A consumption tax. A tax that hits the pocketbooks of the poorer harder and the wealthy lighter.

Not that surprising. Republicans have been painting Democrats as Satanist baby killers for decades. Republicans have also been campaigning on the lie that the Epstein list is all Democrats, Woke Hollywood, and Silicon Valley Tech Bros. To the average brainwashed minion, there is zero reason to hide the client list. They want their righteous lynchings.

Key feature for republicans is that they are persecuted at every turn. Just like Jesus!

Despite the cuts and everything, they were still warned of the potential of floods. The camp chose to ignore it.

You mean the guy that publicly bragged that owning the Miss Teen USA pageant allowed him to go backstage and ogle naked underage girls is hiding the Epstein list? You don't say.

"My pastor told me Democrats are satanist baby-killers. So I always vote Republican."

They DID see it coming, but they thought they were part of the in-group that wouldn't be affected. A disturbingly large number of us Americans are A-OK with fascism because they think they'll reap the benefits with none of the downside. We love punishment when it happens to The Other.

But I got bamboozled in 2007-2012 by the financial crisis and instead of blaming Bush and his cronies, I decided to blame the newly elected black guy. Everyone else should now suffer since my privilege was exposed as not rich enough to be unaffected!!!!!!

Yet they'll head out and vote Republican every time.

They're living in the past, trying to stimulate an economy that no longer exists, and not realizing they are the reason that economy doesn't exist anymore.

When the core tenants of your Republicanism is racism and the belief Democrats are baby killing Satanists, you don't have to think about it, you just vote R.
