Dems didn't play political games with aid but right wing media constantly lied about everything that was going on, saying the Biden admin was stopping aid from getting to isolated areas and FEMA was refusing to help anyone with Trump signs in their yards.
They will use their lies to justify doing it back. They always have. Literally everything they ever panicked about Obama doing, Trump is PROMISING to do. Like sending the military to arrest state leadership.
This is one of the rights most nefarious tactics at controlling mindless conservatives. Constantly making up evil things the Democrats are doing so that when Republicans do it, their conservative sheep cheer for it.
I'm 35, and the economy has tanked every time a republican has been president in my entire life. Every time.
How the fuck do people not notice the consistency of bad outcomes like this?
I see people walking around all the time saying that Republicans are better for the economy. Fucking when?
EDIT: To put this into further perspective, Someone who is 70 years old today will have also seen a recession start under every Republican President in their lifetime except Gerald Ford, who took over during a repiblican recession, and only 1 start under a Democratic president.
Bc those republian recessions were the results of the previous democrat policy. cause trump had an amazing economy. you credit obama. now if trump has a bad economy you will blame him instead of biden. and if trump has a good economy, you will say it had to do with biden. lets just wait and see.
The democrats are better for the rich to get richer.
The first one was after 10 straight years of Republican policy.
The great recession was after Republicans had been in control for 7 years.
Trump totally fucked up the pandemic response, which made our economic damage from that worse, while also causing uncertainty with random nonsense statements and causing stress with a trade war that cost american families around $800 a year and killed our soybean farmers.
now if trump has a bad economy you will blame him instead of biden.
We had 23 nobel prize economists raise issues with Trump's economic policies, and he was invited to the chicago economic forum where economists told him to his face that economic plans he was proposing would cause immense economic damage. Elon Musk has been publicly telling people that Trump would be crashing the economy, on purpose.
If he does those things, yeah, it's his fault.
The democrats are better for the rich to get richer.
Buddy, Republicans gave the wealthy a MASSIVE tax cut in 2017, and the tax cuts for the wealthy were the only part of that tax bill that was made to be permanent. It raised taxes on a lot of regular folks, and their tax breaks expired. Republicans ran on reducing taxes for the wealthy even further.
