tweet: Republicans are masters of what should be forever known as "the botch and blame."

Middle Age Riot@middleageriot·6m
Republicans are masters of what should be forever known as "the botch and blame."

Example: botch distribution of the COVID vaccine and blame it on Joe Biden.





-----
This tweet is spot on - rethugs botched the CV-19 response and now they are blaming Biden.

Just one of many obvious examples. Touting their Trickle Down theory still from their dog-eared playbook. Over and over again decade after decade.

Botch and Blame. The Big Lie. Good messaging finally as we move forward to fix what they broke.
Thanks for posting. Good ideas and easy to remember catch phrases have a tendency to spread.

Shift the responsibility onto the States; Shaft - deny them the funds the Federal programs required.
