Despite his support for Trump, Ragland has become increasingly vocal about the need for immediate trade resolution. “We desperately need to get something rectified quickly with China, our biggest export customer,” he told CNN. “We wanna encourage the administration to get a proactive trade deal done.”

People have been screaming for decades how shitty GOP and Conservative/Libertarian policies are, with proper backed examples and data.

These people still didn't listen.

They chose this.

They were told this would happen, plainly enough for a child to understand, and they chose it anyway.

I've actually heard someone make the argument that it's liberals' fault because they came across as patronizing when telling people, which made them not want to listen. I wish I was kidding.

Just zero personal responsibility.

Youre right that they should have known better but you cant blame fools for being fools. You can blame the conmen who scam them.

I monitor conservative and nationalist media and they promote lies all day long. The people screaming about whats going on? Completely misrepresented or marginalized in their coverage. Its impossible to have democracy with propaganda networks ranking number 1 in the public consciousness
