    If you only care when Trump does it, it’s Trump derangement syndrome. Biden pushed forward with many of Trump’s worst policies, and Democrats didn’t have shit to say about it then.

      You talk as if trump is “normal”, ignoring the kinds of things he says, how he says them, who he says them to, his tantrums in all caps on social media, his lack of poise, professionalism, and diplomacy. The guy is abrasive as fuck. You must have bad memory.

        Exactly. Neoliberals do not oppose Trump policies, but his lack of decorum. Which is why they had no problem with Obama and Biden quietly progressing fascism. They don’t like that he says the quiet part out loud, and gives away the game.

            I’m applying the appropriate label to your neoliberal principles that you have openly espoused here.

                Enlighten me.

                Your comment is entirely taking issue with Trump’s lack of decorum. No specific issue with policies. Classic neoliberalism.

                  Lol. So you assumed that means I like his policies and categorized me as a neoliberal. That’s a huge assumption. You’re clearly not talking to me, you’re having a discussion with phantoms in your head that you project on to me.

                    K. Which policies do you oppose? If you want people to believe you have a problem with more than his lack of decorum, focusing solely on that is not an effective way to communicate that.

      Politics is not about rational decision making as studies have shown. However most people think that they are completely logical with there political views. In reality they decide on a view and then find evidence to support it. It also doesn’t help that the “news” these days is mostly a propaganda outlet whatever party they support.

      I disagree with the idea that Biden is just as bad as Trump. Biden barely did anything in office. Trump is going full swing to push forward his policies. At least he has balls. (That may be one of his best qualities honestly)
