I‘m sick of hearing people say this - It‘s exactly what they voted for. What I would prefer to hear them say is WHY they feel they made a mistake. What about Trumps rhetoric then is disconnected from his current deeds?

I suspect the usual reason is that it‘s impacted them personally and they didn‘t think it would. It‘s the reverse of the boy who cried wolf

One of the comments above said they were the parent carrier offering MVNO services to Trump Mobile.

We’ve already seen how willing companies are to stand up to Trump, even if he is in the wrong.

I’m totally sure T-Mobile or the Credit Card company would be willing to defend this in court…

I suspect this is mainly because almost all of the CEOs I’ve met are workaholics, and being “at work” is the only way they can self-validate.

And remember, most of them are dark-personality traits, which explains why they cannot understand why you don’t want to go in

To do otherwise would require an act of cognitive reasoning. This Cheeto-in-charge isn’t capable of that.

I don’t know why people are surprised by this.its not his first time and we all know he’s never read a book in his life.

Couldn’t agree more. The politicians are only outraged as their donors are pissed. They couldn’t give a shit what happens as long as they get re-elected

Not arguing that. Of the broadcasters / big media types, I find the BBC usually one of the better ones. But then I get my news from a wide variety of sources. The Intercept is generally a very good addition to my daily intake.

OK, so next it’ll be the an entrapment operation? And then maybe an assassination?

I mean, if history is our guide…

I am guessing you’ve never watched (say) Fox News in the US?

I’m not saying the BBC is good per se. I’m saying it’s slightly more objective than the rest.

Actually, the World Service will remain accessible, but that’s also not where most people go these days.

And just at a time when the US really needs a decent news service…

I am sure this was discussed at the Starmer - Trump talks as a way to further isolate Americans from the truth.

I guess it’s just Al-Jazeera now…

Don’t forget the press release they can also make saying how nice they are for donating, too…

Please, please, please, let everyone using it have the area code 666…

Religion just makes all of that abuse easier by telling the victim they are “a sinner” before if even happens

To be fair, the word Christian in this sentence is not the one doing the heavy lifting.

Then again, I don’t think I’ve ever seen a poor, powerful Christian

Given that they’re not judged until after they die, aren’t they in this state anyway?

I don’t think there is anyone employed in any capacity today that is less competent than US politicians.

Love this. For years, tax exempt Churches have been praising Donald Trump and his Christofascist cronies. Despite this being forbidden, no one does jack-shit.

And then a few ultra-rich musicians share that they are not 100% on board with Trump’s 2020’s remake of the movie Idiocracy and he’s calling for a “major investigation”?

Someone’s mommy really didn’t love him

Definitively sounds like the kind of thing an incel would say…
