Does The Democrat Resistance Against Trump Merely Mean Democrats Don't Want To Change?

[Independent thinker]

You ask a question and answer it yourself because your mind is shut and calcified.

All I was asking is what you want to change. If you don't want to change anything then just say you wouldn't change anything.

Here is reality:

Making government far more efficient is a long-overdue strategy. I'm 100% behind it, and I'd bet we could avoid cutting all that much in services if we just got rid of the waste.

Instead of this juvenile, showbizzy, adrenaline-fueled slash-and-burn fiasco, Trump/Musk could have done the smart, business-based thing and create/implement a clear, scalable, standardized auditing system that reviews all federal dollars spent anywhere (and toss in the Fed, too). Then we could have made smart, careful decisions that don't leave a trail of fucking chaotic damage behind us.

THAT is what a SMART BUSINESS does.

But no, Trump & Musk are children who are drunk on their power and celebrity.

Here is reality:

So, you don't want to change anything. This is what Americans think according to a new Harvard/Harris poll:

• Americans overwhelmingly support President Trump’s agenda.
  • 81% support deporting criminal illegal immigrants.
  • 76% support a “full-scale effort to find and eliminate fraud and waste in government.”
  • 76% support closing the border with additional security and policies.
  • 69% support keeping men out of women’s sports.
  • 68% support government declaring there are only two genders.
  • 65% support ending race-based hiring in government.
  • 63% support “freezing and re-evaluating all foreign aid expenditures and the department that handled them.”
  • 61% support reciprocal tariffs.
  • 60% support direct U.S. negotiations with Russia to end the war in Ukraine.
  • 59% support cutting government spending already approved by Congress.
  • 57% support ending the ban on new offshore drilling.

I show you exactly what I want to change and how, and you say I don't want to change anything.

This is why I no longer bother. Why I just cut and pasted another post of mine.

You are a mindless Trumpster. You really should change your screen name. It's a bad joke.

I must have missed it. What do you want to change?

I was thinking today, is the resistance against Trump merely an acknowledgement that Democrats want the same ole, same ole and don't plan on changing anything? I mean voters clearly wanted a change from where we were. Trump won big and he won in every single swing state as voters clearly rejected where we were and most democrat policies.

So, by resisting everything Trump, democrats seem to be saying they want the opposite of Trump and don't intend on changing anything, even though that's why they lost big back in November. I don't hear hardly any of them saying they support a change in Democrat policies. They just want to reject Trump and go right back to what made them lose in the first place.

YES. BUT...


It is sort of a default decision. THey just don't have the cohesion for a better answer, nor do they actually have a better answer.

So, the default is to just hope that Trump is a fluke or that Trump manages to fail, mostly, and everything just goes back to the way it was.


It is not an unreasonable hope. The institutional weaponization that the libs have done to society and economy is DEEP. Any and all lefties that manage to survive though Trump, come a post trump America, will go right back to pushign the lefty agenda.

It might take a couple of years to regain lost control, but if they can, they will.

And here we go yet again dodging the question. If you answered it then show me which post number to read.

How about Biden? He allowed terrorists to take over Afghanistan, the Russians to invade Ukraine, allowed 26% inflation, high crime in our cities, illegals to flood across the border, allowed men to compete in women's sports, use their bathrooms and dressing rooms, brought us closer to WWIII than we have ever been, colluded with social media and the MSM to further the democrat party similar to what Putin does in Russia, used lawfare against political enemies by weaponizing the justice system, took American's rights away during the pandemic, pre-emptively and unconditionally blanket pardoned his son, friends and relatives, some of whom hadn't even been charged with crimes, just to name some off the top of my head.

Trump made the deal with the Taliban
A deal he never bothered to coordinate with Afghanistan

Biden paid the price

Trump would not have pulled out of Afghanistan so badly. But, it seems you agree with me on every other one of my points, so, that's something.

Yes .. yes .. Democrats want to continue down the path focused on diversity, equity, inclusion, race, and all the other hot topics they deem relevant, which ultimately killed their chances of securing a presidential election. They need to continue this narrative to ensure they position themselves better in the midterm elections.

Yes, after months of reflection on their election losses, Democrats have finally decided they aren't going to change anything and hope Trump fails.

So I'll humor you. If Trump "secured" a deal, why did Democrats respond with such a disastrous withdrawal against military input and guidance? Do Democrats just do what they are told?

Thats a stupid lie. Biden could have done plenty to halt oil production that he didn't.

Your graph is just for "public lands", it is NOT the total number of permits. Biden stopped all permits on FEDERAL lands.
He did enough to cause gas prices to rise, then he started to change course when the 2024 election was approaching.

Biden Begins Climate War With Attack On Energy Industry That Will Ignite Inflation

In what will be remembered as the ‘shot heard round the world’ fired by the Biden Administration, the first salvo of Executive Orders foretells pain for consumers and the economy in the form of higher energy costs.

www.forbes.com

President Biden’s administration, in an unprecedented flurry of executive orders, has taken direct aim at fossil fuels, most especially oil and gas.

Price Tag for Biden’s War on Oil and Gas

Oil prices are rising as U.S. production remains stunted from 2019 levels, despite prices 50 percent higher. Estimates are that…

www.instituteforenergyresearch.org

This has led to higher profitability for the surviving energy companies, as the price of oil has almost doubled since the years of the Trump administration.

Biden Makes Sweeping Changes to Oil and Gas Policy

The Biden administration has imposed a moratorium on new oil and gas leasing on public lands, rattling investors and producing states.

www.csis.org

In a January 27 executive order that introduced a sweeping, government-wide approach to climate policy, Biden announced several new oil and gas policies. The Biden administration is halting new oil and gas leasing on federal onshore lands and offshore waters “to the extent consistent with applicable law.”

Congradulations you've just admitted that he didn't do everything he could to raise prices and your prior statement was hyperbolic.

1. Yes he did everything he could to raise gas prices with his first EOs in 2021
2. Then he saw how stupid that was and he tried to lower gas prices in 2023

Totally accurate and consistent summary.

 

[rightwinger]

So I'll humor you. If Trump "secured" a deal, why did Democrats respond with such a disastrous withdrawal against military input and guidance? Do Democrats just do what they are told?

Because Trump only left 2000 troops to secure the withdrawal
For reference, he released 5000 Taliban prisoners

Biden evacuated 125,000 people from Afghanistan

By change you mean a return to 1890s a Merica.

No, we don’t want that so-called change.

WE ALL NEED to TRY looking at other ways of thinking,
This Hate filled divided way we are going IS NOT in AMERICAS BEST INTEREST.

Nope.
They just hate Trump.
That;s all there is to it.
