The Biden and Kamala administration have decimated the US economy over the last four years, forcing millions of small businesses to close their doors for good. One America’s Pearson Sharp reports.
Transcript:
Kamala likes to brag about her responsibilities since she’s been vice president—even taking credit for a lot of the “accomplishments” of Yosef Biden.
Well, that’s fair—if she wants credit for this mess, I’ll allow it.
The proof, as they say, is in the pudding.
So let’s forget about what she’s saying today, and all the promises she’s making—and instead, let’s check in with her real-life “accomplishments,” the things she’s actually done and taken credit for, and let’s see how the good ‘ol U-S-of-A is doing these days.
And let’s start with just the past week, when Walgreens announced that business is so good, they’re closing 1,200 stores across the US—meaning Kamala’s economy just killed about 18,000 jobs.
Apparently her economy is so great, the drugstore giant hemorrhaged over 3-billion dollars, just this past quarter.
Off to a good start!
And then we just got the news that convenience store giant 7-Eleven is doing so well in Kamala’s economy, that they have to close 450 stores—costing around 4,500 employees their jobs.
Then we have news that the 75-year old, beloved hardware wholesaler True Value—with over 4,500 stores—is filing for bankruptcy because Kamala’s economy is so fan-friggin-tastic, that consumers are afraid to “spend cash on discretionary purchases like hardware.”
So in a single week, these Kamala-endorsed policies have killed about 23,000 jobs.
Of course this is just the tip of the iceberg, because CVS also announced they’re closing 900 stores, and Rite Aid filed for bankruptcy and closed 520 of its stores.
So that’s Kamala’s Economy killing another 25,000 jobs.
Earlier this summer, we lost 559 stores from the gigantic retailer Conn’s Inc—killing another 3,800 jobs.
We also lost 600 Family Dollar stores, 149 Big Lots stores, and 113 Foot Locker stores—leaving over ten thousand Americans without a job.
But hold on, because Kama-lama-ding-dong ain’t done yet!
In the last four years, we’ve also seen Sears shut their doors for good, as well as Lord & Taylor, Revlon, David’s Bridal, Tuesday Morning, Party City, Cineworld—which was Regal Cinemas—Jenny Craig, Christmas Tree Shops, and Yellow Corporation all go out of business—with Bed Bath & Beyond forced to close all their stores, get bought out, and sell their products exclusively online.
Again—this is just scratching the surface, because there’s also Macy’s, which has closed over 123 stores, and Best Buy, which has closed over 30 stores, Gap, over 350 stores, and Target, which closed multiple stores over safety concerns in hard blue, Democrat-run cities rampant with crime, like Portland, San Francisco, and New York.
There’s also store closures at Kohl’s, Joann Fabrics, Nordstrom—and even the mega-giant Wal-Mart has been forced to close dozens of stores across the country.
Sounds like Kamalanomics—to coin a term—is just about the best thing you can have besides terminal cancer.
Because the truth is, Kamala is cancer—for the country, and for the economy.
Remember: we’re talking about the most liberal, far-left extremist in the nation—worse than avowed socialist Bernie Sanders.
Her policies—and I say hers, because again, she’s taking credit for them and reminds everyone that she was a major player in Biden’s regime—her policies decimated the US economy over the last four years.
As a preview for what’s to come if she’s installed, she fully endorses the communist Green New Deal, and wants to ban fossil fuels and get rid of all gas cars by 2030!
She wants to raise taxes on the wealthiest Americans—who already pay 76-percent of all income tax.
How much is their fair share?
She wants to tax corporations even more, killing more jobs, raising prices, and punishing Americans with even worse inflation than the 40-year highs we’re seeing today.
Just look at this chart—our energy costs 34-percent more under Kombucha Harris; gas is up almost 40-percent, and electricity for our homes is 31-percent more expensive thanks to her policies.
And grocery costs are a nightmare: cereal costs 22 percent more, vegetables 27 percent more, flour costs 35 percent more and staples like eggs—which were down 5 percent under Trump, are up almost 70 percent since Kamala took office!
These are critical expenses that hurt all Americans, and are only going to get worse.
Kamala desperately wants to impose both a death tax and a capital gains tax—which would obliterate home owners in America.
She supports the “Medicare for All” bill, wants to eliminate private health insurance, and has said she wants to provide free health care for illegal aliens.
Paid for by you and me, of course—who do not have access to that free health care.
We lost 12 trillion dollars because of lockdowns and mandatory business closures that she supports.
This is a number that’s hard to wrap your head around, but between 2021 and today—the time period Joe and the bimbo have been in office, we’ve lost around four million small businesses.
Four million small businesses simply vanished because our tyrannical government told them they couldn’t work.
That means 12-percent of small businesses closed forever—these weren’t temporary shut downs.
These businesses are gone for good.
This is after 2020, mind you—after Trump left office, these closures are a direct result of the Democrats and their monumentally, apocalyptically destructive policies.
And since then, her regime has imposed $1.7 trillion dollars of regulations on the businesses that did manage to survive!
Kamala is the anti-business, anti-American economic-kryptonite that will seal our doom.
Kamala is death to America and the American dream.
And if they successfully steal the election on November 5th like they’re planning, then Kamala will make the four years look like a vacation, as we all stand in line waiting for our government-rationed bread handouts.
