Makes me super happy to see her so freaking angry.
China has disrupted the market. China is not a free market economy. We tried. We let them into the World Trade Organization. We sent our businesses over there. We made trade deals. They are a controlled top-down economy. You will never compete and win against them, unless you take back the means of production.
No, my argument is that the only difference between them is that Trump pisses people off and Biden doesn’t, and if they’re gonna do the same shit I’d rather the libs also be mad about it, rather than sad but content like they are under Biden.
The Overton window is kind of a dumb concept, but using that as a framework Trump sets the right wing baseline in the same place Biden sets the left wing baseline.
They have the same policies, but instead of having 75% of congress to his left, Biden makes 75% of congress be instinctually to his right.
I agree with you to an extent. Biden does a lot of the same things trump does, but the media and “progressive” politicians stay quiet.
But in the cases I laid out, for LGBTQ, women, and bipoc people, trump would not just sit back and let DeSantis and others upstage him. He would enact these fascist policies on a federal level and that is an unacceptable outcome for me.
Maybe you’re fine with it, in which case, go ahead.
I’m certainly not fine with it, I just think you’re incorrect on that prediction. I think that because Trump stoked people to be so mad, he would face far more resistance and wouldn’t have been able to enact the policies that Biden/the governors under Biden have.
Trump is such a disaster that he gums up the works too much to be as evil as Biden is my point.
Also I could certainly be wrong, and my random dipshit thoughts on a possible alternate history are not exactly useful
We’re both guilty on this :avoheart:
Amen comrade :soviet-heart:
