It sure has been depressing realizing that none of the liberals actually believed what they said about immigration in the Trump years.

It's the dunk tank.
This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.
Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.
Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.
Rule 3: No sectarianism.
Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome
Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)
Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.
Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.
Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml
Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again
Libs and socdems are the type of people who like to think they’re the good guys, but only when it is convenient for them.
:aoc-crying-at-the-camps:
Not long ago I remember an article (that was misrepresented by liberals who didn't read it) about how Trump was good for trans people. And it said exactly what this tweet says, that liberals stopped a lot of anti-trans legislation in a lot of purple states purely because of their anti-Trump partisanship. Of course, everyone noted that this is just temporary. Not only that, this strategy completely fails when talking about M4A for example. Trump and the GOP hate it, but libs don't care, they refuse to support it in order to be "anti-Trump".
Hillary's stated policy during the 2016 primaries
I was a lib in 2016 and I read a NYT article on her hawkishness. I realized she'd be a lib version of neocon. I didn't look forward to her presidency at all due to that and other reasons and I was worried about her militarism because she was certainly going to win. There was no way Americans were dumb enough to elect Trump.
Can you imagine if that Iranian drone/boat thing had happened under a Clinton presidency?
Imagine what would be happening if President Sanders was implementing the identical policy
