We hear people use the statement all the time as a way to ridicule the politicians doing the ‘“playing”. Isn’t that what politicians are supposed to do...say things and do things their “base” wants to hear and see done?
Let’s look at some of the things a politician might say to energize their base while pissing off the opposing party.
Republicans:
“It’s time to shut the border down, build a wall and stop the invasion.”
“It’s time to lower taxes, get people off welfare and working to support themselves.”
“It’s time to enforce our laws and treat criminals like the trash they are.”
“It’s time to deregulate industry so businesses can’t get more done and employ more people.”
“It’s time to improve healthcare for ALL.”
“We must keep degenerate men out of women’s restrooms.”
Democrats:
“It’s time to change policy and make life easier here for illegal aliens.”
“It’s time to take more from our hardest working most productive and give it to those who have made bad decisions in life.”
“It’s time to decriminalize certain activities to make life easier for those having trouble following the rules.”
“It’s time to regulate businesses and discourage them from expanding.”
“It’s time to improve healthcare for the lowest one third.”
“Equal rights, a man in a dress should have the right to shit next to little girls.”
I am not making any of this up, these are the things said by politicians that would energize their base. This makes it pretty simple to create a profile for exactly what type of person is part of which base...huh?
