Or that other thing

    That happened under Biden. Sure, it’s a direct consequence of Trump’s presidency…but this sort of causal reasoning may well be too advanced for the folks parroting this inane content to comprehend.

    Edit: what I was trying to say (apparently unsuccessfully…) was that the kind of person who thinks nothing bad happened under Trump probably won’t acknowledge that Roe vs. Wade being overturned was a direct consequence of Trump. Which is stupid — in addition to the “acute” damage that Trump did, the ongoing damage being done from his judicial appointments is arguably the most damage that he has (and will continue to) do.

        I’m saying that the folks saying “nothing bad happened under Trump” may be a few fries short of a happy meal.

          I have seen dimwits literally try to claim Dems are responsible for Dobbs because of timing. Perhaps they are the reason why people are reacting strongly to what you wrote.

            I see them blaming the Democrats for what they did. Overturn Roe vs Wade? Dems fault for the letting them do it. The mental gymnastics they do along with having the goal posts mounted to a Bugatti is amazing.

              They’re just making up bullshit

              They don’t actually believe that Dobbs was the Democrats’ fault, any more than the Republicans actually believe that Trump was a genius at international politics who got the best of China and fixed the Iran deal. They’re just making noise with their mouth, like the kid who always wants to argue about the rules and everything always needs to turn out his way and every call is in his favor or he’ll make a big stink about it.

            Yeah I edited comment for clarity…not sure if I just poorly worded it, if I stuck a nerve (seems unlikely?), or if sarcasm just doesn’t go over a series of tubes very gracefully 🤷

          Man, you chose a poor way to word the entire comment if thats what you’re suggesting. The entire thing made it sound like you’re saying it’s Bidens fault. I can’t read your comment and come to ANY other comclusion.

          You should probably edit it, and reword the entire thing. Of coarse then I’LL look insane, but thats ok. Someone will just say “username is relevant”. And probably downvote me.

          But I like to think of the people who downvote me as the kind of people who jerk off onto pancakes, cry onto them for hours, and then eats cold soggy pancakes.
