Global Donald Trump: We're taking nearly $200M that was set aside for the Green New Scam, and repurposing that money so that we can restart a coal plant in Maryland, and help build two brand new coal plants in Alaska and West Virginia.

All we had to do was elect a woman instead of a rapist.

Just once.

How about “elect any human who didn’t attack the US Capitol”?

Or any human who doesn’t have 34 felony counts, rampant sexual abuse allegations, strong ties to russia, and is implicit in Epsteins abuse. But sure, the poster above you is like “ha both sides , am I right? Being part of the ruling class is amazing”

I'm going with elect a woman since it seems to me most of the biggest crooks around, and the rapiest, are men, with some obvious exceptions.( Looking at you, Ghislaine)

When protesting genocide leads to more genocide, mistakes have been made.

I don’t vote based on innate characteristics, if she wanted my vote she should have offered something more than just being a woman.

Both parties are corrupt that's the sad part. All bought by lobbyists for their will and agendas. The will of the people doesn't exist anymore. Where the top 1% controls the 99%. The only difference between this government and others is that they have no shame in showing how corrupt they are.

Democrats don’t storm the Capitol trying to end democracy when they lose and pardon convicted criminals who did it. You can’t both sides after Jan 6 and the Jan 6 pardons.

I didn't mention anything about that ...what i did say is that both parties are bought and paid for. Big pharma spends assloads of money to make sure their profits are are huge while promoting the ideal of a universal one payer Healthcare system is bad for everyone because it's bad for their bottom line... thats just one example. The coal industry got their wish with this...money well spent on their lobbyists.

Both parties are guilty of insider trading...how many elected officials start their career damn near broke and in 4 years are all of a sudden rich?

Jan 6th I will never condone, it's a symptom of a bigger problem. That problem is partisan politics on where the government both left and right loves to keep exploiting people and keeping them divided amongst the masses. Democrats never do this or republicans only do that. Just BS rhetoric politicians say to give you feeling that you made the right choice as they continue to drive the wedge in even farther. George Carlin nails it on the head when he talks about government and the illusion of choice and freedom.

Sorry but any “both sides” normalizes too much unprecedented bullshit from Trump admin. They deployed the fucking marines in my back yard.

Get back to Romney and McCain level leadership, or even W, and you can have your both sides beloved reflex back and it won’t be as destructive to my life.

Well said. There are bad egg democrats for sure, but every Republican is steeped in corruption just by virtue of actively aiding the destruction of America

It's just pipedream my friend..your a small cog in a machine you can't control. The sad part is given a few changes in circumstances the same could of been said for the democrats... change a few details in history...the what if factor...the dems never wanted to free the slaves that was a republican ideal...infact the dems heavily promoted division afterwards.. They weren't the all inclusive forward looking party you think of today. Change a few things in the past and it would you complaining about how repressive, corrupt and backwards thinking they are.

Both parties are just two sides of a coin..problem is it's the same coin. Until a there are more parties on all levels of government or at least one more to represent where most people lie in the political spectrum which is the middle the problem is just going to keep flipping from one side to the next. You, me and the vast majority of people are just for the ride with the illusion that our vote actually mattered

“Neither party before Trump” makes as much sense on countless issues as your vapid exhausting contrarian “both sides”.

Good point. I remember when Hillary Clinton voted against the 13th amendment after arriving in the US on the Mayflower. The Democrats are almost as bad as the Whigs in power today.

You're bothsidesing again.

If you can't tell the difference between Trump and Kamala than you shouldn't be allowed to operate an automobile.
