That’s what I’m saying but people keep ignoring the statistics.

Same thing people have done with re-electing trump! Look at how many farmers still back him, even though his tariffs killed them the 1st time and they had to be bailed out by trump 🤷‍♀️

It’s very important to be aware of and state your cognitive biases when you see them so you don’t wind up in the opposite side of the echo chamber

Like, when you see a blind spot that you didnt see before, it’s okay to clock it and be mindful of it

It’s real easy to get blind to stuff because of your own cognitive biases. That shit’s weird like that

Tariffs didn't do shit and you want to talk about bailouts? How about Obama bailing out big banks? Farmers work their asses off and banks are fuckoffs.

u/middleageslut 23h ago

The trump tariffs put a lot of farmers out of business bro. It isn’t even a question.

Yes, Obama cleaned up Bush Jr’s mess by bailing out wall street. I wish he had done it differently, but he kept America alive and put regulations in place that ensured it wouldn’t happen that way again.

Trump has vowed to end those regulations.

This isn’t hard, no one who loves this country votes Republican. Period.

Because biden did so well..... fuck off.

u/middleageslut 23h ago

Biden did really well. If you are too propagandized to be in touch of reality you should fuck off.

May you have the day you voted for. Retribution for Trumps enemies and tax breaks for the ultra wealthy, or prosperity for all.

u/Academic_Carrot_3808 23h ago

See how they won't call out what Dump had said, but they're bringing up Obama? Then, they had the nerve to say he was born to immigrants. Like, wtf! His mom was a white woman born in America. These racist pos never call out Trump for what he's done and said, but they love to call out other people. These are the same people that would let Trump touch their wives and daughters, then turn a blind eye to it. Nothing but a shit show. They're nothing but a bunch of nobodies to Trump. 🤣🤣

1

u/middleageslut 23h ago

They can’t handle the fact that Trump hates them too.

2

u/Academic_Carrot_3808 22h ago

Truth. The man literally said he doesn't care about them. He just wants their vote.

1

u/AverageJohn1212 19h ago

Tell them that. Starting to think these people can't hear and listen because they really are stupid.

It's a slight possibility people. It's okay to call a spade a spade.

1

u/Academic_Carrot_3808 16h ago

I did. One even told me I was lying, and I never experienced racism from Maga.

These people are truly cooked, inside and out.

u/Jolly_Green_Giant78 15h ago

Just like you allow Biden to sniff your daughter's hair and nibble on her toes while telling her that she looks like she's nineteen when she's nine. Cool story bro.

u/NoSleepZombie2235 19h ago

You seem kind of triggered. Perhaps you are in need of safe space for all your emotions?

u/AverageJohn1212 19h ago

Why the fuck don't comments like this get moderated? But people choose to swim in my profile history... Starting to feel like Reddit is high school level smfh.

u/waynebradie189472 20h ago

Uhh there aren't regulations in place to prevent 2008 again.

1

u/middleageslut 19h ago

You are technically right, but still very very wrong. There isn’t one regulation, there are two regulations and one government agency.

It is called the Dodd-Frank Wall-Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act. It was signed into law in 2010 by President Obama.

Its guiding purpose is to prevent another 2008 style financial / housing crisis.

It is over seen by the CFPB, or Consumer Financial Protections Bureau. Which was ALSO created by the Obama administration specifically to over see Dodd-Frank act and to overhaul and provide teeth for:

RESPA or the Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act, which technically goes back to 1974, but was overhauled by - you guessed it - President Obama to protect Americans from unscrupulous actions of banks and lenders.

Donald Trump has vowed to destroy all 3, because, you know, he is an outsider, looking out for the little guy.

Next I suppose you are going to tell me that there is no federal program to insure your bank deposits either? That First Lady Donald has vowed to do away with so your bank account can be wiped out with a run on your bank 1929 style - which - with a totally unregulated financial industry isn’t guaranteed to happen?

This is why government and education matter, and why no one takes you people seriously.

u/waynebradie189472 18h ago

So bubbles burst all the time and we have a couple looming. Tech and over all debt would be the big ones. But sure, sub prime lending for homes is fixed. Wait till you read about the investment strategies of hedge funds that is totally not going to bite retirement in the face or anything.

Something, something educate yourself on the financial institution.

u/Remarkable-Bug-8069 1d ago

Tariffs caused 400k job losses, all before Covid.

u/69nailpounder 1d ago

No they didn't

u/Remarkable-Bug-8069 1d ago

Yes, they did. Open your eyes.

At least they kept their farms unlike what Obama did.

China has been bullying our farmers for years. The world is Dependant on us not the other way around. And The increased subsidization onky needed to occur for 2 cycles.

u/AverageJohn1212 19h ago

No the world is not lmfao. Grow up.

u/Historical-Juice-314 1d ago

They’re blind to him and the other nonsense crap he pulled!! All along they just dogged on Trump for distractions yet these 🐑 are still in awe over his bs

He’s our God. Deal with it ahole

How could you miss your god? He’s still there in the basement calling all the shots 🙄 he’s not left yet

u/Lizardking619 1d ago

Yeah I think this ideology democrats are pushing went too far and the American people had enough.Imo the last five or six years have been pretty chaotic around the world and at home.I am willing to reserve judgment for the next four years and who knows what if we are better off than when he started at the end of it.If he and his team fail they should be judged accordingly.

