It’s also just stability and cooperation. Every other president came in with the idea that we were all working towards the same goal with different ideas on how to get there. They’ve taken the country in good faith from their predecessor and generally carried forth close to their vision on the things they were working on. No matter which side you’re on, the things that get attention are usually done in an intelligent way that makes sense. It’s generally better to shift the agenda by focusing on new things than to focus on the things that were fixed literally last year.

This president has the exact opposite behavior. He’s aggressively destroying anything Biden or Obama have built, down to straight up trashing assets of the USPS (including mail sorters).

Well, yeah. We weren’t exactly quiet about it.

I’m hoping they’ve quietly been working on individual Republicans. It’d make sense to do this very quietly.

I have no evidence of this. Of course we wouldn’t. But it also seems like it should have happened by now. Was shoving the military into LA not enough?

The point is that you want to discourage/split the vote for next election.

You’re doing the same the Fox News and talk radio did to Hillary Clinton over 20 years.

Last night. I’ve been doing this search about once a week for months.

True, but his main point stands. It’s not just this. Every single time the Trump admin does something shitty, one of the first three comments is about how it’s the Democrats fault.

Lemmy is being manipulated.

I’m hoping the truth can prevail over the very loud noise. But if five people come after me to argue against Democrats, what will most people in here end up believing?

I’m fine with criticizing Democrats when it’s specific and targeted. This one kind of gets there. But, you know, isn’t there a bigger issue?

Yes, correct. Absolutely. Because there are ramifications way fucking beyond that one instance.

Similarly, if my neighbor’s dog sometimes pisses on the petunias, a gun would absolutely solve the problem, yet despite being extremely effective it may not be the best solution.

I truly believe that. It’s hard for people to see when the “majority” opinion is so loud and constant.

It’s why social media is dangerous.

All this shit and you threaten fucking Democrats?!?
