Ah the schadenfruede is delicious.

The paper straw, Guy Spinelli was sure, would be the way of the future.
After 50 years toiling in the country’s paper mills, the 75-year-old plunked his life savings into creating a “24 hours strong” straw that he manufactures in Woodstock, Illinois, and sells to more than 1,000 restaurants, bars, coffee shops and casinos.
But now, two years in, Spinelli says the party is over. President Donald Trump’s executive order last month calling to “end the use of paper straws” dealt a swift, decisive blow to his business, Boss Straw. Orders have stalled, even though the action only stopped purchases of paper straws by the federal government. Instead of selling $800,000 worth of straws this year, Spinelli fears it’ll be one-tenth of that.

“Our distributors are saying, ‘Everyone’s going back to plastic now because of the president,’” he said. “The president I voted for, the man who says ‘Let’s make America great again, let’s help small businesses grow,’ that man is going to put me out of business.”‘“

Please. Hillary is obviously corrupt and Harris could not communicate at all, the posiion.was way, WAY over her head.

Understood. You MAGAs only understand lies packaged as shiny soundbites.

This is the only country where poor or working class people root for the billionaires.

Cheering while they lose government services so their tax money can be put into a crypto fund owned by billionaires.

It’s like the French Revolution in reverse.

You’re concerned about corruption? What a joke.

Seriously. Name one thing Trump or Musk has done that's not either corrupt or about personal revenge and resentment.

Off the top of my head:

Musk: Cut a bunch of government services and give his own company more contracts.
Given 250 million to a campaign that was going to give him a job decimating the government so his companies could get contracts.

Trump: Had his kids serve in his administration
Paid a porn star to keep silent about his affair to win an election

Add to the above- cut the staff of the offices that were investigating him.

The emphasis on the word “our”…

She's for cutting costs, but fails to realize that she is costs. Cutting costs generally means firing people.

This myth that fed gov is bloated needs to stop. Yes, the fed workforce is big. That's because America is big and guess what, its giving people in WEST VIRGINIA jobs.

Trump voters say: "but, but, but... I didn't think the leopard would eat MY face... I only thought it would eat those other people's faces."

Yeah, especially the black and brown faces.

I love saying, "I told you so...". I said to Hispanic Trump supporters that MAGA won't care if you are a US citizens or not. They will assume you are illegal, and treat you as such.

Told ya so...

“Machado was driving to work Wednesday with two other men when he was stopped by ICE agents near his home, he said.

“They didn’t ask me for any ID,” Machado said. “I was telling the officer if I can give him ID, but he said just keep my hands up, not moving. After that, he told me to get out of the car and put the handcuffs on me."

An agent then asked Machado how did he get into the U.S. and if he was awaiting a court date or if he had a pending immigration case.

"And I told him I was an American citizen," Machado said. "He looked at his other partner like, you know, smiling, like saying, can you believe this guy? Because he asked the other guy, ‘Do you believe him?’”


I was a Trump supporter,” he said. “I voted for Trump last election."

Machado said he thought the Trump administration would "just go against criminals, not every Hispanic looking, like, that they will assume that we are all illegals.”

“That’s what they’re doing, now,” Machado said. “They’re just following Hispanic people.”
