Your side won the national elections, but you seem to think that you've won some sort of sports championship where you get have a parade and wear a t-shirt. That maybe true of the KC Chiefs, but no one is asking Pat Mahomes or Andy Reid about their plans for healthcare. With your victories come the awesome responsibilities of governing. You have complete control of our government and media. So now you have to deliver, and our expectations are high. We demand nothing short of pure Utopia by next year.
We want zero UE.
We want zero inflation.
We want high paying jobs.
We want a stock market that's booming.
We want affordable housing.
We want it all because that's what you promised us. That's what you've been telling us if we gave you power. Well now, you have the power. So deliver.

Remember these are the people who blamed COVID on the Dems when it started under Trump.

(14,959 posts)Every crazy, incompetent, stupid thing they do or results from what they do will be blamed on "the left" with no actual reason, their voters will eat it up like deep fried oreos, the media will take an approach if it is what it is, and the dimwit middle will figure that the left us just as bad, so sure, that tracts.

(11,176 posts)They don't want zero unemployment; when workers are scarce they have to offer them higher wages and benefits.
They don't want zero inflation; greedily hiking consumer prices is why they're enjoying record profits.
They don't want high paying jobs; they want to drive down wages by offshoring jobs and bringing in lots of low-paid H-1B visa holders.
They want a booming stock market; unless they decide it's time to make quick profits from a declining market.
They don't want affordable housing; they're buying up housing so they can keep housing prices high.

(36,362 posts)I was told that if their God emperor had total power I could expect Utopia.
I will take nothing less.

(11,176 posts)and the promised Utopia was only meant for his wealthy donors, they might be upset. Or not. These imbeciles are easy to fool.

(8,503 posts)...be kind to everybody and ignore the fools. Turn off most "news" and watch the late night comedians. Save as much wealth as possible and invest in tangible assets. This will pass. Well, until putin dies the chaos will be overwhelming.

DENVERPOPS
(9,949 posts)election, he wanted the Military to give him a massive Parade/Display of Military might like Putin, China, NoKorea, did for their leader.
You know, big numbers of our largest Tanks, massive portable missile launchers, thousands and thousands of marching soldiers, etc...
The Military shot him down.
I am waiting to see if Trump has his way this time around........or if the Generals will again say "No Way,"...... period......
Dem2theMax
(10,274 posts)Wouldn't be surprised if he gets it this time.
Because, he's the king of the world now.
In his own mind.
DENVERPOPS
(9,949 posts)The military told him, that the entire course of that kind of parade would result in destroying the street with the extreme weight of a "track" vehicle, the extreme weight of other military vehicles might even rupture of break underground utilities. And at best, the surface of the street would take months to repair, especially because it is winter......
Little would he give a shit, Marine One picks him up at his doorstep and takes him to AirForceOne, which takes him on his constant golf "Junkets" semi-weekly, or to his beloved Mar a Lago for his constant need for relaxation and rest. AND to see all his cronies from other countries who come to worship him, launder money to him, and to get on their knees and kiss his ring......
This whole thing has gone from un-believeable to UN-FATHOMABLE.............
Dem2theMax
(10,274 posts)Honestly, and sadly, one of my first thoughts after we found out he was elected was, 'he's going to get his parade.'
His beloved Putin gets a parade, so why shouldn't he get a parade? Again,
It doesn't matter that streets and utilities will be destroyed and need to be repaired at a very costly rate. Us peons will pay for it with our taxes. Heck, he might pull some of those immigrants out of the concentration camps and put them to work.
Rod Serling was ahead of his time.
The Twilight Zone is now.

(5,943 posts)Social Security needs to be boosted by 25% across the board to cover all of this inflation, so let's get that done quickly, Magats.
Ziggysmom
(3,569 posts)The cry of Make America Great Again forgets that there was never anything great about a nation founded on slavery and mass socioeconomic inequality, where both major political parties perpetuate plutocracy under the guise of democracy.
Trumps first horrible crowning saw him enact tax cuts for other rich people. Yet all the stupid voters perceived him as the only candidate who could save them, despite their financial suffering is a direct consequence of the same capitalist arrangement that enables trump to be rich and get away with crimes!
