The nature of propaganda is to manufacture a non existent problem and then pretend that you solved it.

This.

The Trump Administration seeks to be consistent. It makes it easier to have the same approach for priorities as they use for their people!

I saw this play out with gas stoves.


Is this your attempt at deflection? D+

Start stop has never hurt anyone. "It's annoying" doesn't make the cut for me.

I care a lot more about not getting poisoned by PFAS in my drinking water, or getting sick from listeria or e. coli from food products. I care about dangerous consumer products that actually harm people. I care about not being bankrupted by a medical emergency or the elderly not ending up homeless because they can't support themselves.

Rearrange your priorities to the things that ACTUALLY cause harm and get back to us on the "annoying" when you've done some actual good in the world.


"Why does the Trump administration pick dumb and petty things to make their top priorities?"

Because almost everything is about Trump. It's not about policies, it's about how he feels about it. He hates low flow shower heads and toilets because they weren't great in the '90's, so now that he has the power to do something about it, he's going to do something. That's literally it. He's like a toddler that needs appeasing.

Distraction from the fact that they have no major plan to improve healthcare in America.

He's pushing back on the power of the federal government through the administrative state. The power of unelected bureaucrats needs to be clipped... badly.

I want to see more of him burning things to the ground. This federal nanny state is outta control. It's killing any agility or movement we had on anything. Take their power away, defund them, end their jobs, and close down their politburos.

We don't need hundreds of departments and agencies ruling every aspect of our lives.


Wow dude. I couldn't imagine going through live parroting the crap that comes out of bloviating Steve Bannon's mouth.

You saw WHAT play out? Fact Check: There was never actually any proposed ban on gas stoves despite what Republicans falsely claimed. But nonetheless, the Republicans passed a ban on banning gas stoves even though there was no such ban in the works.

Republican facepalm. And you're a gullible fool for unquestioningly and unblinkingly believing every single thing the Republicans say.

Because they are dumb and petty and so are the people who voted for them.

It’s an effort to confuse and gaslight, to create cognitive dissonance.

Distraction from what's really going on is definitely a big piece of it. But the other big piece is that Trump is an entertainer at heart and wants to create some daily "drama" like he did on his 10+-year reality TV show--dumb policies like changing the name of Gulf of Mexico to Gulf of America gets everyone riled up. It would be a very boring reality TV show indeed if all Trump did was govern like a normal president.
