They did. They reduced CPI below 3%, which means they fixed inflation.

That doesn't mean they solved everyone's problems. But they fixed what Democrats consider the biggest problem.

As I said, the top concern among Democrats is inflation. Not ending capitalism.

CPI was 2.9% in 2024

They did fix it. Inflation was under 3% when Biden left office.

Democrats aren't responsible for Trump tariffs, and that's what is causing inflation.

Did the DNC make Sanders say this?

You know there are a lot of white folks out there who are not necessarily racist who felt uncomfortable for the first time in their lives about whether or not they wanted to vote for an African-American

The top issues are among Democrats right now are inflation and civil rights, and that's what they are focusing their messaging on.

Nonsense. Bernie lost because he is unpopular among Black voters. And polls consistently show that Democratic voters prioritize other issues over labor.

If people really wanted Dems to prioritize labor issues, then Dems who prioritized labor issues would win primaries.

Texas Dems were bound to go home sooner or later. Most people can't pay $15000 / month indefinitely to stop gerrymandering.

You can make your case against Newsom during the primary.

If Democrats generally agree with you, then someone else will be nominated. If Democrats generally disagree with you, then why would you expect them to do what you want?

"Explicit" is literally defined as "fully revealed or expressed without vagueness, implication"

Which makes sense, because "explicit" and "implicit" are antonyms. Do you think that something can "explosively implode"?

Either way, he is either explicitly considering it or he implied that he's considering it.

If you must interpret the meaning of his words based on additional context, then he was implying.

If there is no need for interpretation, then he was being explicit.

You can't explicitly imply something. You can either imply or be explicit.

That's not explicit. At most, it strongly implies he's running.

Pretty much whenever someone ends a sentence with "if you know what I mean", they are implying something.

Even Jon Stewart cannot defy the rules of logic.

Either he explicitly said "I am running for president" or he implied it by saying something other than "I am running for president."

explicitly implied

Choose one

Leftists: "Democratic politicians are feckless. They need to get on social media to call out Trump's bullshit on daily basis! When is a leader going to step up?!"

Somewhere, a finger curls on a monkey's paw.

OK, if you haven't been to an American pharmacy then I will inform you that they don't carry everything one might reasonably need.

To take another example, a few years I went to Costco for the nasal spray flu vaccine that my kid prefers. They didn't have it and couldn't order it. And no, this wasn't due to some weird objection to vaccines. They had plenty of flu vaccine available, but only the kind administered with needles. Nor were they somehow unfamiliar with this version, because they did offer it in previous years.

It was also not offered by other big box pharmacies like Target or Walgreen's. So to get the nasal spray flu vaccine, my kid would have to go to the pediatrician.

There are a bunch of medicines that are both patented (i.e. expensive) and with way lower demand. In other words: less profitable.

And what makes you think Costco carries them?

There are a bunch of medicines that Costco has never carried, not just mifepristone.
