Time to watch it be funneled into billionaire crony pockets.
That’s the only place it’s gone for a half-century.
Biden should honestly just forgive all big debts for countries, healthcare education etc etc… the hell would trumpy do when there’s just…no money to steal since it was just given away.
This just in: current white house occupants say current white house occupants did good thing!
Remember to tune in next year when we cover the story: current white house occupants say current white house occupants did good thing!
America will now lose any further investment. It was going to red states so now they get what they deserve.
I did very well on my self-assessment too
Oh, well as long as the economy is growing/metastasizing for the private shareholder owner class, the society that perversely lives in subsistent servitude to it can continue to get fucked.
This is why the neoliberals lost (yes I voted blue out of harm reduction).
The laborers needed a party that protected the needs of the laborers from the greed of the capitalists.
Instead we got, and even continue to get in defeat, “the economy is doing great! It’s you fucking peasants complaining about having enough to make rent and still eat that are wrong!”
Economies are supposed to be lowly tools to benefit society through equitable distribution of goods and services, the tail has been wagging the dog for half a century, and it’s destroyed us.
that’s great, and means absolutely nothing to the people making minimum wage, who are now paying 30%-50% more for bread, milk, eggs, and rent than they were when joe took office. macroeconimic numbers mean nothing when after the pandemic americans got hit in the nose with what felt like the greatest sustained bout of ruinous inflation in peacetime memory. i voted for joe, and kamala, i know they’re better for america than the fascist, by ordinates, but they never enumerated a plan to reel in the gouging occuring from landlords, grocery conglomerates, and just about everyone else squeezing the average american for every penny they have. and that’s why they lost. everything.
You can thank Republicans for the minimum wage and the killing of a inflation laws. Also, I’m going to point and laugh when you’re paying even more in the new administration.
I was paying less than ever for eggs only a month ago and gas is like $2.60 in my area. It’s you’re own fault for parroting and believing this garbage.
You can thank Republicans for the minimum wage
thumbs down, curtsy
Don’t worry. It’ll all be undone now. Thanks for the incompetence, Dems. Really snatched defeat from the jaws of victory.
…what jaws of victory? The Dems were literally never projected to win by a majority of polls at any point during the election cycle.

I don’t suppose being up against a senile rapist who fellates his microphone in front of a crowd and peddles deeply unpopular policies at all counts as a victory that should be, by all rights, a layup, except for the fact that Dem messaging is and has always been pure dogshit?
Those jaws.
Oh, you’re one of the people that think the average American doesn’t support those things.
I hope you maintain your sense of innocence. I gave up.
Half of America loves him. None of those things seem to bother them. They were never going to vote dem.
They definitely fucked up but let’s not pretend Trump isn’t loved by way to many Americans.
You’ve maybe spent too long in the echo chamber.
GOP voters were never going to vote anything other than Trump. Abstainers (and, for the record, FUCK them for not caring about literal fascism) largely saw no point in turning out for the Dems for a lack of inspiring message.
Democrats moved to the right to try to get Republican votes. It failed. They will learn nothing and do it again.
Voters didn’t turn out for Dems because of people like yourself constantly shitting on Dems with [FUD](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fear,_uncertainty,_and_doubt#%3A~%3Atext=Fear%2C+uncertainty%2C+and+doubt+(%2Cof+the+appeal+to+fear.)
Bruh, I was full-throated in my support of the Dems because I understood the importance of maintaining enthusiasm for turnout. You can check my comment history if you like. Arguing against people shitting on the Dems when the alternative was literal fascism made up a great deal of my activity these past few months.
But the election’s over now. We can bitch now without worrying about depressing turnout amongst those with the memories of goldfish who only remember the last comment they read. It’s safe, at least until the next election cycle revs up again. And, in fact, if we do not bitch now, we risk not knowing how to correct our mistakes next time.
So you shit on dems for years until right before the election and expect voters to forget about all that shitting you’ve done at the last second…
It doesn’t work like that.
If only it had been 2 trillion…
As if it would make a difference. Success doesn’t matter if your PR arm can’t meaningfully capitalize on it. The Dems could bring up fully automated luxury gay space communism to the US with total success, and their obsession with being an inclusive, big-tent party, like it’s the mid-2000s, would make them unable to campaign on it.
Weird, I’ve heard of the IRA, chips, and infrastructure act from the Dems.
We’re the politically involved, man. It’s not us that need the messaging. It’s the mass of American voters who don’t remember anything if the drum isn’t being beaten 24/7.
Maybe they should have put it on the news.
fellates his microphone in front of a crowd
You know that was a heavily edited gif right? He didn’t stand there and pretend he was blowing the mic.
It’s sad to see the left buying into the same kind of idiocy the MAGAts do but it’s pretty much exactly what I expected.
What part of that video clip is a heavily edited gif?
Wow yeah he’s just up there suckin’ away this will surely be the thing that gets him and definitely isn’t him playing the media and the crowd like a fiddle!
Voters didn’t turn out for dems because of people like yourself constantly spreading [FUD](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fear,_uncertainty,_and_doubt#%3A~%3Atext=Fear%2C+uncertainty%2C+and+doubt+(%2Cof+the+appeal+to+fear.)
And Dems were particularly vulnerable to FUD due to their rightward shift on policy, poor messaging, and support for an ongoing genocide. Maybe the party should take some responsibility for once.
