"My budget keeps our borders secure."

[George K]

Great moments in gaslighting.

[Jolly]

Wonder who writes this nonsense?

[Horace]

And just like that, democrats were pro law enforcement.

The sheer quantity of low IQ, infantile messaging coming from this administration is staggering.

[Jolly]

That's because it works.

They know their audience. Maga this, maga that.

Unifying through tribal hatreds.

Oh, come on, you guys. Both parties do this all the time, have done almost from the beginning. Statements designed to bamboozle some of the voters all of the time.

Your tribe is just as bad. Don't pretend it isn't.

Politics is and has always been dumb, by nature. It has to appeal to the lowest common denominator. But this administration's disregard for anything that sniffs of intelligence is striking a new chord, IMO. You can call Trump stupid as you please, but the fact is that in large part, he rode taboo truths to the white house. Such as, border security is important. He was willing and able to say that particular truth, and his opponent was not. There are no such truths the Dems are willing and able to say, and the Republicans are not. The rules both sides follow are not equal, and therefore both sides are not equal.
