Hypocrisy!

The list is endless. You better mute those, for yourself, otherwise you will feel betrayed.

BTW, you still call yourself with a Spanish enforced identity, not your native identity?

Sorry I missed this. I would have like to know his opinion on why the democrats did not adopt a paycheck protection plan like nearly all western governments. Programs like these allowed ALL workers to stay home during covid last year and receive from 70 to 90 percent of their income. why?
Why did the richest country in human history chose to allow the most venerable of it citizens to fall behind in rent, forced to work in front line minimum jobs and practically beg for few stimulus checks all this while the corporate rich got richer. I am so sick of hearing Pelosi say her party is for the working class. Both parties are for the corporate class, make no mistake about it.

Democrat psycho-babble. Ro is a master of saying nothing, doing nothing, and spending his time on getting re-elected. Blah, blah, blah.
