I have lost patience... [View all]

Usually I am hoping that Democrats will alleviate the worst consequences of voters voting for Republicans. But I'm tired of it (after 1976, 1992, 2008, and 2020). We saved everyone after COVID. We tried to restore democracy after the coup / insurrection. We even tried to save Republicans from themselves in the House of Representatives by saving Mike Johnson so Ukraine aid could pass. But now, I want them to feel everything that they voted for in 2024. I want the high prices. I want the economy to crash. I want them to live in the cesspool that they voted for. And I want them never to forget that they are "finding out..."
