This is actually sad
If he cared he would be either raping you or getting you deported. Sucks he doesn’t care I guess.
That was your line in the sand? Fuck you, lady.
Did you watch the video?
I mean, yeah - it’s only 28 seconds long. Not like there’s a lot of deep shit in there. She’s pissed off because Trump doesn’t care about Americans who are in financial stress.
Like, let’s put aside the fact that you have to be the stupidest motherfucker on the planet to not realize that shit before now. The fact that that was her line in the sand for finally saying: “no - I don’t like this guy” is damning as hell on her character. It’s not the misogyny or rape. It’s not the pedophilia. It’s not the decades of fraud. It’s not even his moral bankruptcy. Nope - it’s “he doesn’t care about ME!!!”
Fuck that lady.
the fact that you have to be the stupidest motherfucker on the planet
That is not a fact. They’re not stupid. They were lied to, just like you were when Joe Biden made extravagant promises and then prioritized a genocide over helping your family eat.
It also doesn’t help your case that, until COVID, cost of living was significantly less expensive in the US during Donald’s first term. COL was never, ever anything but spiraling out of control under Joe Biden, and Harris (evidently a stupid motherfucker) publicly confirmed she wouldn’t have done anything differently.
These people had a reason to think the economy would be better under Donald because they actually experienced it. Even with the grift and Donald being such a slimy son of a bitch.
You’re putting words in their mouth here.
I love that you, who previously said “Did you watch this video,” have now made this response, which is absolutely, positively deserving of the question.
Ahem…
Did you read the comment?
If you get ‘lied to’ from a proven con artist and grifter, you’re a sucker.
You can maybe make this comparison in 2018. Ut doesn’t hold after Trump’s first presidency, though. This is a “fool me twice” situation.
That is not a fact. They’re not stupid
Incorrect. They are incredibly stupid people.
just like you were when Joe Biden made extravagant promises and then prioritized a genocide over helping your family eat.
Bro, what the fuck are you smoking? Do you think that I’m a fucking Biden stan? What in the world gave you that idea? You should probably stop sniffing your own farts and making up your own reality.
These people had a reason to think the economy would be better under Donald because they actually experienced it. Even with the grift and Donald being such a slimy son of a bitch.
Yes. The reason was that they were stupid as hell. Also, the vast majority of them are also racist pieces of shit. So that helps.
You’re putting words in their mouth here.
You’re trying to polish a turd, for some reason. No idea why you would have the desire to do such a thing. But these people are straight up trash with zero redeeming qualities.
It also doesn’t help your case that, until COVID, cost of living was significantly less expensive in the US during Donald’s first term.
Wasn’t Donald the guy in charge during COVID?
You shouldn’t expect someone to care about you just because you give them power. You should give power to people who care about you!
You should give power to people who care about you!
That only leaves the Green Party, though.
Hey look, proof that some of those on the “left” can be every bit as stupid as MAGA.
Mind-blowing how people have forgotten the time before the ACA, which limited insurer excess profit and forbid denial due to pre-existing conditions
Yeah, now it’s just so expensive I avoid treatment altogether and therefore can’t get denied.
It for sure sucks now! Lieberman killed the public option and things have only gotten worse since then as we haven’t taken on the usury of insurance, PE hospitals, and pharma, but the ACA was a step in the right direction that’s been continuously sabotaged ever since it was implemented
but the ACA was a step in the right direction
The ACA was a turd with some rhetorical polish. That’s it, and anyone seeking health care in this country knows it.
Fucking MAGA in disguise.
Still waiting on your dear leader’s ‘concept of plan’.
Pretty lazy response.
I’m not a Donald supporter. I’m just also unwilling to pretend that a regressive health care system is a good thing because it came from the Blue MAGA instead of the Red MAGA, especially considering Obama could have (and should have) done better. .
All of those things still exist now, provided you can’t afford to be price gouged, which is the vast majority of Americans.
And Obama could have given us a truly universal system
And Obama could have given us a truly universal system
Glad to see you weren’t paying attention.
To be fair, they weren’t looking.
Putin party 😂
Don’t say that on the late stage capitalism sub, the douchebag mod will ban you
So I shouldn’t vote for anyone. Got it.
Honestly if that’s what your takeaway is, the world would be a better place if you didn’t vote. Moron.
