Pugjesus doesnt seem to understand that you can elect people with a D by their name who will vote with republicans on critical votes. But hey as long as the D team wins on election day, thats all that matters I guess, right Pug?
Right? We elected Biden and he failed. Not trying to say he is a bad person or meant to blahblah - he simply failed at dealing with Trump. And that includes all the online narratives funded by foreign governments and Elon Musk in the hundreds of millions if not even more.
Like the Dems had control, they failed. And as a people, WE failed, because we let bad leaders into office, whose qualifications are fundraising, kissing ass to rich people, and making speeches. They aren't coming up with ideas, they aren't leading.
Because they are status quo. They aren't progressive. They are same-ers. So after Jan6, they said "let's keep stuff the same," and they kept Merrick Garland and the stupid Mueller report and so many more things I can't even handle thinking about because it's such an absolute gross failure of their main job in office. And he will die for it most likely, which is pretty sad, and not something he wanted obviously. But he's old as fuck, and good at kissing ass, so he listened to whoever that wanted the same stuff, and made his fancy speeches, and we got fucked. Like he's that really nice math teacher that absolutely sucks at teaching math, that I don't want to hate, but he made us fail by not doing his job.
And the Dems failed yet again to deliver a fair primary, which is how we got Kamala, and boy people did not like that one bit
People liked when they switched to Kamala. Then Kamala embraced Trumps 2020 platform and her popularity plummeted.
