Yeah...even hardcore Republican voters won't accept that.

The hardcore republican voters better get on with not accepting it, before it’s all gone.

dbpublisher.bsky.social•1 day ago

They got the cult members to change sides in the new Cold War, to learn to hate Canada, not believe in science, medicine and public education. I think accepting the end of social security and Medicare/medicaid won’t be that difficult— just one insane rant from the orange man should do it.

I bet a lot of them accept their own pain as the price they have to pay to get out of Biden’s communist mess. Then, they’ll be spoon fed another lie that they’ll soak up like Gospel. MAGA is a diseased group of stupids.

They have slashed SSI staff so deep, it’s a 100 minute wait by phone. And if you’re applying now? They 3 months to get approved. That’s not “efficiency”.

If Fox can spin it, they’ll believe it’s good for them.

maximumbob4real.bsky.social•1 day ago

When Trump programs cause pain that cracks the MAGA ranks he and his stooges will try bullying them to embrace his reality vs. what they see with their own eyes. And what that fails, full martial law

It's gonna take a lot to get past our individualistic society and all the division and distractions and learn to organize for our interests as working class people. We definitely need a new party or movement the current system is broken.

lizafella.bsky.social•1 day ago

You are completely right. The Kremlin's goal for decades has been to distract and divide the US, and make neighbors see one another as enemies.

It's like everybody in the US should go to summer camp in a Nordic country

I think the greedy billionaire class are the ones that have done this to us more so than the cremlin. As the two parties become in substance almost the same serving billionaire interests they try to use them to divide us and feel like we live in a democracy.

Look what his base did last time to the Capitol when they believed the election was stolen. What did those people look like? Veterans and people that get assistance. Take away something they actually need. And let’s see what happens. I will bring the wine.

Why fight USAID? Because that agency was important in fighting apartheid, against interests of white supremicist Elon Musk.
Why fight IRS? Because they tried to get Trump to pay taxes.

motorcitygal66.bsky.social•1 day ago

Democrats need to do massive media. Blitz with Trump saying you're fired and showing the veterans. The old people in nursing homes use walkers. Etc. Back it up showing cuts they have already made. This is not fraud and waste. This is just plain cruelty.

chandranatha.bsky.social•21 hours ago

I hope you’re correct but my sister is still all in with them even though she relies on social security to survive.

tfergsc.bsky.social•1 day ago

It’s almost like they know they don’t have to worry about winning elections ever again.

jbabbott.bsky.social•1 day ago

Unfortunately, too many hardcore Republican voters won't even believe it happened after it is done and the dust is settled. They'll find a way to deny that it happened at all unless it directly affects them, and when it does directly hit them, they'll find a reason to blame the dems.

coffee-cat-2022.bsky.social•1 day ago

Except they are going along with it. If the hard ore republicans are mad they need to be protesting etc too. I know some are at town halls. But it seems like congress republicans are all too happy to shut up and get in line.

kevinfry.bsky.social•1 day ago

They’d need to get entitlement cuts done before midterms, because the Rs will certainly lose control of the House. Of course if they do it there’ll be an electoral bloodbath. But Trump and his merry band of privatizers will have gotten what they want & won’t care. This is about money, not politics

dinar.bsky.social•1 day ago

While all of that is true, I genuinely worry about people’s ability to decipher the lies from reality.

Trump and Republicans could blame Biden for the next 4 years and I worry too many Americans will believe it.

bluesttomato.bsky.social•19 hours ago

I’m curious about employees called back after their firing? This might sound crazy - but are they calling back persons of color? Or just white fired federal workers? I can’t help but think that’s one of their motives of the chaos. Because they are racists to the core.

When does open violence from the opposition become the only way to save what used to be our country? Legal methods don’t seem to be able to do it. Speeches, court filings, etc take an amount of time we don’t have. What’s already happened to our place in the world will take 50 years to correct. ✊

I think MAGA Republicans will still support Trump. He can take everything from them and they still won’t blame him.

What is needed is for one Republican to shout “I’m Spartacus”, then perhaps we can get back on the normality track.

Their only interest is getting re-elected, to which end the less informed their voters are the better. So, defund public education, ban books, exclude certain journalists etc etc. I hold out no hope for the Republican Congress - they are all traitors.

But they are supporting him. Polling his base shows they do still approve of him and his chaos. This idea that his base will push back when it hits them never manifests big numbers because many shut off the news after election night and will check back in 3 yrs.

It’s the mentality that “they already have the votes”. We know Don Trump didn’t win this election. He actually probably got landslid. The fake assassination and corny ass photo, and Musk bought him after that. All part of the plan. Trump won’t make it to 2026. Book that.
