Do your own research

Was the original video satire, because teeing up the stitch video that well, purposefully, takes some skill?

I swear if the country was run by Republicans for the past 20 years they'd still be saying "Why aren't the democrats doing more!", they elect the bad apples and then blame the other side for not doing enough like having a parent marry an abusive now step-parent when all the red flags were very obvious out the gate.

I love how the "do your own research" people always seem to be just regurgitating whatever nonsense that's been fed to them by the algorithm...

Average 2026 'centrist' voter

He should have stopped at "I genuinely cannot understand ".

This perfectly encapsulates most conservative social media political commentators. The talking points fall apart with very minimal actual research.

It’s the reason that a study found people who watch Fox News were less informed on average than people who watch no news at all. They’re fed nonsense and then just go off parroting it without ever making an attempt to independently verify the information.

So many people with strong political opinions legitimately have no fucking clue what they’re talking about.

Trump will do just about anything to stop anybody from voting against him he’s known it’s coming to an end for him

Republicans:

So I did the basic research of reading what was written on the screen, specifically the dates:

HR. 2301 was introduced in 2021, during the 117^th congress... The Democrats DID hold the majority during that term, with 222:211. With Kamala Harris serving as the tie-breaking Senate vote, why didn't they get that one out of committee and to a floor vote? Also, why not introduce any of these other bills during the 2 years they DID have the potential power to pass them?

I do understand that the pragmatic answer is "Covid response was the priority taking up all the oxygen in the room and they deemed their political capital better spent on the the suite of "Build Back Better" infrastructure bills (CHIPs act, Inflation Reduction Act, IIJA, etc)" but damn in hindsight does it seem like a gaping oversight self-goal to not even attempt to address systemically codifying and securing the election process mere months after Trump incited an insurrection over massively inflated claims of voter-fraud and election stealing.
