This is absolutely historical fact.
It’s amazing so many people don’t realize this.
Need to add the part where money from those tax cuts is supposed to trickle down
Don’t forget the scapegoating of marginalized communities as well. It happened in 2004 with the anti-gay campaign with Bush
It is called “The 2 Santas Strategy”
2, 4 & 7. Use friendly media to blame socialism and Democrats for the debt, and call them failures.
The Republicans couldn’t win anything of importance (with their current policies) if the public weren’t misinformed and/or brainwashed by propaganda fed to us by media organizations who benefit from their corporate tax policies and lack of oversight or regulation.
Are we sure there will be a next election?
Conservatives here (Australia) do the same
Just asked Perplexity for grins and look what I got back:
Statistical evidence indicates that the U.S. economy performs better under Democratic presidents compared to Republican ones. Since World War II, GDP growth averages 4.23% during Democratic administrations versus 2.36% under Republicans, with job creation also significantly higher at 1.7% per year compared to 1.0%[3][5]. Additionally, unemployment rates are lower, and income growth is more equitable under Democrats[1][4]. Despite these findings, public perception often favors Republicans as better economic managers, highlighting a disconnect between statistical performance and voter beliefs[2][6].

And now people who wanted the abolition of Obamacare are like “oh shit, it’s OUR healthcare we’re using.”
The sad part is that not only those who voted the Leopards Eating Faces party are going to get their faces eaten. Karma is less satisfying when innocent bystanders get involved too in the consequences of someone else’s actions.
The idea that Republicans are better for the economy has got to be one of the longest running, giant load of horse crap of a lie ever perpetrated on the American people.
But the American people, enough of them, have short memories or just vote strictly on religious grounds, which is why we keep taking 2 step backs for ever 1 step forward in solving any number of major challenges being campaign on for over 40 years (before I was born)
Very true but if you just listen to fox “news” and the like you would never think that.
Ridiculously
Yup, just had an annoying conversation (at least civil) with a Trumper who replied to this with the typical “well the rich being taxed more wouldn’t fund the government.”
To which I replied “well then requiring they pay less doesn’t help things either… It just makes it worse.”
He had no answer and walked away.
I was literally typing this out to my friend tonight… minutes ago.
where is “dumb down the citizenry by defunding education and replacing it with bible studies”?
Two Santas strategy.

This is what the Conservatives have done to Labour in the UK. They have run down the NHS, Prison Service, and other government departments all whilst giving tax breaks on NI, farmers, and business owners. Now, there is a national blackhole in the budget of 40 billion, and Labour has no choice but to raise the taxes to stop this country from breaking.
Missing the step with Russian propaganda
The truth of this is deeply upsetting.
The sad part of this is Dems still can’t figure it out.
This only works because republican voters seem to have a <4 year memory and forget when republicans in office make everything worse to then blame it on the Dems
Blame the millions of idiots that keep falling for it.
When unsuccessful with horrible methods to steer the economy the very next action will be to blame the Dems.
Every fucking time
Glad someone is paying attention. Now if we can get out of this loop.
So you have it all figure it out and still can’t stop him?
He might be in poor faith but y’all down right incompetent
