I am talking to a lot of Democrats who want Trump to succeed.

Luigi Mangione is American citizen and he killed Sullivan
in cold blood. The two supposed assassination attempts on Trump were Americans citizens. I bet there are more American thieves, murderers and drug addicts than illegal immigrants who simply want a better life and whose work ethic is a hell of a lot better than US citizens.

When you are paying $5.00 for one apple then your teeny tiny little mind might understand that illegal immigrants kept the food supply going.

DP. Maybe it’s not a good thing that we’ve been depending on exploitation of migrants to keep food prices low. Maybe it would be good if we shifted to a where we spend more on food and less on Made In China and pay living wages to agriculture workers.

Sure but you can't just flip that switch.

What you’re saying is you’re a Trump supporter because you and yours will benefit. Forget about the mythical people who will suffer, they vote for sport, if they vote. Things getting worse won’t change their loyalty, it won’t change yours. Sure you voted dem, but you weren’t in a swing state you knee you’d get the benefit of Trump all the same.

DP I do not think there will be these huge benefits with Trump. He has only promised to raise taxes, round up migrants(legal and illegal) and deregulate everything. Trump has no tax cut plan. I do not know where people are getting that a huge tax cut is coming. In a deregulated stock market the retail investors are the mark. If the markets burn down like in 2008 there will not be a bailout. Could you imagine Trump dealing with a market crash like 2008? I just know if I feel pain(which I think is going to happen) the vast majority will feel a lot more pain.

I just do not care about them. I do not feel a part of this country anymore. I certainly do not care if Trump bust doors down in Miami to drag out the 1 in 4 illegals in living in there. They voted for it. I do not want money going for hurricane relief or any federal spending in red states. The Republicans want to destroy the federal government and end the transfer of wealth around the country. Do it. There was a reason Appalachia was poor and not developed. There are reason people did not build on the coast. There are reasons why you need locks on the Mississippi.

This “oh everything is going to be great with markets” is herd mentality. We have been on a long run. People think the markets can only go up. A correction is due. Trump is going disrupt the world’s economy which is based in free trade. Taxing Canada and Mexico equals thousands of jobs loses within a few weeks and increased prices. The commercial property market are in a slow motion crash and it’s all highly leveraged.

Look at this little gem.

Republicans reportedly ready to cut Medicaid funding to pay for Trump plans
House and Senate Republicans float ideas to pay for Trump’s immigration crackdown and to fund tax cuts

There will be a lot of pain coming and it is not on me to make things less painful. Specially for the people who are going out of their way to give me the finger.

This is very well put.

Mostly I think people with money will weather this better. But it will be a crisis for sure and it will be ugly.

Trump and MAGA are so clueless about how the global economy works that it is painful to watch. And isolationism has never served our economy and standard of living well.

Biden oversaw incredible economic growth over the last few years that allowed Americans the luxury to sit back and worry about a minuscule number of transgender athletes. Biden had the United States positioned to be an economic behemoth in the green economy, which is coming as sure as the combustible engine did a century ago. Trump is destroying it out of spite.

None of us will benefit from this but MAGA apparently doesn’t want to listen to experts and would prefer to learn it personally.

Are people SO in love with their religion they'd vote for this? It's not rocket science. Biden did well with what he was left.
I just can't fathom how people can be so stupid.

I’m putting my family first and making decisions to protect them, our own wealth and future. America chose this.

It's shocking how many of you really think money will protect you from the "downfall of democracy".

Agreed. I personally know people who were highly educated professionals and had to flee Serbia - they never recovered financially and they lost everything they had worked for in addition to their country.

Exactly. I am well educated and have worked my a** off to obtain a high-paying job in my industry, but it took me a long time to get there and it is and has been under attack by the right wing for a while. Just when I thought I'd be on a good path, it all goes to hell. And I am deeply afraid of the prospects for my kids.

It is what it is. The working class will see for themselves whether Trump's policies economically help them. Then they'll decide again in 2026 and 2028. Let's see what he has in store.

DO YOU GET THAT NOT EVERYONE WHO VOTED D IS RICH?!?!

ARE YOU TRULY THIS IGNORANT?!?!

I will continue to vote for what I believe is best for the majority and for society.

Screw you, BTW, you self-involved jerk. If you are a D, you are part of the reason the party has gone to hell.

DP, yes we get that, obviously. But the GOP holds both houses of congress, the supreme court and the white house. What, exactly, do you want anyone to do. IMO, the idea that Trump and the GOP should get all of their agenda through as quickly as possible so voters have a chance to respond in 2026 is fine, as long as the elections in 2026 are valid. By 2028, unless the Dems retake the House and Senate, none of this will matter.

Vote Republican if you don't like the Democrats. They will screw you over but you're entitled to vote for them.

45% of Hispanics voted for Trump.

When I told a friend who is a liberal democrat about this, he said the 45% who voted for him are idiots.

Now who is the racist? Trump or the liberal democrats who have no respect for voters?

+1. I already spent 4 years losing my mind over Trump, not doing that again. There is literally nothing that can be done right now so I’m just blocking the noise out, and yes, I am lucky that I can do that. It sucks that not everyone is as insulated. There’s still nothing I can do but vote D in the midterms, and I will do that.
