“Trump, he’s had it with these people, because he knows they’re playing politics,” said the second person. “Nobody thought it was going to last this long.”
Trump and his top aides thought that unpaid federal workers, closed and limited federal facilities and threats of ever-more job cuts from Russ Vought, the director of the Office of Management and Budget, would be too much for Democrats to handle
“I don’t know what’s wrong with them,” he said of Democrats Friday. “They’ve never done a thing like this. They’ve become crazed lunatics. All they have to do is say, ‘Let’s go. Let’s open up our country.’ And everything snaps back into shape. So there’s something wrong with them… It’s their fault. Everything is their fault. It’s so easily solved.”
No it’s not just MAGA because this started happening way way way before MAGA was a thing.
Absolutely true, but ignorance has blossomed, and become not only acceptable, but a MAGA virtue.
I agree with MAGA it has become worse, especially with regard to immigrants and minorities.
And with MAGA it has become utterly unashamed.
But sociopathy has been a virtue in USA for decades, because It’s the ultimate expression of freedom.
And Americans consider individual freedom to be above everything else, even health and well being.
The Three strikes law is a clear example of this sociopathic mentality against fellow citizens.
Another clear example is the lack of healthcare for all, despite experience from other countries show it’s actually cheaper. These things date back to way way before MAGA.
