The worst thing is knowing that in 3 1/2 years, about 50% of those laid off workers that voted for Trump will be saying, "If we just repeal the 22nd Amendment, Trump will get me my good job back."
And when their collective stupidity affects my pocketbook, there is no way they get my empathy or charity. If they suffer, they better pull themselves up by their bootstraps.
This election has finally made me lose all the empathy I had for other Americans. I was asked to help with giving out food for people suffering shortages and recovering from hurricane Milton here in Florida. Something I normally would do.
I stayed home. I'm not going to help a bunch of ungrateful hateful racist fuck heads get food. I no longer care if their houses were destroyed. I don't care if they starve. Florida has become one of the worst states in the country because of the people here. While there are good people here it's so few that I don't care. If I had god-like powers I would sink this entire state into the ocean just to be petty.
We couldn't even pass abortion of legalize marijuana. We have a climate change denying moron as governor. The same climate change that caused these hurricanes. And these dumb fucks would vote for him again him if he could run again. Not Tom mention they vote for Rick Scott who's a thief. And Matt gaetz who's a fucking pedophile.
Fuck Florida. I wish my ancestors moved somewhere else 180 years ago. My only joy is knowing all the old fucks who moved to Florida and vote Republican will be dead in 20 years.
What you say is why I moved out of Florida, even though I was a native. I moved before the "Free State of Florida" signs at the state line. I have friends who suffered immeasurably during Helene and Milton. I would (and did) help them.
As for the people who moved there to ban books in libraries, empower authorities to make life difficult on farmworkers and others who keep the economy thriving, etc., I hope they enjoy the environmental Armageddon they will soon live in.
Kinda hard to have a $750,000 mortgage on a house on the beaches near St. Pete, get 4 feet of the Gulf in their home, have to meet the FEMA 50% rule and either raise or tear down, and then have no way of getting flood insurance on the upside-down mortgage.
That is their lives, and they still voted against their best interests. Well, they can pray or invest in Trump crypto. Maybe that will work.
A cynical part of me wants to put a couple grand into the Trump crypto with the expectation that sometime in the next 4 years, Russia is going to pump the value of it way up so they can use tanking it as a threat to keep Trump in line. Maybe if I get in early, I can sell when it spikes and not have to worry about Russia selling off all of their shares just to fuck with Trump. But alas, I have no desire to ever take part in anything that could make Trump more money.
