    Dem cheerleaders are blue maga. Nothing the Dems do are ever part of the problem; it’s always someone else’s fault.

    It wasn’t non-voters who forced the Dems and Biden to do the following:

    • For his first official act, Biden fought with his own party to prevent regular people from getting an already promised $600 check; completely ignoring the fact no one expected any PPP loans to be repaid.
    • Pulled a complete 180 on immigration, successfully building even more of the border wall and deporting more people than Trump.
    • Refusing to even entertain the idea of stopping Israel’s genocide in Gaza, even at the known expense of voters.
    • Declared the Covid-19 pandemic over by simply no longer testing for it, despite it continuing to overwhelm hospitals and kill people, all so that people could be forced back into work.
    • Ripped pandemic era support away from citizens that was responsible for nearly eliminating childhood poverty and food insecurity; forcing people back into $7.25 an hour minimum wage jobs with no benefits.
    • Refused to do anything about the increasing violence and state hostility towards queer people, especially in red states.
    • Scolded to constituents for not giving Biden enough credit because they insisted the economy was great (but only for the wealthy.) They ignored that inflation (caused solely by corporate price gouging they refused to challenge) grew more than wages. Sure, wages began to outpace inflation, but total inflation since the start of the pandemic is still higher than wage growth in the same period.
    • Made student loan forgiveness a means-tested application process that they then sat on for two months, instead of immediately clearing balances and destroying documents, as if begging SCOTUS to block them.
    • Doing absolutely nothing to restrict the unchecked presidential powers they worked with the GOP to expand for the last several decades, even as the threat of a second, even more overtly fascist Trump administration became more and more likely.
    • Dicked around for 2 years not taking the prosecution against Trump seriously and making this entire ordeal a possibility in the first place.

    This election was entirely the fault of the Democratic leadership. They failed. All blue maga does is try to deflect blame from them while they continue to screw all of us.

    And, remember, it almost didn’t even work the second time. Biden was the only candidate running for the nomination poised to lose to Trump and he was forced on us, seemingly as punishment for us demanding healthcare. They were willing to throw 2020 and would have lost had the unpredictable and extraordinary circumstances of Covid-19 not occurred, along with Trump’s absolutely bungled response. Covid-19 was the sole event that propelled Biden to the white house. And then he was exactly as ineffective and terrible as all leftists predicted and we got Trump back because of it.
