It’s really hard to feel sorry for someone who to me is a racist. That’s why most (not all) voted for him. Boo, Hoo cry to someone who cares.

I haven't a drop of sympathy for trump voters who were perfectly content destroying others' lives, as long as theirs wasn't impacted.

It's not as if there were millions of people letting you know something like this would happen.

bramp.bsky.social•15 days ago

Interesting because it's a defense program being disrupted. First I've heard of that. Dems would be wise to emphasize the national security issues related to this clusterfuck. This is obvious as are firing FBI personnel and pushing CIA retirements. Also non credentialed people getting deep access...

allcaps-22.bsky.social•15 days ago

Not necessarily. May be a project with USAID, that was done through Army procurement.

bramp.bsky.social•15 days ago

Sheesh!
DOD has such a huge budget. It seems kind of unfair or predatory for the Army to be tapping into foreign aid funds for a project being worked on by a defense contractor. This might be an actual example of fraud and abuse that should be cut...

allcaps-22.bsky.social•15 days ago

I think it’s the other way around. It’s likely some sort of joint mission between USAID and the Army. The Army isn’t tapping into USAID funds, rather the Army is funding a project using USAID personnel.

What were they thinking when all that 🗑 was being dished out? The typical reaction- OH they are going after THEM but NOT ME! YEAH, & how about those eggs & groceries? That was his new word " groceries " he never heard it before, & you expect him to even TRY to think about you?? NOW do you get it?

Nothing in the article says he voted for Trump.

Other than context clues and reading comprehension.

I would argue the “I didn’t expect…” part suggests it.

youngcrone.bsky.social•15 days ago

Anyone remember Iraq? One of the many dumb things the Republicans did was *fire* the Iraqi army and police when all they had to do was *hire* them. Give em fresh uniforms and three squares a day.....

Republican ideas of 'cheaper' are always more expensive to America. Always.

michaelatty.bsky.social•15 days ago

Trump loves the poorly educated. $140K a year and he was worried about the cost of eggs? Does he live in Beverly Hills?

mkwilson27.bsky.social•15 days ago

iphilantropist.bsky.social•15 days ago

where in the article did it say that these laid off workers voted for trump?

iphilantropist.bsky.social•15 days ago

while we all can gloat about this, it doesnt change the fact that the dems lost *again* to this face-eating leopard bec of their amazingly incoherent messaging

Let me break out my tiny violin for the guy who's losing his six figure job and actually has a 401k to dip in to.

rocketboy1313.bsky.social•15 days ago

That guy is clearly benefiting from the status quo.
Why the hell would he vote for someone who promises to break the status quo?

twoblueshoes.bsky.social•15 days ago

So the comments about “he’s making $140k a year and has zero savings to even last a week” is kind of the whole problem with the “the economy is bad and middle class families just simply cannot make it so we voted for trump” crowd. An incredible amount of them live WAY WAY beyond their means.

twoblueshoes.bsky.social•15 days ago

Kids all play travel sports. They have a toy hauler and a boat, they have multiple tricked out side by sides. Its just house after house after house after house after house of these people. All of them saying groceries are simply too expensive. Because they live SO extravagantly.

twoblueshoes.bsky.social•15 days ago

They have $700k-1M houses, they have massive trucks, top trim level, their wives have Navigators. The women have $1-2k a month in hair extensions, botox, manicures, eyelash extensions, Stanley cups, lululemon and allo clothes, etc. their kids are all in private school. Kids all have $70k+ cars

twoblueshoes.bsky.social•15 days ago

There are SO MANY govt employees (cops, customs, contractors) who live in my town, with the contractually obligated nurse wives. They’re bringing in, as a household, about $250k a year. Plenty to live on comfortably. But they have to keep up with the joneses and live as if they make $800k a year

stonemom.bsky.social•9 days ago

Unclear. Do we know he's a trump voter? Or, I guess, a non-voter?

cruthritter.bsky.social•15 days ago

He just got laid off last week and ALREADY tapped into his 401k?? Not very good money manager, is he? He should have considered the consequences!

vinkohl.bsky.social•15 days ago

Makes you wonder how many others are out there in the same dire financial situation, but don't have a 401k to fall back on? Some of these folks are ripe for the pickings when it comes to the mid terms, others are lost to the cult.

It’s definitely a cheetah. I stole this from another post weeks ago, but it brings me so much joy.

Cry me a river..... Maybe instead of crying the blues for playing a hand in causing this circus. Get onto your representatives and demand they step up to do the right thing. Help try and undue all the damage this administration is causing. Honestly. Fix your mess!

kellonearth.bsky.social•15 days ago

I don't understand this response since there's nothing in the article about this worker having voted for Trump.

christinescheffer.bsky.social•15 days ago

Because those of us with even half a brain, that didn’t vote for trump, could see this coming a mile away. Musk literally told us what they were going to do.

nancyspantsbelt.bsky.social•15 days ago

So many well off people are going to be ruined by voting for him!👹🙄🤔 They just thought it would be poor's and browns!👹

clara--oliver.bsky.social•15 days ago

He probably didn't have any warning that Trump would be this destructive. I have some sympathy for those who don't realize that right-wing 'media' is just actors/fiction. My parents had NO idea this amount of damage was the plan. Zero. They're in genuine shock. Fox tells them nothing.

christinescheffer.bsky.social•15 days ago

That’s no excuse. Zero sympathy.
