That's too bad.

And the MAGA’s there didn’t realize voting for Donnie was going to kill their economy….suckers

Last time I remember thinking Kansas was a normal place was the day before I read some places there were going back to gravel roads because the tax base was decimated.

Apparently, Kansas is just too woke and DEI.

Um this is the President’s doing NOT the Gov of Kansas

According to George W. Bush’s USAID Chief, USAID was rated by a nonpartisan poll as the 3rd most effective U.S. governmental agency. Meanwhile, U.S. grown food is rotting in ports around the globe thanks to co-president Elmo and trump.

Obviously the republicans—-especially all of those representing Kansas—-don’t give a fine fuck. Spread the word.

I love this for the trumpers 🤗

Kansas votes trump, now they can f around and find out---dummies.

👋🏼 Kansas resident here who definitely did not vote for Trump. We even have a female, Democratic governor. I still don’t know how that happened.

midwestmagpie13.bsky.social•16 days ago

Because she is great! I’m nervous on who will be elected after her. Rural Kansas voted for drumpf. The larger cities went for Harris.

mustangsally71.bsky.social•16 days ago

I love her!

This wonderful small town and charming school will be decimated. Everyone I know who lives there is a Republican...FAFO.

alkohl.bsky.social•17 days ago

My BIL lives in Manhattan, KS.

We visited over Xmas. Cool town.

But you are correct, very Republican as is most of Kansas.

mccainsuzanne.bsky.social•16 days ago

I love Manhattan, Kansas. Friendly people.

alkohl.bsky.social•16 days ago

Yes. My experience is that it's one place where people you don't know wave at you as you're driving by.

mccainsuzanne.bsky.social•16 days ago

We had a computer issue and took it to a shop. I don't think they charged us!

christopherpike.bsky.social•16 days ago

That vote for Fascists.

That my friend is a great illustration of mixed emotions. Also known as the school of hard knocks.

Exactly — and if that’s what it takes to get their attention, so be it (KS native here)

dognutz.bsky.social•17 days ago

It's a trend in these red states. They hate the government so much that they don't care what happens in the government

ratherodd.bsky.social•17 days ago

Does America really need more famers? (Yes)

coomtothebroom.bsky.social•17 days ago

Join us over on the dark side, Kansas. We have cheaply priced eggs.

Seriously, let’s help recruit states burnt by Trump instead of laughing at them. This is a real chance to make some changes.

Voting has consequences

bootsie1.bsky.social•17 days ago

Isn't Kansas a red state?

karlykingsley.bsky.social•17 days ago

Sure is

sunfloweropine.bsky.social•17 days ago

But they have a female Democrat for governor

pukarocks.bsky.social•17 days ago

kentucky is a blue governor but has idiot red hats

skramer.bsky.social•16 days ago

It is — but has moved to purple in recent years. There are many Dems fighting hard on the ground there — and protecting abortion rights in the process. Also, Democratic governor.
