The bailouts were bullshit, but unless I’m mistaken, all of that money was paid back with interest.
Also, I’m pretty sure Bush was the one who passed at least one of them.
This shit is so disingenuous. To even suggest that the things you listed are even on the same scale of the insanity being perpetrated by the Trump Administration is laughable
You also conveniently ignored over half of their bullet points
Sure, but literally any competent policy will pay for itself directly or indirectly. There’s a clear opportunity cost for using government money to pay rich corporations rather than common people, especially in a time where regular people very much needed that money.
I’m pretty sure Bush was the one who passed at least one of them.
Bush bailed out the banks, but it was Obama who bailed out the auto industry. Now these were in the tens of billions range rather than hundreds of billions, but it’s worth noting that the government actually lost money on those.

Trump’s two worst sins, helping Saudi Arabia bomb/starve Yemen and helping Israel genocide Gaza, are both shared with Democratic presidents. The difference in terms of being an evil piece of shit is really not as large as you seem to imply, or you could start by addressing my counterarguments. Trump is definitely trashier, but, like, K; people don’t care whether the current piece of shit future gender-neutral public urinal who bombed their wedding grabs girls by the pussy or not.

Okay? They made a bunch of claims and I disproved some of them. I never pretended to be addressing all their bullet points, nor do I need to do that for my point to stand. The half I ignored was also pretty much a rounding error compared to the shit all three pieces of shit did in their terms, morally speaking.
Seriously, these people with their fucking blinders on that conveniently just forget everything the Democrats have done when someone mentions that Republicans also do horrible shit.
Cannot stand these reactionaries and how they just lose all perspective except what’s right in front of their noses. Literally being led around like donkeys with a carrot on a stick.
What in the actual fuck do you think the Great Recession bailouts were?
Ah yes the deporter in chief did none of that.
Yeah Obama started a war with Yemen because Saudi Arabia told him to instead.
No he just blew up Libyan everything so… I’ll let you make a guess.
Stop coping.
