That’s $100 stolen from every single American in the country
From every kid, from every grandma, from every person in hospital
$100 for him, $10 for his cronies, and costing us $10,000-$100,000 each.
Okay, but consider that 20% of those children and grandparents and hospitalized people may have voted for him. So actually its good that the country is getting looted, because a plutocrat enriching himself off the deluded and uneducated plebs is Karmic Justice.
Now the Liberal Party can kick back its heels and announce “You stupid idiots, you wouldn’t be suffering if you’d supported us.” And they’ll win in a landslide and take over the mechanisms for self-enrichment and brag about how they triumphed over fascism. Or maybe they won’t win, at which point, they can justify the misery of their constituents for another two years.
I mean…they quite literally didn’t on account of, y’know, they’re children
If they didn’t vote, that’s just as bad as voting for Trump.
Or so I’ve been told.
they piled downvotes on him because they knew he was right. because this is exactly how the DNC has been operating and we literally saw it happen.
stop ride-or-dieing for 🏳️🌈soft fascism🏳️🌈 they’ll drop your progressive movements the second that they have power to actually change or protect anyone
No, the down votes are because
MAGA voters will not have some sudden, simultaneous epiphany and correctly attribute their suffering (in fact, they will never learn).
Democrats might not have another go at it if they lose in 2026 (if elections even happen according to schedule), so inaction is inexcusable.
