Michelle Obama tried to make kids lunches healthier and it was literally socialism according to you chodes, yet the right wing judges remove the Chevron deference that allowed regulatory bodies to stop corporations from poisoning us without being constantly sued and that’s perfectly okay.
I’m not sure if you’re young or just stupid, but the right wing toolkit for modifying behavior consists of exclusively deregulation and tax cuts. Which one of those things will RFK use to get companies to make us healthier? Please walk me through it.
She is probably both young and stupid. I honestly don't understand how people are so poorly informed that they legit believe that it is entirely the fault of democrats when it was Republicans who openly announce and bust their balls off to destroy regulation that protects people and then blame everything on the democrats. How? Just fucking how?
Maga wasn't a thing when the Obama's were in office MAGA/MAHA aren't made up of RINOS, which is what "you chodes" must reference too. :)
I'm neither young or stupid, and you can easily look up RFKs policies any time you want. :)
Trump has been going on about the birther bullshit since Obama first took office, which is when he first started building a cult of personality with the uneducated dipshits of this country. The Tea Party was just the first rumblings of the populist movement that would go on to be MAGA.
Tell me who you supported for office back then? And how did you feel about her effort to improve school lunches and health? Did you agree? Or is it only okay when it’s your “feds” oppressing us?
Edit: Checked out RFK’s proposals and it’s literally deregulation and pseudoscience. Let me know how it goes when it fails. Of course that’ll be the democrats and immigrants fault somehow.
Same fucking right wing bullshit rebranded with a populist message. The right wing has no real ideas, no desire to improve anything.
Don’t reply again. You’re not worth my time anymore.
I supported Obama back then, and I was super excited about the lunch programs she tried to roll out.
What about his policies are pseudoscience? None of his policies scream right wing to me, though I do think with the realignment happening, they have now become right wing issues.
I'll reply to who I want to, thanks.
Literal brain worms have taken your critical faculties then I see.
If you truly think Republicans will regulate anything in this country you’ve got a critical misunderstanding of that party’s modus operandi.
Dismantling the FDA for one would leave all food and drugs completely unregulated. Dismantling ACA will mean people don’t have health insurance or affordable healthcare again. Adding tariffs to imports will make nutritious and natural food more expensive. You’re telling me they’re going to remove toxins from the environment while also dismantling the clean air act and going full drill baby drill. lol. Lmao even.
Can’t tell if you’ve never read the republican party platform or you’ve got a parasite like your boy RFK that’s got you sieg heiling dear leader as he destroys the social, moral, economic, political, environmental, and regulatory fabric of the country.
The things you say will happen won’t happen. Full stop.
Not sure why you continue to argue in bad faith.
Why do you assume these things will be dismantled instead of severely cut back on? Or replaced with something else that does work? It's going to be a step-by-step process for a transfer from what we have now to what we will have, but we're not abolishing like we tried to do with police, there will be something built and ready to regulate at a much more efficient standard.
I've read agenda 47, if that's what you mean. And yes, we can drill and still have clean air and water. I'm specifically hoping that wind energy is dismantled and nuclear and solar step up to take it's place.
It won't happen if we don't try.
Right.
I used to wonder how people were so dumb that shitheads like Trump and his cronies would keep getting elected and how they somehow manage to blame their opposition for all the bad and take credit for all the good shit that happens.
This. This statement you made. Is why.
What about my statement makes you come to that conclusion?
