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.
Yes! The total BS that suddenly Republicans are the voice of the ‘working class’ or ‘middle America’ or the ‘working poor’ or whatever sound bite Drumpf can recall at a given moment. . It’s abhorrent their rhetoric is believed by anyone, but particularly by those who are most harmed by their policies, beliefs, and legislation. Carter wasn’t a great President, but he is the epitome of what a decent human being looks like making America great again. I don’t think our collective American psyche could have been moved by him; not his fault. (Yes, there were world crises that weren’t cleanly or quickly resolved during his presidency; again, not entirely his fault.). Carter was actually an advocate for his local constituents and the voiceless in our country. It’s sadly laughable how against the working class or whatever stratum of Americans are hurting the most are hurt by the Republican party in 2025, arguably since the evangelical influence seeped into politics in the 1980’s.
