    No no no you see it's more complicated. No, I can't explain it. I don't fully understand, myself. I can't personally defend the Confederacy but I identify with them strongly and questioning them makes me angry. Instead I'm going to attack you, Joe Biden, communists, and BLM in order to derail the conversation.

    But also it's not really sarcasm it's more like satire because I truly feel like some Republicans think this way.

    The inflation is caused by a conglomeration of things, and mostly not from us giving out stimulus. Trump is a clown but he didn't cause the inflation.

    The inflation is supply side. That means it's caused by reduced stuff, not increased money. The Russian war caused oil to skyrocket and that caused a significant amount of the inflation.

    I just want to make sure I get that off my chest. Newt heavily contributed to starting this. He's the original McConnell. He wrote the playbook.

    For better or worse it is unrealistic to expect business to just eat rising costs just because they got into business before the costs were so high. That would be nice but it's just not how the world works. If that were true then entire economies would collapse every time there was an economic shock.

    Yes but they aren't getting first class representation so they keep adding letters to the acronym. It's too bad literally no one outside the activists cares. Most of my LGBT+ friends think it's a bit silly. Not horrible, not ridiculous, just a bit silly.

    It's certainly a thing the LGBT community is mocked for and it's something that the vast majority of people just politely stay away from. That's really too bad.

    What are your thoughts on the Republican presidential candidates running against Trump? Do you think they have a shot?

    I really think it seems like they're going to get destroyed. Trump still has a grip in the party, as evident by the number of people supporting in as he continues to go through legal woes. I'm interested to see how Christy does. I don't think he's going to win but I do want to see him try to pick on Trump.
