Honestly, the problem here is that even if these folks do suffer under Trump, they'd find a way to blame someone else.
A lot of these people are so indoctrinated they'll never accept their leader could be the one hurting them

That's how it works, at least since I've been alive. Republicans bitch and get elected, fuck up everything. Democrats take power back and spend the whole time fixing shit and getting blamed for the past administration, which leads people to vote Republicans back in. Rinse and repeat
Hey. I've been living in that reality too. I didn't know their were othere that noticed history.
With the polls showing the percentage of people who thought things were better under Trump it is clear that the majority of the voting public are morons who are completely disconnected from reality. They watched him shit on soldiers, lie constantly, stare at the sun during an eclipse, brag about sexual assault, put a rapist on the Supreme Court, call COVID a hoax, get COVID, discourage vaccines, refuse to concede he lost in 2020, instigated a failed coup, say he planned on being a dictator on day 1, show obvious signs of sundowning, say he would use violence against his political opponents, and the 'undecided voters' still decided they would rather have that white guy than a woman who is a minority because 'Trump is more likely to handle a crisis'.
Propaganda based on lies is more effective than reality.
Dude, the average Republican would let Trump shit in their mouth if it meant a Democrat had to smell it, then brag about it on social media and show off the half-digested chunk of corn now stuck in their teeth like a badge of honor.
Don't get me wrong, they're just as fucked as the rest of us, but they're going to love every second of it so long as it hurts the out-groups.
You're not wrong. I'm just saying, I would enjoy the Schadenfreude more if I didn't have to be part of the shit show.
Call me cynical, but I am really rooting for this to happen. The time for being nice has gone. These people chose Trump out of hate towards those who were not like them, so they don't deserve any empathy from me.
It's going to happen to the Ukrainians and Palestinians first, then the LGBTQ+ community, then illegal immigrants, then legal immigrants, then people who get caught supporting Democrats, then the rest of them.
Grabs popcorn, time to watch the shitshow
And it is our duty now to never let them live this down.
Any Nazi you know complaining about a Nazi doing Nazi things the only words out of your mouth should be "shut the fuck up Nazi, you voted for this."
I actually hope that the worst happen to Americans. They're never going to learn until they suffer greatly.
And yes, I know I'm also going to suffer those same consequences but I'm okay with that.
I mean, Covid-19? Our handling of that was a disaster, and it hardened support.
What would be enough of a shock, even theoretically?
WWIII? A US Tiananmen Square? I don't think anything short of nuclear war would cut it, and even then his polls would only fall like 20%.
Trump should absolutely lower the price of evertyhing. Pressure the federal reserve to hike the prime rate to 25%, push us straight into a depression, and watch just how fast the price of eggs and gas plummets.
I mean, lower prices are the most important thing apparently and since the majority of Americans want that at all costs, this strategy should be ok with them, right?
Honestly... yeah. Literally.
Make it even simpler, just send everyone a check with Trump's face on it like during Covid.
Most Americans don't really understand macroeconomics and are just looking at super-market prices for their next meal and trip. And those covid checks worked, people freaking loved Trump for that.

The average voter will blame the Dems for the economic issues that Republicans cause, like they always do.
What if there was a mass shooting every day until we enacted gun control laws that prevented them?
Depends on where it is and how many old white republiQans it takes down. Also, no.
Americans have suffered greatly and chose to elect the cause of that suffering, Republicans.
Look at the states that put in constitutional protections for abortions and then elected Republicans to national office who will pass a nationwide abortion ban. They will never learn.
Yup. My wife and I were taking about just that thing about my old state of Missouri. Brought up my memories of talking to the union guys I worked with there who voted down right to work legislation, voted in even more Republicans into the legislature, and then had a shocked Pikachu conversation when the legislature they voted in immediately tried to pass right to work again.
They're fucked, were fucked, and they'll still blame Democrats.
That's just the thing. Suffering isn't going to do it. People can suffer near-infinitely. Education is what makes people learn, and the keys to the education system in this country were just signed over to the fascists.
Really? We just had two years of inflation due to COVID, was controlled and millions of god damn stupid Americans lost their minds and voted in a literal convicted criminal, rapist, and racist into the oval office with his party controlling the House and Senate. No, the American people need to suffer to learn at this point.
Did we learn the last four years we suffered? Or before that? Or before that?
What countries have you seen that have suffered so much they 'learned a lesson'?
I actually hope that the worst happen to Americans.
Gee thanks a fuckin’ lot.
No problem, some Americans deserve it after voting in a convicted felon, legally found to be a rapist, openly Nazi person into the presidency along with the Senate and House.
Gonna be a lot of content for leopardsatemyface
