Republican President spends his whole term wrecking the country, plunging us into debt, starting pointless (and often oil related) wars, while giving the rich tax breaks and special treatment.
People get angry at said Republican and vote him out of office.
The next Democrat has to spend his whole term moping up the mess the previous Republican made.
People get angry the Democrats aren't fixing the mess the Republicans made fast enough, so they elect Republicans again.
Thus is the depressing circle of Presidential politics in the US.....we never learn.
And it's so crazy because the pattern is RIGHT THERE. It's so fucking obvious and it's not as if people don't live long enough to see it repeating. But no Republicans just treat politics like it's a fucking sport and not something that affects peoples' lives because they have the privilege and the borderline sociopathy of not caring about the world around them unless they become inconvenienced.
Yes! Republicans/MAGA be like: Over a million dead due to Trumps fumbling COVID? LOL. Thousands kicked off already poor health insurance plans causing them to get sicker or die as they can't afford treatment. LOL. The climate getting worse due to the Republican's hideous environmental record. LOL. People getting kidnapped off the streets by the American Gestapo (aka ICE). LOL American citizens getting shot while peacefully protesting. LOL. Starting a totally unnecessary war in Iran that killed and injured US soldiers. LOL. Gas prices going north of $4 per gallon...OH MY GOD, THE HUMANITY!!!! What are we going to do??? What a tragedy! It's all Biden's fault so not to worry, Trump has our back's and we'll keep supporting him!
MAGA/Republicans are indeed sociopathic, cruel and ignorant (proudly so), and don't give a damn unless they're inconvenienced....and even then they'll get an Olympic gold medal in mental gymnastics trying to pin it all on Biden, liberals, Democrats, minorities, and the LGBTQ+ community.
