CJMusic Oct 7, 2023:

Joe Biden is the worst US president in history.

CJMusic Jul 6, 2024:

It would appear that, in light of Biden failing and floundering, the Dems sent their minions out to foment panic about Project 2025. It won't work.

CJMusic May 1, 2025:

I regret voting for Trump.

My husband is laid off and can't find a job and my kids' credit scores have tanked bc of his student loan policy.

This is not what I voted for.

Vote republican, and have a worse life

I don't get why people haven't learned that one yet

How would someone who is convinced they are a temporarily embarassed millionaire learn a lesson like that.

Conservatives always think they're part of the in-group.. until they're not.

Because they think that one day soon, they'll own the boot and be the ones doing the stomping.

Republicans never consider themselves to be poor, they're just "temporarily embarrassed millionaires" who are gonna make it any day now. Just you wait, any day now they'll win the lottery, or get an inheritance, or...

Fry: "yeah that'll show those poor!"

Leela: "but Fry, why are you cheering? you aren't rich."

Fry: "True, but someday I might be. Then people like me better watch their step!"

Blame shifting by the people that they believe they should trust.

"The democrats caused this mess"
"If the democrats were in power, they would do way worse than this"
"This is temporary pain to prevent the democrats from ruining EVERYTHING"
"~~Heil Hitler~~ THE DEMOCRATS ARE THE REAL NAZI FASCISTS!!!"

THE DEMOCRATS ARE THE REAL NAZI FASCISTS!!!”

Yup, like the time that Biden Sieg Heiled. oh wait...

This is the strategy that the obscenely wealthy have used since the dawn of time.

Manipulate the peasants to blame each other, instead of us. Throw them some bones to make us appear concerned, altruistic, and benevolent. The reason Roman emperors gave the plebes free bread every day, and held the "Games" to keep them from rioting.

Today, it's American Idol, sports, reality TV, YouTube, TikTok, etc.

"Because he hates the people I hate. 'Murica!"

Because it's a better life for rich people, and that's what they're going to be any day now!
