    Their struggle isn’t shared thou. Trump supporters are not a monolith, they are composed of a diverse number of groups with different and often competing interests.

      It is absolutely shared in the sense that any hardship they face is solely because they voted for Donald Trump. We ran into this last night with my MIL. She thought both the employees at Lowe’s and Panda Express were “harassing” her because they somehow knew she was a Trump supporter.

      My wife said that people were just having a hard time right now to avoid the conflict and her mom responded that “Oh that must be Trump’s fault too” and stormed out of her husband’s birthday party lmao.

      Trailer Park burnt down? Must be someone who hates that they love Trump. Economy crashing? Must be because they just hate Trump.

      It’s so fucking annoying.

      Yea they all deal with the same rise in prices, the same lack of services from their government… the same treatment from not racist members of society.

      Ok sure the corpos and whatnot who put him in place dont share the struggles, but all the civies who voted for him sure do.

        Surely, middle income households are not as effected as those earning minimum wage, just like high income households does not face the same challenges as those of middle income. Yes, all things become more expensive, but only some have to worry about basic sustenance.
