He was still getting his feet wet in that term and he only had them all for half his term. And they at least pretended to give a shit about the less wealthy constituents, that tax break they gave to “everybody” expired for the middle and lower class after a year or two but was there for the wealthy well into Biden’s term.

This time they’re not even pretending to care. They’re relying completely on their propaganda to convince their idiotic fans that tariffs are going to be a tax on other countries and their bills will go lower as a result of it. Meanwhile they’re going to gut Medicaid and other social services in order to give money to the wealthiest people in the country.

So in answer to your comment, they will hopefully notice this time because they’re going to be hurting as a direct result of what Trump is doing as opposed to something he could deflect as being “because liberals”.

They also had all branches during W’s term when he crashed the economy and started two never ending wars.

The Republican voter is dumber than a bag of rocks. Hell, even a bag of rocks would learn faster than a Republican voter.