Validation feels good.
You really think that person votes, pip?
“nobody who disagrees with me votes!!!”
Get new material bootlicker
Do you really think i don’t agree with that person?
Eh, fair enough
I’m sad to say, but I’m afraid they do. We know the stats.
There’s no hiding from the fact that the two party system isn’t doing democracy and fair leadership any services though.
So he’s not important to listen to for the DNC? Cool, surely you don’t blame him for when the DNC supports Diet Trump in 2028.
Diet Trump
Just how fucking blind and stupid can you possibly be? Are you even REMOTELY paying attention what’s going on?
Yes. That’s why they support Diet Trump for president.
Every thread where there’s a shred of hope these people come in to desperately scream “Dems bad too! Dems bad too!”
Almost like they have a goal in mind.
If at this point you’re looking at everything and still go, yep, that’s competent leadership doing exactly what I wanted, then I don’t see how there is any way back to reality for them.
Yeah, I don’t think anyone in this administration is competent.
It’s jarring how bad it is.
Let me guess- because a politicians needs to be paid, that means they can’t possibly care.
It’s simple math.
If they’re representing thousands of people, each with conflicting needs, there’s no way they can care for all of them.
Donald ran on affordability.
It was no more stupid for people to vote for the affordability candidate (especially after four years of rampant COL increases under Joe Biden) than it was for people to vote for Biden on his unfounded promises to lower inflation and eliminate student loan debt. This person has every right to be angry.
Lots of people vote based on words and nothing else. Democrats are no different than this person, and if the roles were reversed, you’d be arguing that Harris was somehow magically powerless to help, because you’d be in exactly the same position. (Though the last two years of Donald’s presidency have proven that power was never a problem.)
Waaaaaah! But Joe Biden! Obama! Waaaaaaah!!1!
Whatever helps you sleep at night bro. The signs were on the wall and you missed it.
Sad that they’re such assholes who lack empathy that they are only regretting their vote now that it’s hurting them.
They didn’t and probably still don’t care about the grift, the racism, the rape, the dictatorship, et cetera.
They’re garbage people and I don’t feel bad for them. If they turn away from all the other stuff - then I’ll have some empathy.
I only pity their children
IMO they haven’t been hurt enough. I want farms lost. Jobs lost, I want them broken
And then what? What does this accomplish? What’s the end goal beyond more suffering and radicalization?
- The sense of satisfaction that these assholes get what they voted for. Remember, these are the same people who do not give a shit about the suffering of other people, like woman, queers, etc.
- Maybe, that suffering will let them finally open their eyes, see beyond propaganda, and reduce the cult following.
The person I responded to said they want these people broken. Jobs lost, farms confiscated, essentially homeless and ruined.
77 million people voted for Trump. Roughly a third of voting age individuals. What exactly are you suggesting? Do we jail them all? Where do we put them in that case? Or should they just be executed? Concentration camps? Slave labor?
What do you suggest we do with a third of the country who have no jobs, no prospects, utterly broken, and with nothing to lose?
I don’t like these folks, but I don’t think you or the previous person I replied to are thinking through the actual ramifications here. Economically this would ruin the country even in a good economy (which this is decidedly not). This would lead to civil war as the best case scenario, and any other scenario would be either insane levels of human rights violations or downright genocide.
And on top of all that, it wouldn’t actually solve any of the issues our country is facing in the near term. It would do nothing about the ringleaders, the manipulation, the corruption. Punishing idiots and assholes is vengeance of a kind, but it’s not a solution and won’t fix anything.
All of those are insane suggestions I haven’t seen anyone make but you.
If a Trump supporter is hurt by his policies, the worst I’m going to is have zero sympathy, offer zero support and refuse to let them think anyone is at fault but themselves.
If there were some group that wasn’t the very group that’s hurting them to buy up their lands and resources. Then you might have a point. Then it would be extremely fitting for them to have to work on what used to be their lands that they lost through mismanagement. But that’s not what would happen. Wealthy oligarchs will buy at the land for pennies on the dollar put them out of work and not create a job in its place. We will all suffer collectively just so one very uninformed dumb person suffers as well. That’s a very conservative mindset
Bingo. There’s no upside here. Either very stupid, selfish millionaire bigots own the farms, or somewhat less stupid billionaire bigots own them.
