Political rants

Please, you missed the subtext of what I was trying to say. See, here's how the democratic party works. There's corporate dems, there's liberals, and then there are progressives. The corperate dems? They're centrists. They're nothing but the status qou. (This is the camp Biden is in.) The Liberals? As long as you make them think you are sticking to their ideals, they'll buy anything. The progressives? We try to hold our party accountable. AND THEY NEVER listen to us, because they want to keep their power. And likewise, I was supplementing my diet with wild dandelion leaves, walnuts, and cat tails because what little I was able to save over the years was being spent to keep my brother alive, and my meds. And I couldn't bother with food. If you think Trump was the start of it? No. Because I came of age around 2011. Remember the recession? Yeah, those of us that went to college around that time have never had a chance to properly save. I've never owned a house, likely never will. No, the Dems do NOT have all the problems, and I'm not about to tell you that the progressives are smart enough to figure anything out either. But fucking hell, no one else is actually offering solutions. And to me, taking that trillion tax dollars that go straight into the pockets of overseas oil companies for our navy to go out and protect their shipping lanes and putting it into systems that actually help the people? They're massive enough, so shouldn't they actually be paying US for that service? That's a start. Why the hell do we need to pay them? How come Liberatarians, Progressives, and Independence are the only ones talking about stuff like that? Meanwhile the house and press debate about whether or not we should get another stimulus for basically a year (still ongoing) and whatever outrage a malignant narcisist posts on twitter.

I like free money as much as anyone does but this trillion dollar stimulus wasnt needed. Or rather it was put into the wrong resources and because dems own the entire country at this point there is almost no way for reps to check them on that we just gotta sit back and watch them tank our country down with even more debt. I hold everyone responsible for their actions. Yes trump has fone bad but it isnt as the media says he did. Even i got pissed off at trump for the handling of covid. But no one else did any better themselves. What i want is a new government comprised of people who actually CARE about the country. Not doing things cuz they were bought off by corporations. What is the point of all this "clean energy" stuff if not for other countries to profit off us for the sake of "bettering the environment" i dont think anyone in the democratic party rn has the best interests in this country. 100% and while i dont think trump has all the answers its at least a step away from being slaves to other countries and paying them money while our own citizens suffer.

Everyone is starting to notice Biden crumbling as president. He has avoided public spotlight the past week because he knows he is failing to reach the benchmarks he promised and more. His administration turns away from this fact acting like it does not exist and the media ignores it going back to making Trump jokes. Articles being published about white supremacy flourishing under the Biden administration rocks people to their cores. Then come to find out the vaccine is filled with dead abortion cells we are injecting into us. People are now regretting their votes for Biden.

Now dont get me wrong biden is answering questions its just he doesnt answer his press conferences and CERTAIN questions. He just runs off stage but at some events he does answer stuff whether those are scripted ones or not who knows. The vaccine thing fake news cuz this has been happening for ages now. Its just now people are starting to learn more about it, whether you let that be a deciding factor on whether to turn antivax or not is on you. But yeah people are regretting biden cuz he shit the bed hard. The dems will throw him under the bus and then put Kamala up as president but the damage is done. This administration has nothing going for it besides anti-trump policies.

Trump didn't really even have a policy to begin with. Unless you consider winging it and promoting his own perceived greatness while delegating authority to white nationalists and the like to be policy, while the Russian Mob blackmails him into whatever. By the way, the debt soared ever higher under Trump, so careful bringing that point up. But yes, there's some things I agree with you there, a lot of those deals weren't cut in the best interest of the US, but when you start making trade wars? Temps like me are the first to go. I'da had a job coming into the start of this year, which really would have helped me going into covid. Granted that was the second job I lost because of his preposed trade policies. I was working at an American Company. Rocky Boots. And I still got shafted due to the Tariffs. Then covid hit, my brother's tumor came back, his chemo started up again (Thus making him a high risk individual, and since I was the only one who could drive him, I qualified for the covid relief too. But the city of Lancaster being what it is, they did every trick in the book to keep me from getting any form of compensation. I'm looking at my W2 and it shows that I made a full $180 for 2020. YOU BET YOUR DAMN SWEET ASS I NEEDED THAT STIMULUS! I needed it three more times, and I sure as hell needed a lot more than $800 dollars. They just passed another, but it's too little too late. My bro's dead, and I'm angry at the ineffectiveness of our former and current representative of the people of this fair country. We don't necessarily need a brand new government. There's actual change happening within the DNC right now. There's groups in the right too that are doing the same thing. For example. Wolf Pack is bipartisan, and their only true goal is to get money out of politics. There's a lot of other things that need to be done to salvage the system. Ending Gerrymandering is a big one. That hurts both parties. Stop fucking defunding the mail system. Also, I never regretted voting for Biden. I knew right off the bat what I was going to get. All progressives knew. Just another status quo neo lib pretending he's so progressive, just like Obama. We planned to primary him out soon as we could.

Gee, feels good to get this shit off my chest.

Yeah best believe imma contest that and provide a source as well https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.bbc.com/news/amp/world-45827430 Trump saw growth economically following obama and then during the pandemic when others said to keep us locked down and he ignored. When i say new government i dont mean change in democracy or anything. Just revisions to how we deal with who represents the american people. We need them to actually represent us. I am sorry for what happened to your brother. But it further eclipses the fact things need to change. So much isnt being done in america to make things perfect we have the power but we let those in the government tell us we dont while selling out. Dems are starting to see just how much these people are corrupt with cuomo and newsome like we as a peopleneed now more than ever to come together to fix this. But we need our representatives to do their part. Which is why i say no more career politicians. No more accepting bribes no more selling out. Make america great again. It isnt a campaign slogan its a fucking reality we need to do this. Alot ofnpeople wanna discredit trump on the things he has done.but he actually HAS done stuff. The covid vaccine for example which was extremely politicized. Remember when pfizer siad they wouldnt have a vaccine available and werent working with trump? Crazy how now there is a vaccine. Like so many people are blind af and just hate trump to hate him. I regret every instance of biden being elected cuz its just 5 steps back from where we were. The only good outcome is that the dems have been exposed as liars and evil people. Literally it.

Rn i feel America is gonna see some big changes i just hope the current administration doesnt dig us too deep before that comes. They are already working on election integrity in places like georgia and such cuz in 2022 they will most likely vote out the majority and make it balanced. Cuz biden has ran wild and showed he has the power to do whatever and still gets nothing done. I wish you luck in your endeavors but like until i can be proven wrong that these thjngs biden are doing are completely necessary, he is the worst option imo.

Getting too it. Reading the article first.
hell_hound7
Yeah basically the article fact checks trump without actually lying straight out and saying he did worse than any other president. He did see some good numbers. While not the best it was the pandemic that caused where we are today.
