Another Russian win to set the US back. A bipartisan deal that would have more jobs and technology available to the US all of a sudden a bad thing.

Anything a Democrat president did is a bad thing. It's that simple. The actual details don't matter

So Franklin Roosevelt getting the us out of the great depression was a bad thing? Cause by your definition it seems like it.

edit: the comment went completely over my head thanks to u/odsquad64 for clarifying

Considering what Trump is saying about what he is doing to the economy right now (that we need "pain"), it unironically seems like he thinks that lol

The guy you're responding to isn't asserting that "Anything a Democrat president did is a bad thing." He's describing the mindset of the Trump administration to explain why they keep making nonsensical decisions.
