It is very clear. Crystal clear. Republicans hate Americans who aren’t wealthy and they despise this Country.
They want people to suffer so they can campaign on suffering
Republicans work for the money not the people.
what are people voting for when they vote republican?
The very straight Tim Scott
Lobbyists… that’s why we are here. The credit card companies lobby politicians to keep the fees high. There’s no other reason to keep these fees so high.
Republicans have always been the rent-seeking party.
meanwhile, in louisiana:

The GOP only care about party power and the rich.
Bc a percentage of those fees go to lobbying, which goes right into their pockets. Fuck the gop
There is a constant narrative that everyone is struggling and republican voters blame biden. I can see why they’d want to make them struggle even more when they don’t blame them.
The GOP hates you. Yes, you laddie. And you keep voting for them.
GOP hates you. Yes, YOU.
These bums all get kick backs, nothing will ever be fair for us lower level ppl
Who is voting for these people?
They want to limit healthcare, force kids to work, get rid of education, make us basically corporate slaves, offshore work.
What good do these people stand for? Their 401k only?
All those companies need to make enough money to bribe the republican congress
More CLEAR EVIDENCE that republican legislators just don’t give a shit about the average American citizen.
It’s not that they don’t care about average Americans suffering — it’s just that they care more about wealthy donors being rich and happy.
That isn’t even surprising. I have a relative that I’m sure about Republican and just put a thing on her Facebook about bullshit bank charges. Hi got the Democrats might not deliver on what they’re saying or maybe they’re outwardly lying but the Republicans not regulating businesses is their entire brand.
If you’re gonna spend more than you can cover, take a loan don’t put it on a cc
Taxes for the rich = STEALING FROM THE AMERICAN PEOPLE!! 🇱🇷
Junk fees for the poor = PICK YOURSELF UP BY YOUR BOOTSTRAPS!! 🇱🇷
Well, the flock isn’t gonna fleece itself.
How effing useless can they be? Like lets take away opportunities from everyone and stiffle all economic growth….all while rolling back every rule to keep anyone safe ever. But the billionaires make more money.
Rural America still voting for them. It’s baffling.
If they wanna make us into a Christian nation I say we bring back Usury laws. Make it illegal to collect interest.
As some I replied to stupidly said “Democrats and Republicans are mostly the same Fiscally”.
Even though they are literally not.
Do Republicans ever do anything to help poor people?
Amazing they tricked so many working class whites into believing their bullshit
