Agreed. Except for the taxpayer reaction part. American taxpayers who then vote republiQan never seem to give a flying shit what happens to all the money.
As long as it doesn’t go to “those people”, they’re fine with the spending.
The motto of the American voter is "Me First." If they get theirs, the government can burn the money for all they care.
If only that were true. That is at least a rational response that can be worked around.
But COVID told us just how many conservatives will laugh on their death bed if they've been convinced that what's happening to them 'owns the libs'.
It's a cult and so reality is whatever the cult leaders say it is, even if that reality is harming them directly.
I don't understand your point.
The effects Iean are things like inflation and cuts in social security.
If you mean that Republicans will find a way to rationalize blaming the libs - I agree that will happen.
But they won't actually like the inflation and lower social security.
More the latter about rationalization. In the real world such things would affect electability. But in our 24/7 Propaganda Turd Circus it will have no effect.
Gotcha, totally agree
