They cried wolf to clear the way for the real deal.

What a succinct way of putting it. Tbh I suspect they may have done the same thing with calling the 2020 election "rigged" after the recent allegations about election fraud.

[–] NikkiDimes@lemmy.world 16 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

It's only rigged if their guy loses.

[–] stringere@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 weeks ago

If you cheat and lose the only logical conclusion is they cheated more or better but they had to have cheated.

after the recent allegations about election fraud.

Is there anything more solid to these, yet?

Where are the conservative conspiracy theorists who talked about Obama putting us in FEMA death camps? Where were they when we actually had refrigerated trucks full of corpses in NYC?

Accusation = confession. It seems like it's always true...

[–] Zachariah@lemmy.world 31 points 2 weeks ago

they were just jealous

[–] mavu@discuss.tchncs.de 25 points 2 weeks ago

Are they quiet?

I hear cheering from somewhere...

Well you see, Obama and Biden used unelected bureaucrats to destroy the country. On the other hand, Trump is fine because he will save us and fix everything.

(Honest to God, that is the TLDR of a conversation with some of my relatives)

You have to wait 10-20 years, then you're getting the tax cuts.


morons defending Elongated Muskrat's poorly disguised attempt at "R.A.G.E."

Every accusation is an admission, and diluting meaningful dialogue is entirely the point.

Only good faith interlocutors care about hypocrisy.

They blamed a shadowy, undefined "deep state" that was able to morph and change to be blamed for every single thing they felt was wrong with their life that has nothing to do with government.

Now they have brash public unelected officials who publicly do everything they can to undermine the government and it turns out when you can define what these people are doing it's easier to ignore or make excuses for them.

Well they did deliver on getting rid of the deep state, now it's just shallow / completely above water state doing all the bullshit

Something something in-group laws protects but does not bind.

As long as it’s their guy doing the hurting of people it’s a good thing! /s

Safety protects but does not bind.

Tyranny binds but does not protect.

Yes, they reference him on quite a few occasions on their various shows

[–] Skullgrid@lemmy.world 5 points 2 weeks ago

Holy shit this makes Rob even more based

...Nepo babies... to the tune of muppet babies.

[–] Doomsider@lemmy.world 13 points 2 weeks ago

Your forget it is their unelected bureaucrat.

Brought to you by the it is okay as long as our side does it crowd.

[–] CoffeeJunkie@lemmy.cafe 7 points 2 weeks ago

Republicans & Conservatives would constantly cry, "They're destroying the _______."

The government? They're just really in love with the government, this is what they're known for?

No. The answer to that fill-in-the-blank is, "They're destroying the COUNTRY." Government /= country, it's not even fucking close. This reminds me of when I'm "quoted" but they change the words. 😂 Changing words changes the whole context, usually to make me look worse & their arguments (artificially) look better.

[–] umbrella@lemmy.ml 7 points 2 weeks ago

every accusation is a confession to them

Projection is gonna project

[–] Shardikprime@lemmy.world 5 points 2 weeks ago

Why would they complain? They literally voted for this

Now, what "this" actually is, depends on the point of view

Remember, Republicans = Traitors to The United States
