Grover Norquist blasts President Biden for rising inflation: 'First term of Jimmy Carter being replayed'
FoxNews ^ | 06/18/2021 | Cortney O'Brien

Grover Norquist blasted President Biden for pushing for trillions in new spending while the U.S. faces surging gas prices and rising inflation, likening him to former President Jimmy Carter.

Biden initially proposed his $4 trillion spending plan as an "investment in America," but Republicans have pushed back at the price tag.

Norquist compared Biden's agenda to that of Jimmy Carter, who was president in the late 1970s when the U.S. was facing double-digit inflation and declining economic output, a scenario that spawned the term "stagflation."

The next 3.5 years are going to be brutal unless something drastic happens.

Maybe, God willing, there will be enough fraud exposed to at least get rid of Warnock, Ossoff and Kelly. Possibly putting the breaks on everything.

Without that, given the news that Manchin is going to give his party what they want, it isn’t looking good.

Time will tell.

Grover Norquist is no friend to conservatives.
He has been behind the scenes making sure we could only vote for Cheap Labor Express stooges.

Anyone that managed to live through four years of that idiot Carter cringes the the thought put forth by this story.

Even worse yet, this is perhaps a more scary time. When Carter infested the White House, there was a small amount of truthful media left. Now they are fully obedient boot licking servants of the left,

If rocketing inflation will insure that the Heels-up/Biden administration gets only one term, I’m willing to live with it for the next 3 1/2 years.

I used to think that too, but after what the Bushs turned into, I've rethought Norquist. He was consistently anti-tax, which made Bush Inc hate him forever for prompting 41 to make the No New Taxes promise he didn't keep because he thought he could cave to the Dems and it would be okay.

The family has had that attitude ever since.

Taxes don’t mean squat when we lose our country from the unending invasion of fraudulently documented foreigners that Norquist has worked to continue.

Grover has always sickened me. He’s a NeverTrumper who only rears his ugly head when the issue are taxes or how he can accumulate even more money thru tax legislation or Wall Street schemes. You RINOs can keep this rat. I reject him and his globalist politics.

‘First term of Jimmy Carter being replayed’

Perhaps Grover should do a little historical research, he would find out Jimmah was a 1 term President.

“Grover Norquist is no friend to conservatives.

And has strong ties with muslims, including his wife. I don’t trust him as far as I could throw him.

Kelly has the best chance of going the quickest. AZ audit results are nearly done. With the GA ones we wouldn't get results before Christmas, I don't think, if there is going to be an AZ-like audit (which I doubt).

We only have to flip one to make Mitch the Bitch leader again. I would hope if that happens, they vote for Hawley as leader, but then again, a spiteful Turtle could resign and that would stick us with a Democrat, since that KY governor is a Dem (and I think Bashir got "elected" because of Dominion -- It never made sense all of those Republicans "splitting the ticket" because Bevan was so unpopular. They surely knew what they would get with a Democrat gov. And Dominion didn't dare cheat the Turtle because he would have exposed their cheat algorithm).
