    Yeah they did such a great job with the neoliberal austerity, surveillance state, and illegal wars of aggression. Crazy that Trump got elected anyway!

    You know Trump is fucking awful when this fascist-adjacent simpleton Dubya is seen as the good guy.

    Trump only exists as a president because of Dubya.
    Fuck Dubya with a stiff wire brush…

    Those are literally the people who brought us trump.

    Bush’s open illegality and rampant theft begun the institutional decline that his friends in the trump regime sped up. Obama needed to punish the wrongdoing but deliberately chose not to with his “looking forward not backward” policy, cowardly shying away from our last chance to avoid descending into authoritarianism. Clinton’s glaring weaknesses as candidate, her husband’s involvement with the trump-epstein ring and the corrupt insistance of the DNC to run a business-as-usual servant of the rich against a much more shameless servant of the rich neutralized many of the angles of attack that could’ve put 2016 out of trump’s reach. Biden had already seen the first act of authoritarianism in the US, and just sat there, refusing to do anything to prevent it happening again.

    These are the people who had the most power to prevent authoritarianism and the closer it got, the less they did about it.

    Give all these monsters a decade and a half, and I guarantee you the ones who are still alive will be partying it up with Trump after spending a decade sanewashing him because they all want to do, and have done, just as monstrous things as Trump.
