I proudly voted for Hillary Clinton when I was 18. With all the information available in today’s world, there’s no excuse to be as uninformed as this woman. She’s not a child—there’s no need to emphasize that she’s 24.
Can confirm. Heard a conversation at work yesterday - young guy talking about how tariffs would mean no more income taxes, his older coworker rebutting - and what happens when they stop buying our products.
Also, frankly, 24-year-olds today are probably dumber than 24-year-olds in 2016, because a lot of people got badly fucked over by COVID - both in terms of nervous system damage and in terms of educational impact.
I guess, though it's not as if the dude didn't have a well-publicized track record of not following through with nearly all his campaign promises the first time around, especially as they related to health care.
Yes, and I can see how a woman who grew up in an environment where she hid her sexual assault bc of her family’s demonstrated victim blaming, where they likely agree w/Vance, Musk et al that childless women are mentally unstable traitors to their sex and society, would be that desperate to conceive.
There's nothing in the article that suggests she cared about the job cuts until it was her job. I have a hard time attributing good will where there is no acknowledgment of impacts beyond herself
Fair point, we won't ever know. She made sure to point out that her mortgage was too expensive, something that had absolutely nothing to do with Biden & wasn't going to change with Trump & that made the article. Regret about the more vulnerable groups being harmed didn't 🤷♂️
While there were very many other reasons not to vote for Trump, practically no one expected these types of job cuts back on election day. She is clearly not political and is motivated by her aspirations to raise a family with a stable job, serve the forests, and not much else.
This is such bullshit I am beginning to suspect you are not arguing in good faith.
*Everyone* expected this, because it was spelled out, explicitly, in Project 2025, and everyone pulling Trump’s strings was heavily connected to that project.
Ooooh yes elthe median voter definitely read Project 2025. (Maybe she should have but if this is the litmus test then I guess we just won't have Trump to Dem to voters next time.)
Further, if your goal is “raise a family with a stable job”, why vote for someone whose first term, and entire life, were all about causing instability and profiting from chaos?
Because you live in a conservative place cross-pressured by many of your loved ones? This is only her second presidential vote. She voted for Biden in 2020. She was 16 when Trump was elected the first time.
What a silly claim that no one expected massive cuts. It was clearly laid out & broadly spoken about. It's been a R goal for 50 yrs. Those paying attention expected it.
She may not have known, true. But what was presented suggests had she not lost her job, she wouldn't be regretful of her vote
Republicans have been saying this for decades and yet only Trump has taken an absolute torch to every part of the government workforce. This was not predicted by his horrendous first term actions. Did she make the wrong choice? YES obviously. Now she knows it and is willing to tell the whole world.
If she's the sort who just skims headlines she would see the claim and miss the truth buried in the story. And then there are news stories that don't do any fact checking at all.

Young people are very gullible.
We don't know one way or the other whether she acknowledged impacts beyond herself during the interview
Lots of stuff gets cut out

Gullibility= good will? Not to me
Thanks, the media in general.
