Besides the obvious remarks about “But no more mean tweets” I have to say I am detecting some serious nervousness from the Democrats and Liberals in general. The avalanche of excuses and “explanations why the economy is in shambles, supply is screwed up and inflation is skyrocketing reminds me so much of similar events in Venezuela after Hugo Chavez dug his claws into the country’s economy and transformed it into the “Socialism for the 21st Century.”
We will not see a correction of mistakes made by this administration. If you were thinking that, please disabuse yourself of that wishful thinking. In following with the time proven-wrong principles of Socialism, the Ideas are “right” but “external” influences have conspired to make them fail or what is happening is actually good, but you are just too uneducated/dumb/Fascist to understand it. Their egalitarian wishes have nothing to do with a good quality of life but and equal application of their rules over the land. It is nobler for them to have people starve and die as long as Socialism is achieved rather than having a happy, fat and full of comfort population who does not commune at the altar of Marx and Lenin. It is like the old joke about surgeons celebrating the success of a complicated surgery while ignoring that the patient died.
It is Dogma over Humanity.
He needs to go to California for a case of sticker shock.
There are Democrats with some sense and they’re reading the results of Virginia and the other elections last week properly; that they’ve gone “too far, too fast, too soon” (old Robin Williams line) and far too many swing voters are pissed at them.
Then there’s the AOC-wing that says they’re failing because they haven’t gone far enough toward communism and haven’t gone fast enough.
Like the energy secretary laughing about how they’re going to fix this and saying she doesn’t have the magic wand to get OPEC to do anything. Lady, it’s not the 1970s. Everyone remembers being energy independent last freaking year and being able to not give two shits about OPEC.
They hate energy independence so much that they refuse to remember it existed.
Well, I tired to share this and bought myself a 30 day suspension on both my profiles because of a rittenhouse post, what assholes. BTW, Miguel, this is spot on.
They should panic.
You can spin and lie to normies all you like. But you can’t spin your way out of higher gas prices, higher food prices, and empty shelves. Even normies and LIVs notice that.
If Brandon’s in the room, that’s … probably not panic you’re smelling.
Its not only the excuses they are making, now they are trying to tell us this is normal or that inflation is a good thing. Seriously, if Democrats didn’t exist, who in their right mind would make them?
Pain at the pump and food prices are the most visible indicators….this winter, when people see the cost of energy (electric and gas) to heat their homes, they are going to be pissed. I’m lucky enough we can probably take the hit in stride, but just today, I turned the T-stat down a couple degrees. The family will probably not like it. Blankets and hoodies everyone.
Well shazayum, it’s almost like elections have, you know, uh, uh, the thing.
