Like I say, the people that support him point to things like this and ignore all of the many many criticisms of him. He probably took the money anyway, a populist only needs to say they’re turning down money, it gets some headlines that supporters will link to those and it doesn’t matter if it actually happens.
This is just how populism works. You’re upset when your guy gets called out for bullshit populism while at the same time thinking some other guy is being bullshit when they do bullshit populism. Even when it’s the same action. Populism is all about increasing the popularity of the person, while ignoring policies. It’s just “my guy good, other guy bad.”
@SpaceCowboy@ChickenLadyLovesLife I understand completely what you’re saying. He’s still an asshole with the stupidiest maggots ignoring his crimes. Their asshole ignoring democratic laws, is a pedo, hates women, and loves brutal dicts (thanks, miller and vought).
No, like turning down a pay check:
