How did we go from “it’s Biden’s fault everything is expensive” to “it’s actually a good thing everything foreign is expensive”?

    Because they were never being honest in the first place.

    Republicans hate critical thinking.

    FoxNews, OAN and Newsmax programming. You’d be surprised how many elderly people watch this stuff 24/7.

    lol because no one want to say they are wrong, if you fucked up…keep fucking up thats the motto of this administration.

    Because it’s never been about honesty. It boils down to Red is good, Blue is bad. And they’ll say whatever is needed to continue justifying that.

    You’re seeing the republican propaganda machine in real time. Go poke around in their insulated bubble its quite scary.

    It’s very simple. Cults repeat what they are told by their revered leaders. That’s what makes it a cult.

    Because it’s easier to blame the democrats? Republicans don’t realise how stupid they are lol

    Cause cults lie all the fucking time.

    The first indicator of it being a cult “The Leader cannot be wrong”

    Because Trumpers are in a cult. Once you accept that nothing makes sense it gets a little easier. Just a little.

    The party in power changed.

    Always blame the others and never blame yourself.

    victim mentality.

    Propaganda is a hell of a drug

    Because the only standards held by Trumps constituents, are double standards…

    It’s called a media narrative.

    It was never true. Luxury spending was hitting record highs, people weren’t hiring as much as they portrayed.

    Because lying is an integral part of fascism. Much in the way people sounded the alarm about Project 2025 and they all played dumb or claimed it was overblown and then as soon as Trump won again they were all like “lol sike we totally knew about it, have fun with that”.

    Fascists must always lie and deflect. Even when caught red handed. You must never ever let your opponents catch you lacking. Lie and deflect.

    It’s a cult, that’s why.

  25. Ozz87 Avatar

    Because it’s a cult of personality

    The same way we went from “omg hes wearing a tan suit” and “omg he put mustard on his hotdog” to being impeached and reelected after paying off a porn star”

    It’s far easier to fool someone than to convince them they’ve been fooled

    well for republicans, anyway

    Republicans are lemmings. If Trump suddenly announced that everyone had to start painting their faces orange and wearing diapers they’d do it in a hot second.

    I don’t agree with it, but it’s obvious.

    They think with Biden everything was expensive for no reason. With this guy they think everything is expensive for a reason. 

    It’s like if you said “hey buy this $8 soap.” Nobody would do it. But if you said “hey buy this $8 soap I made myself that looks like Pusheen,” you have a business doing gangbusters.
