    I'm guessing that was taken during the 2020 campaign, so Biden there is following TRUMPS social distancing orders ... LOL ... but that is somehow a shot at Biden ...

    I'm sure he's still pulling Biden's strings.

    But the price of food is still rising... including QPwC, and Biden's spend (until bankruptcy) is driving that.

    some of those are misleading, likely intentionally so. But, yes, lots of retail outlets are closing. But don't you think that happens most years? You really think it's specific to Biden?

    Always tough to tell in these circumstances if the poster is just lazy, ignorant, or doesn't understand business. Maybe all three.
    Just off the top of my head, I would guess Kroger revenue has been increasing each year over the last couple of years. That company generally crushes it.

    Kroger is divesting so it gets approval to merge with Albertsons. It’s selling stores, not closing them.

    What difference does it make? I suppose that depends on when you think they mandated the shut down of the economy. If we can figure out when they mandated the shut down of the economy, we can figure out who "they" is.

    When did they mandate the shut down of the economy?

    Seems like we need a baseline to decide if Biden if doing well or not... here it is ...

    The Trump Economy broke the record for retail stores permanently closings in 2019 (pre covid) with 9,500, then broke it again in 2020 with 12,200 (covid) ...

    Permanent retail store closing in 2021 and 2022 were actually quite low compared to Trump's last two years, at 1680 and 4070 respectively ...

    The Biden Economy once again proving it makes Trump it's bitch.

    15K stores could permanently close in 2020, Coresight says | Retail Dive

    NRF | Store closing announcements up in 2023

    C'mon. Biden is a clown. I think even most Democrats accept that now. Trying to save face as if he didn't want anything to do with all of the stupid and draconian Covid measures is insincere, at best. It's like trying to sell discounted "luxury" seats on the Titanic after it had already made contact with the iceberg. If the picture of him upthread speaking at the UAW isn't the epitome of retardation, I don't know what is..

    Biden shut the country... down wile Obama was pulling the strings behind the scenes. But we all really know that Biden was in the WH when the shut-down was ordered.

    What is this? The $10 quarter pounder didn't fly, so now you're claiming that violent crime is skyrocketing?
    And Biden is causing the birth rate to drop?

    Doesn't that feel a little silly?

    All that in the video is NO COINCIDENCE. Food prices and inflation all part of the plan. They are, on purpose, trying to destroy our nation.

    It doesn't make any difference. They try to act as though Biden is failing because a lot of stores are closing. Point out that a lot more stores closed under Trump and they just move on to something else. Hey, the birth rate is falling!! Damn that Biden!

    When did the shutdown start? You can go with the month, it doesn't need to be the exact day.

    That’s some crazy shit Rick. Even from you.

    Trump was in the White House for an entire year of covid. North Carolina was in the middle of the pack and guess what? Two months into Biden, March 2021, after the vaccinations started to get in place, NC was pretty much back to operating normal with some mask and relaxed capacity rules. Even the movies had been opened since August 2020, the 3rd and 4th quarter GDP had been highly positive. Your memory is faulty. Willfully or by accident my man.

    More people allowed into restaurants, bars, other businesses under NC's latest pandemic rules

    After the relaxed rules in spring of 2021 the whole shit show of debate was about who wanted to be careful in public and who wanted to give the middle finger to caution. The shut down business pretty much ended with Trump. Sorry.

    I'm not sure what you're talking about. The $10 quarter pounder was real and a stark reminder of how bad it is gotten under Biden. The video was just an quick list of all the disastrous outcomes of the Biden presidency. High food prices certainly being one of them. I wish Biden was only a disaster in one way, but it's multiple ways. He is destroying the country.

    The mandatory face masks and the mandatory shots were ordered by the Biden administration. 2019? There were no shut dawn is Florida in 2019... People we're losing their jobs when Trump was in the WH... Trump never mandated one order to wear a mask nor to take the clot shot.

    Wow. So you think Biden was President in 2019, which is when you also think that face mask mandates begun?
