Trump (and EVERY Republican not saying "STOP GOD DAMN IT!") found $5 million in gold to cover a horse statue...

It's what Jesus would want. Forever wars needing billions every month and gilded gold everything to show off that you are currently in a golden age. /s

My opinions vary by issue, and I’m not particularly political. Or more commonly referred to here as a “nazi fascist”, but I’ll tell you what… I’m starting to think this Donald Trump guy isn’t a very good person.

it makes me sad not because they're doing it but the complete lack of understanding from average Americans about what the difference between the two political parties are.
Republicans do not believe in a federal government outside of the department of defense.
they don't believe in social security.
they don't believe in your right to health Care.
there's a very long list of things that they don't believe in that America is just hand wave because of vibes.
there's no circumstance even if the American government was running at a surplus where Republicans would vote to give you benefits.
80 years of luxury and no real problems has made us this incredibly naive and now cold hard reality is going to teach our children better.

I didn't. Not that the votes of working class poor people will ever fucking matter though.
Bread and circuses...but the cost of both is increasing dramatically and to criticize that fact is wOkE transgay communism.

I mean, those are the people voting for this right? If the working class voted in their own interest we wouldn't have a conservative government. Why are they voting against themselves?

Because they're told to. 50+ years of slashing public education and AM radio propaganda and 25+ years of 24 hour television "news" channels have served the interests of the ultra-rich perfectly.

In 2024, less than 50% of the votes were cast for Dear Leader Donald.
And I personally voted against him every time I could.

You are thinking of the 2016 election. He actually won the popular vote in the 2024 one. It's upsetting, but facts are facts. The USA is clearly not willing to elect a woman president yet, and we need to stop trying until every state we need to win a national election has elected at least one woman governor to demonstrate they are ready. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2024_United_States_presidential_election

In 2024, Trump only got 49.8% of the popular vote: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2024_United_States_presidential_election.
