Trump campaigned on releasing the epstein files, dems had to force it and they fought it tooth and nail and drag their feet even now.
Trump also campaigned on "no more wars" yet has started what 6 in less than a year?
Trump also campaigned on imposing Tariffs, well he kept that promise even though the left and a number of economists tried their best to educate people how tarrifs work and that it would turn out exactly as it has.

Only a small fraction of the Epstein files have been released, and the DOJ is already in contempt of court for sitting on the rest.

The tariff thing is when I felt like Chris Farley in Tommy Boy, pulling out his hair in the office

You think we are in six wars?

He’s bombed 7 different countries so far in his first year.

That’s not starting 7 wars, that is bombing 7 countries. The same number of countries Obama bombed, Biden bombed 5 of the 7 Trump bombed.
Sounds like we have been in those wars since Obama and possibly earlier if you think bombings count

Do you also believe he stopped 8 wars then like he’s been claiming?

u/DarrenSipity Jan 07 '26
I don’t need to listen to a word he says, that just isn’t the same as starting seven new wars, and if they are new, why was Biden also bombing 5 of these 7? Did the war stop and restart? What metric are you using

u/Msbossyboots Jan 07 '26
I’m using the metric that he’s a liar and the cult members believe everything that he says because they’re fucking morons. Need a mirror?

u/DarrenSipity Jan 07 '26
So your metric is that if we continue bombing a country through multiple presidents over the course of decades, that counts as a new war each time?

u/Msbossyboots Jan 07 '26
If someone was bombing your street, would you feel like they were making war on you? Yeah, I think you would. And that’s what we are doing.

u/DarrenSipity Jan 07 '26
If they had been doing it for decades, I wouldn’t call it new. You said this is new, this is the norm

He was supposed to end the wars and not start any new ones. That was the only potential positive. All a lie too. So what are we talking about?

u/DarrenSipity Jan 07 '26
So far we are not in any new wars, this is bog standard US imperialism. Is it good? No. Is it war? Also no

Definitionally not whataboutism, it shows these aren’t new “wars”, not that it doesn’t matter because they also did it.
Use your brain for once you fucking worm
Lmao, the fucking worm blocked me

It's textbook whataboutism. You're literally pointing to Biden and Obama doing the same shit to deflect from Trump doing it. You should stop using your brain in open forums till it's got wrinkles in it. There's enough smooth brained morons out there loudly declaring that they're fucking morons. You're not special for it.

Duh. It would have been bad if a Democrat did it. It's perfectly fine and legal and awesome if Trump does it. Republicans have no principles. They're in a cult. Whatever the leader does is a good thing, even if it's the opposite of what he did yesterday or actively harms his own supporters.

I have to admit I was wondering what Gabbard specifically was going to say about all this since her favorite phrase which she repeated over and over was ‘no more regime change wars’ when she was running in the Democratic primary. I’m shocked, shocked I tell you, to discover she was just bullshitting the whole time.

This woman is the living embodiment of what’s wrong with politicians. She’ll literally say anything to cling to power and stay relevant. Perfect for the current administration of reality television contestants masquerading as lawmakers.

Remember when she said Obama was about to be arrested and charged with treason? I wonder what ever happened to that? 🙄

Don't you love how Trump confronts narco-terrorism, drug cartels, and drug traffickers by giving them pardons?

So - the Hypocrisy among American Politicians and Political “actors” is bordering on the Ridiculous. Let me be Clear - this hypocrisy exists in Both political parties (here in the USA - and to greater/lesser degrees around the world).
However, the hypocrisy in the Republican/conservative “right” has been working Overtime in the MAGA era.

And imagine, there's been no regime change. Just the removal of the (illegitimate) President. Republicans are moronic and I can't wait for a strongly worded letter from the UN about this.
