"Genocide Joe". Nice. I wonder if US democrats fully comprehend the support they're flushing with their current foreign policy.
Edit: I just love how every response to this has been some version of "Republicans are worse". It's true of course, but this doesn't erase the sense of betrayal many on the Left feel. That betrayal won't likely make people vote Republican, but it's certainly enough to make people stay home.
You know, you're really telling on yourself with this kind of statement.
Democrats are upset with Biden's actions because they are not a monolith. You can support a politician, and still be upset with his actions. It's called the duality of being human.
If you're expecting democrats to commit to everything their leader says and does without a single critical thought, even if what they're saying contradicts what they previously said, then you're looking at the wrong party, bud. That's the behavior of Trump Republicans, and Trump Republicans exclusively.
This isn't an unpopular tax cut. It's genocide.
Democrats expect me to pretend that just because they're better than Republicans they're immune to criticism. Theyre acting like trump Republicans in that regard.
After 2 GWB presidency and a Trump one, there is not much trust left to flush anyway. Biden is trying to restore some but has to deal with toddlers in the House.
