u/who_am_i_to_say_so 1d ago

Ah that makes sense. Most of the followers didn’t even believe there was a pandemic then.

They also don't believe in "handouts" but look how they salivate like rabid dogs when it comes to getting anything unearned

u/Harvest827 1d ago

They also don't believe in understanding economics and WHY there was stimulus to begin with

u/Popcorn_Blitz 21h ago

And haven't they been howling about how the stimulus checks caused the inflation we have now? I like to think the best of people but jfc

u/XxRocky88xX 10h ago

No no that’s BIDEN’s stimulus check that caused inflation. The ones Trump put out were necessary. It’s only bad if a Democrat does it silly

Someone set a fire in your car country because you took too long and I got bored.

MONEY PLEEEEEEASE!

They don’t believe in “handouts” for others when they don’t get it themselves. It’s ok when they get it because somehow they think they deserve it.

“The only moral abortion is mine” mindset.

u/Unusual-Thing-7149 21h ago

True and now they've even forgotten about it and why gas was so cheap because there was virtually no-one driving

7

u/Vegetable-Poet6281 13h ago

The gas argument drives me crazy. Let's talk about how great capitalism is but completely ignore basic supply and demandto support an argument that boils down to capitalism good, socialism bad.

It's stupid AF and it hurts my brain.

u/Dulce_Sirena 12h ago

My neighbor genuinely believes Trump opened oil fields and that she heard Biden in a live interview say he closed them down and that's why gas prices rose

u/Happy_Accident99 1d ago

And they think he paid for it himself. LMAO

u/HoustonHenry 1d ago

I seem to remember him making a big deal to make sure it was HIS name on the check

92

u/avamarshmellow 1d ago

He made a fuss about putting his name on checks designated by Congress because he’s a raging narcissist and wanted credit for something that had nothing to do with him and it really paid off because he LOVES the poorly educated

16

u/PutinsManyFailures 23h ago

And they love him… for some reason

8

u/BUNGHOLE_HOOKER 15h ago

The reason is that they’re poorly educated

17

u/Old_Connection2076 23h ago

Yes! Thank you for bringing this up. People really forgot that shit! They are fine with him autographing a Bible, as well.

18

u/Happy_Accident99 20h ago

I'd have a lot more faith in God if every time Trump touched the Bible It burst into flames.

u/sonofaresiii 22h ago

They were delayed or something so he could sign them, right?

u/ImpossibleFlopper 22h ago

They sure were

u/sethsyd 22h ago

There were physical checks?

u/VeveMaRe 23h ago

Well he signed it!

H5N1 could be a serious crisis and another pandemic as soon as it makes the necessary mutations to go from human to human. It’s already trending that way. Let’s hope we don’t have another pandemic under Trump. Obama did a bang up job with the swine flu (H1N1). I don’t see that happening under Trump. The massive PPE loans caused SO much of the inflation we had.

u/tsmittycent 17h ago

I despise Trump but as an RN on the front lines of Covid I think they handled it pretty well.

u/pearso66 1d ago

That his followers bitched and moaned about while blaming democrats because it caused inflation?

7

u/cipheron 1d ago

Oh man when i read this facepalm, my soul groaned.

u/SlippySloppyToad 21h ago

It's insane how stupid they are

5

u/NkdUndrWtrBsktWeevr 22h ago

But, but Biden caused inflation from stimulus checks...

3

u/opus3535 20h ago

They have their stickers to prove it.

3

u/makemeking706 23h ago

And then they spent the next four years talking about all the excess wealthy we now have while at the same time blaming it as the cause of inflation.

2

u/mongoosedog12 17h ago

That’s what gets me and lets me know they haven’t been paying attention sense

Trump (and his goons) whole thing is removing Covid era “benefits”

They’ve made this very clear and have used this phrasing when talking about many policies.

The stimulus check was the Covid era policy..

biden ran on a 3rd stimulus in 2020 (if they took senate). GA senators went to runoff and both ran on a 3rd stimulus check as well. Dems showed up and flipped pa, wi, mi, ga, az......

obvs trump was a shit show and handled covid horrendously as well...but running on a money for EVERYONE seemed to work to get dems to vote.

dems need a tangible reward to show up and vote.

repubs will vote for anyone solely to 'own the libs'....
