And he is incapable of anything but bluster and unilateral destruction.

digginsdweller.bsky.social•45 days ago

Anything that goes writing will be the previous guy's fault

captain-corona.bsky.social•45 days ago

Talk is cheap. Like his hair piece.

andyknudsen64.bsky.social•45 days ago

I hate the way these MAGA authoritarians spread disinformation and blame to take advantage of these kinds of crises, which does way more harm than good. There is no empathy. EVERY event is used for political gain. I'm already looking out for the next Reichstag fire. I don't think Americans are ready

csmith24.bsky.social•45 days ago

The buck never stopped with him. He refused to take any responsibility for Covid and he still got re-elected.

kevinr.bsky.social•45 days ago

Except that he doesn’t care about those challenges

blake105.bsky.social•45 days ago

Oh how naive. When has this man ever been judged by his deeds? There is no evidence of this whatsoever. Pre and post first presidency.

MY GOD! 🤦‍♀️🤯

erickbt.bsky.social•45 days ago

And even when he’s in office (I don’t he will make it to Jan 20 due to his frail health)… DONT report on what he SAYS, only report on what he DOES

hucklepuck-chuck.bsky.social•45 days ago

Yes, all media needs to focus on their inactions, not the BS they distract us with.

mikalani.bsky.social•45 days ago

MAGA doesn't care.

suanish.bsky.social•45 days ago

Surely you jest? When. Ever. Did he ever care about “challenges” or “governing”. And when pray tell did “deeds” ever bother him? You are not talking about a sane man you are talking about a walking advertisement of the need for mental health intervention

jilltopia.bsky.social•45 days ago

His MAGA cult supporters will never judge him by his deeds.

tutuafuvai.bsky.social•45 days ago

He has never taken responsibility for anything that did not help him. I dread the next four years. Even if his tenure is short, we still will be faced with JD.

rickskron.bsky.social•45 days ago

After he renames the gulf to the Gulf Of America, he could change Rio Grande to Big River, Las Vegas to The Meadows, Dos Equis to Two Horses. And Tex-Mex to Tex-Tex.

Promises made, promises kept.

hittielove2.bsky.social•45 days ago

His followers won't judge him by his deeds. If they did, he never would have been re-elected. He can starve them, bankrupt them, and let them die from pandemics, and they'll just blame the Libs.

pgroshon.bsky.social•45 days ago

The buck never stopped with him…according to him!

tawny1108.bsky.social•45 days ago

Four years will feel like eternity. And what if he tries to NOT leave. God help us please. He is an abomination.

ricklanting.bsky.social•45 days ago

In the same way that he was “judged” for his crimes? 🤷‍♂️

v-ron.bsky.social•45 days ago

Deeds filtered thru a corrupt SCotUS + Congress with a propaganda media circus performing 24/7

I have (even) less hope in accountability this go-around

sapient-hominid.bsky.social•45 days ago

Not by MAGA, he won't. They'll accept and praise anything he does, or doesn't do.

gonnerinsocal.bsky.social•45 days ago

Honestly, at this point I want it to start so he starts owning stuff and we can blame him for things

linderfield.bsky.social•45 days ago

He will continue to lie. They will continue to believe him, despite any/all evidence. We are doomed.

bd-sint.bsky.social•45 days ago

Judged by people awash in propaganda and disinformation, and by the Supreme Court that he and his Republicans took control of.

lamberic.bsky.social•45 days ago

He takes no responsibility. It's not his fault, according to him.

mblehrhoff.bsky.social•45 days ago

He'll blame others even as he sits in the Oval Office. The buck never even gets to Trump's zip code. Unfortunately, it will be up to our crack media to call him on this, and they have not exactly shown themselves to be up to the task.

scottroodvoets.bsky.social•45 days ago

Yep!!!

ravenna321.bsky.social•45 days ago

But will he really? He can spin something right out of existence and half the population believes it.

gonnerinsocal.bsky.social•45 days ago

He won the election by 1%. It won’t take a big swing for him to be unpopular which will weaken him.

scottroodvoets.bsky.social•45 days ago

Yep!!!

scottroodvoets.bsky.social•45 days ago

He managed to avoid accountability for failures in his first term, and he gets a lot if help from media spinning alternative narratives that convince the ignorant he is a success.

kenboulder.bsky.social•45 days ago

Maybe? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

gshifrin.bsky.social•45 days ago

Didn’t happen last time!

andy-mccormac.bsky.social•45 days ago

No, he’ll still be judged by just talk by his supporters. If they cared about facts and performance, they would’ve never voted for him.

czarofangola.bsky.social•45 days ago

Who will be judging him? The media that has already bent the knee? The Oligarchs who already bent the knee? The people who didn't vote? The who voted for him? Fetterman who already put on Sinema's best dress?

tahut131.bsky.social•45 days ago

Never has. Never will. Unfortunately.
