Democrats don’t understand that people living in the slums do not give a shit about China or Russia. They are not afraid of some Spetsnaz operator parachuting into Georgia and planting a flag.
You’d think with how obsessed liberals are with the war in Ukraine, they would’ve seen reports and interviews of the everyday poor, rural Ukrainian just trying to ignore the war and go on with their lives. They may have opinions, but guess what? Your stomach doesn’t stop growling just because of a two guys fighting each other outside your house.
The republicans will pay lip service and come up with 500 excuses and shift the blame to the liberals when they fail to help the poor. The democrats will do the same but blame republicans, but then they actively become hostile and berate poor people for gasp wanting the government they voted for to fucking help them. Like, they’re genuinely offended, hurt fucking feelings, because you dare ask them for a crumb of the infinite money pie. How dare you ask me for something, you piece of shit?
Biden and the democrats tried to move heaven and earth to get tens of billions of dollars to Ukraine and Israel. For equipment that would just have gotten blown up and not affected the outcome in former, and to help continue an ongoing genocide in the later. Meanwhile Flint doesn’t have clean drinking water.
Real “Whitey on the Moon” type shit.
Trying to force the reintegration of the Donbas into Ukraine was his first attempt at genocide (as a president).
