Trump is killing the global economy, pulling everyone into a recession. Prices for daily necessities are skyrocketing, and still Trump has 40% approval rating in the US? Like do those fckng idiots like paying more for everyday stuff? What the fck is wrong with them.
Team sports mentality. Trump is "their guy" and however he royally screws up "at least he's not a Democrat"
Also, a lot of folks said point blank voting for Trump is being a sucker and a fool, and to go against Trump is to admit they got fooled.
Yesterday in an interview I heard the MAGA person was hard core that whatever the government is doing, they secretly have reasons they can't tell us because spilling the Intel would be so dangerous. Pretty much the same crowd whining about a liberal government keeping secrets from them now celebrates secrets being managed by the conservatives.
The alternative would have been a woman of color and damned if they ever suggest that could have been a better outcome.
Additionally, the racists do still have the Hispanics getting screwed over and afraid. The people who got injured and killed were "obnoxious liberals" that are better gone anyway.
Of course this is also as close as they have seen in decades of federal policies trying to make it harder for poor people and women to vote.
There's a lot of vile sentiment and being close to that being followed is worth having problems.
What the fuck is wrong with most Americans as I we are seeing more real action from Canadians while Americans mostly complain online and may go to a protest once in a while if at all, plus and protests are ineffective as team Trump only hear/feel money. You got to hit MAGA where it counts and target boycott their business like the Canadians. If Americans did the same, we would be hearing about all the MAGA businesses going bankrupt. I am very disappointed with Americans and shocked they are so passive.
Born to be free... Free to do fuck all
free as in freedom in north korea
Unlimited freedom like the US style "unlimited" holiday... subject to manager approval... and scrutiny if you're seen to take too much... also not being a team player who is the first to get fired when there are layoffs...
