u/IHerebyDemandtoPost Trump Told Us Prices Would Plummet 24d ago edited 24d ago

I had people swearing up and up down that Trump was anti-war. Makes me wonder why I even participate in online political discussions.

People on this forum swore up and down that Trump had nothing to do with and did not support project 2025 too. I will give republicans credit, they did a good job of telling voters exactly what they wanted to hear to get their votes (trump said he was going to reduce grocery prices!). Now they have to deliver and I think a lot of people are going to be disappointed.

Doubtful. They will be told why Trumps failure to deliver on all his lies totally isn't his fault and they will roll with it.

Get ready to hear echoes of the "obstructionist Democrats" from the first two years of Trump's first term.

Plus a lot of "bet the Dems are glad they kept the Filibuster" as if the Senate being a legislative graveyard is good for the country.

I remember when democrats were blamed when the GOP couldn’t elect a house speaker in 2023. “Why aren’t you helping!

“Dems are contributing to a dysfunctional government just as much as Republicans.”

God I hated that shit.

Democrats also got blamed for McCarthy getting removed as if McCarthy didn’t talk shit right before the vote to kick him from Speaker.
