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

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?


I don't follow your logic. 56% of white voters voted for Trump. They're idiots as well.

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.


This is naive. People with money will weather it better, and so they will vote for it again in greater numbers. The notion that the low information voters will rise up and do better next time is silly. Life already kicks them in the face, they expect that, they aren't going to blame trump, he's their entertainment.

That is the key lesson of this election and it seems like some of you are missing the point.

If the working class believed that their leaders solutions would help them, that's on them. Democratic policies helped them allot more than what's coming. Since the vast majority of people can't see past their nose the only way they will see they are wrong is when it adversely impacts them personally bring it on.

Exactly how did Democrat open borders help working class Americans?

How did Republicans killing a bipartisan bill on immigration help?

Yes! F them. They can get jobs working for uber and DoorDash. Cut Obama care now! Cut FEMA! Let drug companies charge as much as they can! Let Chinese $20,000 EVs in with no tariffs to break the unions! Kill the college loan programs! Let go! This country needs ditch diggers.

I’ve talked to a lot of MAGA, and they’re really pissed that the libs aren’t getting “owned” and aren’t begging for mercy. They’re really, REALLY pissed that the libs are talking with each other about what businesses to stop supporting. And they are REALLY, REALLY pissed that the libs aren’t even trying to save them from the oligarchs they voted for.

It’s like watching a bunch of little tweens throw a tantrum and threaten to run away, and their parents just calmly open the door and tell them best of luck.

We’re tired, friends. If you want to burn it down, burn it down. We’ll be hanging out in our bunkers, looking after our friends, and shaking our heads every time we see one of your pathetic go fund mes.

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?!?!


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.


+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.


I think besides just voting, we can also organize and volunteer for campaings, help encourage others to vote next time.

I’m starting local by not using or recommending any businesses that I know are red hat owned. Maybe we should start dropping a dime to
prospective clients of theirs.

It’s surprising because this didn’t happened when he won the first time.
Now when it happens the second time,
It is like Trump I hope you will do everything you promised.


Because we’re exhausted and we’ve done what we can. They don’t listen to anyone but him. They think they know everything. Some people just need to fall down in order to learn.

My liberal, moderate, and former republican family members will benefit from his tax breaks but fear for our country and hope it won’t take decades to undo his damage.
