basic math for you Johnny...

8% was the 2022 peak. Today it’s around 4%. Inflation is down ~48% from the peak under biden...We all survived those times, Johnny. Gas isn’t five bucks. Inflation isn’t 8%. Food prices aren’t jumping every time you blink. The rest of us are living in the present, where things have actually calmed the hell down.

So yes, things were higher under Sniffer...gas, groceries, rent, electricity, cars, all of it. 2022 will be compared to. Today isn’t perfect, but we’re not living in the $5‑gas, $7‑eggs, everything‑is‑on‑fire era.

Look, I'm not saying 2022 was the Great Depression...but let’s not pretend it wasn’t the closest we’ve come in our lifetime. Forty‑year‑high inflation, $5 gas, record food prices, supply chains collapsing, and the Fed slamming the brakes.

You can't prove me wrong about inflation being 8% under your "daddy" biden.

Listen, Slack Jaw, that was a beautiful word‑salad. But none of it changes the basic point that 2022 was the closest we’ve come to a Depression‑style economic failure in decades. Forty‑year‑high inflation, $5 gas, record food prices, supply chains melting down. And all that happened.
 You can say what you want about global crises, Ukraine, pandemics, and whatever else, but the numbers don’t change. And now you’re bouncing from inflation to UFC fights to weather reports to aliens on Albanian islands. Pick a lane, BITCH....I’m talking about economic data. You’re talking about… everything except economic data.When you’re ready to discuss the actual numbers, inflation peak, gas peak, food peak, rent peak.... I’m here. Until then, take some math classes.
