    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?

        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.

      🤦‍♀️
