@JayAdam68683998@Tammy_23320F It’s called research… The highest widely cited U.S. national average price for regular gasoline while Biden was president was about $5.00–$5.02 per gallon in mid-June 2022.
Look at those examples: Fourteen million primary votes went to Biden; zero went to Harris as the presidential candidate—party bosses just transferred the scepter.
• A real primary would have been messy; a coronation is tidy, fast, and easier to control.
• They spent years calling the other side a threat to democracy, then picked a nominee the same way a court picks a successor.
• Biden was the king they refused to challenge; Harris was the heir they refused to test.
• When the polls turned ugly, loyalty to the sitting president lasted exactly as long as it was useful.
• The party that lectures about “the will of the voters” decided the voters had already spoken—just not about the person actually on the November ballot.
• An open convention might have produced a stronger candidate; it also might have produced a fight they didn’t want to have.
• They didn’t trust primary voters with a choice after June, so they made the choice for them in July.
• Incumbency plus fear of Trump plus fear of intra-party bloodshed equals “here’s your nominee, now clap.”
Well I’ll give you some examples: Fourteen million primary votes went to Biden; zero went to Harris as the presidential candidate—party bosses just transferred the scepter.

@thehealthb0t So 6.5 million McDonald’s hamburgers every day would require roughly 39,000 cattle per month.
Compared to U.S. slaughter
The U.S. slaughters approximately 2.5–3.0 million cattle per month.
Using 3 million as a round figure:
39,000 \div 3,000,000 = 0.013
That’s 1.3%
