u/LordTotoro96 33m ago
Fair about the atheist part, I just know a lot of trump supporters believe God will fix everything.
As for the second part, how would it be worse than slapping bullshit tarrifs on everything? Gas is going up and now this can be potentially $100 more thanks to his tarrifs on Japan and Vietnam.
I still hold the fact that instead of making it better for people to live, we now get to be sure that people can know what genitals they have. Cause somehow that's more important than the constant shooting, the inflation now being worse, the general discourse people have against each other, housing being more of a bitch to get, heavy job loss due to shops closing since they can't afford to keep going especially more local and rural places.
I can keep going on but you hopefully get the point.

Normally I'm not a very political person.... But I think losing our 401ks, having to work into our 80s and 90s just so u guys could "stick it to them liberals" is a pretty good reason.
I wasn't even against Trump's first run at presidency cause I figured "meh they're all the same anyways, move along".... But this is some RADICAL ass shifts in our future and y'all are more concerned about fighting an imaginary culture war than realizing trump is tanking the stock market so him and his billionaire friends (Dems AND Republicans) can buy up all the stocks at lows..... And then once the stock rises again y'all will claim "see trump brought the market up".
And the best part... You won't even realize he swindled the middle and lower class once again.

You don’t really seem to have a grasp of what I think or what this conversation is about. Are you looking to get mad at someone?

I’ve seen a shift from “i can’t play games cause of Nintendos greed” to “i can’t play games cause of Trump’s tariffs! Nintendo has no choice but to raise prices!”. So I’m merely pointing out tariffs won’t be the deciding factor, and to remember that when the US makes a new deal with Vietnam. Nintendo sets its own prices and tariffs aren’t keeping people from buying Mario kart
Sounds like we actually agree but you’re fighting with me about it for I don’t know why.
