How is this any different than Biden making sweeping environmental promises and then allocating billions to those groups?
I don't see any difference and this is something that all candidates do at every level - local, state and federal elections. I mean, look at what Mamdani promised in order to get elected.
- matwood 10mo agoYou're describing policy. Trump is literally running crypto scams from the White House.
- mapontosevenths 10mo ago> this is something that all candidates do at every level "It doesn't matter if my guy is crooked, because they're all crooked." is a big leap from him being the least bought. It's also gross. > How is this any different than Biden This is just "whataboutery." Biden's not the President. Trump is the President, and the stuff that Trump does is Trumps fault.
- Forgeties79 10mo agoThis is a classic defense of Trump I get so tired of seeing. Everyone who supports him constantly talks about how he is so different and how refreshing it is that he is not a politician, yet when he does things that can’t be explained away or justified from a moral/ethical standpoint the canned response is “well all politicians do it.” Same thing with so many of his supporters saying they aren’t republicans coupled with this insistence he isn’t actually a Republican either. His 2 landmark bills were primarily tax breaks for the wealthy/businesses. That’s been core Republican policy for almost 50 years now.
