If Joe Biden hasn't done anything, then why does Trump have so many things to revoke and reverse?

Feel like almost every day there's a headline about something new that Trump promised to reverse (for the worse).

Not saying Biden has done nothing, but if you haven't noticed yet, the GOP standard play is to take the most lukewarm democrat positions, pretend it's the end of western civilization, and then promise things will be fixed once he's elected.

Ie, CRT, Wokeness, DEI, whatever "monster of the week" they pick as an enemy. They always swap it around.

Right wing outrage farmers have been doing exactly that for my enture life.

D&D was the biggest evil ever, back in my teenage years.

And before that it was the Satanic Panic.

There's always something they want us to be scared of.

For a while gay marriage was going to be the end of civilization!

Because getting people riled up in culture wars gets their mind off of real issues. It’s the ol street magician trick of getting people to look at their right hand while the left hand is stealing your watch.

CRT

The liberals think they can push cathode ray tubes on the rest of us?? I'm fine with them using sinful processing components in their own homes, but this would be violating my rights as an american!

A lot of it is posturing.

Trump claims that Joe Biden made the military Woke and bimbofied all the generals. All the universities teach are the Perverted Arts. And the TikToks are turning your kids Chinese.

But when he's President, he promises to fix all of that on Day One.

This week they were even against energy efficient applicances.

They're against anything that the Democrats want. If the Democrats decided to fix the pothole out front, Republicans would rally in favor of potholes' right to damage your car.

Biden hasn't done well addressing the core issues driving the voters he needs--ie young voters and POC voters.

Trump is doing his best to mobilize his supporters, as turnout is going to determine who wins in November. I'm not sure this was a wise move for him as it could energize his opposition as well. We shall see.
