To the people whose Medicare coverage is in jeopardy.
To the people who think Palestinians and Israelis deserve our support negotiating a settlement that lets that war torn region try to move forward with dignity, not as another real estate deal that benefits the Trump Organization.
To those who are worried that Elon Musk's best interests aren't the American people's best interests.
To federal employees who voted for Trump and are now threatened with losing their jobs.
To people who think cutting USAID will make volatile regions of the world more dangerous and lead to human tragedies, and not coincidentally, more illegal immigration as people flee danger.
To the people who are shocked that funding to conservative religious groups that do good works at home and abroad is on the chopping block.
To people who believe in public education and public health and worry about a future where they are privatized for profit.

Dysfunctional economy will be arriving in 4, 3, 2…

Really annoying to have old friends more interested in listening to random AI-driven conspiracy videos and breathless fake news than in asking themselves whether their friends or family might be trying to tell them the actual truth.

I mean, I’ve been semi-supporting an old friend for 4 years now, but she is just convinced to believe in a lot of pseudoscience and fear-mongering. Not a trumper by any means, but swayed into absorbing thousands of hours of you-tube b.s. that exists in the no-mans land of vaccine rejection, both-sides-ism, survivalism, and fear, 24x7 fear.

It never bothered her that these snake oil salesmen were picking her empty-pockets while putting a wedge between her and I.

Think about that next Christmas as they're innocently opening their gifts, unaware of how the adults have mindlessly given away 225 years of hard fought societal growth to the absolute control of a sociopathic felon and a megalomaniac.

An appropriate gift would be a book selection: 1984, Fahrenheit 451, Brave New World, The Handmaid's Tale, and any book by Robert Heinlein. To give them a gift which describes Felon47's thinking, try the Green Eggs and Ham coloring book.

I give it till some time in summer, when all the people who harvested crops are in cages and so produce aisles are either empty or full of $10 oranges and $15 bags of cherries. After several more airline issues. When Medicare and SS are in grave danger, or gone. It’s going to get far, far worse than it is now before it starts getting better. Remember also that they are not being told about the firings or the financial stuff—FOX and their other propaganda sources will not be sharing those things. They have to experience things themselves.

with you on this one. They are celebrating in reality. This fantasy about them hiding in their bedroom crying is just that, fantasy.
The deportation of illegals and cutting spending waste were top items on Trumps campaign, and they are quite happy to be getting it.
So far there have been no cuts to direct benefits, and I predict hat there will not be any. I've seen a lot of damning stuff posted online, but when I look into details, they have all turned out to be bullshit so far. there is a whole lot of lying and theater going on right now from both sides of this.

This time is full blown Maga, and it's going to be ugly.

MAGA simply have not been hit with Trump's policies yet. When he hits the ACA medical insurance, VA benefits, Medicaid, SSA, student loans, etc, they will start feeling the pain. Of course, the economy will be tanking. So yea they are giddy now, but that will change. They will find out how much they actually rely on the federal government.

and it's just a matter of time before the Magat gov's in red states start doing this same thing - then lots of state and local workers would also be out of a job.

Trump is dumb and vengeful, and he's going to break the system in a way that's going to hurt most regular people, including Magats, who probably will still support him to the end. Remember there were anti-vaxxers who took their last breath still believing that Covid was a hoax. It's a cult, and there's nothing we can do to change them. Convincing the more moderate R voters and independents is the only hope.

Remember that one? Some old geezer opens the door for me and I said THANK YOU to him.

He replies, "Be sure to vote for tRUMP now!"

I looked him straight in the eyeball and replied, "Don't tell me what to do. You can take your orange dump boy and go hell loser." I walked away from the greasy old geezer.

What nerve! What god damned nerve!

These freaks think they can control every aspect of a woman's life by opening a fucking door! HA!
