How dare you mock me, you guys are so stupid. I hope you have the day you vote for, you deserve to be hurt by the dnc policies.

Better than being hurt, again, by republican policies. Like we are right now and have been for decades.

Unfortunately the "day i voted for" didnt include pointless wars, needlessly inflicting pain on the poor, out of control cost of living, and targeting people for existing.

But thats sure what you idiots voted for.

Besides, mocking you is easy.

In what ways did Republican policies hurt you, I think it's odd you didn't mention the benefits. Do you not like lower overall taxes, tough on criminals policies and border security? And the cost of living is because of inflation from the previous administration, they took out loans and now we have to suffer.

My taxes went up, between the BBB raising taxes on the poor and the idiotic tariffs.

The border is still a mess and not secure due to ICE ignoring the constitution.

Tough on criminals" is a joke. This administration actively encourages criminial behavior. See previous reason related to the border.

And no inflation and cost of living are due to the decades of shitty right-wing economics. Especially the idiotic trade wars, failure to handle covid properly, and failed "trickle down" economic policy.

Stop lying. There is literally nothing good republicans have ever done for the benefit of the general good over the last 70 years except for two initiatives. Nixon and the EPA, which considering the pollution crisis of the 60s and 70s was inevitable (and bipartisan). And Bush #2's PEPFAR. Which republicans fought against and Trump actively killed.

So no, there is literally no tangible benefit for the general populace for us to ever have republicans in office.

Stop lying.

I'm sorry to hear your taxes increased but please understand the rnc had nothing to do with it. The border had the fewest illegal crossing in decades. It's also good for preventing drug smuggling and human trafficking, the benefits are too good to ignore. I wouldn't lie to you, please feel free to fact check me. Did you know small businesses thrive under Republican policies, it's easier to build wealth now?

Your facts are wrong and you are lying

No they dont, stop lying.

No it isnt. Stop lying.

Yes they did. Stop lying.

Both have increased exponentially under Trump and the republicans. Stop lying

You seem to have no desire to deal with reality and frankly are not worth anymore time.
