Uncle Joe is setting menu prices at fast food restaurants? Where does he get the time between naps?

the simple solution to the fast food is don’t go. they will get the message if the folks stop going.

and yes. old uncle’s economy is a major strain on the folks pocketbook. I will be shocked if his economy gets him re-elected.

old uncles 3.5 years has been a kick in the nuts to the good folks.

“Unemployment is down, the economy is up, violence is down and the president’s got a 40 percent approval rating in the state of Michigan,” said Mike Duggan, the mayor of Detroit, a Biden ally.

“It makes you wonder what the definition of success is."

It is absolutely true that the stock market isn’t everyone’s (or maybe hardly anyone’s) economy. And that prices remain high.

But it is also absolutely true that many people - and you sure appear to be among them - are simply closed to the notion that Biden (a Democrat, heaven forfend) is a better leader for our economy and our country - than Trump (who is of course the very definition of RINO).

And you may respond that you don’t like, and won’t be voting for, either of them.

As a Michigan voter, your vote matters much more than mine.

A diaper-filling protest joke vote matters.

It matters to the people who have their hands on your food and your household goods, whether you see them or not.

It matters to your daughters and granddaughters (?), whether they can tell you that or not.

Of course he's not setting menu prices at fast food restaurants but for someone to think he has ZERO bearing on the high cost/s of fast food - is a bit naive.
Maybe I am giving you too much credit but I assume you do realize that consumers are suffering from the high cost/s of food in this country.
I'll let you and others decide what bearing Uncle Joey has on that - or doesn't have on that. I've decided he has SOME.
I'm sorry, if the man is going to get credit on this thread for things people feel he does (or doesn't) have a positive bearing on, I'm going to fault with him for things he has ANY negative bearing on. No matter how big or small that bearing is.

P.S. The cost/s of a Happy Meal may have a significant bearing between Joey getting re-elected or not.

Help me understand what exactly any President can do to force corporations to stop reaping record profits.

i find it interesting that a number of fast-food chains are now, again, offering cheaper meal options

did the POTUS force their hand?

two 4 piece chicken nugget happy meals cost me 15 dollars a few weeks ago.

we are not going to take the word of a ca democrat. not today.

Funny to see Mich bitch about chicken nuggets. Evonomy is really doing well. Don't cut off your nose to own the libs.

Guys - this is the usual R game. Break government, blame government for not working.

Don’t allow anything like reasonable regulation on profiteering.

Then blame the Ds for high prices.

The bastards have been getting away with this for almost four decades (that I know of). They’re counting on low information voters
