They told you immigrants were the reason you couldn’t find a good job, so they spent nearly two years carrying out mass deportations.
Did your paycheck get bigger? Did finding a job get easier? Did your rent suddenly become affordable? Or did you just get handed someone else to blame while the people actually controlling wages and housing costs kept getting richer?
They overturned Roe v. Wade and celebrated taking away a constitutional protection women had relied on for nearly 50 years.
So where is the paid maternity leave? Where is universal prenatal care? Where is affordable childcare? Where is the guarantee that a woman forced to carry a pregnancy can afford to feed, house, insure, and care for that child afterward?
They attacked public education, cut education programs, demonized teachers, targeted the Department of Education, and told you they were “saving” your children.
Are your kids getting a better education now? Are classrooms smaller? Are teachers paid better? Are schools safer? Are special education services stronger? Or did they just give you another culture war while public schools were left fighting for resources?
They spent YEARS obsessing over transgender people.
Did attacking trans kids lower your taxes? Did banning trans people from bathrooms make your neighborhood safer? Did it put food on your table?
More importantly, did any of that outrage make them release everything the government legally can about Jeffrey Epstein and aggressively pursue prosecutable evidence against anyone who abused or trafficked minors?
Funny how they can find endless political energy to investigate someone’s gender, but transparency and accountability involving powerful people suddenly becomes complicated.
They told you tariffs would make America richer.
Did the store stop passing higher import costs onto you? Did your grocery cart suddenly get cheaper? Did appliances, building materials, clothing, or household goods become more affordable?
They promised to protect working people.
Did the federal minimum wage go up? Did paid family leave become a national guarantee? Did paid sick leave become a right? Did childcare become affordable?
They told you billionaires and corporations needed fewer regulations and a friendlier government.
Did your boss share those savings with you?
Did your paycheck suddenly match the cost of living?
Did corporations stop laying people off while executives collected enormous compensation packages?
They told you climate regulations were the problem.
Did your homeowners insurance get cheaper?
Did your electric bill disappear?
Did hurricanes, floods, wildfires, droughts, and extreme heat stop costing American families billions?
They told you environmental regulations were unnecessary government interference.
Did your drinking water get cleaner?
Did your air get cleaner?
Did your food become safer?
Or did corporations simply get fewer rules standing between their profits and your health?
They told you federal workers were the problem and celebrated mass firings and agency cuts.
Did your passport arrive faster?
Did veterans suddenly get better service?
Did Social Security become easier to navigate?
Did disaster assistance become faster?
Did government magically become more efficient after getting rid of the people who actually do the work?
They told you the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau was government overreach.
Did your credit card interest rate go down?
Did overdraft fees disappear?
Did debt collectors become nicer?
Did banks suddenly decide to stop squeezing customers?
They promised to protect Social Security and Medicare.
Did seniors get a major increase in benefits?
Did prescription drugs suddenly become affordable?
Did Medicare start covering dental, vision, and hearing for everyone?
Did retirees stop worrying about whether their fixed income would cover rent, groceries, utilities, and medicine?
They promised “law and order.”
Did mass shootings stop?
Did your children become safer at school?
Did domestic violence disappear?
Did rape kits suddenly stop sitting untested?
Or did “law and order” mostly become a slogan used against whichever group they wanted you angry at?
They promised government transparency.
So why do Americans STILL have to demand answers about the Epstein files?
Why do taxpayers have to fight to find out what their own government is doing with THEIR money?
Why is transparency treated like some favor politicians generously give us instead of the bare minimum we should expect from people whose salaries WE PAY?
They told you voter fraud was everywhere and passed more voting restrictions.
Did that make your grocery bill cheaper?
Did it build housing?
Did it fix healthcare?
Did it raise wages?
Or did it simply make voting harder for some Americans while doing absolutely nothing about the problems keeping families awake at night?
They went after universities and threatened funding in the name of fighting “wokeness.”
Did your student loans disappear?
Did tuition get cheaper?
Did your kid suddenly stop needing loans to get an education?
They banned books and fought over what libraries could put on shelves.
Did your child’s reading score improve?
Did schools get more counselors?
Did teachers get more classroom supplies?
Did school lunch debt disappear?
They attacked diversity programs and declared war on DEI.
Did eliminating DEI build one affordable house?
Did it lower the price of eggs?
Did it lower your health insurance deductible?
Did it make your employer gi

Circus  is a great description.
Very entertaining.
The Roman dictators liked bread and circuses.
Worked for them.

