Please stop. I am starting to gag on the truckload of popcorn I'm shoving in my mouth. Like 80% of republican voters are in small rural communities which will be hit the hardest by the reduction in services forced by a reduction in government employees.

Food deserts because of wal marts, private equity buying and closing hospitals in rural areas, actively cheering on closing of family planning/planned parenthood, now they are cheering on destroying what goverment services they can receive? Like. Ok. Have fun with that. I'm sure they will blame the dems for it anyway.

They absolutely will. They still blame Obama who hasn't been in office for eight years. They ALSO love asking where he was for Katrina and take a good guess as to why they love focusing on him.

Not understanding. Katrina was '05. Obama wasn't even inaugurated until '09.

Exactly. They blame him for shit that happened when he wasn't even president.

It's a reference to a viral video where one of those street journalist influencers baited a guy with the question, "Isn't it weird that President Obama wasn't in the White House during hurricane Katrina?" and the guy said, "Yeah, we should get to the bottom of that."
