.... that's absolutely something you look into before taking this any where near as far as one did. When you throw stones at the emperor, you make sure you don't miss.
Doesn't work that way. The GOP learned that their base doesn't care about failure.
Failure is just emboldening fuel for the narrative that everything is rigged against them. I mean, they couldn't be that stupid and that wrong so consistently, right?... Right?
Their base gobbles up failure and shits out hot, wet anger diarrhea and then rubs it on everything. And then they complain that no one is doing anything about all this diarrhea.
revoltingly accurate.
Strangely sexy.
More-correctly:
Ideology/Prejudice ( 2 sides of the same Kahneman System-1 limbic-brain "coin" ) can't tolerate the Venn-diagram intersection of objectivity & considered-reasoning .. so it acts to displace all-such from its world/dominion.
Fixed it for you.
That only works if the emperor will murder you for failing. Biden won't do that.
Biden doesn't have to do that.
He looks like a buffoon.
That buffoonery energizes the MAGA base. He’s the distraction for billions being siphoned from that base.
