Republicans can’t make a point without starting it with “what if”.

they have to invent a whole other reality to function, which is why they're always starting with "what if

Literally. It's always "what if Biden" "what if Hunter" "what if imaginary scenario" instead of what's actually happening.

And I can use a "remember when" when describing a time Republican policies hurt/killed someone. And the problem is, someone could ask the follow up question, which time?

How dare you forget false equivalence, one of their very staples.

Okay, so fun fact , Elon must DID actually buy a huge battery for South Australia several years before he went on his nutso villian arc.

I miss when he was just the crazy guy throwing money around, if he kept on that path he might have had a good legacy.

Social safety nets are so popular that FDR got elected three times in landslides. Republicans to this day, are still working hard to tear down what he established with congress back then.

When I think Republicans, I think Hoover. Only care about business owners, not the worker.

Apathetic, out of touch and delusional.
