It's Not Our Fault You're Stupid
Democrats have been repeatedly been labelled as “elitists” by the GOP – which usually means we are well-read, well-informed, and can speak in complete, grammatically correct sentences. But I digress.
The fact is that what you Republican voters are willing to believe – nay, swallow whole – is proof beyond any doubt that you are stupid, stupid, stupid.
You walk around in MAGA hats that were manufactured in China by a “pResident” who campaigned on putting America first. That “pResident” continues to have ALL of his branded merchandise – including every item in his hotels and golf courses – made in low-wage countries. And you still believe that he’s sincere when he says he’s bringing jobs back to the US – and that’s because you’re stupid.
You voted for Trump because he said that if elected, he would “drain the swamp” and surround himself with “the best people”. Many of those “best people” have now been indicted, have been fired, have been forced to resign, or are currently under investigation. Thirty to forty of those “best people” who are still working in the WH can’t get security clearances, and still have access to highly classified information. Many of those “best people” only have WH appointments because they’re family members, and have absolutely no experience in government whatsoever. But you think that’s just fine – and that’s because you’re stupid.
Your “pResident” claims he is innocent of colluding with the Russians. And yet he has consistently tried to shut down the investigations into his conduct, and that of his family members and friends. An innocent man says, ”Investigate anything you want, because I have nothing to hide.” Only a guilty man tries to thwart investigations that, if he truly IS innocent, would serve to vindicate him. But you still believe he has nothing to hide – and that’s because you’re stupid.
Your “pResident” held a closed meeting in the Oval Office with the very Russians he was accused of colluding with, at which time he disclosed highly classified information to them. You don’t think that is in the least bit suspicious – and that’s because you’re stupid.
Your pResident’s “best people” have lied, repeatedly, about their contacts with Russian operatives – and quickly changed their stories only after being confronted with indisputable proof that they had lied. But you think there’s nothing dishonest about people who only admit the truth when they are caught lying – and that’s because you’re stupid.
Your ”I have nothing to hide” pResident says he won’t answer Mueller’s questions because his lawyers have advised him not to. If he is innocent of any wrongdoing, why is he hiding behind his lawyers as an excuse to NOT vindicate himself? Why is your fearless leader afraid of those who are trying to determine the truth if, as he says, the truth is on his side? You don’t think there’s anything untoward about an allegedly “innocent man” refusing to tell his side of the story – and that’s because you’re stupid.
Your pResident – with ample help from his party – has passed “tax reform” legislation that sinks the country into unfathomable debt in order to provide tax-cuts to the wealthiest individuals and corporations, while giving YOU tax-breaks that amount to a few dollars per week in your paychecks. Paul Ryan actually bragged about meeting a woman who was grateful that her paycheck went up by $1.50 a week thanks to Trump’s “tax reform”, and you still think you’re getting a fair deal – and that’s because you’re stupid.
Your pResident has been proven to have lied over 2,000 times in his first year in office. You still believe he’s an honest truth-teller – and that’s because you’re stupid.
Your pResident has repeatedly praised Putin, and has now refused to implement the sanctions against Russia that were overwhelmingly voted for by congress. He insisted that he had “no ties to Russia”, despite all of the information that has now surfaced about the FACT that those dealings took place. Yet you still believe he has no ties to Russia – and that’s because you’re stupid.
All of our intelligence agencies agree that Russia interfered in our election process, and are continuing to do so. Your pResident insists that ALL of these agencies are lying, but you believe him instead of the thousands of people who work for these agencies – and that’s because you’re stupid.
Your pResident calls anything reported about him “fake news” – except the news that praises him, which he calls honest and truthful. And you take his word for it, despite his many, many proven lies – and that’s because you’re stupid.
While you’re busy calling Democrats “elitists” because we are looking at the facts instead of turning a blind eye to the obvious, while you wait for the promised jobs that will never materialize, while you sit in front of FOX-News in your MAGA hat cheering a pResident who is outsourcing your jobs, while you worship a man who brags about grabbing $#@! because he’s a “good Christian”, while you continue to swallow whole every ludicrous, contradictory statement your Dear Leader utters, we Democrats will continue to laugh at your stupidity.
What’s unfortunate is that millions of people – from deported Dreamers to those stripped of affordable healthcare – have to live with the consequences of your stupidity. But the even more inconvenient truth is that you’re living with those consequences, too. You’re just too stupid to realize it – yet.