You lefties have been at the circus for a decade.
Maybe it's time you realized it was an opportunity cost Wink

Maybe circus was the wrong word to use. Perhaps cult is more accurate?

I agree.
People who obsess over Trump are very much in a cult.

I get annoyed if I waste 5 minutes in traffic.
The thought of a year wasted in prison terrifies most sane people.

But the lefty losers who have obsessed over Trump and wasted a decade.
A decade they will never get back.

A decade when they could have travelled, contributed.learnt skills taken up a sport or a musical instrument.

Such a waste of a precious decade

Just so. A huge opportunity cost for the leftie chodes, who live lives of pure garbage.

They could have spent ten years obsessing over Marla, no?

Typical.

1 minutes work a week.
Compared to putting in a 40 hr work week on donny by yourself and gweggy.
You are up for long service leave after 10 years of devoted work.
See you in 2 months.

That's one minute you could have practiced mindfulness, made a healthy shake, done some push-ups, made the hot-babe wife a cup of tea. What did you do instead?

Complained about the service at the Colorado DMV.

Despicable stuff.

No, sorry. You are wrong. People who follow, trust and believe and support Trump are the cult members. No one in their right mind would trust Trump, a narcissist, a liar and a convicted felon who has never been faithful to any of his wives and who enjoys the company of underage girls. You’re a cult member if you still support and believe in a person who is as corrupt as Trump even after all the illegal things he has done and continues to do.

Nonsense. Aquascoot has been consistent on this from day one.

What's wrong with a bit of corruption? He said. You'd be crazy if you didn't want that.

Elite child trafficking rings?

A bit of harmless fun.

Economic devastation?

Bring it on. Endless wars?

Awesome. The "noble warrior", striding into battle to blow himself up.

DL called them chumps - he prefers his warriors who don't blow themselves up.

It was a trick to sell these policies in the election, of course. Aquascoot had to try a bit of the weave.

Have you heard about groceries? He asked. That's stuff the Real Americans buy, it's a lovely word. DL will get more people saying it.

Maccas?

DL used to work the counter. The big fella plans to sell more fast food, Aquascoot said, it's delish.

Trannies?

Banned. Boys need to wear shirts, not skirts. DL will stop them all playing with girls, it's only right.

He's got some great policies on plastic straws and shower heads too, Aquascoot reminded us. It's going to be fabulous.

After the election, Aquascoot decided to go with austerity instead. The Superior Man went from throwing a rope down to the chodes, who live lives of pure garbage, to giving them an "obstacle to overcome".

It was more of a minor adjustment than a a complete U turn, but it had to happen. Our leaders need to make things tough, he said. Start a global recession or world war. Who wouldn't want that?

That's not a cult, Armchair, it's just "common sense".

No one in their right mind " believes" Trump.

But that doesn't mean smart people can't " believe" Trump is very effective at harnessing attention and that he has delusional core confidence which is key to attracting followers  Smiley

Just so. That doesn't mean the person you so dismissively refer to as "Trump" can't be worshipped.

The leftards don't have to "believe", they need to give in to their overwhelming desire to obey.

Tariffs, endless wars, killing kiddies and shutting down the Strait: good.

Free trade, economic growth, groceries: baaaad.

Sheesh, DL could call for action on climate change and you'd believe. He could demand boys in the girls' toilets. He could start a full communist revolution.

You'd obey fully. You'd make yourself believe.

DL is very effective at harnessing your obedience. He has that delusional core confidence which is key to attracting followers, no?

Yes, master.
