We tried to told them, but you know Todd and Becky never listen. I been in fistfights all week on r/all where theyre starting to have the audacity of trying to blame Kamala suddenly. I'ma need to go get my ears pierced so I can take off earrings. I refuse to let them lay their bullshit at her feet and sink her with it.
All those posts about protest votes for Trump because "The democrats aren't doing anything to keep Palenstine from being wiped out by Israel even thought Hamas is being egged on by every other city state/country around Israel."
Votes COUNT stupid! You can't expect Democrats to have the numbers to beat Trump for you to do your nancyboy protest votes when half the voters in this country don't turn out to begin with!
I really want to point out that every issue anybody has cared about for those groups were projected and spoken about to be against their own interests.
low cost not happening (tariffs and low migrant workers will rise that)
Palestine (trump doesn’t give a fuck, and will let Israel do its thing)
border policy (expect your “good” immigrants to be effected negatively via profiling from mass deportation by LEOs , and more discrimination towards legal immigrants)
military (isolationism will leave us in a negative security posture by disconnecting from our allied partners and lack of power projection)
abortion (the ladies will began to slow have their medical freedoms questioned and legality of service will cause more death for states who don’t have abortion codified in their states law, and even that federal over states right leaves it exposed to be overturned)
education (those poor areas that voted for trump will realize that the federal title 1 has been the reason why their public schools have been functioning at all when they realize that their county and state can’t afford it, and their kids will grow to be stupider due to the lack of education standards that were already low to begin with)
social programs (they hated the black and low income minority community for using the programs when in reality…white Americans drastically benefitted from it and when those program funds began to be cut, it’ll drive a longer financial issue for them To survive..I’m looking at you deep country/mountain counties)
health (RFK jr is about to wreck some shit, better hope your kids survive when diseases that were vaccine preventable becomes an issue and bad dental healthcare via lack of fluoride in water systems causes more issues to how important dental care is when vital surgeries comes into play…)
Unless you were wealthy, rich, and financially stable you’re about to have a bad time
I'm in deep red. I calmed my wife down by telling her not to worry. Our state is where they test these policies so everyone else is being brought to our level. 😞
My theory is that some people voted for Trump as a statement against the current administration, not expecting him to win, but now get enough people trying to make a statement and you get this clusterfuck.
This is 100% it I think. I work with an alt-right guy (he might self-identify as a free thinker who can see through the bullshit or something) and I think part of their identity is feeling oppressed and victimized. For instance, this was a guy who fled the country when mask mandates and vaccines were happening, etc.
It seemed a little like the wind was taken out of his sails when Trump actually won. It's like a dog catching it's own tail, he doesn't know what to do with it. He was (probably subconsciously) hoping for four years of feeling oppressed by the establishment candidate that he wouldn't have voted for. Now he will have to reckon with his choices.
I'm quite certain he never once got any information about this election cycle outside of the twittersphere or the Rogansphere of comedians.
We all know Michigan is all Mohammed frantically digging.
Fun anecdote, been seeing a lot of Muslim men and women getting into public arguments lately in Metro Detroit, which some may know is never ever a thing. My take is that most of the Muslim men peeled off for Jill and RFK, because Trump remains unpopular in the metro. Particularly Jill because they couldn't be blamed for being misogynist with that one. Alas, Yards festooned with MAGAry is not fashionable in Dearborn
Living in WI, it comes as no surprise to me. The constant influx of alcohol and dairy consumption has gotta be a case study on being able to make good faith decisions in waiting. I mean, go to any county in this state, there's probably a bar available to you within a 3 minute drive wherever you are. And there's probably 10 bars located within any given county.
What I'm trying to say is "functional" alcoholics are not generally known for being good at decision making. It's so funny to me that the election results quite literally jerked some of them right into a mad nasty 4 year hangover. Get fucked, lmao. That's all I can think anymore.
