Demagoguery is so much fun, and so easy!

“Here is our alternative plan, detailing exactly how we will balance the budget, attack waste and fraud, secure our borders, and provide housing, medical care and free education to all and every deserving world citizens we have invited into our country”
Governor Ned Lamont on the passage of Beullah’s Busty Budget:
“This bill is going to have devastating impacts on millions of Americans for years to come and was passed for the sole purpose of giving tax cuts to millionaires and billionaires. It will amount to a massive income transfer from the poorest and most vulnerable Americans to the wealthiest. ….
“Not only does this plan bankrupt the federal government, but it slashes critical safety net programs … And to top it all off, this bill will saddle our children and grandchildren with trillions in additional debt.
Reached on his yacht off Nantucket and informed of Governor Lamont’s response, Connecticut’s junior senator Murphy refused to take second place to anyone in the hysteria section of the political arena: “Oh, yeah? Ned’s upset? Well I’m more than that, I’m literally shaking with fury. Look at my trembling hands: that’s not morning-after rum fingers, that’s genuine, sincere anger! Whoo, boy am I mad!”
The Democrats ran a campaign promising that, if elected, they would change nothing, that the policies of the previous four years would continue exactly as they were. The voters rejected that vision, and idiots like Murphy and Lamont still haven’t gotten over their hurt feelings. Suck it up, boys.
