When you are raised from birth to blindly accept what authority figures tell you without questioning it, you will fall for every con man that comes along.
His words and actions over his whole LIFE, including 6 bankruptcies and the breach of contract lawsuits against him, should have shown people the Machiavellian con man that he is, to his core.
He is completely amoral and will do literally anything to get what he wants at any given time.
This is very true. I've seen several interviews where folks say something like: "but he was only supposed to hurt other people!"
As if that's a good thing.
I recall my grandmother telling me, βYou donβt actually believe that the money βlostβ in the crash of β29 just disappeared, do you? You do realize that things do not just disappear. All that money went into someoneβs pocket. And here we go again.
if I worked for putin and got where he is, I would fuck every one of the US citizens by destroying the government and the financial sector, after installing back doors to every computer system we have and give all that back to putin. did I miss any tricks, fat donnie?
Bull. They weighed the cons of a ruined economy with the "pros" of racism and misogyny and made a conscious choice. I'm sick of pussies pretending they got tricked. I'm sure he felt like a big man while he voted for his little dicked king, but he's not so big now that it's time to pay the piper.
Those voters canβt take back their vote, but what they can do is pester their representatives by complaining loudly and often. If enough people who voted for Trump complain, maybe, just maybe, representatives will grow a spine to stand up against all these draconian actions. There is no mandate!
Agreed itβs beyond hard to understand.
But/And
Request you consider expressions of voterβs remorse as opportunities for new allies. βMeet people where they are, not where you want them to beβ. Mocking them may send them deeper into their polarized corners. Conversations may help lead them out.
My metrics about "remorseful" Trump voters are;
- Are they remorseful because of what is being done to others? Being "Remorseful Because Leopards are Eating *MY* Face" will not cut it.
- If they are remorseful because of what is being done to others, is their relation to those others transactional?
Yep. I don't disagree with that.
But/And, again. Conversations are a place to start. Weed out those who are still self serving, and bring on board those who are late to understanding. More allies, better way forward.
And other than 1930 USA isn't that important anymore for trade in the world. It might happen that the USA has problems and the rest of the world has a healthy trade.
Four GOP House Representatives and 14 GOP Senators could side with Dems to have the orange demagogue impeached (for a third time) and π€π°π―π·πͺπ€π΅π¦π₯ (for the first time) to have him removed from office within 24 hours.
That's the only ππ°π―π΄π΅πͺπ΅πΆπ΅πͺπ°π―π’π way available to end his dismantling of democracy.
I don't buy these testimonies about remorse of MAGA voters because it doesn't square with what polls are showing. When the MAGA mob finally turns on its savior, it will be obvious. In the meantime, they love all of the terrible things he is doing. (probably BECAUSE they are terrible)
I agree with you. Whether in writing or on YouTube, I wouldn't even know how to go about verifying these anecdotal accounts. Other than this "evidence" there's nothing I'm witnessing IRL that shows them breaking free of the brainwashing.
Polls showed most voters agreed with goals. His disapprovals are growing for implementation. Heβs losing independents & non-hardcore maga republicans are wobbly.
The only poll above 40s for his approval ratings is Harvard, co-directed by Mark Penn who got on the trump train when he was impeached.
Makes sense. It was largely Republicans looking for hope that he has a magic wand & things are going according to plan
He suspended the automakers from tariffs until April 2nd at their request. (Odd since last nite he said they were all onboard with tariffs)
Could be why the market changed direction
Trump listens to Wall Street. The market headed south because of his tariffs, so he responded. Jobs numbers are going to start coming in this week, and if they don't look good, it won't be so easy to fix. What amazes me is that Wall Street doesn't seem concerned at all about what Musk is doing.
Jobs report only 77,000 jobs created. Next layoff 80K at VA.

