  • Because the people who voted for him think it’s a good thing that he’s cancelling those things. They want him to dismantle “big government” because they’ve been mislead into believing that the reason they’re struggling financially is somehow because of wasteful government spending.

    You can’t attack Trump by criticising him for things people want him to do.

    The people who voted for him aren't going to change their minds regardless, or they'll decide we just need someone even worse. I want to see some fucking fighting (not physical fighting - some fire from these democrats!), not finger wagging. We had four years of fucking finger wagging when we should have been locking him up.

    That all of Trump’s promises will amount to nothing, and that their financial struggles are only going to get worse under him.

    I'm thinking they are going to get that message pretty quick now with all federal aid and grants cut. It will still be Biden's fault to them, like the folks who went to their death from covid swearing it was a hoax.

    Sorry, at this point I could give a shit about what Trump's voters think or whether they turn on him. Sure, it will be satisfying when it happens, but they aleady absolutely fucked us all, and I no longer even think I have an idea where the bottom is going to be. Fuck them. Whatever embers of empathy I may have tried to preserve for them all these years is gone. They have fucked themselves, they have fucked the rest of us, and barring a literal miracle I doubt anyone over 40 has much chance of seeing things righted within their lifetime.

  • I'll go a step further. Motherfucker cancelled all federal grants and aid, AMONG OTHER acutely awful executive orders.

    How about Democrats "slam" Trump for dismantling our government and actively harming our nation from the first moment he was inaugurated? The time to fight about egg prices ended Nov 07.

    Let me see some of this energy Dems! (and from someone other than AOC and Bernie. WTH is wrong with the rest of you!)

  • Right now it seems he's getting anything he wants. (gestures at OP) I hope there's an end to that, but until then, yeah, I must angrily conclude, dude gets shit done. (Using the most reprehensible methods, and with shitty outcomes, but that's what his base voted for, so I'm quite sure they have few complaints right now.)

  • I think those lemmings have a deficient understanding or appreciation of the necessity for the rule of law.

    When the necessity for the rule of law is extended to the president of the united states and our rising oligarch class, I'll clutch my pearls about circumventing it for Luigi Mangione.

  • Oh yeah I saw that headline when I got up this morning and it made me happy to see. But talk me down the tree a little further if you can.

    In the current state I don't see how it matters. I'm glad they did it. I appreciate the gesture, and I think it was an important one. But I feel like we're all still pretending that laws and norms matter when clearly they no longer do for Trump and anyone under him.

    What exactly stops him from having these people forcibly removed and/or their access to government resources cut, their paychecks held, their clearances revoked, etc? Who is in charge of those things that can stand up to that?

  • Well, if we still have a nation four years from now, someone who cares about consumer protection might do something about that.

    I'll try hard not to become a troll posting this under every headline, but that's my reaction to just about every article now of this sort.

    Company, Republican Politician, or Billionaire does something clearly unethical and probably illegal, which is officially noted and reported on.

    Yeah, and? It's not a non-wealthy citizen, a democrat, or an entity targeted by maga as woke, so we can be sure the impact of this information will be most likely zero.

    We are on the stupidest, bitterest timeline.

  • Conservatives didn't forget, they spent four years waiting to bring him back.

    The middle though...

    In my entire life I have never been as free with "I told you so" as I'm going to be for the next four years, possibly longer than that.

    If I end up dead in a ditch due to civil war, my final breath will be used to curse Trump, Republicans, and every fucker who brought this on.
