I hope they'll remember that at the mid-terms and vote accordingly

Voters and consumers everywhere have such short attention spans.

No no....it's not memory issues. It's the fact that they play team sports with politics.

"OOOOOHHH!!!!! I'M SO MAD AT THE PEOPLE I VOTED FOR!!!"

Then the next election comes, and that same politician they've been mad at for years is up for reelection.

"OOOOHHH!!!!! I'M STILL MAD AT YOU.......but the other guy represents the other party, which as we all know are controlled by the lizard people, who only want to kill us all. I better vote for my time and trusted politician who I voted for before, which aligns with my beliefs....."

Two weeks later....

"OOOOOHHHH I'M SO MAD AT THE PEOPLE I VOTED FOR!!!"

AAAAAAND repeat for the rest of their lives.

Wow, can the Tech-Bros bridge the Democrats-Republican-Divide in US? Everyone hates these Uberrich oligarchs (how we call them in Germany „way-too-rich“)
