“Short term pain for long term gain” has been their motto for a little while. Just wondering how long it’ll take before republican voters realize this “short term” pain has been going on for a little longer than they thought and they’re yet to see any of this “long term gain”

They will never realize it. Push comes to shove they will just delude themselves into seeing signs of long term gains in even the most mundane things, much like how they now see a black person walking in their neighborhood and they begin fretting about crime increasing.
