American Politics

[Elvis 2008]

My linked source was Forbes. Yours was apparently your ass.

Feel lighter now that you got all that crap out of your system?

Sigh. 2014 under Obama, https://www.aogr.com/web-exclusives/us-rig-count/2014, peak was 1931, week of 9-19-14.

2019 under Trump, 1/4/19, peak was 1075. https://www.aogr.com/web-exclusives/us-rig-count/2019.

Current rig peak under Biden, current, 740. https://www.aogr.com/web-exclusives/us-rig-count/2022.

In 2021, rig count high was 586.

And you are bragging about all the oil drilling under Biden? Hey, dummy, which is the most: 1931 or 1075 or 740? Well, if you are a dumb Dem, it is whatever number wants to be the most right?

What next you dumb Dem? The source not right? Or maybe you have an "expert" who can dispute, you know something like "the rate of increase in rigs is growing under Biden whereas it was falling under Trump. " Yeah, let us just ignore the pandemic and let you and the "experts" cherry pick numbers.

What you posted was a lie, pure partisan BS. The rig count should be higher now than it is under Obama.

Of course, that does not fit your Democratic good guy and Republican bad guy style of investing does it? The rig count was higher under Obama because Obama was not a moron like Biden is.

Evil Republicans did not have jack to do with any of this. This is all on your sorry dumb Dem's asses.

How about we do a poll here on this thread. Given what we know today who thinks "Donald Trump would have been a much better POTUS now than Joe Biden". No explanation or TLDR essays please, just simple "YES / NO / Not sure" opinion poll for readers and writers in this thread. We can close the poll on next Sunday June 26th, and tally up the results. I will go first.

"Donald Trump would have been a much better POTUS now than Joe Biden".

YES. Gino02.

Sure, but let's require a practical "Voter Identification" before we can count your vote. You folks love "Voter Identification", right?

Here is this one; in order for your vote to count you must provide a link to verifiable data on Jobs Creation, the Unemployment Rate, GDP Growth, Trump's Pandemic vaccination distribution, Bipartisan Infrastructure Legislation passed, Deficit Reduction, etc accomplished by Trump as it existed at the handoff to Biden and compared to what has happened under Biden so far.

After all, "so far" is all we've got for Biden but you want to compare that to what Trump gave us after four full years, don't you?

Just "guessing" Trump's four year results were better than Biden's as of today isn't worth a damn. Let's see your proof.

[ScatManDoo]

Explain that argument to me please. If information is compelling, why does the source of that information matter?

Because crappy sources often spread lies.

Grifter TrumpShit is the obvious example.

He spread false fraud accusations to gain power and money.

From suckers.

[EihTooms]

It kills me what a liar you are. With Trump, the number of rigs was up at 1200 when the price of oil was much less than it was now. The pandemic hits. Demand goes down, and rigs and drilling goes down as well. We did not need more oil during the pandemic, and I suspect oil workers were furloughed as nonessential workers.

There has been a 60% increase year over year you say. Yeah, that is the increase from the pandemic. With oil as high as it is, there should be 1200+ rigs going not the paltry 700 now. Everyone in the know thinks this is inadequate.

So yeah, thanks Joe for the $6 gasoline. Thank you for not increasing refining capacity and thanks to all the Dems for Russiagate, Ukrainegate, and the war in Ukraine.

$6 gasoline is not a problem for you seeing as how you are being pushed around in a wheelchair in Thailand.

Failing to critique and consider the source of compelling information, Is how suckers become suckers.

Explain that argument to me please. If information is compelling, why does the source of that information matter? Compelling information stand, no matter the source, right?

Go check out 'The hierarchy of information' - you will see that 'expert opinion' is the bottom rung when assessing the validity of information. So logicians accept that there are many better methods to assess the validity information than considering the source of that infiormation. I am not making this stuff up. This is accepted science.

And that is the scientific view of 'source". Spelling mistakes do not even make it on to the bottom rung of the 'The hierarchy of information'.

So please do, explain to me why the science behind the 'The hierarchy of information' is wrong and that you know better than everyone else.

Trump was a disaster on Covid, Trade, foreign affairs, deficit blowout and corruption. Big noooooo!

"Donald Trump would have been a much better POTUS now than Joe Biden"..

Yes, everyone knows there would not have been a war in Ukraine if Trump were re-elected. Everyone agrees to that. Biden won because of the virus and the number of cases and deaths were worse under him than under Trump. You have higher interest / mortgage rates, rampant inflation, a crashing stock market, a housing bubble ready to burst, soaring rents, a lack of tampons and baby formula, skyrocketing electricity costs and blackouts, and $6 gas. What good has Biden done on anything?

Oh right, we no longer have hurtful Twitter posts. Yeah, I am all in on Biden (sarc).

[Elvis 2008]

"Drill, baby, drill is the fix for higher gas prices"!

Except when it isn't:

U.S. Oil Companies Have Increased Drilling By 60% In One Year

https://www.forbes.com/sites/rrapier...h=4eafa06e1556

Uh, the year they are talking about is under Biden, from the time Trump was kicked out of office.

Was Trump just too stupid, lazy and busy creating Trump's Pandemic to spur dramatic increases in USA oil drilling as Biden has done over the past 16 months?

Had his cop-killing Insurrection and violent overthrow of American democracy succeeded, Trump's laziness would have had gasoline at $20 per gallon by now.

Thanks, Joe.

Taking political assessments from monger boards is is almost as wise as taking relationship or mental health advice, which sadly too many do.

Touche".

Post script, may I add financial, legal or medical advise LOL.

You are doing nothing other than confirming the political sentiments of a monger board, which in general are far more right than the general population. Taking political assessments from monger boards is is almost as wise as taking relationship or mental health advice, which sadly too many do.

Quoting Russia Today before they started the WW3 was already a bad form. But parroting the propaganda outlet, which is nowadays openly and brazenly fascist, takes it to the new level.

I know I shouldn't be surprised -- didn't your Nazi sympathizers in the 30's parrot Dr. Goebbels with the same zeal?

But I got to admit I still am. How one really, and I mean really, must hate his country!

I love the United States, its your racist ilk that want destroy it, and espec anything that's white, hetero, or CIS male.

If Trump wasnt cheated the country would be doing exponentially better.

If he took a huge dump it could do a better job than Joe, did you see his bike spill.

He seems like a real life version of Weekend at Bidens.

Criticising others for spelling mistakes, and criticising the source of information rather than the information itself.

Failing to critique and consider the source of compelling information:

Is how suckers become suckers.

Yes, not even close. No war, much cheaper gas, lower inflation. Which means more work and extra money for everyone, including the government. Not to mention is has almost done nothing to fix the supply chain issues.

I only put some of the blame on Biden for the increase in violence and drugs. There is plenty of blame to go around there.
