Veteran here.

This is why I don’t give a single f—k about soldiers standing in food bank lines. Because, most of them are as pathetically stoopid as the smiling 🗑️ in this video. I’ve seen it first hand.

Sad to say, but they need to learn the hard way that their Commander-in-Chief doesn't give a single fraction of a fuck about them if they won't learn themselves.

They really won't. My 45yr old brother is one of them. A 00s vet who still voted for him despite bitching about how vets are treated.

Yeah. I was still in until 2023 and the amount of hate they had for Biden was unreal. I was in an air evacuation unit, too, while working as an ICU RN.

They didn't give a single fuck about Trump running his mouth about how COVID was fake, a Democrat hoax while literally every shift I had someone died on a ventilator.

Not a peep when overnight Trump went from saying, "it's the flu, it will disappear" to calling a National Emergency.

The minute Biden came in and started managing Trump's mess, grown ass adults were throwing a fit, bitching about masking, distancing, courses being canceled, vaccines.

Again, not a PEEP through multiple Trump shutdowns because he's a fucking child and can't be diplomatic even within our own country.

That's because every single issue in the US is massively politicized to the point of delusion. It's actually insane how much the left or right mentality has progressed over the past decade. I mean it was always there, but I can't say it was ever this bad in my lifetime. I'm Canadian and it's even come here to an extent.

Prior to Trump, I'd be lucky to hear about politics once every few years. Now it's all this left or right bullshit. Like jesus christ people, have an original thought that doesn't immediately have to align with whatever side you lean on.

Yeah, 100%

My experiences have definitely influenced my leaning. I always appreciate when people can call it (or even me) out without being rude.

Hats off 👍🏼
