53. Just like Hillary's emails were the biggest scandal """outside of our DU bubble."""

Fact of the fucking matter is that Joe Biden led us out of the pandemic and into the best-performing economy in the entire world, and we all could finally rest easy at night knowing our country was in stable, safe hands and no longer experiencing the day-to-day chaos that has now been BOTH Trump administrations.

Too bad the fucking idiots """outside of our DU bubble""" couldn't have recognized the value in this like we did and before they reelected the dipshit and then damn near immediately regretted their votes/non-votes as they re-realized why they and the rest of us voted him out to begin with.
