Americans: “We took all power away from Democrats and gave it to Republicans. Why aren’t Democrats saving us from what we did?”
They had four years to hold the last Trump administration accountable and prevent all this.
Democrats in power: “we’re not going to persecute our political rivals because it would set a bad precedent.”
Republicans in power: “we’re going to persecute our political rivals.”
I agree but what would have also worked is not voting for Trump. But Americans don’t take responsibility.
So the 75 million of us who voted against Trump are responsible for the Americans who voted for Trump? We were supposed to convince everyone to vote for Dems? Isn’t that the Dems job?
Democrats do not take responsibility to put in the effort to win voters. Stop victim blaming.
I agree, they could have stopped the mad man. But right now there’s a mad man going crazy and they’re blaming everyone else. It’s wild.
Yeah, a whole lot of them even still say things like they voted for Donakd “to shake things up”, even as they whine about Democrats not preventing him from doing crazy stuff even they think is stupid and reckless. Well, duh, if you give all the power to the toddler and tie the hands of the adults, bad shit is going to happen, even if it is going to “shake things up”. In other words, a whole lot of people decided to fuck around, and now we all get to “find out” along with these bozos.
🤦♀️
Reminder Democrats passed Trumps budget bill.
I wonder how much of that is due to the impression that Democrats are not really standing up to the thugs in our society (Republicans/conservatives).
Why would they? They are rich, they’re getting a tax cut, they get to keep insider trading. You think they’re gonna stop the gravy train?
You want the billionaires to stop the other billionaires? Lmao. I’m sure they’ll talk about it on the next Epstein express.
Corporate Democrats: “But we re-branded our feckless, pro-corporate messaging to look more like Mandamis?!?”
Lol, yeah, they can try again. Maybe go full bore.
As a non-American I sum it up as this: For the last 50 years (that I am old enough to know about) Democrats don’t have the answer so they are bad. Republicans don’t have the answer but will lie to us every minute of the day to keep us happy so they are good. Then Americans wonder why their country is about to implode.
If this was the case, Republicans would always win and Democrats would always lose.
That’s not the case, though. Recently people just vote for the party that is out of power, because no matter who gets elected everything gets worse. Republicans get elected, everything gets worse, so people vote for Democrats next time. Then the Democrats get elected, everything gets worse, and so people vote for Republicans next time. Over and over until we’re all dead.
