    Don’t they understand that under Trump, things will be much worse?

    Under Trump, things were much better. Housing was much more affordable relative to wages. Food was much cheaper. Inflation was much lower. Illegal immigration was much lower. People are used to politicians lying to them, so they believe what they see and experience. That’s why Trump is now projected to win.

      There were also riots in the streets, huge companies going out of business and massive layoffs, family farms going under because of soybean tariffs, and a massive pandemic where the federal government was confiscating PPE and selling it to Trump’s friends. All the while the president of the country was too fucking busy calling Rosie O’Donnell fat on Twitter to care.

      Yeah shit was totally better back then.
