No shit. If only we didn't have a whole media ecosystem dedicated to keeping that sort of information from its viewers.
Well, they might reluctantly tell them....now. The damage is already on its way and they are salivating at the earnings they anticipate - just look at market speculation...
How many of his supporters probably even STILL think that China will be paying the tariffs, I wonder? Or that China isn't somehow "cheating" because "trade deficit"? How many of his supporters know that the people setting prices on their groceries boasted about this kind of thing on earnings calls, and it had sweet fuck-all to do with "Bidenflation" (whatever the fuck that is)? How many knew that our inflation as a consequence of Covid was less than other countries?
Our "liberal media" sure didn't work very hard to separate these people from their delusions.
No they won't. They'll repeat "promises made, promises kept" and if they're forced to comment on prices they'll blame immigrants or something. Reality has no influence on what Fox News reports.
They'll blame Obama and Biden.
Also, when it comes to what the "liberal media" may report on, very late, and with a fake kind of regret, and of course long after any voter could possibly do anything about it, I was talking more about the typical beltway media stuff, which of course is right-leaning and very corporate, but is not Cuckoo-for-Cocoa Puffs crazy like Faux....yeah, Faux will be telling people absolute bullshit the minute donvict soils the WH again.
I'm sure every redhat could be told their dong is 2x as big as a consequence, gas is a penny a gallon, and eggs are being given away now under donvict, and at least SOME of them would parrot this like good little cult members.
Good point. They were mouthing that at the end of donvict's first failed term, and I'm like....what promises were kept? Separating parents from children? I guess. Was that a promise? Same for the gigantic giveaways and reacharounds to the extremely wealthy? Okay, if that was a promise, I guess they kept it?
