Their "interest" is in pointing, laughing, and being happy as those "them people" they hate are harmed. They'll GLADLY suffer, and vote for their OWN suffering - which they've been raised to believe is "righteous" - as long as THEM PEOPLE have something taken away and are upset about it.
Senator John Barrasso from Wyoming is upset about the cuts but no one can really push back against Musk because he will attack them and fund an opponent if they defy him.
Musk has amassed so much money he can even rob veterans and force people to go along with it. It's up to us to stop him!
Well their stupid seats are not worth keeping if they don’t fight for citizens and constituents! The GOP could band together and stand against the Trump/Musk take over, but they don’t! So their seats in govt mean NOTHING!!
And lots of Republican voters are upset about these cuts. But there are no elections for over 18 months. But we can cast a vote against Musk now by organizing against him to takedown Twitter and Tesla!
Matt Gaetz, Mike Waltz, & Elise Stefanik have all vacated their seats this year. So there arethree special elections. There is a need for funds to turn out the vote and take back the House. That would help a lot and something to help focus energy!
Good point! There are elections special elections sooner. There are some people who can't or don't want to donate to those elections but are still looking for ways to make an impact in the fight against Elon Musk. We think this is a way anyone can easily get involved!
All volunteer service does not attract valedictorians. Need fulltime, no excuses draft. Put rich and powerful at risk. Forces integration of mixed social backgrounds, working class, middle/upper income, and rich. Get to know each other, human to human. Depend on each other for their lives.
It works.
The republiscum party hates Veterans and only uses them for photo ops, just like TRAITOR trump uses photo ops in his joint address to Congress, cutting cancer research results in a photo op with a kid with cancer-like he cares.🙄
The GOP m.o. is delay, deny, hope they die. 🤬
I can explain. Married a Vet who previously voted Rep. They are brainwashed to believe only the GOP cares about them. Once I pulled away the curtain and showed that the only party who voted on policies to help vets were dems. He quickly saw the truth and is no longer an R.
Two reasons - 1. Fox is the major channel on all military bases. 2. The orange monster hugs the flag and has hijacked the word Patriot.
People are easily sucked in and end up voting against their own best interests without realizing at the time. The bite comes later.
My gf and son are both veterans, and rely on the VA for their medical care. They were distraught when the mango menace won, because he said the VA was a target. And yet every time we go there, bumperstickers with his name are everywhere in the parking lot. It's sad, and I'm so scared for them.
Me either. The number of debates I use to have with my fellow members, and they didn’t see it. What Bush and Cheney did to the military was criminal, and they didn’t see it.
My dad: former military then civil service. Relies on govt pensions and Medicare in retirement. Also my dad—parent of THREE teachers: “we need to close the Dept of Ed.” Don’t try to make it make sense.
A part of it, there’s a portion of the “left” that loves to call them war criminals or questions why they want to work for progressive organizations. Then there’s the people that just don’t understand that a combat veteran is gruff and direct with a dark sense of humor.
Racism and hatred are powerful drugs that will sustain MAGAts through anything Trump and the GOP does. They thrive on the cruelty of their cult leaders. Owning the libs is everything to them. Trash.
Some people served. But that doesn’t mean they are any good.
Like I always said, USA is a country progressed by small group of brilliant people and constant pull back by large group of mobs who can’t foresee anything 3 weeks out
Idk but my husband is a vet and hates Trump and it’s absolutely infuriating to see other veterans continue to drink maga koolaid. Trump and his ilk prey on machismo and insecurity- which military culture is unfortunately full of.
That fairytale called the American dream has a lot to answer for here. To celebrate 'success' (within a VERY narrow definition of the word) above all else means that those richer than me must be better than me too so why wouldn't I want to hitch myself to that wagon and hope some crumbs fall my way?
He literally called us “suckers and losers”! And, during Vietnam, he felt like he should’ve been awarded a metal for avoiding venereal disease during the war that he dodged because of his fucking bone spurs🤬
Nobidy in the world understands how they do stuff. Except..if they say they believe in free speech..they don't..if they say they respect vets..they don't..if they say they respect women..they don't..if they say they respect human rights..they don't..if they say they respect democracy they don't.
you would think, but no.These are vets that we bring all of their medical care to them because they are homebound. They insist he loves them. unfortunately i have to be careful to what i say to them .
TBF nobody voted for Musk Koup Klutz Klan. GOP did not run on cuts but economic help. Dotard Don was just the Trojan horse for the Dollar Gen tech billionaire Bond villains to destroy us.👹👹👹 We can all agree those guys are dicks!

Perhaps seeing some current and future veterans will help with understanding:
I think once more Vets get fired and lose benefits, there will be a change in perception since the reality will hit hard.
We need Vets in this fight to save democracy.
Dems need to push hard for Vets right now.
Musk has amassed so much money he can even rob veterans and force people to go along with it. It's up to us to stop him!
It works.
How do we save them?
Stupid is so much worse than evil. You can identify evil, find it, and destroy it.
You cannot fix stupid people. 🤦♂️
Veteran here! I am 100% with you. I will never understand any of my veteran brothers and sisters who voted for Trump!

You would reach more people, when you add a good description into the Alt-text field.
That is pretty easy, especially, when your image just contain text.
This way, you support visually impaired people and everyone else, who rely on a good filled Alt-text.

He’s maintained about 60% of the vote across three elections. I’ll be interested in changes as a result of his destruction of VA.
Are there any Democrats addressing the VFW, or any other veterans group?
Any ads? Any podcasts?
Any showing up at town halls?
