President Biden: Your senator Ted Budd called the infrastructure law 'a liberal Trojan horse for a socialist agenda.'

[riversedge]

I love how Biden can dish it out for those who deserve his wrath!!



President Biden: Your senator Ted Budd called the infrastructure law ‘a liberal Trojan horse for a socialist agenda.’ I don't know about you, but I don't think ensuring kids can drink clean water to avoid brain damage is a socialist agenda. I think it's just plain decency. But as you might guess, the senator hasn't been shy. He's asked on 10 separate occasions for new funding in those very laws. As they say, God bless the boy. I didn't think the senator was a socialist. But that's okay, I promised to be a president for all Americans. So, senator I'll see you at the groundbreaking

8. Too bad that those in the right wing fox bubble will never hear this about Ted Budd

It’d be nice if there were billboards in his district to call him out and also mailersa,

9. Biden, with all the concern for his age, sure can knock'em out without lifting a finger.

He is a class act. I'm glad he's representing us.

12. "Socialism never took root in America because the poor see themselves

“Socialism never took root in America because the poor see themselves not as an exploited proletariat but as temporarily embarrassed millionaires.” John Steinbeck

At least that's how Trumpsters see themselves.

13. Interesting how the GOP has rediscovered an obsession with socialism. Eisenhower probably did more for infrastructure

than any other president, and he was a Republican. He also warned us of the military-industrial complex, which places profits above people. The GOP has a devolved into a party that doesn't want the government to be involved in anything that private individual could make a profit from. The problem is, the profit motive always ends in lower quality and less service for more cost. That's why the Koch brothers worked so hard to prevent localities from providing services like bus routes and internet access that ordinary citizens desperately need.

14. Eisenhower's brother didn't like him doing so much for the commoners

16. They are just using the word socialism because Magas seem to remember it as a bad thing.

It’s for the dummies. They are also trying (failing) to dodge the Nazi moniker that has been hung around their necks.

It’s Not working either.

17. I believe the word "socialism" is a dog whistle for "giving your hard-earned tax dollars to black people."

Remember Reagan's infamous "Welfare Queen," who turned out to be a fabrication?

[Duncan Grant]

18. And their obsession with "individual responsibility".

Socialism only perpetuates poverty and social inequality. If you’re a Republican, you don’t need unions, or gov’t health care — you just need to work hard. Just like every coal miner who became a millionaire.

[BaronChocula]

21. That is exactly

how I have translated Reagan's attacks on "big gubmint" to people. Verbatim. Sometimes I've specified hard-earned WHITE tax dollars.

I like to point out that Reagan's shift from a supporter of big gubmint to its most famous opponent coincided with (among other things) the rise of the Civil Rights Movement.

20. Not a single MAGAT could even DEFINE Socialism......

...it's like making "Antifa" the boogeyman......
Not even stopping to realize their own parents fought and died to preserve their freedom by defeating fascism.
(at least that generations fascism. The current generation is fighting that war all over again...)

MAGAT's knowledge of the world is a mile wide and millimeters deep...

15. PPP greedy congress member SOB's & Catholic Church

The PPP corruption from many congress members is shameful.

Plus, can anybody tell me why the Catholic Church needed over 3 billion dollars!?

19. A little Harry Truman-ish, and I like it. More, please. (nt)

22. "...senator I'll see you at the groundbreaking..."

This is the perfect takedown.

Re-fuck-licans (pardon my French) railing and voting against "socialist" programs, and then crowing about bringing home the bacon when a road or bridge gets fixed in their district.
