Who could have possibly foreseen this hilariously predictable outcome?!
"Well the 60yr old man that blew his body out working hard jobs to raise his family that are now unable to buy homes despite graduating college with tech degrees, can just rejoin the work force with his withering body and broken psyche." -Evil probably
America will get what they voted for. Fucked.
I didn't vote for this everyone needs to stop putting us in a box...many of us did not want this and we're stuck with these jerks. Alot of Americans are good people we just got taken over. America needs help from other countries.
I have no sympathy for anyone who ever voted Trump, but the point has to be made that until voting is mandatory and they actually hold genuine primaries that allow voters to have a say, it's taking things too far to blame every American for this outcome. The last few presidential elections have been laughably thin pretenses of democracy.
Time to fuckin do something
Well, he promised tax breaks. If anyone had the illusion that this would benefit lower income brackets, then congratulations: you have officially become senile. Because it follows the same path he did with the last tax breaks: More money for the rich, less for the rest.
Everyone in America is a temporarily embarrassed millionaire/billionaire. This tax breaks will surely benefit me some day
Everyone has equal freedom to be rich, so these tax breaks actually benefit everyone while food stamps only benefit the true leeches of society! /s
A rising tide lifts all boats. Not really on me if you didn't buy your own boat.

I love that metafor. Very fitting for the current times.
MAGA will blame this on Democrats.
That’s $4.5 trillion that will trickle down to all of us, any day now, just you wait, and wait, and wait, and wait, and wait…
I don't know what to think about that. I don't think that low income Republican voters will feel the face eating of the leopards they voted for as what it is.
And I'm not even American, but I can see that this exact same thing is going to happen here in Europe/Germany as well. People will vote for the extreme right parties that have all their propaganda on how they are going to give money to the small people and make the country more secure - and at the same time their political programs and past behavior screams "we will give tax cuts mainly to the ultra rich and never cared about the low income people".
And they still get voted for. We just love us some good old fashioned fascism. Maybe I need to change my mindset and just be like "let's gooooo"
Left parties are also to blame for this. I always vote for the left party but lately I am not OK with about 70% of their agenda.
A rising number of people are concerned about immigration but left parties just ignore that and pushes for more immigration.
Immigration causes lot of issues. You see many immigrants pick pocketers in touristic areas, you hear a lot of crime cases involving immigrants, many prostitutes are immigrants and are exploited. It is maybe few but why adding more crimes when we already have enough of it.
Many immigrants rely on welfare and are eligible as some immigrants do not allow their wives to work and having multiple children is a norm. Left parties always vote against any restrictions.
They push salaries down and causes unemployment. Many do not want to work on underpaid jobs like in restaurants. But immigrants are OK to take those jobs and push salaries down.
So people see that left parties are doing nothing for this, left parties do not want upset their base which contain a lot of people from immigration. So people go to right and far right parties.
People, ALL people, including you, should be free to live and work where they please.
Good morning everyone!
Is this a new, shorter style season or an OG 15 week The Apprentice season?
AI is looping You’re_Fired.DALL-X.quicktime.mov and everyone else has been fired by mid season or flailing to compete offscreen every episode.
There’s a laugh track and commercials.
Maybe a shortened season without writers during the strike. Pretty sure we'll see Snooki in a cabinet position before it's all said and done.
