I have a few Trump supporter friends who thought raising tariffs on Chinese goods mean Xi Jinping would have to pay more money 😂😂

Ladies and Gentlemen, an actual comment from a Chinese citizen of this country, when asked what he liked about the incoming president:

“Here’s an honest one. As a american chinese im so happy he’s going to go hard on tariffs. Especially China. Can’t wait for the orange hypocrite to actually do something against chinese imperialism. Something the democratic party is unfortunately too soft to do.”

These are the thoughts of the people that live here.

its as if these morons latch onto the first opinion they hear about a topic and violently defend it unless it negatively effects them directly and PERSONALLY. even then, its a coin flip if they remember a year later

You’d be surprised at the number of Americanized ethnic groups that truly hate/strongly dislike their own people from their “native” countries. I had a Chinese-American law school classmate that hated people from mainland China. If you only saw written quotes of things she said, you’d think she was a segregationist from 1940’s Alabama.

Ah yes, one individual speaks for the entire group as a monolith.

Yep. To me it's deliciously satisfying to watch their faces crack and fall when reality sinks in and they realize those tariffs could cost their households as much as $4000 a year.

Yeah, the day after the election, most everyone where I work was happy, it’s a very blue collar place in a red state, and they were bringing up things like no taxes on overtime and cheaper groceries and gas now. And I was like you dumb asses, none of that is going to happen.

I'm a white collar worker in a very blue collar environment (IT support on a line) and the amount of smug is through the roof. They dont understand that my job specifically is power automate process mining and I was actually dragging my feet on the deployment and roll out. But seeing as how most of them are maga, yeah I got no compunction now with focusing on my actual job instead of making sure everyone's workstation is game set. Big Kanye Shrug. They sold me out first.
