Thank you, Donald Trump. You have done the one thing no Democrat could ever have done.

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

You have destroyed the Republican Machine.

Think back, if you will, four years, and imagine a Clinton presidency. In a country where Congress is solidly Republican, SCOTUS is reliably Republican, and States are mostly Republican, just as they were when Obama left office. In a country where Bill O’Reilly and Rush Limbaugh rule the news.

Imagine Mitch switching effortless from impeding Obama’s every move to obstructing Clinton. Imagine the racist dog whistles becoming feminist dog whistles overnight. Imagine 24 hour Bengazi coverage on every channel and in every newspaper.

Imagine Republicans blocking all aid to Puerto Rico and blaming Clinton for inaction. Imagine blaming COVID-19 on Clinton, accusing her of working with China to spread a virus in the red states after accusing her of attacking American freedoms with her social distancing, lockdowns, and masks.

Thank you, Donald Trump.

They say if you give a man enough rope, they will hang themselves. Thank you for being the rope salesman.

1. It ain't dead yet. Lots of fight left in that gator.

Won't be done until the bubbles stop.

[uponit7771]

2. Dems would have to keep a years long campaign demonizing of Trump sycophants afterwards ...

... I don't think we will.

It'll be hard

[FoxNewsSucks]

3. I'm afraid it's far from destroyed.

There's a LOT of bad shit coming. The results of republicon policy. I genuinely believe the evil (but non-stupid) republicon leaders want a Democratic scapegoat to take the blame for what they caused.

[walkingman]

5. You are exactly right -it is part of the GOP playbook. They love to reap the economic rewards of

incompetency and then use their mess to cut more and more regulations and social programs. The net result is always a loss for the working class in America.

[AleksS]

8. Yup. 15 minutes into Biden's admin. expect

Expect round-the-clock news coverage asking “why isn’t it fixed yet?” And “is it time for Democrats to own this mess?” And all that garbage.

Remember when Obama had to clean up after shrub? DAYS into his administration, the right wing machine was shouting about “why hasn’t he fixed everything yet?”

[Chili Pepper]

12. And don't forget ...

… the need for the all important balanced budget!

Everything Biden will want to do will be countered with "But how are we going to pay for it?" Naturally, social programs will have to be cut.

And the news cycle will let the right spout that all day long without any challenges.

[Blecht]

4. There has been an unacceptable amount of collateral damage

Kids in cages and 136.1k dead (and counting) just to name two of a growing list.

[Wellstone ruled]

6. Until the Likes of Utah,

Idaho and Wyoming change,this ugly Party lives.

[Trumpocalypse]

7. Unfortunately

A wounded animal is even more dangerous.

[czarjak]

9. To be fair, name the last time a Republican didn't screw things up.

[ancianita]

10. He's gonna wreck things the rest of his life, no thanks needed.

Gift or not, it still hasn't been worth all the suffering it has taken -- with no guarantee that the machine isn't full of "live" parts that could revive it later.

Every single election cycle, we'll have to keep beating the drum of the Trump years/message/destructions to keep this machine down.

[Mr.Bill]

11. The republicans don't even care about their own party.

What they care about is stealing several trillion dollars of taxpayer's money. Mission accomplished.

[MrModerate]

13. Sorry, but the price tag is too high. n/t

[Sherman A1]

14. The demise of the GOP has been predicted and predicted and predicted

somehow it just never comes true. Believe it well after it happens.

[lostnfound]

15. Yes, our democratic plot to get this Trojan horse to drain the swamp by drinking ALL the swamp

Has been a huge success.
Pretty clever of us to pretend we thought it was russia who hired him.

The fools fell for it!
