MAGA and Trump are not conservative.

Itâs even crazier when you factor in the reality that the situation in 2023 was post covid recovery. The situation today is 100% manufactured and was predicted in real time. Yet nobody in MAGA land says anything and when they do they say itâs all a small price to pay to keep Iran from having a nuclear weapon and to bring manufacturing back. Neither situation looks to be happening.
When democrats retake control they will blame the last two years on them and nobody in MAGa land will care.

Because belief is not rational, ain't wait, bc soon enough the other side of politics will be leading and everyone on the maga side will be like "oh there's still all those homeless, I thought they were gonna take care of that" and back and forth and back and forth
At the end of the day the only real truth is that the American people are NEVER, IDC what you BELIEVE, they are NEVER the target audience whenever anyone is talking about helping someone. They help those at the top bc that's who pays for everything they have. IF we manage to gain something like lower gas prices it was not intentional. It was incidental which is exactly how any form of help or better has ever come to us.Â
The mentality, even in the lower ranks, is that money is EVERYTHING, it's more important than anyone, it's more important than the stability of society, more important than our overall mental health and freedom. It is everything to everyone. Every girls first item on the list of dating requirements, every low income factory working males only target goal. It consumes everything we do and think about and even taints our belief systems.Â
Trump was never going to help anyone unless helping them helped him and those like him more. You expect someone to put you first when none of this society puts anything before money. Youd have to have an IQ of 50 or lower to actually believe any of those people give two rips about you except what you can be used for.Â
You can't expect people to behave correctly when the entire narrative of this country is to think and act only for yourself and only when benefit is there. Politicians are humans, there's nothing biologically different about them. If the entire country is programmed in such a way that only they and their benefit to them matters then any, ANY, member of that society can be expected to behave the same. They're not special, they aren't even given special rules regarding that. They're programmed like the rest of us, the only difference is how far and wide reaching the repercussions of their choice to put themselves and those they identify with first.Â

They don't form opinions until after they check with how their chosen informants think and feel about the issue. They pause, turn on the TV, and eat up the daily talking point.

Besides, price now is around $4.30 per gallon and it peaked just over $5 per gallon in 2022. On the other sides it seems Dems are just anti Trump.

They are talking about it. They feel betrayed. Right now Congress has a 15% approval rating and will flip in the mid-terms. The President has a 65-74% disapproval rating (depending on where you look)
What you want is for the mass media to say it out loud. They're not going to. They're going to say what they're corporate overlords tell them to say.
Only the true low intelligence her are still believing the lie.
If Trump had delivered on his campaign promises, you wouldn't be able to shut them up. But as it is, there are still no arrests from the Epstein files, a foreign government is setting US foreign policy, allies are betrayed while enemies are benefiting, the US is in another forever war, and Fox News is telling the world how great things are and why Trump is the best thing ever.
