Yes. They are happier.

They aren’t interested in making life better for anyone. They want it shittier for everyone else rather than actually improve themselves so they don’t have exert any effort or make sacrifices. The suffering they do get from trump’s policies is unexpected or “worth it” to fuck over everyone else.

No, they're not. Sure there's a core audience of people who just want others to suffer, but Trump's approval rating is dropping. There are plenty of people out there that feel cheated.

Not that that'll change anything.

i agree. the only people that are happy are the ones that can say so because they are anonymous online, so it just seems like a lot. But if you walk around your cities and towns, you will notice a huge decline in trump flags and signs being up on houses now.

I am a construction worker in Texas. You are mistaken. I do agree that some light is starting to show through the cracks for people inclined to question what they have been told. There are plenty that are enthused about the actions being taken while simultaneously bitching about the state of the economy. Then they get mad and turtle up the moment you challenge their world view. I'm so tired of trying to rationalize people out of a position they didn't rationalize themself into.
