BAIT & SWITCH

Biden/Pelosi have advanced the GOP agenda more effectively than Trump or McConnell.

◼️ Protesters brutalized
◼️ Miller's border policy embraced
◼️ Military budget growing
◼️ ICE budget growing

And Biden defends the filibuster, which hinders voting rights reform.

"Fool me once, shame on — shame on you. Fool me — you can't get fooled again." - George W. Bush

I spent years inside the Democratic establishment and I finally accepted the brutal truth: When Biden and Pelosi call for a stronger Republican Party, they mean it.

If you're surprised that Trump's thugs (like Miller, Barr, Pompeo, Pence, etc.) are enjoying life and signing book deals, recall what Dem leaders did to rehabilitate Bush and his war criminals...

What's particularly outrageous is that the Democratic leadership has embraced Stephen Miller's barbaric border policy.

And of course liberals, who only think it's bad to cage children when Trump does it, are largely silent.