More people don't know anything about history or much of anything really and will believe in what they hear if it appeals to their own views in spite of all information to the contrary available.
They know he is a terrible person.
They know he is assaulting democracy.
They know that he wants to rule by decree.
They believe that he will spare them and only hurt their "enemies".
He was and still is an abuser. The kind that obsessively strikes others while screaming "Look what you made me do!"
If people say they regret their Trump vote, their eyes are opening to lies & broken promises. Don't berate them & cause them to shut back down to the truth. Ask what they are doing. Are they protesting or calling their lawmakers?
We need their protests & future votes. My 2 cents.
Trumpism will have long-term impacts beyond the tariffs. Our largest trading partners, CAN/MEX/EU/CH are ALL looking elsewhere now for alternatives to US trade. Even if they only substitute 10% (it will likely be much more) the contraction in the US economy will effect everyone.
No sympathy - not even a teeny-weeny bit. Woe to them who were so gd ignorant they voted for him a second time. I'm weary of the "I didn't think he would ... " Enough!
And to be quite honest, I wouldn't be surprised if these dipshits would vote for him again, even after he triggers a global depression and takes all of their money.
But maybe the 1930s is this βgreatβ era of which Trump speaks. Extreme poverty, fascism in Europe thriving (Russia and USA now), segregation, lack of rights for womenβ¦ All maga goals!
Most Americans will suffer during the Trump depression - regardless of political affiliation, but at least the sane will have the moral high ground, if thatβs any consolation for the hunger
I love lentils, but after eating them for the next 4 years with nothing fun to add to them, I expect I will hate them. My neighbors all voted for the current administration, so the fact that my farts could kill at 100 paces, does not bother me.
It won't just be Americans that suffer. The only people who will benefit from this are his Oligarch puppet masters, and the people who want to destabilise Western unity. When that happens, everyone suffers.
Interviewer for? network, during 1st campaign asked why tRUMP changed parties. "...Republicans are easier to manipulate..." (his words not mine). I rest my case.
He lied about who would pay & other countries would pay down our debt
They hope he has a rabbit to pull out of his hat to make it work. (Like Nixon & his secret plan to end the Vietnam war.)
Now as a portion of his voters are nervous & he says there were be a βlittle disruption. Weβre OK with that.β
Wouldn't mind, but the MAGA lot are always banging on about how politicians are all liars and they never do what they promise. It's the very core of their anger with the establishment.
Because he's a pathological liar, he's full of shit, he normalised saying he was going to do fucking dumb shit in the run up to his first term, and *actually* did very little of it, and he had moderately "sensible" Republicans around him to mitigate his impact....
...So when he said this time that he was going to do dumb shit, everyone assumed he was exaggerating. Except he wasn't. And the people surrounding him now are either so spineless it's a miracle they can keep themselves upright, or just as batshit crazy and self-serving as he is.
Gary Black is a typical trump voter; he praises the STUPID stuff that trump says he'll do and votes for him because he believes that it is just talk that won't be put through by trump!
There is no way you can help a person like that who will not see and will not listen to the facts!
... & Find OUT!
My Action today is Stopping the SAVE Act.Can you spread the word to call Congress & tell them to vote no?The 5calls.org app has all the info to make calls.The bill is voter suppression; REQUIRES IN PERSON registration,a birth certificate or passport,&your birth cert must match your current name. TY
This is the hardest part. My mother saying, "well I think Trump gets himself in trouble with what he says but I like what he stands for." If you support him then you are supporting the things he is saying. It's hard to argue with complete illogical nonsense.
The people who voted for him donβt read. They donβt know or maybe even care that he dismisses what he sees as a road block to ultimate power.
Trump is a piece of shit and he will never change. Money is what he loves above everything else.
I can't believe someone who references the Smoot-Tawley Tariff Act would vote for Trump under any circumstance. He must've spent the last year hiding under a rock.
What does EVERYONE in this country forget that was ONE of the reasons for the Revolutionary War. Tariffs. Am I the only one who remembers the Boston Tea Party. It was because of the Tea Tariffs crazy King George did. Like the saying goes. Those who refuse to learn from history, repeat it.
I have a friend in Brazil, we studied and lived together in our carefree 20s. Then she got in an Episcopalian church, I moved, we kept in touch. Ffw 20 years: she votes Bolsonaro, because the world's gravest problem is the destruction of family and gender roles. She fears queers taking over. I wish.
I personally love hearing about how queers are 'destroying the concept of family' by people who have 12 kids with 3 different wives and cheated on them all, beat up two of them, sexually assaulted their daughter, destroyed the economy and cut off access to baby food and school lunches.
But see, I do expect it from nasty, abusive, hateful people. What I didn't see coming was fun, generous, normal nice people we have all shared life with - and were in NO WAY homophobic at all - to fall in the trap. I know she has responsibility in what she believes, but it feels like brainwashing.
It is brainwashing. A lot of churches are cults. Fascism employs a lot of psychological tactics to manipulate vulnerable people into supporting violence and hate campaigns.
True, but that is the most growth I have seen. So many are digging in and refusing to acknowledge their role or what is going on in such a blatent way. So while not thrilled by that logic in that original decision...I find it kinda hopeful to see that self-awareness.
He is so outrageous we never thought heβd actually go thru with his ridiculous plans. I didnβt vote for him either time and told the magas heβs a lying sack of shit. But here we areβ¦

The Price Increases Are From 5% To 10% (Or More) Across The Board & It May Be Just The Start Unfortunately!
These Increases WILL "Trickle Down" To End Consumers Like Us Over Time!
The Idiocy Of Trump Continues, But Don't Give Up Hope, We WILL Get Through This Together!

Many people believe that making another group suffer will see their own situation improved.
The idea that there is a limited amount of suffering to go around is surprisingly compelling, especially to people already suffering.

Bueller got away with everything.
You would be well advised to believe it & act accordingly-youβll live longer
So true
Take him at his word when he now has lackeys that wont stop him and a majority of sycophants willing to help.
They voted for him because they did not believe he could be as stupid and reckless as he is.
And when Democrats argued that he is as stupid and reckless as he appears, the voters discounted that.
They know he is assaulting democracy.
They know that he wants to rule by decree.
They believe that he will spare them and only hurt their "enemies".
He was and still is an abuser. The kind that obsessively strikes others while screaming "Look what you made me do!"
We need their protests & future votes. My 2 cents.
1. "That's so stupid/evil! He won't really do it."
2. "That's so stupid/evil! I love it!"
I base my vote entirely on different criteria, I hope you do too.
They hope he has a rabbit to pull out of his hat to make it work. (Like Nixon & his secret plan to end the Vietnam war.)
