      Is this what we can expect for every criticism of the Biden administration for the next year? All you are really telling swing voters is that their opinion is irrelevant. What do you think that will do for turnout? Why do you think the administration itself isn’t making use of this brilliant electoral strategy? When Trump wins, you can thank the guy in the mirror.

        Did I say their opinion is irrelevant? I said, like last time, Trump will attack them and try to outlaw protests while working for the highest bidder. It’s not an attempt at swaying, it’s stating fact. You don’t get change by replacing the status quo guy with a straight up fascist.

          If ever criticism is met with “But Trump…”, then you are making their opinion irrelevant. There will always be a worse Republican.

        And when he was president he regularly tried to outlaw protests, tear gasses them, etc. Not to mention a Trump presidency costed Roe v Wade and stacked the supreme Court with bought and sold Christofascists. I didn’t say he never was president, I said he’ll straight up outlaw protests the next time he is, which he was well on his way to doing the last time.

            Pure vibes. The Trump administration was no worse for protests than any other administration in my life time.

            Are you a small child? He literally tear gassed protesters to take a photo op.

            Yeah, great job there, Biden.

            Nope. Trump’s admin.

            The Democrats literally let the Republicans have two of those seats.

            They didn’t have the house, plus they’re not great, but they’re better than Trump.

            Want to make a bet on it?

            It’s not a game and I’m not a child. He will.

            Lol no.

            Lol yeah, he literally wanted to call in the National guard, you can look it up.
