Even the most casual political observer knew what trump wanted to do, but you become blind when your compass points towards racism and sexism. But now they are seeing the light because it affects THEM.

wilsones13.bsky.social•80 days ago

They'll see the light too late. Trump train is coming down the track. Their tears and gnashing of teeth music to his ears. They bought a pig in a poke all by themselves. Now they'll pay dearly. Not sorry for them at all.

The leopards are gonna eat GOOD.

thedlee.bsky.social•80 days ago

The internet is a helluva thing to waste.
All the knowledge available throughout human history is available at our fingertips, yet millions of morons chose Fox News, OAN & other outlets with a proven history of lying as their sources. If it didn't affect us all I'd relish their reality check.

blfreeman.bsky.social•79 days ago

No fucking sympathy for you people. Are you really that stupid and disconnected?

demodirge.bsky.social•80 days ago

Perhaps we need a two week “buyers’ remorse period” for all politicians!

flowerpot13.bsky.social•80 days ago

No Sympathy Whatsoever!

doxie-dachsie.bsky.social•80 days ago

Sorry. I have absolutely no sympathy at all for those misogynists. They are making everyone else suffer who tried to warn them. They deserve what they get. They just couldn't stand the thought of a woman president, let alone a black one. Let them screw in their own juice as the saying goes.

doxie-dachsie.bsky.social•80 days ago

OMG 😲! Autocorrect changed "stew" into a dirty word & I didn't notice it. Apologies.😳

erincfc.bsky.social•80 days ago

🤣 I actually think autocorrect made it perfect!

grizz68.bsky.social•80 days ago

#FAFO 🤷🏻‍♂️

olgaster.bsky.social•80 days ago

Did these people live under a rock for the last 8 years? He blasted out there every damn day. Oh well, I guess they're about to find out.

jesgrew1.bsky.social•80 days ago

Yeah, but the Democrats messaging is to blame!!! 🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄

samstribling1.bsky.social•80 days ago

This is why he always says he likes the poorly educated, low information voters. They're easy marks.

coolnanawendy.bsky.social•80 days ago

Be careful what you wish for 🤷🏼‍♀️

maxedge.bsky.social•80 days ago

It never ceases to amaze me how truly stupid Americans are.

lstarfyre.bsky.social•80 days ago

Me too, and I am one. It's embarrassing. Some are willfully ignorant. They go out of their way to find things that support their opinions, even using 'alternative facts' as a discussion point. I almost choked when I read one person's reply to me using that argument. I told her that just meant lies.

vigilantviolet.bsky.social•80 days ago

Now we all have to suffer.

dukeofjupiter.bsky.social•80 days ago

It's all about "feelsies" not facts or actual observations. They "felt" that the price of eggs and gas was far less under Frump. In fact, they recall free gas and a penny for a dozen eggs. It's bullshit polished to a blinding sheen.

catsinmtns.bsky.social•80 days ago

All they remember is being on extended “vacation” they lost the reality of people dying. They also believed that the stupid 🍊💩 wasn’t really the one that gave them all that free money so they could be on “vacation”. Stupid mothereffers

oceanmusic.bsky.social•80 days ago

Not a single speck of sympathy do I have for these idiots.

And now we’re all strapped to this friggin rocket.

sparrowflybynight.bsky.social•80 days ago

Imagine if they made the link with the name "Obama Care" and why it is called that by the Republicans...

stonewolfpc.bsky.social•80 days ago

Regret it all they want they voted to murder my son by voting for the one who wants to take away his medical. No forgiveness. No mercy. No more.

tropicalblond.bsky.social•80 days ago

Are you freaking kidding me 😡😡😡

lme11.bsky.social•80 days ago

Does orange stain thank his cult or does he speak to his cult anymore? Curious.
Also, I want MORE of the idiot voters to come to their realizations NOW. Not tomorrow, not next week, not on Jan 20... NOW!!

studentofhistory.bsky.social•79 days ago

The less we resist their efforts, the more quickly MAGA will feel the pain. It will be ugly and awful for all of us, but ripping the bandaid quickly has always been a better idea than slowly, agonizingly, inching it off.

lme11.bsky.social•78 days ago

I agree!

alberto-resists.bsky.social•80 days ago

tRump and GQP hating the same minorities was all magats cared about. They screwed the entire country with their ignorance. No sympathy here.

deetaylor.bsky.social•80 days ago

My oldest daughter finally expressed how misinformed she was in voting for him. Sadly, my son has no regrets as he is currently working on one of Musk's new Tesla plants. I don't anticipate any regrets from him.

kenpark.bsky.social•80 days ago

So sorry about your son. For so many T supporters, they may not feel regret until it affects them personally. And even then, they typically rationalize some excuse that absolves those actually responsible. Cognitive dissonance is quite powerful.

Well wishes to you and your family!

deetaylor.bsky.social•80 days ago

Thank you. His chief complaint is the high taxes he has to pay.
Me: Son, you are receiving an unusually high salary. Now, you can pay taxes and higher food prices. Let me know how that works out for you.

rockymountviews.bsky.social•80 days ago

I think that many people figured Kamala Harris would win and only voted for Trump out of spite.

Now, they get to live with the consequences.

