I'm sorry but I blame the corporate media [View all]

They have been putting profits ahead of truth for decades. They raised Trump up for years. They normalized him. They also have been waging a war against democrats for decades. They started attacking Biden in 21 and refused to acknowledge his accomplishments while exaggerating perceived failures. They set a very high bar for Harris and buried it in the ground for Trump. Now they will get to keep their tax cuts and the people will suffer for it.
