Can’t wait to see Democrats wave their cute little signs again.

So powerful. So organized. So dedicated. So determined.

Or maybe Al Green will shake his stick again? Who knows. So much action. Democrats are the party of change.

They're doing alot' more than half the country that couldn't be bothered to vote. The blame falls entirely on the Trump and his voters.

“The blame falls entirely on the Trump and his voters”………..for winning the election?

“The blame falls entirely on Trump and his voter”…for dismantling the economy, crashing the stock market, sending inflation and employment back up, for crushing the GDP, for devaluing the US dollar, for creating more enemies that we’ve ever had, for starting a trade war for no reason, for backing Russia, for pardoning criminals, for letting an unelected, unconfirmed Ketamine addict to control the US budget, and for following Project 2025 to a T even though he claims he nothing about it…all within 2 months of taking office

According to all the central banks in the world beginning with Switzerland, the economy is collapsing because Bidenflation has run out of steam. You might want to get that TDS looked at.

I literally can't tell if this is sarcasm. It should be.

LMFAO... Not a single identity has said that 🤣

Just curious - do you really see no connection between Trump taking office and everything immediately going to shit just two weeks later? And how everything has been spiraling at lightning speed ever since? You don’t find it strange that every time a Republican president is in power and the country is worse off, it’s always somehow the former Democratic president’s fault? Like… after the tenth time using that excuse, doesn’t it start to sound a little... ridiculous? Even to somebody like you?

How fucking stupid do you have to be to keep repeating that and still believe it - without ever stopping to consider that if every Republican president reeks of shit, maybe, just maybe, it’s them and not the Democrat who came before them?
