Basically claiming he'll fix anything. Standard lib lies.

People who support capitalism are liberals. Republicans and Democrats are both libs and it says a lot about American politics that people consider them different at all.

The future Turnip would bring about is nothing like the future self-proclaimed liberals want.

You are aware he literally had already been president and governed like a slightly less conservative version of Biden, yes?

Not all liberals are the same, man

Some support the monarchy (eg. UK), some had them beheaded (eg. France)

In this case, Trump represents the "small" business, or petit bourgeois folks, but more importantly, the more 'dirty'-large capitalists like the oil-funded Koch brothers, who are more clearly connected to capitalist exploitation, both in the Global North and South

In a sense, they are propretarians and thus more closer to the dream/nightmare of classical liberalism come true

On the other, Biden/Kamala Harris represents labor aristocrats and professional manager classes (specialized stewards of capital), but more importantly, the more formal and neat looking large capitalists like Bill Gates or Mark Cuban, who finance and lend money behind closed doors capitalist exploitation, both in the Global North and South

In a sense, they are neoliberals with a barely-veiled socdem face

Ehh, I doubt they would care enough to know to be displeased
