    No we don’t. Outside of rich assholes who stand to profit, not a single American wants this. We are just too stupid to handle the conman who tells us to our face that he’s going to ruin is.

    There is a line from “Going Postal” which sums it up amazingly, but I can’t find the quote. Something to the effect of “I tell them what I am, I show them how the cards are marked, and they smile and nod to each other, and think themselves fine fellows for doing business with me.”

    It’s infuriating. We could use a Vetrinati just now.

      Yes they do.

      not a single American wants this.

      1/3 openly wants to suck Trumps dick and loves everything he does. 1/3 didn’t care to get off their couch, so they’ve openly accepted what Trump is going to do, none of which should be a surprise unless you decided to cut yourself off from politics, which means you just don’t care.

      The only people that didn’t want this is the remaining 1/3 that voted against Trump. As for the rest of you, this is all on you. You wanted this and you’re going to get it.

        They one third, and to an extent the second third, want the racism, the homophobia, the dismantling of government, maybe even the wreckage of the US as an international power.

        None of them wanted higher prices.

        Oh blow it out your ass.

        “All of them want this!”

        “1/3 want this!”

        Firstly, be consistent. Secondly, the 1/3 that voted in favor voted for the lies they were told (and to hurt brown people).

        Nobody voted for that moron because of what he would actually do. Those aware voted against. Those in favor bought all the lies.

        Either way you’re full of shit.

          Project 2025 was well known and illustrated before he ran for election and was pushed in the media leading up to the election.

          If you didn’t know what Trump was going to do then that is on your for burying your head in the sand and refusing to listen.

          Nothing I said is inconsistent.

          If you buried your head in the sand then you ACCEPT whatever comes your way. Basically, you asked for this and now you get it.

          If you voted for Trump then you openly wanted this because everything he said he was going to do he is DOING. In addition to that most of what you see him doing today he also did in his first term.

          Sorry bruh but there is no argument here you can make. If any one of you dumb asses didn’t want this then you should have voted against him. But you didn’t. You either sat on your fat ass or you voted Trump. Either way you’re getting what you asked for.

          The one that can blow it out of their ass is you. I have no sympathy for you or your moronic opinion.
