Oh look, he’s doing exactly what he said he’d do. He advertised his intentions but stupid people didn’t pay attention. My relationship with my mother ended because she voted for him again. Whoops, you voted to hurt yourself.
my standard is a person is allowed to vote for DJT exactly one time and receive grace. if you voted for him in 2016 i can see the possibility that you didn't grow up familiar with american greed corruption, and propaganda. i have a beloved friend who voted for him the first time she ever voted in this country because Hillary Clinton read to her as the corrupt authoritarian making populist promises and DJT the earnest well meaning media personality who works for the people. after he took office and she saw that he had tricked her, she started listening to different groups of Americans differently and never went along with him again.
everyone elso who continues to go along with him? there's no excuse. he's shown you over and over who he really is. he killed half a million americans mismanaging the pandemic. now he's disrupting our food supply lines to kill half a million more through starvation. you're deluding yourself if you don't think he'll kill another half million at least in his death camps. this is not a joke. this is not a game.
Relationships like that are ending all over the US. It's insane just how much damage they've all done to their own families.
My own family members I've cut off are still deluding themselves into thinking Trump is just a republican version of Obama.
I suspect many of them are racist at this stage.
WTAF.
I find it really wild when the people running around talking about "TDS" are the ones that all lost their minds over Obama calmly and rationally doing normal things as a President. The very same ones usually spent a lot of the 90s with the black helicopter bunch and they were quite sure, apropos of zero evidence, that Reno/Clinton was going to kick in their doors and take all their GUNZ and put them into FEMA death camps.
And, spoiler alert, after two terms each of Clinton and Obama, they still have all their gunz and Obama didn't even "fundamentally change America" into some kind of Muslim and/or Socialist country because of Obama's anti-colonialism or terrorist fist jabs or whatever. 🤣
These are some of the very same dickheads that are cheering on things like Alligator Auschwitz, by the way. Irony is dead.
I still can't believe the Dems lost to the dumbest freaking idiots alive. What a clown show.
Leading up to the election, they really could not make a single politically wise decision to save their lives. They doubled down on out of touch rich people as their base, and are only tripling down now. Despite left wing politicians doing well while centrists languished, they think that a more feudal future where the poors have died or can't vote will save them. They're doing everything they can to prevent left wing opposition from existing so people can only choose politicians who openly don't represent them.
It was like watching a dude clutch dump a Mustang and shatter the transmission, thus forfeiting the circuit race to this
