Because left people don’t do that … and therefore don’t vote with this shit

Only right wing people do (looking at you swing voters)

    Because only dumbfucks do stupid shit like that. Good god imagine missing the dogshit Bush administration.

    Well, by comparison to the current administration. I would much rather have the shrub back.

    Bush created ICE (plus the surveillance state apparatus we're stuck with today), invaded Iraq, had a stupid border fence, and had surging oil prices towards the end of his term along with the greatest financial crisis since the great depression. Trump is merely following the same script, financial crisis pending.

    I mean yeah, but he's even more inherently unlikable, and less of an orator than Bush. Beyond his obvious contempt for "lesser Americans" that Bush could downplay and sell as "compassion".

    Because Democrats are less petty?

    I'd say it's a question of the style of pettiness. The Dems just clutch their pearls it seems when insulted, gossip about the opponents like snide school girls, "accidentally" undercutting the public's likelihood to even care if a reps been raping senate staff as usual for instance.

    I don't know, not saying there's a conspiracy. Saying systemic injustice and greed motivated service of state's people are bed fellows.

    Because the right is very good at propoganda and the democratic party often doesn't bother. Another example is how the conservatives are waaayy ahead of the liberals as far as Internet presence goes, they've been bankrolling people like Joe Rogan and Theo Von for more than a decade.

    Somewhat related, I haven't seen "I did that" stickers at gas station pumps for the current administration either...

    They took the "I did this" sticker without all the, "You people are stupid! The president doesn't control gas prices!" rage.
