Too many citizens determined to fuck round by voting for Donald Trump. Simply days into the Trump administration, they’re already beginning to discover out.
Put together your self for what you’re about to learn. It boggles all creativeness.
Prepared? Let’s go.
You see, nobody advised them Trump hated Mexicans. All they needed to do was activate any Trump speech, at any time, and they’d’ve heard Trump’s virulent anti-Latino hate. They may’ve caught Trump’s hate rally at Madison Sq. Backyard on Oct. 27, 2024, and caught the “jokes” about Puerto Rico, or the large backlash to it lined by nearly all media retailers, together with Spanish-language ones.
Boggles the thoughts that he heard Trump’s bullshit guarantees to decrease fuel costs however didn’t hear Trump’s overt racism and bigotry till after the election. How does that occur? We have to perceive that higher to be taught to successfully fight it. There’s nothing like that on the left. Nobody votes for Democrats with this sort of magical pondering. The place does it come from?
Subsequent.
Sure.
The reply is sure. And no, I’m not being glib.
Why would anybody who relies on authorities applications vote for the celebration of eliminating authorities applications?
Here’s a before-and-after of somebody who is admittedly dangerous at politics.
And now:
If solely somebody had warned her.
Trump’s govt order, amongst different issues, permits the federal government to revoke visas for noncitizen residents who “bear hostile attitudes toward [U.S.] citizens, culture, government, institutions, or founding principles.”
That purpose aligns with Trump’s guarantees final Might, when he mentioned, “When I am president, we will not allow our colleges to be taken over by violent radicals. If you come here from another country and try to bring jihadism or anti-Americanism or antisemitism to our campuses, we will immediately deport you.”
So an individual who advocated withholding votes from Harris … now probably will get to see her campus allies deported.
Subsequent up is one among my favourite new genres of “leopards eating faces” tales. These are individuals who seem to have voted for the anti-government celebration however both work for the federal government or aspire to work for it.
Boyfriend? Did they’ve a baby out of wedlock? Sure, please apply for a federal job and have youngsters out of wedlock after which vote for the celebration that hates each these issues. That is smart. Sheesh.
However it’s humorous to see them enchantment to Trump, pondering he provides a shit about them. It hilariously mimics the development in Russia for individuals to movie appeals to Putin as if he provides a shit. So that they’ll videotape themselves saying issues like “Our husbands are being sent in meat waves to die, without having proper equipment,” pondering that the one purpose that’s taking place is that their Pricey Chief has no concept and can be horrified to seek out out. In reality, Putin is aware of full effectively and doesn’t give a rattling.
Identical with Trump. He would not care. He had a trillion {dollars} of web value sitting in his inauguration viewers, not the common individuals he used as marketing campaign props throughout his rallies. He doesn’t care about them.
I do really feel dangerous for the four-month-old daughter, nevertheless. It’s not her fault her dad and mom are hopeless.
This one thinks Trump and Texas Sen. Ted Cruz care.
However this one at the very least hints at how their cognitive dissonance works. You see, authorities spending is uncontrolled in all places else, simply not within the areas the place they work.
There was nothing “unintended” about this household dropping their job. You don’t promise to chop $2 trillion from the federal price range and suppose something is getting spared. You don’t get to take a seat there and choose everybody else’s work as unworthy, pondering your Trump vote will defend your personal. There are in the end few issues dumber than being a federal worker and voting for Trump or every other Republican. The one ones defending their jobs are Democrats. Perhaps vote for them subsequent time.
And the enchantment to veterans is hilarious. The draft-dodging Trump has proven a few of his greatest disdain for wounded veterans. Bear in mind this when Trump mentioned this?
I watched [late right-wing billionaire] Sheldon [Adelson] sitting so proud within the White Home once we gave Miriam [Adelson] the Presidential Medal of Freedom—that’s the very best award you will get as a civilian. It’s the equal of the Congressional Medal of Honor, however civilian model. It’s truly significantly better as a result of everybody [who] will get the Congressional Medal of Honor, they’re troopers. They’re both in very dangerous form as a result of they’ve been hit so many instances by bullets, or they’re lifeless. She will get it, and she or he’s a wholesome, stunning girl.
That’s the loopy factor. We’re not asking voters to consider our phrases or arguments. We’re asking them to easily hearken to Trump himself, and so they refuse to do even that.
In response to that tweet, conservative blue-checkmarks all determined that it was former President Joe Biden’s fault that this job supply was terminated. You possibly can think about how convoluted the arguments have been—how Biden supporters have been wilfully misinterpreting the true intent of Trump’s blanket, common, 100% hiring freeze with the intention to hurt their Pricey Chief.
So at what level do they understand they’ve made an actual mistake, and that they’ll bear the brunt of a lot of the ache Trump is raring to dish? For a lot of of them, the reply isn’t.
However we don’t want to fret in regards to the MAGA dead-enders. How can we shift the opposite 15-20% of Trump voters who merely don’t know higher?
That’s what we have to work out.
Every day Kos is completely different as a result of we do not maintain again, and we’re not afraid to name out Trump. Remeber “Is he evil or merely stupid?” Yeah, that was us, and can proceed to be together with your assist. Chip in $5 to Every day Kos.
