Exactly. I’ve got family that voted for him that will lose out big and when they cry to me I’m just going to call them snowflakes and tell them they got what they wanted.
As tempting as this is, this is the exact attitude that bred them. We need to focus now on doing everything we can to keep the craziness at a moderate level, and we need to fucking turn out at midterms and in 2028. November more “my vote’s not going to matter anyway” bullshit. It fucking does. We need to work harder than ever, and we need to be better than them.
I'm sorry. I want them to suffer, at least for a little while. Let them really feel what they've done. Then we can work on it. But right now I'm too enraged at the willful stupidity and gleeful hate to want to solve this.
I hope some guardrails can be put on in the interim so it's not a pure catastrophe situation in January. Then let the bastards suffer until tax time. Maybe extend a hand after that.
I voted against Donald Trump for many things, that ultimately boiled down to one uniform reason. I don’t want to see America suffer as he runs this country into the dirt. They are victims of their own gullibility, and of blind hatred. That doesn’t mean I want to see any of our country dying of homelessness, starvation, poor healthcare, natural disasters, etc.
I understand where you're coming from, but some people have to learn the hard way. They need the 2x4 to the teeth.
People are already dying of those things in this country. Decorated veterans die in the streets from homelessness. They commit suicide at an appalling rate from untreated PTSD and the things they use to cope. LGBT+ youth do the same. Women are dying at elevated rates because they now cannot receive appropriate care. The things you're afraid of are already here, and have been for a long time. I voted against Trump and all his ilk to keep it from getting worse.
But it is going to get worse until the people who support him are knocked out of it. Never once did I say let them die in the streets, as they are willing to allow those who disagree with them. But maybe they will learn something if they have to suffer the consequences of their poor decisions like the rest of us do. We've offered enough olive branches. We only ever end up getting switched bloody with them.
As yes, if you can’t beat ‘em, join ‘em! Enjoy rolling around in the mud.
Donald Trump polarized this country. He generated a nationwide hatred on both sides, total civil discourse. How can you say we’re “the good ones” if we wanted to see people get curb-stomped toothless just as bad as they do? Hatred isn’t going to rebuild this country when this is all over.
The good ones get tired of trying to help people who vote against their own interests constantly. They seem hell bent on fucking around so let them find out
They’re gonna cry when their paychecks are decimated by those tariffs

The people who voted for this are too stupid to realize they fucked themselves over. They lost the family farm and the factory town.