Sadly, we ALL have to live with the consequences.

beachreader60.bsky.social•80 days ago

alwaysmarycoogan.bsky.social•80 days ago

Stupid is easy and absolutely no excuse

shari92.bsky.social•80 days ago

We tried telling them. They just wouldn't listen. In their little narrow minds they thought of eggs.

anubis1701.bsky.social•79 days ago

devlynangel.bsky.social•80 days ago

Damn, if only there'd been a platform where we were sharing all the info and telling them everything that would happen. 🤔

maralesemann.bsky.social•80 days ago

you have to be TRYING not to know

jstackhouse1.bsky.social•80 days ago

They were warned.

jdoggy57.bsky.social•80 days ago

Too late now 🙄

granma11.bsky.social•80 days ago

I just want to thank them for giving me 4 MORE YEARS OF SLEEPLESS NIGHTS !

vixenreclaim.bsky.social•80 days ago

Regret is useless, the only path forward is action!

paulie458.bsky.social•80 days ago

This seriously drives me nuts, they ALL have the information in their hands but damn if they bother to try and understand something they don't get or know enough about.

partypolitical7.bsky.social•80 days ago

They knew what they were doing. They all hate the same people. They voted for this.

bravoneedsbacon.bsky.social•80 days ago

People have been voting for years and decades, yet they STILL don't know that elections have Consequences?!
Especially when you vote for a corrupt moron.

underthematrix.bsky.social•80 days ago

I don’t believe her.

rtrudeau.bsky.social•80 days ago

'I never thought leopards would eat MY face,' sobs woman who voted for the Leopards Eating People's Faces Party

skeptical-vanessa.bsky.social•80 days ago

My nephew voted for Trump; he works for an electronics automotive supplier, and he got a 50% pay cut. His dad has ALS & NEEDS his Medicare/Medicaid/Social Security for care. He also has a baby daughter. He voted against his family’s best interest. His is in his FO phase of his FA vote.

skeptical-vanessa.bsky.social•80 days ago

My other sister recently married a MAGA; her son is gay & engaged to a man who is in the US on a green card from South America. My gay nephew is cutting off family members who voted against his best interests. BTW the MAGA guy was fired from his automotive job & sister has to work 2 jobs.

onioneater.bsky.social•80 days ago

This why we must have competency tests before voting. Nothing complicated. Not trying to fool anyone. Just a simple “Which way is up?” question should be enough.

erincfc.bsky.social•80 days ago

Of course they could support impeachment but then we'd be left with the nasty incompetent one. We're all screwed because their racism won out over any logic.

lstarfyre.bsky.social•80 days ago

I've seen a bunch of videos and posts about people finally realizing what their vote has wrought. If they pay attention at all, they're not happy. The others will have big surprises in store for them when the horrors commence.

madisonfly.bsky.social•80 days ago

No patience for them or their stories…sorry…

chico-and-boots.bsky.social•79 days ago

That’s not really a new thing. There were “trump regrets” pages on social media back in November 2016. A lot of people who didn’t realize that Obamacare and the ACA are the same thing. Stupid is as stupid does.

espritdecorp.bsky.social•80 days ago

What you can do is write to your congressmen and let them know you want to save ACA from the chopping block. Don't just give up.

ladyjaded.bsky.social•80 days ago

If only there was a warning ⚠️ 😕

lstarfyre.bsky.social•80 days ago

For real, like the first time he was prez? That should have told them something. Or how about all his warnings about what he was going to do? Or, how about all of us SHOUTING that they needed to read up about P2025 or watch a show about it. SMDH

sandihamilton.bsky.social•80 days ago

It's called research.

costumesgal505.bsky.social•80 days ago

Most of these people sound old enough to have lived through his first presidency and remembered it. And they are shocked ? Do they not listen to his hateful speeches?

zuuly-u-nut.bsky.social•79 days ago

Lots of people have no clue that Obama care is ACA ... im like duh !!!

hollykeefer.bsky.social•63 days ago

Set up a fund for only people who DIDN'T vote for him and if they do have preexisting conditions, we send those folks the money until midterms when we can at least work to get Dems elected.
I honestly don't know. That's all I can think of. Sorry 😔

forseofone.bsky.social•80 days ago

multiply that by millions. this is not an isolated deal.

kipperbocker.bsky.social•80 days ago

I don’t have an ounce of sympathy. Their vote has doomed the rest of us. My sympathy is reserved for those who did not vote for Trump. In fact, it will be somewhat satisfying to see Trumpkins pay a price for their
stupidity.

crg1372.bsky.social•80 days ago

I have zero damns left to give about those people.

xgabriellex.bsky.social•80 days ago

They only care about owning the libs 🙄
FAFO

blue-bohemian.bsky.social•80 days ago

I’m really can’t feel bad for these people and the many more that will or might realize that they voted against their own interests. They also voted in so much more and we all have to suffer due to their willful ignorance. Unfortunately so do we! Next time know what you are doing for real!

dub273.bsky.social•80 days ago

I can't even.

MAGA voters are SO. GOD. DAMNED. IGNORANT.

asburykat.bsky.social•80 days ago

They can f*** all the way off

mame116.bsky.social•80 days ago

The “I told you so” is cold comfort to the toxic circus we will endure.

imissjerry.bsky.social•79 days ago

Fucking idots

fartingfascists.bsky.social•80 days ago

The one about the kids on IEP's hits close to home. People have to do better to actively inform their f'n selves!

gulfwarvet.bsky.social•80 days ago

BS. Once confronted with the "your vote fucked us and you" they have only two responses they can give:

1) Yeah, so what. I'm as racist and bigoted as he is and he's going to give me the cruelty on "those people" I desire.

or 2) But how was I to know that my vote would do that? What can I do now?
