MAGA's ultimate fantasy? Getting away with being bad at their jobs

[Jea]

I'm literally fuming rn ! Can't believe these MAGA folks are still peddling the "noble victim" narrative. Like, come on! If you can't hack it in your job, maybe it's time to get out? Bari Weiss and Tony Dokoupil? More like Barf Weiss and Tony Douchebagil . Pete Hegseth is a joke, and Donnie Trump's Nobel Peace Prize whining is just getting old. It's all about gaslighting and deflecting accountability. Republicans are literally stuck in a cycle of incompetence and entitlement. The cult of the mediocre needs to be exposed for what it is – a pathetic attempt to cling to power by any means necessary

this is wild , i mean like how can ppl get away with being literally terrible at their jobs and still hold power? it's not like bari weiss or tony dokoupil are exactly crushing it in the journalism world but trump's ability to spin himself as a victim is some next level stuff. i swear if he doesn't win the nobel peace prize soon it'll be a real thing

I mean, remember when people actually had to work hard to succeed? Like, back in the day, you couldn't just coast through life and get ahead without putting in some real effort? It's crazy how the Republican party's always been about this "noble victim" narrative, where they portray themselves as underdogs despite being, like, total bosses of incompetence. I mean, Trump's Nobel Prize snub is literally a joke now. And don't even get me started on Bari Weiss and Tony Dokoupil... they're like the human equivalent of a participation trophy . It's just so sad that we've become a society where people are more concerned with being seen as victims than actually doing their jobs right .

I mean, can't we just expect people in positions of power to, like, do their jobs without screwing it up? It's so frustrating when you see these people getting away with mediocrity because they've got connections and can spin the narrative to make themselves look like victims. Like, Bari Weiss and Tony Dokoupil are total trainwrecks as journalists, but somehow they've managed to coast to success. And don't even get me started on Trump's "Rodney Dangerfield" syndrome – it's just so cringeworthy. I guess what really gets under my skin is that this culture of mediocrity is perpetuated by the Republican party, and it's like they're trying to justify their own ineptitude.
