Shaken, not stirred!
This is what I don't get about the jokers who stormed the Capitol bldg. in DC last week;
1. These folk took commercial flights, booked hotels, drove for miles to attend Dump's "Stop the Biden confirmation" rally (aka "stop the steal", "save America", etc.). That takes money, which since the pandemic started a whole lotta people just don't have to spare. So where is this pending doom all these MAGA mooks were railing about? Seems they're doing okay.
2. Prior to the Obama administration, the Shrub (aka G.W. Bush) nearly ran this country into a (2nd) Depression by putting reaganomics on steriods along with blowing the budget surplus on a bogus invasion/occupation of Iraq. Despite record setting obstructionism by the GOP, he managed to put this country on a slow recovery...something Dump took credit for and swears we as a country are doing fantastic. So why all the hand wringing about Biden, who essentially would try to continue the trend WITHOUT reinstating heinous parts of reaganomics (like tax breaks for the rich). Given that the vast majority of the yahoos that stormed the Capitol are NOT as wealthy as Trump, you'd think they'd appreciate this.
3. The Civil War ended over 150 years ago...the Confederacy (whose economic strength was based on slave labor) lost....so how exactly does Confederate flag waving/emblem wearing "make America great again".
4. For all the ballyhoo about ballot counting fraud, NONE of the Trump supporters, the Georgia governor or Trump himself mention the following: “This Is Voter Suppression”: 198,000 Georgia Residents Were Illegally Purged from Voter Rolls | Democracy Now!
This is permanent unless fixed before any new elections in Georgia. Seems MAGA mumblers could care less.
So someone explain to me what the ruckus was all about?

See folks, this is why I have this clown on IA...Matty doesn't have the brains or the balls to honestly debate and issue, especially when he can't defend the actions of his like minded compadres. Like the right wing troll that he is, Matty just fills space with bluff and bluster...nothing else. He'll be back in the IA bin soon unless he grows up and debates like an adult.
