I have a coworker who I respect greatly because she is a nice person and she does great work. I have no reason not to like her and treat her as one of my best coworkers. We work in IT management for a large organization. She is educated, smart, coherent, and like I said, she is one of the best that I get to work with. I’m thankful for her.

But man is she brainwashed by Fox. We once got into a conversation on politics in 2024 and it became clear to me that she was voting for Trump. She thought Kamala couldn’t string a sentence together and that things had been better under Trump. We respectfully disagreed.

Politics came up again a couple of days ago. She offered that she was pissed that gas prices were so high. She offered that she felt betrayed, etc. I felt like it was progress in her opening up to the idea that Trump is a turd UNTIL she kept on with the What-About-ism with Kamala and then how both sides claim the other side cheated in elections, etc, yada yada. She has a Fox talking point for everything. So we drop it. Life goes on.

Trump’s supporters will give up a little in admitting that Trump is wrong in the Iran war because life has been made even more inconvenient and Trump has broken his campaign promises now time and time again, but it’s still a step too far for them to acknowledge that they couldn’t see this coming or that he really does smell like a turd despite it being so fucking obvious. I can agree that Kamala was going to be an another democratic establishment president, but at least she wouldn’t be terrorizing us all every day.

Our president is an evil dim-witted asshole.

He was elected by well-intentioned but equally dim-witted assholes.

No, they are definitely not well-intentioned. They are as equally evil dim-witted assholes as he are.

Maybe this is a hot take but I think harris (or Biden) also would have ended up attacking Iran. I've seen no evidence that either one of them was willing to say "no" to Israel. Things would look different in a lot of ways but not this particular one.
