As a Dane, I have always been fucking shocked at the slave-like working conditions Americans work under. They barely get any time off as it is. What do you mean too many holidays?
He’s right. This year, everybody’s gotta work Christmas.
He says on the holiday dedicated to the freeing of the slaves. It’s no coincidence this the one he complains about.
Kind of telling to be complaining about this on a day which celebrates the end of slavery.
The fucker is actively cratering the once biggest economy in the world
and his constituents cheer.
I hope every one of you ‘genocide joe’ objecters who stayed home feel crushing guilt as you watch the country collapse due to your misplaced ideologies
Look, on the one hand, I understand your sentiment. On the other hand, these are the voters you have, blaming them won’t get them to the polls, “teaching them a lesson” won’t get them to the polls. As hard as it may be to primary the Dems who are voting for Trump’s picks, who are voting for genocide, who are even trying to pull Trump towards war right now, it is still easier than getting new voters if you’re not into domestic genocide like Trump.
I understand you’re frustrated with voters, but it’s something that you can’t change. Some people will not vote if the options are “one genocide or two genocides”. You can change the politicians, try to get more people like AOC and Bernie and less people like Schumer though.
They should have the day they voted for. Nothing more, nothing less.
I’d like it if Joe and Kamala felt some of that crushing guilt for giving missiles to the “blowing up Palestinian children with missiles brigade”. Why is your gripe with the people who wouldn’t vote for someone committing genocide and not, you know, the people committing genocide?
Just saying the democratic party could’ve not done that. Could’ve changed course on that at any time. And yet every chance you get you angrily point the finger at people who wouldn’t vote for someone committing genocide, and not the people who wouldn’t stop committing genocide. Make it make sense 😅 the election is over, its done, why is your ire still directed towards people protesting against genocide and not the perpetrators of genocide who literally could’ve stopped at any point, any point whatsoever before the election, and yet never did, never once even came close to doing that.
Good thing that at least the genocide stopped immediately, Palestinians now have their own country, the Ukraine war was negotiated on day one, eggs are a buck a dozen and everybody has Healthcare now.
Here’s why everyone is angry. Seemingly at people like you, I’m assuming, who decided not to vote. Democrats weren’t the ones committing the genocide!! They were absolutely enabling it. Supporting it. Israel was committing the genocide and we weren’t voting for their government. And then, on top of that, it was absolutely evident that Trump would make the genocide worse and not voting against him was effectively voting for him. And that’s on you. You did that. There was a slim chance that Kamala could improve the situation and Palestinian lives. Instead, your lack of vote ensured that wouldn’t happen, ensured that more Ukrainians would die, ensured that Africans would die, ensured that American women would die, ensured that millions of Americans will die if there’s a pandemic. And now instead of just fixing the Democratic party for the future, we’re also fighting fascism. So fucking congrats. Your short-sighted high horse didn’t take a harm reduction strategy and many human lives are now gone. You need to fucking own that.
I agree with you. But also a democracy with only one democratic party is already a failed democracy from my point of view. So not only one party should be fixed as you said, but the whole two party system. I guess…
King Cuck says no more holidays while golfing his presidency away.
See, it’s fine when he goes golfing as he doesn’t directly contribute anything to his or his pals’ wealth. But those workers actually creating wealth, how dare they take days off.
It would be fun to make Trump work a job for 90 days. Nothing major. Maybe answering phones for a help line.
9 to 5 desk job.
Monday through Friday.
If he misses a day he has to “find a new job” and start over.
The dude would fucking CRACK like he was being waterboarded!
And then for evenings and weekends, he has to: do chores around the house, fix shit instead of hiring someone else to do it, pay bills, contact businesses because they billed you incorrectly and you can’t afford to pay the extra hundred they’re charging you, go grocery shopping, meal prep, do taxes, and all the while be a good husband, father, and person who takes care of themselves.
This should be a requirement for holding public office.
Which is why it’s absolutely insane they use aoc’s prior job as a bartender as an insult. Motherfuckers, she’s probably the only person in office who actually understands what it means to work.
Should be a requirement for life. My SO always says everyone should be required to work retail for one week during the holidays. I have to agree.
Yeah, like how he “worked” at McDee’s as a fry cook for 2 minutes and then smiled and waved at people for the rest of his “shift”.
All righty then Ebeneezer…
We have the least mandated PTO in the developed world and a good portion of the underdeveloped world.
Our federal holidays aren’t even days off for most people. Lol
My opinion of him can’t be lower but man I keep realizing how fucking stupid his supporters are with every one of his asinine comments.
Yeah I called Juneteenth getting axed over a month ago and one of my co-workers chimed in that Juneteenth was a Trump holiday. It isn’t, it was signed into law by Biden his first year in office. Trump lied about it while campaigning.
“the workers don’t want it”
The fuck we don’t
That’s one of the fundamental strategies from the trump playbook: just claim the people want something and if it’s repeated loud and often enough, people will start to believe it. Hopefully not for something as egregious as this, but it has worked in the past.
Cadlillac agrees with Trump. Slave labour is what makes America great and the slaves love it apparently.
Imagine being this guy and trying to speak for the working class
All he has to do is to climb on a truck once and half of the country will believe he is a regular Joe. Critical thinking has left the building.
And having legal adults stop and think, “Hmm, maybe this day off thing IS kinda woke.”
Fellas, is it woke to like holidays?

I’d love a few floating “celebrate your bullshit when you choose” days instead.
Not from US, but I’d love to see mine and other multicultural countries have a box to tick when you get a job for what set of cultural holidays you want. No change forms those who celebrate Christmas and Easter (either religiously or traditional cultural reasons), and gives other cultures a chance to enjoy their holidays.
…i’ve worked at a couple of places which offered a floating holiday in lieu of - i think it was thanksgiving friday?..i’ve also worked a few places which only do six: new year, memorial, independence, labor, thanksgiving day only, and christmas…
…most hourly places i’ve worked don’t do any paid holidays; if they’re closed you just don’t get paid…
Doesn’t tourism help the economy? You gotta give people time off to be the consumers you want them to be.
I know nurses and other government employees who wouldn’t want less mandatory holidays off, you’re either off or get holiday pay to work on a Monday!
No one is forcing anyone to be closed on holidays! There’s no law or rule or anything!
Banks don’t have to close and work absolute shit hours because they handle money!
You wanna make more money stay open on holidays.
I work in appliance repair I get the 4th thanksgiving and Christmas and new years.
It sucks. But we make more money.
My sleep deprived brain trying to process the 4th thanksgiving. Like, I only get one and this guy gets 4. I’m going to go to sleep now, you should also invest in some commas. :)
I was thinking he only took Thanksgiving off every 4 years.
life is not created for an economy
One of the country with the least amount of paid vacation in the world. And that’s the hill he decides to climb on. He excels at making himself look increasingly moronic.
The only reason they don’t have a lower amount of mandatory paid vacation is because it is impossible to go below 0.
Don’t give them ideas.
