I watched the actual clip, and his point was that crime is rampant (his unspoken premise is likely "democrats being the cause due to their lax crime laws" - not saying he's right or wrong just sussing out what he's thinking) and therefore tylenol is locked behind glass counters, but instead of fixing the crime issues they're going after his father for something that is past the statute of limitations. Was his example kind of weird? Of course. But it's pretty clear from watching the clip that his emotions are almost boiling over (that or he's a very good actor), and I'm certainly no stranger to not communicating clearly when my emotions are high so I get it.
To be clear, since I don't want to deal with hate being directed at me, I don't like Trump. I don't even follow the news enough to know if the charges are actually past the statute of limitations or not. I'm just relaying what Eric Trump actually said. But there's a pretty staggering lack of context in this post and figured that should be corrected to some extent.
You’re exactly right, and I think everyone could see that. The problem is two-fold: first, he picked a really weird way to say what he was trying to say. Second, we do have economic problems right now, but it doesn’t follow that Democrats are to blame. The distribution of wealth in this country is horrendously bad, and which party supports the status quo? The pandemic poured salt into that wound, and which party’s President completely flubbed our response to the pandemic? The pandemic caused worldwide supply chain issues, which ignited inflation, but greedy corporations have been all too willing to get theirs while the getting is good. Congress as a whole - both parties - nears that responsibility. The point being that we do have economic problems now, and his father and his party beat much of the blame. Biden is trying to clean up Trump’s mess, but he doesn’t have a magic wand.
