It is so hard to understand good friends. They watch the only news network (FOX) that was fined $787 million in the Dominion case for not telling the truth (lying) about the election. They see the Jan. 6 Capitol Insurrection as nothing more than political expression and yet nine people died, 174 police were assaulted and the Capitol building was vandalized in the amount of millions of dollars. More than 1,200 people were charged and 460 imprisoned and yet former President Donald Trump wants to pardon them if he is elected.
My friends seem to forget the former president gave a trillion-dollar tax cut to only the wealthy and not the middle class, which raised the national debt by $8.4 trillion. You see they support the former president when he makes fun of his opponents by giving them degrading names; they support the former president when he makes fun of handicapped people; they support the former president when he believes Medicare and Social Security should be cut; they support him when he agrees with Russia’s Vladimir Putin rather than his own U.S. government intelligence officials; they support him when he’s been convicted of fraud in his business dealings; they support him when he says, “There’s going to be a blood bath” if he doesn’t win in 2024; they support the former president when he wants to jail his opponents from the military; they support the former president who opposed the media platform “Tik Tok” and then changed his mind after receiving a campaign contribution (same thing happened with “Bud Light”); they support the former president even after he was convicted of rape. The long list of bad deeds goes on and on with the former president. It is so hard to understand good friends.