1

u/Due-Survey-4040 1d ago

Because they don’t fit the narrative. Clinton (Bill) was strong on border security and deportation as well. Most of his policies would be right-leaning in 2024…

1

u/DarkPolumbo 20h ago

The president's racial identity matters more than their performance to so many people. It's disgusting.

What happened to judging by content of their character, rather than the color of their skin?

I'll say this, if someone dared to post a banner that said "Anything but a black president", they'd be strung up by their gonads. But this thread is apparently OK because white man bad.

u/Snake_Doc16 18h ago

Careful, the Reddit hive mind will downvote anyone who thinks logically

1

u/Relevant-Law-804 1d ago

People only want to hear what they want to hear and will never concede to things that go against their chosen leader.

If they can't admit the faults along with the accomplishments they are simply sycophants not supporters.

u/jamietmob1 1d ago

I don't know. I'm a huge Obama supporter, and I've never once tried to explain away his deportation record. The time to complain about it was while it was happening, not years afterwards. History is what history it's, so why try to explain it away. Own that shit! The good and the bad.

u/Relevant-Law-804 1d ago

It's really sad to proclaim to be an intellectual and also be so partisanly biased that simple factually reported events on every news channel go ignored.

Ex: Dems have been reeee'ing about Pete Hegseth being accused of alcoholism yet Kamaltoe Harris appeared drunk at every campaign and literally posted photos of her drinking wine with her family multiple times (including the AM with "nieces" pic) as well as did no less than 2 campaign cameos in which she drank beer (on Stephen Colbert and again with Gov Gretchen Wilson at a literal bartop).

They also ignored all of 1st Gentequeer Doug Emhoff's woman beating and nanny banging philandering (including a paid NDA abortion) yet screech about Trump non-stop.

At least ABC got smacked down with the $16 million defamation suit over it.

u/pogoli 1d ago

And what does the right expect of a person that agrees that something Obama did was bad? They declare that he shouldn’t have been president, should have been removed from office, jailed, blah blah…. while simultaneously refusing to acknowledge any of the positive things he did. It’s like why bother….

1

u/Relevant-Law-804 1d ago

If the shoe fits...

But joking aside, in all fairness can you present some things you think the "right" would agree are good regardless of which POTUS did it? (In this case Obama)

u/ElderBHoldenCox 1d ago

Reddit: Reagan is the worst president in the history of the world, and Obama is the best.

Anyone who has read Obama’s books: Obama refers to himself as a Reagan Fanboy and describes his administration as “slightly to the right of Reagan.”

Reddit: downvote to oblivion and spam Reddit Cares

u/Late-Pie-146 20h ago

Do you have an excerpt that supports this claim?

1

u/Difficult_Tough_7015 1d ago

We didn't ignore shit. We spoke up. The articles are still probably online, for sure archives, but sure make shit up lol. We spoke and he listened. He apologized, admitted he went about it the wrong way.

Ever heard Trump do that?

Furthermore, Obama didn't run his shit sheared campaign on "dey took er jobs!" Like your idiot of an orange freak rapist did. He made a bad call. There's a difference.

Trying to compare trump to Obama is like trying to compare Jose to Jesus

u/Jazzlike-Travel-8851 1d ago

The furthest we need to go to compare who was better is the rapist thing. Trump is a rapist. Should be end of story. Anyone who isn’t a rapist or predator is a better person than him by default. No point in comparing anything else. If I did the shit trump did, my whole family would disown me. But half voted for him. Knowing who he was. The same people who were sickened by Ezra millers crimes and others but fine with a dude who has done 100x worse shit being elected as president. I for real feel like I’m in the twilight zone. Like I’m missing something about Trump. Something fundamental. When I try to genuinely engage with these people to learn why they are on his dick so hard I get no answers. I don’t think some of them even know why they like him. They site policies sometimes but the facts show that everything he’s done has made things worse. What am I missing? When was this time that was so great we wanna go back to? Why do people think prices will lower when companies are already raising prices? Why don’t people care about the crimes he has committed? Why did it take after the election for people to research tariffs? I’m so lost as to why people love him and every time I try to talk to these people and see what I’m missing, I just get irrationality or gas lighting. I have yet to be convinced he’s a good guy and the fact he’s a rapist(and possibly more), I sure I never will. There’s no world where you could convince me that a rapist should be president of this country. But here we are and we are all going to find out.

What are we making up? Just look it up on google. Articles will come up.

u/Difficult_Tough_7015 1d ago

You're making up that "we ignore statistics." I said "we didn't ignore it. We spoke up. He listened."

You're the one that needs to look articles up. While you're at it take a reading comp class.

1

u/zDedly_Sins 1d ago

Quite honestly no. Look in my history. I have said this before and the reactions are not so great.

u/Difficult_Tough_7015 1d ago

That's fine, but don't say "we" ignored it. We didn't.

Because most people would never check anything for themselves, they would just repeat like parrots, whatever their friends or fake news like CNN would say...
