It’s far worse than that. If one side were the clear bad guys, we could simply vote them out. But particularly on this issue, MAGA is no different than Blue MAGA. They’re all lying douchebags. The only difference is that the Dems can pretend they’re helping you because most people don’t understand the means-testing legalese they attach to every “handout” they propose.
