      They’ll just keep at it until it does change. Remember, everyone was frantic and upset the day after January 6 but nowadays it’s all just “peaceful tourists taking a walk”. Repeat a lie long enough and loudly enough - especially with the help of complicit propaganda engines across all types of media - and people will believe and defend that “reality”.

        Press play on the video? I’m not sure what to tell you, we just have to keep laughing these morons out of polite conversation since they’re so weird and deranged. They’re welcome to play in fantasy land, but not with the rest of us adults

      Yup. Bingo. This is exactly it, and other billionaires think this is the case also.

      They’re going to be really confused and outraged when people start eating them.

        Yea! It’s like they’ve never learned from history! If they ever opened up a history book they would see… Umm…

        Flips through history book

        Oh… Uhh…

        Flips more frantically through history book

        Oh… Oh no… Err…

        Throws history book away

        Anyways, the rich are definitely going to learn their lesson this time!

    His inner circle of sycophants and/or billionaire has been getting richer at the depends of everyone else in the country. He has no idea of the reality happening outside of what that circle tells him.

    Greatest economy? Isn’t this one of the cornerstones of the argument used to vote for trump? How the evil democrats said the economy was great (while simultaneously somehow acknowledging it wasn’t and trying to push policy through to boost it for middle class) and forgot about the little guy?
