I am always puzzled by what they fear. My life was pretty good under Trump. I didn't vote him but that doesn't change nothing major changed under him. We didn't start any new wars. The economy was good. I still can't figure out what I am supposed to fear unless it's just irrational fear.
You know how the economy sucks now? That’s the aftershock of what Trump did.
We all called it a bad idea then to lower interest rates to zero and then we had a global pandemic. What do you do about a recession when you can’t lower interest rates?
Also: Muslim bans, the rise of racists and Nazis in America, 1mil dead from a pandemic because the Motherfucker couldn’t say “wear a mask”, leaking secrets to Russia and god knows who else, hoarding PPE and then reselling it to states, plus the guy is a socially backwards embarrassing blowhard boomer idiot. He doesn’t know how shit works and is yes-men sycophants are in his ear with their own ulterior motives when they’re not busy sucking him off.
I’ll take sleepy joe over that any day of the week.
The supreme Court swung to the right and roe v Wade was overturned, for one major thing. There have been rumblings of attacking same sex marriage, too.
Also there was a coup attempt.
I’m glad scotus went to the right. Finally someone to push Congress to do their jobs.
That's not really how this works in theory or practice, and many people will suffer needlessly in the interim.
Did you hear about that COVID thing? And how ineptly Trump handled it?
I think he handled it very well. We had a vaccine in record time. I am very pleased with the way it was handled.
If Do you honestly think Trump hand anything to do with the vaccine?
Then you're not very smart or observant.
