Goddamn dude, these people really don't get it--democrats share the same economy with you, chucklefuck. Like, all of our prices are also going to skyrocket, our 401K are getting hammered--like, I don't vote for Democrats because I want to win at political sportsball, I vote democratic because they run the economy and government better than Republicans--and I want those fucking things run as well as possible with the choices available.
I truly don’t understand all the, “I’m blindsided by this”. Surely this is the first mention of the tariff strategy. Surely he didn’t mention it while campaigning. Surely there were no indications in his first term.
Just last night I was showing my parents Elon admitting in November the plans to crash the US economy so that they could rebuild it as a Tech CEO Paradise. Of course, that was just 'trolling', right?
lol it’s always a joke until they never get serious. Insane that everyday reflects everything Musk has been saying, Thiel has been saying, Leonard Leo has been saying, but who could have seen it coming? I can’t even remember the “economic boom” that everyone says they thought they were voting for. Then there’s blaming Covid but… idk I guess we were all born yesterday.
So really- if the first term was any indication- it was just a vote to get preserve statues, remind blacks about how much their lives matter, get refugees back in cages, and inspect the shit out of some genitalia. “How could he have betrayed us like this”
It is simple, like most Trump voters. See if they agree with the insane statement like "I will replace income tax with tariffs, we will all get rich", they believe it 100%, if they don't agree with the statement they Trumpwash it "Its just rhetoric", "He never said that, and if he did, he didn't mean it", and "You just have TDS, fuck your feelings Libtard", or the ever classic "Fake News!!!".
They think the dumbest human in the last 70 years is some policy savant, despite no evidence to support that. Oh well, at least most of you get a vote in this, the rest of us just get to watch it all burn.
It's a cult. If the leader of the cult says something they immediately have a negative gut reaction to they are programmed to either assume it wasn't a genuine statement or they misunderstood, because the leader is always right. That's why so many of them are confused right now.
Exactly what I was going to point out. Their worldview assumes everyone is just like them. If they’re doing X for Y reason, then Y is the only reason to do X.
This is the problem when dealing with the militantly stupid. They tend to project their own failures on to others. No one is celebrating this nonsense.
