thanks to the "independent" voters who keep helping the effort to get us into this situation and then turning around to regret it.

Many of those same people who were rightly unimpressed with trump 2017-20 and voted for Biden then turned on Biden who had actually righted the ship. I wonder what it's like to lack the ability to engage in adult reasoning.
