What’s messed up is that he would probably vote for Trump again even after this. GOP voters are brainwashed till it hits their wallet and then they cry wolf 🙄

pgonz.bsky.social•4 days ago

He send money to the farmers.

rocnybob.bsky.social•4 days ago

I’m sure Mr. Hartman understood what a completely morally bankrupt person Trump is when he voted for him. He regrets it now only because Trump is now coming for him.

Spoiler: I could have told him that.

Only when it impacts them personally, do they wake up. Not the felony convictions, the sexual assaults on women, POC, or even when he mocked a disabled person, called those who served losers or led an insurrection on our Capitol that injured police and led to the deaths of other Capitol police.

Absolutely correct.
But we should stick our heads up once in a while just to really see what is going on around us. It could prove to be helpful. 🤞🏻

They also think all these layoffs are cutting unnecessary staff. We need to continue to highlight the people behind the jobs and how important their work was.

chefannnolan.bsky.social•4 days ago

Whatever. Enjoy the life you voted for.

Gonna hit Wyoming hard where I live. Local food banks depend on our farmers

If this is what “Having their backs” looks like, I would take a hard pass

marineblue52.bsky.social•4 days ago

It's that FAFO moment that those majority of farmers that voted for Trump are just now seeing the light.
We warned them over and over. Can't fix stupid.

allisonwantstolive.bsky.social•4 days ago

They voted for him three times. If he got up on stage right now and said vote for me, I promise to save your farms. They would do it again...

bit-popler.bsky.social•4 days ago

even if the Dems are normally not "left" - with my German eyes Dems are right and Reps are far-right (and MAGAts are fascists).

chaostosurreal.bsky.social•4 days ago

Its sad that they don't care as long as they're not getting hit

Make America malnourished again

beyond-hope.bsky.social•4 days ago

Should have consider regressive TAXES before he voted for vile draft dodging chickenhawk.

oliverthelakerat.bsky.social•4 days ago

And by “left” he means Ronald Reagan left.

hard-driver.bsky.social•4 days ago

Reagan would be called a RINO.

speerheld.bsky.social•4 days ago

Yep.

speerheld.bsky.social•4 days ago

Alt take: “Bad stuff has happened to me so I’m not going to support the racist, fascist criminals anymore. Even though that wasn’t a dealbreaker before.”

mommomeileen.bsky.social•4 days ago

If you have a brain it should push you left.

resonanteye.bsky.social•4 days ago

if he gets far enough left he'll get his guns back.

billyofohio.bsky.social•4 days ago

Why do the American people deserve this crap

silvertipgrizz.bsky.social•4 days ago

………. oh well.

okelydokely.bsky.social•4 days ago

Sadly, they are liars. It won't push them left.

guy-2222.bsky.social•4 days ago

And that stupid 'arse-licker' 100% sold out to the 😈devil no matter what 'Maria Bartiromo' promoting EVERYTHING Trump lays out and imposes.. blindly supporting him through thick and thin full tilt, no question asked ..without even thinking the least ..twice. Nauseating🤢!

deaconbluesagain.bsky.social•4 days ago

This is why people need to pay attention BEFORE THE ELECTIONS

This is project 2025 and we tried to tell them but they were to busy trying to own the libs to listen

cloudypatriot.bsky.social•4 days ago

I live in a purple state, surrounded by farmers. The farmers in my county vote blue, but, sadly, we need to root for these tariffs to crush us. We need to sink before we can swim again. Let's give these red states what they wanted.

Cory Booker passes the 24 hour mark, he is still going.

Donald Trump hates the poor

moketchup.bsky.social•3 days ago

That's the way the world works in Trump land. Fuck your enemies. Fuck your friends harder

witchofscots.bsky.social•4 days ago

Good yet also he voted for pain and suffering but he thought it would be for others not himself.

josey75.bsky.social•4 days ago

They voted overwhelmingly for Trump even after first term when he destroyed farmers & then bailed them out to the tune of millions & millions of taxpayer dollars & yet they voted for him again- you reap what you sow-deal w consequences of votes. no sympathy; tax payer money should go to USAID, etc.
