Held accountable by whom?

Those who apparently think the POTUS sets the price of gas and groceries for the period he's in office?

This is the context. J.D. Vance said that in 2016 but then HE says something happened which changed his mind, causing him to admit he was wrong. President Trump's first term. 

That's what I told these goobs yesterday without having an inkling of what Vance would say last night and they had a good laugh about it.

He then promptly comes on national t.v. and confirms what I said.

I’m leaning toward cognitive tests for participating in this forum.

It might help the image of Auburn University.

Some of these posts are so ignorant of economic reality - and history -  it's embarrassing.

Trump inherited a booming economy and they think he created it.  A pandemic at the end of his term created economic disruption/inflation and Biden is directly responsible.

They apparently have some sort of 'savior complex' regarding the presidency.  The president waves a magic wand and poof - the reality of the moment comes into being.

(I suppose that comes naturally with their religion?)

What's sad is that this forum isn't even that bad compared to others. 

Ever been to TigerDroppings political forum? It's probably about 80% Right wing/MAGA and the discourse and discussions there make this forum look downright professional and scholarly.

I’m actually still waiting on any of them to confirm with actual evidence any democratic president or First Lady calling Trump hitler.

Hell I wish they would. The dems go too soft on the fascists in the GOP. 

For the record, this was just from the first 6 pages of a 12M Return Google Search

I added fascist, Naxi, Hitler, and 2-3 more. I could do pages of this, I mean pages of it. Hyperbole is not funny when you are inciting people to act out in violence.

Just saying if a Republican were POTUS you can bet grocery prices would still be an issue.

I feel like we are forgetting that the gunman was a white kid from an upper middle class family in Pennsylvania.  He was a registered Republican and gun proponent.  His dad owns over 50 weapons legally and believed that his son was going to the shooting range on the day of the shooting.  The kid was clearly disturbed, but there is no indication that the issue was related to calling out Trump for his actions that show a disdain for our elected form of government or his anti democratic tendencies.

Do you think his parents knew he was disturbed?  If so, why was he allowed access to weapons?

Denial is a powerful thing.  Even if they did know, I doubt they ever imagined that he would do something like he did.  Going to the gun range was something his dad did all the time, so I doubt it raised an eyebrow.

Of course they didn’t imagine he was capable of that.  Neither did the parents of the school shooter in Michigan that got prision time.

His dad going to the range has nothing to do with him going to the range with dad’s gun, or did you miss type?

The school parents in Michigan had been called to the school multiple times and were asked to take him out of school.  They also bought him the weapon well after they knew he was disturbed.  To top it all off, the mother testified on the stand that she wouldn't do anything differently.  My God, she deserves every day she spends in jail plus some for not trying to prevent what happened.

I mentioned going to the range, because it has been reported that he told his dad that he was going to the range to shoot that day. From what has been reported so far, I feel badly for the shooter's family. They seem to be decent people.

We still don’t know what the family knew and why they let their son have access to guns if they knew he was disturbed.  It has been mentioned by his school acquaintances that he was bullied and we know how school bullying and guns go together.

A lot to be determined.

You start with a reasonable thought and could easily follow through with evidence that Trump inherited a good situation.

Trump did offer a boost of confidence in areas. Example being that building in certain geographic locations boomed overnight. Obviously the economics were in place and money available. 
 

You can not help but gouge and stir with divisive remarks.

Check the trend lines. Trump just continued an already positive trajectory. And he juiced the economy with costly tax cuts to do it.

I am not disputing the trajectory. Just seemed that immediately after the election we were building on every available and desirable corner.

I'm seeking explanation for the behavior and responses of MAGA's.  Which seems fanatical at times. 

Maybe I watch too many interviews of Trump rally attendees.

I can see that. Most people do not interview well. I wouldn’t pay a lot of attention.
