    I love how the Republicans went grasping for some dumb criticism and all of the MAGA people immediately lapped it up and started repeating it

    The vice president hasn't done much of anything since the office was invented. John Adams called it "the most insignificant office that ever the invention of man contrived or his imagination conceived."

    I'm sure you guys really remember that Dan Quayle agenda, or the amazing policy coups of Mike Pence. In fact the only vice president I can think of who has ever had a heavy hand on policy is probably Dick Cheney, and that's because George Bush basically abdicated responsibility to him.

    but keep shaking your fist and shrilly shreiking "she already had four years!" as if Harris was somehow setting policy during the Biden administration, or as if every MAGA asshole wouldn't have gone apoplectic if she had. Dipshits.

    I'm sorry it upset you so much. There's a tradition here of using exclamation points to praise a president (or candidate in this case) over the performance of the economy. It's done to get a rise out of the opposition. Clearly, with you, mission accomplished.

    Also, while no one knows if Harris will be able to keep things going as well as they have been, it's a certainty that Trump's policies, if implemented in full, will crash the economy. Do you want high tariffs and mass deportations? If so, vote for Trump.
