Why are the Trump defenders here at fff.net such strange people?
I post about Biden* the exact same way I've been posting about Hillary* and about democrats* in general since 2015. I point out that they've been handing out jobs overseas, and quietly hiding in the corner when it comes to standing up for the little guy. And all YOU have in your lack-of-critical-thinking-reply is -

BUT TRUMP!!




If democrats* don't do any different, how are they any better?


And when Biden* fails to keep his promises - or even promote them - I'll be happy to laugh at his skinny saggy ass parading all over town in his New Clothes™.

How many factories moved from the USA to China before Trump then back to the USA under Trump? None. Americans buy products with labels saying NOT MADE IN AMERICA. I think you are confused about who does not care about the "little guy". American consumers don't care. That is why they seek out the NOT MADE IN AMERICA label, because it is cheaper when not made by a "little guy" who is an American citizen. That's why consumers do not support Unions, because non-unionized labor is cheaper. That's why consumers hire illegal aliens to remodel houses and mow lawns, because illegal is cheaper than hiring a "little guy" who is an American citizen. That's why consumers do not support raising the minimum wage to a living wage for a "little guy", because it is cheaper to pay $7.25/hour than $20/hour.

Trump was a corrosive. What he mainly corroded was social trust — the most important element in any successful society.

I was reminded of this again reading an extraordinary essay in The Washington Post by former Secretary of State George Shultz, who turned 100 on Sunday. His central lesson after a life that spanned combat service in World War II, labor disputes in steel plants, the dismantling of segregation and making peace with the Soviets: “Trust is the coin of the realm.”

“When trust was in the room, whatever room that was — the family room, the schoolroom, the locker room, the office room, the government room or the military room — good things happened,” Shultz wrote. “When trust was not in the room, good things did not happen. Everything else is details.”

What Shultz attests from personal experience is extensively documented in scholarly literature, too. In high-trust societies — think of Canada or Sweden — people tend to flourish. In low-trust societies — Lebanon or Brazil — they generally don’t.

Trump’s presidency is hardly the sole cause of America’s declining trust in our institutions, which has been going on for a long time. In some ways, his was the culmination of that decline.

But it’s hard to think of any person in my lifetime who so perfectly epitomizes the politics of distrust, or one who so aggressively promotes it. Trump has taught his opponents not to believe a word he says, his followers not to believe a word anyone else says, and much of the rest of the country to believe nobody and nothing at all.

He has detonated a bomb under the epistemological foundations of a civilization that is increasingly unable to distinguish between facts and falsehoods, evidence and fantasy. He has instructed tens of millions of people to accept the commandment, That which you can get away with, is true.

Apologists for this president might rejoin that there are also examples of this form of politics on the other side of the aisle, notably in the person of Bill Clinton. That’s true. But it only causes one to wonder why so many of the same conservatives who vehemently objected to Clinton on moral grounds vehemently support Trump on the absence of moral grounds.

It may take Americans decades to figure out just what kind of damage Trump did in these last four years, and how to go about repairing it. The good news: no global thermonuclear war. The bad: a different kind of radioactivity that first destroys our trust in institutions, then in others, and finally in ourselves. What the half-life is for that kind of isotope remains unmeasured.

Yep, here we go again. Comrades’ kiki and sig are back into complaint mode. They’re beginning to break out and dust off all the old grievances they put away while Trump was president.

I’m fucking cracking up while writing this post because kiki in an above post, is feverishly prosecuting some of her Obama complaints again. Bidens not even in the White House, yet to her he’s already doing a catastrophic job.

She’s still Trumps shill. Still a sidewalk hawker trying to sell her goods and wares to unsuspecting dopes. Kiki sig, that ship sunk when you put away those complaints and refused to prosecute your case, any case, against Trump.

Shoo comrades, your presence is like being in a room with people you dislike.

Trumps attempting a coup, an illegal seizure of power, and it's apparently ok with sig kiki jack rappy jsf whozit jonzssong and so on. Not a word from any of them about what where're seeing unfold in plain sight; in real time. Witnessing their silence is like watching the three monkeys. Hear see and speak no evil when it comes to Trump.

Yet they are complaining about Biden. Can you say fraud. I can. I can say fraud.
