Republicans are such fucking hypocrites

Yeah it was suddenly diffrent when former dear leader might get helped by it.. Republicans in Congress still fought it though.. They blocked the bills in Congress so Obama had to sign the EO.

Nancy at least came around in her later years and saw the Republicans for what they are..
