    The Narcissist Prayer by Dayna Craig

    That didn’t happen

    And if it did, it wasn’t that bad

    And if it was, that’s not a big deal

    And if it is, it’s not my fault

    And if it was, I didn’t mean it

    And if I did, you deserved it

      It’s not even an exaggeration, this happens literally every time. It’s unreal that it still works as well as it does.

      Every Democrat since Nixon has inherited a TERRIBLE Republican economy, and has had to enter office with an immediate, emergency economic stumulus program. Biden not only had to fix the economy when he took office, he also had to launch a Covid vaccination program. Both were extremely successful, and the only problems with either one was solely because of Republican interference/ propaganda.

    Exactly how long that takes will depend on how the next couple elections go. Certainly nothing is improving while the Cheeto is in office.

    “It will take a while“ sure it will take a while after Trump is out of office. Whoever comes after him will undo all the terrible things thathe has done, and then the economy will start to recover.

      Ratchet politics. Repubs make everything shittier. Dems crank it back just enough to keep the guillotines at bay. And time marches on.