The thing is that most other people, many of whom didn’t vote for the toddler in chief, will share in that fate.
It’s that collateral damage you’re willing to accept just for the commupance?
America is the land of individuals, and decades of propaganda have cemented that, unfortunately.
To them, it’s only a “land of individuals” until they want to forced their bigoted policies down our throats or when they specifically need help.
Im already pretty much ruined, and I didn’t vote for this asshole. I hope that whomever did is killed by his antics. I want them to be on the receiving end of ICE. I hope they find their way into a concentration camp.
This is very old news. It’s also a cut that is taken out of context. I still think he’s wrong but do better.
We need to embrace these people, despite their mistakes. They’re misled by our media and by their upbringing. They mistrust society, education, etc., because of the very people they vote for. It’s a feedback loop.
We need to allow the leopard faces to heal up so they can see and learn from their mistakes. If that’s not possible, then fine, but everyone should be able to make amends or we are a poor society.
I’ve said it for years, you vote for Trump for one of three reasons (usually multiple of the three listed but at the very least one).
-
you are a brainwashed cultist.
-
you are a bigot.
-
you are greedy.
I haven’t seen a single Trump voter that doesn’t fulfill at least one of these requirements, and I still feel nothing for them. If I could transpose all the suffering they’ve caused to others onto them, I’d do it in a heartbeat.
I read a comment from a dude deep in MAGA territoryand he said the rest of us simply don’t know how isolated they are news wise, everybody thinks the same and FOX et al play on TV and radio 24/7 in restaruants, bars, at work, at home, like they are surrounded by literally nothing but hard core propaganda.
I don’t live there, but I’m willing to believe that at face value. Shit, USA/CIA has known how effective political propaganda is since they cut their teeth in Central and South America (they did it in lots of other places too).
The sophistication of the modern propaganda apparatus would make Goebbels blush.
People have never had access to more sources of information - they choose ignorance.

There’s a lot of debate over how we “ought” to view these people. Man, feel how you wanna feel. You have a right to be angry with them. Fuck, they are stupid assholes. You can also feel pity and have a desire to find common ground. It’s normal to celebrate a redemption arc.
But one thing you can’t argue, is that the signs weren’t there. That those folks had no way of knowing that Trump was a grifting, lying, narcissistic, rapist idiot criminal. All these dumb fucks on tv acting surprised, not doing themselves any favors right now. Look inward, realize you’re an imbecile or a bigoted shitheel for buying into his bullshit, and then start over. Get on tv and say “holy fuck I am a bad person” and that redemption arc gets realistic.
Evangelical Christians looking at the Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization decision: “Worth it!”
😡
Raise your hand if you saw this shit coming and feel no remorse for “I was duped” crowd 🙋♂️
Of course he fucking does not care. He is way to busy milking as much money as he can get out of the presidency while distracting or even getting immunities for the crimes he committed. Why should he care for people who were dumb enough to vote for him?
How could they not know he didn’t care?
He essentially said so on numerous occasions, but I guess that went through the same “He means what he says but everything he says requires interpretation” mind machine.
But as usual:
“I voted for him, and he’s the one who’s doing this,” Crystal Minton told The New York Timesin an article published Monday. “I thought he was going to do good things. He’s not hurting the people he needs to be hurting.” (2019)
They only care when it hurts themselves. They’re fine with hurting everyone else.
Exactly that’s why im over this country. Like so what if the people finally realize oh wow yeah trump really is a lying piece of shit who raped children? They’re still gonna turn around and vote for Vance instead when Vance says "unlike trump, I really care about your personal finances!’
Like we can expose trump all day and everyone vould actually agree with us for once, and it still wouldn’t fix the problem of these extrump voters still really wanting a fascist dictator who will round up minorities but maybe he won’t be so corrupt.
idc how progressive you and your friends are, there’s more of them than us. It’s not our country anymore.
That ain’t true and you know it. This is basically psyop posting. Maybe they’re not all baby communists yet but 70% of the fucking country hates this clown.
SEVENTY percent.
Don’t ever let the slavers who made the voting system to exclude anyone but affluent slave owners tell you they outnumber you.
Exactly. They still want a piece of shit to be president, they just want him to be a piece of shit to everyone they disagree with.
A complete shock.
LOL
No shit, lady.
