😱 who could have ever guessed!??
Police union outraged that candidate they supported did the thing the candidate said he would do.
You want cheap eggs or not? These are the people we need to storm the eggeries and bring back egg liberties for all!
Narrator: "The eggs did not get cheaper."
I don't think there was a single executive order that targeted grocery prices. I mean, Trump could have pushed out a nothingburger EO that targeted egg prices or something.
But nope. All alt-right stuff so far.
Well didn't he say, shortly after being elected that he can't actually lower the price of food
Yup. This wasn't even something where he was ambiguous. He's been saying the entire campaign he'd pardon them.
Soft leopard, warm leopard,
Tummy full of face;
Vicious leopard, Nazi leopard
Won the presidential race
Brilliant.
Did they expect literally anything else? He's been saying since 2021 that they are basically political prisoners who have done nothing wrong. When you give the keys to the jail to the inmates, don't be surprised when they let themselves out.
The sheer weight of the stupidity involved is astounding....
Then do something cool about it, you fuckin cowards
Translation: "No fair! We needed those guys un-pardoned so we can look busy on slow days!"
The single worst election promise from Trump, is complete immunity for Police, presumably just for murder, but then why not just murder those who complain about extortion, or brutality for protesting Trump policies.
