The specific policies were not the issue. The fact that he did not stop a violent insurrectionist from running for office is my grievance here. The metaphor being that an Oompa Loompa should not have gotten a golden ticket. Much less, one with syphilis and a malignant personality disorder.

this is my main gripe with the previous administration too. they broke standard procedures for all of their buddies (pardons for political and family members at the last moment, wtf??) while a felon gets handed keys to the castle.

its so embarrasing that our elected officials didn't force Biden to be a one term president, its so embarrasing we threw kamala harris into the race last minute, and its also embarrasing to realize this party will not change because i truly believe ALL current leaders use their positions to make money where they should not be making money.

and yet, I stick with their ideology because they aren't as obvious with their moral bankruptcy. whose the real crazy one in this relationship? ok, I'm done ranting my friend, lol

No you're right, it's an abusive relationship. It isn't much different from a good cop/bad cop dynamic. The ratcheting effect taken to its furthest extremity.
