Considering this bullshit is being caused by dumpy and his republicans, what else are we supposed to complain about?

Remember, you voted for this.

No, Trump didn't cause the final tipping point here. The virus is the perfect excuse to do what The Elite wanted to always do anyways in the first place- fiscal austerity.

Also, who voted for fiscal austerity?

People voted for economic nationalism and didn't get it.

Did Obama voters ask for the largest wealth in income inequality in 80 years when they drove to the voting booth to cast their vote?  No they didn't.

Did people who voted for Democratic Congressional representatives ask for zero response to the recent looting of the Treasury to give to Wall Street?  No they didn't.

Remember, you voted for this. When the local MAGAs start losing their pensions and SS, well, that's just part of the MAGA.

That's what a vote for republicans is.

They were not given a choice.

You can choose to stick your head in the sand all you want. Sure, it's "both sides". Except it's not. This has been the Republican party platform for longer than you've been alive, and for some reason, you keep believing them when they lie to your face.

It's like an abused wife going back to her husband: "well, he didn't break my arm this time, so deep down he must still love me!"

...and then with the "both sides", you're that same lady threatening the neighbor that called the cops to stop the beating.

You're being completely disingenuous here.

1. Trump did NOT campaign on fiscal austerity, in fact he was criticized for that fact.

2. Trump did run the strongest economic nationalism campaign in recent US history, that's a fact. 

3. Obama campaigned on reversing the wealth and income inequality in that time period. The end result was that it exploded higher under his watch. 

4. They were not given a choice?    Stop rationalizing it, they failed all of their supporters.  They're scamming you with their BS rhetoric. They're bought and paid for by the SAME corporate donors as the Republicans. It's time to hold Pelosi, Schumer, Bernie, AOC and the rest of the shitbags accountable for their action or lack of actions in some cases.

I never said anything like that about Obama, or Clinton.

I placed the blame on Moscow Mitch during the Obama years, and Newt Gingrich in the Clinton years.

Because they are the people that deserved the blame at the time. And now, in Moscow Mitch's case.

It's not both sides. It's one side. One side is very happy to use human lives as leverage. This gives them an advantage.

Well, when you're screwing over the entire working class and enriching The Elite, it becomes very difficult to answer basic questions.
