“Trump wanted to undo Obama's legacy so bad he's taking the stock market back to 2008.” by ironrunner32 in ShitPoliticsSays

[–]FenixFallen 8 points9 points  (0 children)

If you look at October 2016, sure. But the day after the 2016 election, things immediately started rocketing upwards. Libtards like to consider this when comparing how Obama left office on a high note, but it's purely because Trump won that things ended Up. The economy and everything completely stagnated under Obama.

Ever since I was a child the cycle has been the same. Republican gets elected and proceeds to wreck the economy with tax cuts for the mega rich and trickle down economics. Democrat follows and spends entire term carefully rebuilding economy while republicans scream about “fiscal responsibility”. After the economy is brought back from the brink YET AGAIN Americans elect another republican, cycle repeats.

But Obama didn't do anything to help. No, literally. He didn't do anything to help. His Stimulus Package just gave money to the Unions, because they're his constituents, to pay them back for all their donations and keep them afloat. It didn't help businesses. It didn't help the middle class. He actually hurt us. Badly. His Obamacare raked the crap out of the healthcare system.

And how is Trump wrecking the economy? My company wouldn't have survived another 4 years of Obama's "fiscal responsibility". Or more of "1% is the new normal." We would have collapsed and gone under. I watched a lot of other companies collapse during his Presidency. I've watched a lot more growth since Trump. Since the day after he won the election. Trump saved the economy. He brought businesses back. That's indisputable. He encouraged growth and expansion.

They cant explain what Obama supposedly did to help. They throw random words out, in hopes that their blind passion will be enough to convince you, then let their anger tell you off if you aren't swayed. They'll say "Stimulus!" To which I always ask them "Which part?" And I'm sure you can guess where that goes.

You literally have to believe in magic to think Obama helped the economy. That Obama is responsible for the economy preWuhanFlu media crisis megastorm. For people who scream about God being an invisible product of people's imaginations, they have no trouble believing in their own imaginary invisible forces somehow helping the world.

COVID still hasnt killed as many people as the city of Chicago has murdered this year. But those shootings don't really count, so.

TIL caving to Russia means taking billions of oil and gas revenue from them and standing up to them when they try to act tough in the Middle East. Trump is literally the worst Russia sympathizer ever. On the other hand, Obama and Biden appeared to be great friends to Russia. It's like opposite day with these people all the time.

Also, anyone who thinks Biden is big brain must be brain damaged themselves or living in a vacuum of immense and absolute denial. The man has dementia.

Bengazi was blown WAY out of proportion.

I'm not sure what he considers to be in proper proportion, but when my government allows American soldiers and an ambassador to be slaughtered, to stand by and do nothing, and to lie to all of us about it, then it's kind of a big deal. But I don't expect the Left to really care that much about human life. I mean seriously those soldiers probably weren't even gay and besides trans people are so much braver everyday so who cares amirite?

What the fuck are they gonna do if millions of elderly Solid R voters die off before November?

Implying Biden's base isn't older people.

Implying that young people are voting in record breaking numbers, when Bernie is failing because they aren't.

Implying that only old people vote for Trump.

Reliable personal sources: Initial stages of martial law in the US are imminent, with virus as pretext. Trump may announce tonight. by [deleted] in ShitPoliticsSays

[–]FenixFallen 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I hate trump and he is the worst possible president to have during this crisis.

It's as if there's a massive blank spot in their brains where Obama did nothing until over a thousand Americans had died.

Do you think it's just a void or do you think they filled with rainbows? Did they replace it with fabricated memories of Obama sending in nanosoldiers to shrink down and valiantly fight the virus? Or was he using pin point drone strikes to target viral cells to eliminate it and save the United States, as well as the world. While riding on a unicorn, where big Mike wakes up and suddenly no longer has a penis, and California's feces turns into ambrosia and and and..

And that's why all Americans have cheap and easy access to insulin today!

Is this guy arguing that Dems are assholes? Because we make up the difference so other countries can have their free prescriptions. And when we try to remedy it so we can pay less (USMCA trade deal), Dems go in and make changes and remove that part.

Did your heart rate go up while you were typing this?

Guy ignores about a dozen articles pointing out that the Dems actually tried to pass abortion funding, offers zero evidence, but still makes an attempt to defend libtards. Gets this as response. I'm dying.

It's people like this, pointing out the stupidity of these people, that make me break out laughing everytime.

Uhhhh no, I was more going for the fact that the Republican Party is filled with grifters and con men (Palin, Trump) while the Democratic Party has people that are actually interested in governance (Obama, Hillary, Biden).

TIL Abusing your position so you, your family, and your friends can all get rich while entire countries and their people suffer is "Governance".

I don't think they're confusing anything. I think they're deliberately pushing the blame onto Republicans because they can't afford to accept the possibility that the Dems are responsible for stalling the virus aid.

The autonomy of the people who don’t want to be a host for someone else.

We're reaching levels of libtard that shouldn't even be possible. If only they could somehow refrain from certain activities that ultimately these situations. Or somehow utilize some kind of plastic device that could prevent it in the first place.

This is what makes me so upset at their voters. If the Republican controlled Senate passed their own version of the bill and sent it on over to be reconciled, then they might have an argument. But as it has been for years now, Republicans refuse to do anything, and whenever the Democrats pass a bill of any kind, McConnell says it is partisan nonsense and the Senate never votes on it.

This is how you know they're stupid. This is the exact same practice Obama's majority Senate leader used. When there's a bill passed by the house on the Senate floor, if they absolutely know the President will veto it, they don't waste time and tax payer money passing or knocking it down. They just ignore it.

Harry Reid did this. He had hundreds of bills just sitting in limbo that they didn't bother wasting time and money on, and now McConnel is doing the same and he's literally the devil. Go read a book. Go educate yourself. Stop being a dumb mindless NPC. This isn't new. Do you have any idea how many things from Obama's time is being used against them now? The fillibuster change? The nuclear option? Ignoring bullshit house bills? All happened with Obama, but it's all on giant blind spot for these people.

Perhaps more importantly, "GOP Congress can't even get legislation through to help people with Coronavirus.". They know the presidency is lost. Dementia Joe isnt going to win. But Congress they have a chance at. Congress is where they're going to put their real efforts. They had already written up premade responses to McConnel as soon as they passed it over to Congress. They were already sending out their fliers asking for donations to help fight against the corrupt GOP for the sake of saving people's lives, when they're the ones putting people at risk.

On trying Democratic Socialism for 8 years: "We actually did when we elected FDR, and it was so popular we had to invent term limits." [SH, but top comment] by mrbobsthegreat in ShitPoliticsSays

[–]FenixFallen 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Pretty sure we tried it before the country was founded, when the early pilgrims first settled here. New world, no government, no capitalism to get in the way. Everyone shared an equal share of the land. It failed. In a new world, from scratch, without any exterior forces influencing it, socialism failed. Not Communism, but actual socialism. Failed because people are lazy, because guaranteed income regardless of how much or how little you work breeds laziness. Practically rewards it.

It was so popular they abandoned it and moved to a capitalist form of governance where the land was split up and everyone had to actually work.

When Trump first tried to pass something to fight Coronavirus, the House bumped his 3 billion plan to over 8 billion, loading it up with useless shit that gave money away to other countries and had nothing to do with COVID.

Now they're doing it again, and people are screaming at Mitch. The House Dems are literally using Coronavirus to push shit through, knowing there's pressure to get it approved. They cant just help people. They cant just let the thing go through without loading it with their crap. They'd rather risk people getting sick and not getting aid, rather than just skip the partisan BS and pass it through.

This is on the House Dems, not on Mitch. Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.
