    I guess that’s just too difficult for you to understand, much like jet leg.

    I guess because YOU are being hurt by it, everyone else must be.
    How are you spending the same if things are more expensive? You are either buying less or crappier items than before.

    When I was living abroad, I only bought western products. Like I mentioned before, imported beef, American products, etc etc. American cereal was $12+ for a box.
    things were 3 or 4 times the price of what they were in the states.

    You fucking said you were loving the shitty Russian economy because you were paid in US dollars and everything was priced in the crumbling ruble and you were swimming in cash due to this, now you're saying it doesn't matter because you were actually paying MORE for the shit you were buying while you were in Russia compared to what they cost here in the US?

    Yup, that was for what a few months before I left? You are basing my entire spending habits based on the last few months I was there? That’s funny.
    My salary was in dollars, which is one of the currencies you want to be paid in, along with euros and pounds, when you live in a country with an unstable currency and economy.

    When the Ruble crashed, there was an extremely SHORT period when things were priced nice, until stores adjusted prices.

    Let me help you out Tgo01.
    When the ruble was let’s say 65 to the dollar, a box of cereal cost 800 ruble($12ish). When the ruble crashed to 140-150 per dollar. All of a sudden cereal cost $4.50, until they adjusted their prices. So yeah, for a short period of time, I loved the crumbling Russian economy.


    Last I checked, a box of cereal doesn’t cost $12. So yeah, I’m doing fine.

    If you knew anything about living abroad, you would know foreign products(other than like Pepsi and shit) are ALWAYS more expensive.

    All of you do it actually- it's kind of astounding. You talk in circles and change the subject because none of you wants to be in the position of having to actually defend what he did.

    Our Capitol was under attack by at least two violent white nationalist extremist groups who were there to stop the certification of the election and who were searching for the Vice President of the United States of America and Congress chanting things like "Hang Mike Pence". And Trump refused to tell them to stop. He made absolutely no move to defend our Capitol, Congress, or his own VP. And when he was finally forced to make a statement hours later, he told the armed militia groups who were hunting down the VP and members of Congress and killing cops in the process that they were great people and that he loved them.

    Oh, and did I mention they were only in DC because he told them to come? And that members of his campaign were in talks with these violent white nationalist extremist groups? AND that Trump pointed them to the Capitol building at exactly the time when they were certifying the election results and told them this was their last chance to take back their country and to fight like hell. And he knew for a fact that violent white nationalist extremist militia groups were in the crowd.

    And you all will do *anything* to avoid having to acknowledge that and actually say "That seems like exactly what a sitting US President should be doing".

    Trump will presumably run for office in order to insulate himself from being charged. One way or the other, it would likely be years before he's charged by DoJ- if at all.

    Georgia, on the other hand, may be a very different story.
    I love when you post your REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE.

    You should stick to the Biden talking points of "Putin's price hike" and the ever disappearing Kamala's addressing of the root causes at the border, or that Biden's #1 focus is on inflation, or that releasing millions of gallons of oil from the strategic reserves to the world markets at market price will lower the price of oil/gas... or that we should mask up while outside, or any of the other literal 50 years of things Biden has been wrong about his entire political career; instead of January 6 where you imagine our country was about to be overthrown by some morons.

    Hey now, it lowered the price by a miniscule amount for like a month. I love when we release our strategic reserves while European countries invade each other.

    Oh I’ll add, while some things in Russia were much cheaper, like bread, salt, sugar, toilet paper, etc etc, overall my spending is roughly the same.

    I know facts are hard for you... but sooner or later, or possibly on your deathbed, you'll realize you were a fucking cuck and hate yourself for it.

    You are a fucking moron, just accept it at this point.

    The fact the rest of us sane people have to live with fucking ignorant, partisan, jackoffs like you is why we are where we are.

    If I recall (I could be mixing you up, so if I am, apologies - but I'm pretty sure) years back you said you were from the Philippines? Came to America for a better life yada, yada, etc., etc.? Do you want to immigrate again, because this country got so fucked up? Seems like it.


    P.S. You ask people for "their understanding of the situation"? That would be facts. Not your fucked up shit.
    I'm pretty sure most of time4fun's posts are just a copy/paste of something she heard Rachel Maddow say.
