    You can still take solice in knowing that you “owned some libs” though. That just makes the whole thing worth it, doesn’t it?

    Heartbreaking.

    I can’t stop crying about this redcap’s 23% loss in profits. Never mind that I’m not sure whether my Social Security disability will continue at all (it’s been delayed the last couple of months, to the point I can’t afford ramen right now) or that they’re building interment camps. Or that my doctors say Medicare won’t allow my prescriptions anymore unless I can travel the hour and a half to physically show up at their office, which I cannot do since I’m 100% homebound and Medicare has suddenly decided they’re not allowing remote visits anymore, so I’ll have to stop taking lifesaving meds I’ve been on for 20 years.

    But yes, this guy’s 23% profit loss will keep me up tonight.

    I did not vote for a neutron bomb to wipe out supply chains and small businesses…

    Yes you did jackass. People like him are the reason I don’t have a job anymore.

    This is just like Chinese Cultural Revolution. That destroyed their economy and it took them a few decades to rebuild.

    It is easier to destroy but hard to build…I hope they learned their lesson.

        The vast majority of them won’t learn anything. They are just looking to blame someone right now. Next election (if there is one) some dem will say something they hate, things will be better for them, and they are right back on the trump train.

        Most of them are too far gone, in the cult, and listen to nothing but the propaganda. Any soft realization will quickly be forgotten when they are told how it’s the other sides fault b

      Yep this is “Trump’s Great Leap Forward” and we should start referring to it as such.

        Chickens are at least more likely to be useful. That is more of an accident than anything, seeing as Trump and Mao are just different shapes of crap.

      At some level, I’m just jealous of these people for getting what they voted for. I haven’t gotten what I voted for ever since I was old enough to vote.

      The funny thing is, this would say off some right wing people without them realizing the irony of getting mad at it.

    Zero fucking sympathy and this is just the beginning of the US collapse. There will be plenty of used trucks and trailers.

    Craig Fuller thought he was voting for business savvy, not economic shock therapy.

    Does he know anything at all about the felon who has left a long trail of failed businesses and can bankrupt a casino three casinos? Trump is doing pretty much exactly what he said he’d do and any CEO that doesn’t know that deserves to be unemployed.

        I thought it was 5 casinos and a resort (with a casino on)…?

        Edit:
        Bankruptcies were…
        1991: Trump Taj Mahal
        1992: Trump Castle Hotel & Casino
        1992: Trump Plaza Casino
        1992: Trump Plaza Hotel (not a casino, just a hotel.)
        2004: Trump Hotels & Casino Resorts
        2009: Trump Entertainment Resorts (casino holding company. FFS, not only did he bankrupt casinos. Which is one of the most lucrative businesses out there, he also bankrupted a company that handles the casinos. How the fuck is that even -legally- possible to bankrupt a company that owns the most lucrative businesses!!!)

        There are numerous other businesses that also failed spectacularly. Plus there ‘businesses’ that were just scams, the university that never was.
        Promises of extensive redevelopment that got ‘put on hold’ after his golf courses got built etc.
