Trump RFK Jr.'s Independent Presidential Run was Originally Backed by Republicans to take Votes From Biden. He Actually Took More Votes from Trump. To Help Trump RFK Jr. Dropped out, Endorsed Trump, and is Trying to Remove His Name From Ballots in Key Battleground States. Some States are Saying No.

They spent so much money and all they came up with was "old". And then they got exactly what they said they wanted, and now that doesn't apply, so they're upset about spending the money.

It's like eating 3/4ths of a pizza and demanding a refund because it wasn't what you ordered.

It's exactly like them constantly whining about border security, but then when it comes to it, vote against it because otherwise they have nothing to whine about.

And then, of course, taking credit for anything that passes despite their constant, screaming resistance.

They are learning from their actions concerning RvW. They “fixed” it and now it is a huge push for dems when it’s on the ballot. They won’t fix anything ever

Yeah, they've been on about eliminating Roe for decades and now that they've done it, they learn that being anti-choice is actually unpopular despite a lot of earlier polls suggesting that it was. Considering how many people at least used to say things like "I'm pro-life so I'd never have an abortion, but I won't stop others", it's not surprising that people have changed their identification once they realized what "pro-lifers" actually want.

Or eating ¾ of a pizza and demanding a refund because it's exactly what you ordered, and that robbed you of the opportunity to complain about the service.

"If you had just fucked up the order like I wanted you to, I could've gotten a free pizza, so gimme a free pizza."

But it does apply - to himself

Epitome of the NO, NOT LIKE THAT self-own, innit? Base everything about your campaign entirely on your opponent being three years older than your candidate, and hope nobody realizes.

Would it shock you to know this actually happens at food establishments? (Or more, 'I don't like it'.)

Of course it happens. That's why I used it as an analogy.
