Do you have faith in the Biden Administration and the federal government to solve these issues before the holidays? Or do you believe empty shelves will be a major problem this holiday season? New reports in Denver that milk cases are empty at grocery stores.

First, I have no faith in the Biden Administration solving this problem, which affects the ports on the West Coast, primarily LA andLong Beach. The Trucking Assoc has pointed out that the California rules regarding trucks that are complaint for picking up at those ports have cut the availability of trucks by 50%.
The ports along the Gulf Coast and East Coast have no major issues with a backlog. Unfortunately it will take some time and money to reroute ships through the Panama Canal to the Eastern Ports. Gov. DeSantis of FL has pointed out to shippers that there is capacity in FL to handle this issue.
Again the trucking aspect of delivery is the main issue in the backlog.
One of those cargo ships has the last load of chainsaws destined for CA. I hope that everyone in CA is stocking up on very long extension cords for their lawnmowers and blowers.
Inflation has come to America, or stagflation. It is also spreading around the world. Combined with food shortages due to floods and drought, military experts are worried that these will lead to famine and possible fighting.

Shall we review some policies from TRUMP......the last sentence or two is the "tell"....time to pay the piper,
AFTER we have experienced poor decision making from the past POTUS.
President Biden has been in office for nine months but the Left is still obsessing about President Trump and his policies. Do you honestly believe President Biden cannot repeal Trump's tariffs? And are you sure he even wants to? China has been threatening Taiwan ever since Joe took office, is now the time to cozy up to Xi?

The press started asking in DC where the Secretary of Transportation is during these backups, and only now is it revealed that Mayor Pete has been on paternity leave since mid-August. Shouldn't you come back early when ships are waiting four weeks to get unloaded? Or are you hiding on leave because you realize you are a pretender and have no clue on how to solve the current crisis?

Every policy of Trump’s that Biden has overturned has hurt Americans. Go for it Joe, ride that wave of failure and see how many Americans you can drown.
The left is angry because they are now being judged by the content of their character and not by the color of their skin.
So we have an MIA VP who is supposed to fix the border mess and we have good old Mayor Pete who is supposed to be in charge of transportation out for months for maternity leave. Really? We have the biggest supply chain crisis in decades and this guy needs to be home that long? Is he helping with "chest feeding"?

Rick, Fred you are both being way too hard on Pete. Shame on both of you.
You both know how hard and panful birthing persons with uteruses claim child birth is. JUST TRY TO IMAGINE how hard it must be for birthing persons who do not have a uterus.
