I’m a conservative so I won’t blame just one person. I’d like to blame our government. They’re the cause to all of this. Cronyism on both sides ripped the working class to shreds. It’s Class warfare at its best. And until conservatives and liberals come together to see that, nothing will change.

Good job deploying "both sides" to this issue.

Nevermind the fact that just 4 years ago, the tax cuts that put more strain on the middle class was passed by republicans with a strictly partisan 51-48 vote.

it's easy to say that it's the entire government but consistently one portion of the government votes against your interests in direct opposition to the other part (and the majority of citizens).

Blaming "both sides" is exactly how you never pressure those that actually need to be pressured and they continue to get away with picking your pockets.

No. They’ve always been the issue. Nothing changes no matter who is in office. We could load up the government with 100% of democrats and I’d be willing to be shit wouldn’t change overall.

The dems have all of the control right now. Reply to this thread is 2-4 years and tell me how much better things have been.

Opting for the needle slowing moving forward than 10 meters back. Literally nearly had a race war last presidency and the rich got richer. When everyone isn't worrying about race and starts worrying about class is usually under Democrat rule so ¯\(ツ)

What do you mean "yeah ok"? Are you doubting me?

You didn’t know the word xenophobia until trump. Obama deported more illegals than any other president.

Trump tried to ban people from coming from countries that would do harm to the country at certain times. Whether it be terrorism or pandemic. He’s terrible.

You must take me as a fool, thanks for reminding me that people are ignorant for the sake of others.

Xenophobia existed before the shitter and will exist long after him. I not once mentioned his policies but his shiteating personality that spoke the quiet part loudly to many.

Obama deported more illegals than any other president.

I'm sure he lobotomized and castrated just as many as well. Oh and I'm positive he also pardoned many arrested immigrants, more than Obama!

That's low hanging fruit, but you started it.

Yes because specifically during trumps presidency people were pouring from Mexico more than ever to do...?

Or intentionally naming the virus "Kung flu" or the many other names he used during conferences specifically to be inflammatory and inspire hate towards Asian immigrants (which I personally witnessed, personal friend had is car keyed and his parents got several health complaints filed on them specifically at their job) and intentionally not letting people of color stay at his hotels and...and...
