‘The rich people don’t need it ... all those Democrat donors of Wall Street, all these hedge fund guys, who all hate the tariffs,’ Republican lawmaker tells Steve Bannon
It wasn’t meant to be a rebuttal, it was meant to be a mildly condescending statement of an obvious truth
Totally both sides though
What if I told you that two things can suck, at the same time, even if they’re not exactly identical? If your choices are losing a toe or losing a leg, of course most folks would choose the toe. They’d have to be real douchebags to cheerlead for the people who cut their toe off though.
Which is exactly why the Democratic party stagnates around indecision. Every issue is “yeah, but…” Where as the Republican party just ignores literal crimes in their midst, because he’s “their guy”. This isn’t inherently an American problem, it’s a political one. Who is cheerleading? Both things can be true too, one is less evil but still needs to be fixed, it’s a lot better than literally chopping your own foot off with a blunt shovel and blaming the other guy. I’ve always been taught and discovered myself that one must always challenge authority, and to beware anyone promising you exactly what you want to hear.
Duh.

You are, when you say they represent all Americans. They represent their donors. They give lip service to all Americans.
