You Get What You Get

Supporters were somehow expecting something different?

Regrets are flooding Twitter like an exaltation of Egrets: beautiful to behold, but ultimately leaving a massive trail of poop. You can’t say you weren’t warned.

In the news today: two new Biden schemes, one to redistribute more wealth to poor people, another to enrich super-wealthy Dem donors. This is what I mean when I say that Democrats are the party of the poor and politically connected rich — at the expense of the middle class.

People are shocked.. Literally SHOCKED that Joe Biden’s policies are… bad for the country.

*Gasp* <clutch the pearls>, but… but… but, we voted for Transgender equality at the expense of our women of color and daughters.

Ummm, yeah.

Women put @POTUS in the WH, Black women, in particular. The same women whose girls benefit from sports scholarships. The same women who are overrepresented in the prison population & on day one, a white man @JoeBiden signs away their rights.

Such a betrayal.

I'm honestly surprised that Biden voters didn't think something like this would happen. Have yall not been paying attention?

Apparently not. The Hill, not exactly a White Supremacist or Right-Wing rag had this to say back in May of 2020:

“Does Biden’s record warrant such confidence? Not really. In fact, Biden has a long history of lying — about himself, about his past and about events that never took place.

“Democrats want the 2020 campaign to be a referendum on President Trump. Fine, but if this is to be a contest of characters, it is only appropriate that Joe Biden’s history of fabrication and deceit – often intended to bolster his intellectual credentials – also be fair game.”

No one should be surprised! The writing was on the wall based on his 47 year career in politics.

From a history of plagiarism, to lying about the gains and policies of the Obama-Biden administration, to what he planned to do on Day 1 if he was elected president. People had a 47-year recorded history of Biden’s lies, his racism, his flip-flops, and his predilection toward inappropriate behavior with young women and children.

But that Bad Orange Man…

Orange man was bad though. Oh well you get what you get. https://t.co/eVYnWZaEcB

Jesse Kelly had this to say about suburban women. Yeah, no more mean tweets, but your daughters? That’s another story.

BREAKING: Woman doesn’t want to held accountable for doing something illogical.

I for one think it’s hilarious. Gonna love watching suburban moms who wanted nicer tweets FREAK out when little Jenny gets stomped by Trina on the soccer field.

You get what you get. Enjoy! https://t.co/ZCCtghveQU

That pledge to not banning fracking except on federal lands? Yeah, well…

“President Joe Biden’s 60-day moratorium on new oil and natural gas leases and drilling permits is prompting widespread concerns in New Mexico, where spending on education and other public programs hinges on the industry’s success.

Top Republicans in the state as well as local leaders in communities that border the Permian Basin — one of the most productive regions in the U.S. — say any moves to make permanent the suspension would be economically devastating for the state. Half of New Mexico’s production happens on federal land and amounts to hundreds of millions of dollars in royalties each year.”

A poor journalist got a revelation that the Paris Accord might not have been all it’s cracked up to be.

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (AP) — President Joe Biden’s 60-day moratorium on new oil and natural gas leases and drilling permits is prompting widespread concerns in New Mexico, where spending on education and other public programs hinges on the industry’s success.

One soul—a lifelong New Yorker—who obviously knew all about New Mexico and their economy, weighed in with this:

Perhaps diversifying the economy should be a priority in NM.

— Tío Pepito Salado (@joeymonzo) January 23, 2021

He immediately got checked, because, not every place is like New York. Duh.

How about not having decrepit politicians making decisions for places they know nothing about?

— Todd Ace Crawford (Dream Investor) (@sigmacenturion) January 23, 2021

What you mean they are getting what they voted for! Imagine my shock!

— Todd Holmes (@tdholmes17) January 23, 2021

But, in the end…

You get what you get! Lesson learned.

— Laird Bigwave (@LBigwave) January 23, 2021

Lesson learned? Not even sure about that one.

Now we have the BIG LIE about COVID. Before swearing on the Bible, Biden had this to say about the COVID recovery strategy:

“President-elect Joe Biden pledged Friday to boost supplies of coronavirus vaccine and set up new vaccination sites to meet his goal of 100 million shots in 100 days. It’s part of a broader COVID strategy that also seeks to straighten out snags in testing and ensure minority communities are not left out.

“ ‘Some wonder if we are reaching too far,’ Biden said. ‘Let me be clear, I’m convinced we can get it done.’

“The real payoff, Biden said, will come from uniting the nation in a new effort grounded in science.

“Biden spoke a day after unveiling a $1.9 trillion ‘American Rescue Plan’ to confront the virus and provide temporary support for a shaky economy. About $400 billion of the plan is focused on measures aimed at controlling the virus. Those range from mass vaccination centers to more sophisticated scientific analysis of new strains and squads of local health workers to trace the contacts of infected people.”

Now that he’s installed, Biden has changed his tune:

“Biden warned on Friday that as the outbreak continues, ‘there’s nothing we can do to change the trajectory of the pandemic in the next several months.’ The president has repeatedly warned that the situation is likely to worsen before it improves.”

“There’s nothing we can do to change the trajectory of the pandemic in the next several months” is the opposite of Biden said his entire campaign.

And he also denied he was going to ban fracking. Except now he explains he meant he would ban it on federal land. Get ready for him to lie his way out of no tax increases for the middle class.

— R Gendreau (@ferllyr) January 23, 2021

Brace yourselves, tax increases everywhere, and what happened to the COVID stimulus?

Yeah but he's blue and it didn't matter who, so you get what you get.

— Spaghetti Top-Hat (@SpaghettiTopHat) January 22, 2021

Getting what you vote for; what a concept. Amazingly, there are people still waiting with bated breath for universal healthcare. How long have they been promising this? With the current track record, how long will it be before it materializes?

Shit was annoying and yes healthcare, less taxes for regular people like me and you.. When things don't really change these fools will be calling Biden and Kamala out.. Well morons when y'all were caping for BS instead of challenging them to make real change. You get what you get

— Real_MAC611 (@TheRealMac611) January 21, 2021

Until and unless we can find some way to get rid of the scourge of Biden-Harris, that’s about the size of it.
