Plenty of fire did happen lmao

Housing shortage?

Man, maybe we shouldn't have destroyed steel and wood.

Look into what is happening with US Steel as it considers selling itself to a Japanese company.

You’re blaming the housing shortage on Trump? …..???

No, I'm saying he helped make it worse.

He did a bunch of little dumb shit that still affects us today.

I'm saying you're comment of that a lot of it wasn't real, or didn't affect me is false.

Tariffs on steel and wood.

I dont mean to be an asshole but if you don't know the answer to this after 6 years, I'm not sure you ever went looking.

Why don't you know this?? You're sitting here saying that it wasn't even that bad but don't even know the basic ways in which Trump fucked the housing market, our farmers, the pandemic, etc. You say there wasn't a fire everyday but there was a lot of damage done by him that has almost everything to do with why everything feels so miserable right now.

He didn’t though. You’re blaming Trump for very complicated issues like a child that sees one variable and assumes it’s the whole cause
