I’m all in for Trump randomly deporting immigrant citizens, sending a mob at the capitol, breaking the lives of millions of the minorities and the poorest, being best friend with a pedophile, insulting our allies and threatening annexion of other coutries, but crashing The Market??? That’s not ok. He’s suppose to help ME make money by exploiting others, if I have to lose money it’s not fair!! ------- What a stupid broken evil country.
This is pretty much what I get from that. Not a shred of empathy.
That’s the conservative MO, in my experience. Don’t care until it personally affects them. That’s why they’ll beat their chests about the sanctity of marriage, but get divorced. Or talk about protecting life, until their mistress needs an abortion.

It’s too late. Can’t trust him again.
If only there were signs before hand. 🙄
Well yeah all that terrible shit happened, but now it’s
eaffecting ME!Edit: Grammar bee hard

Just insane this is happening.
Um, this was a campaign promise. He promised to raise tariffs, and the natural reaction of the market to new tariffs is to drop. This isn’t surprising, this is expected, and Trump said as much.
If you didn’t want that, you shouldn’t have elected Trump. Simple as. I didn’t want that, so I didn’t vote for Trump. Simple as.
I find this baffeling. Multiple people, on different topics did disagree with his campaigns promises, and voted for him against their best interest. (Farmers for exemple) Their justification ? “He won’t do it”. Are you telling me you are voting for someone who promises to do things, in the hope that he does all the other things but the one that would negatively impact you ? REALLY ?!
The knuckleheads all thought that the other countries would be paying the tariffs because they didn’t understand how tariffs work.
Even if you expected some tariffs the degree and arbitrariness have exceeded almost every expectation. Charitably you could have assumed he meant he would implement tariffs in a way that makes some kind of sense, you know, warning well in advance so businesses can actually plan for them.
It’s kind of amazing the market hasn’t dropped even more now that the administration has revealed that it has no guard rails guiding Trump’s dementia fueled decisions and that he doesn’t give a fuck about wall street at all.
Anyone charitably assuming anything of him is either a complete fool or complicit. This is exactly what they voted for, whether they admit it or not.
There are several fake text generators so I don’t trust any ‘screenshots’ with only one timestamp, especially one for 1am :/ why are you both up at the same time to exchange messages that fast
I can believe exchanges like this are happening, I’m just also fully aware that people like making up fake Everybody Clapped posts too, and this strongly looks like one of them
Sorry this doesn’t fit into your worldview gramgram but some people stay up past 8 without issues.
I guess it’s because when I’m up at 1am, I’m actually doing something, like playing video games, out with friends, or working on a project. It would take me a couple minutes to reply, and create a new timestamp.
It’s less likely a person is just sitting at home on their phone at 1am, ready to text back immediately. Or a person reading the news at 1am and deciding to text a friend about it. That sounds so… hollow.
Its possible, because boring night shifts and depression and phone addiction and increased lonliness etc etc, but imo its still likely that the texts are fake and the person who made it was too lazy to add another timestamp. The single timestamp is the biggest tell for fake texts because people don’t think it add more, but IRL they’re very normal.
Part of internet literacy has to be skepticism, because it’s very easy to generate fakes. If you believe something is true/real just because you agree with it, your worldview will be easily manipulated.
Typical conservative. They don’t care until it affects them directly. Enjoy suffering the consequences of your choices dipshit.
Republicans and Democrats in the 2026 and 2028 elections:
Republican: Never thought I’d die voting side by side with a lib-tard.
Democrat: What about side by side with a comrade?
aw
But also, fuck these people. Didn’t matter that innocent citizens with no charges are getting black bagged and tossed in cells. Didn’t matter families were getting ripped apart and deported. Didn’t matter that the bigotry against trans people has ramped up to being codified in congressional fucking rules levels. No it took an economic nightmare scenario personally affecting the livelihoods of these people for them to wake up AT ALL. Like fine, welcome to the fucking real world. You’re still a piece of shit in my eyes now start making better fucking choices, moron.
Well most of that stuff was happening under genocide joe too. And kamalacaust promised to continue. Didn’t matter to the libs. They attack people for pointing this out.
So they won’t be voting Democrat.
You know they won’t.
It’s performative BS.
The fact that they are still good friends with someone that actively claims(/claimed) to have supported Trump is damning for that tweetist.
And what am I supposed to take away from this? Cool, they’re fine with racism and sexism but the economy is sancrosanct. Who is this appealing to/performing for?
One of the pillars that the republicans keep claiming is that they will sell everyone out for the sake of businesses, and therefore, obviously, they will make the numbers go up better than those democrats that will sap money out of the economy to pay for useless stuff like basic human needs to those that need it.
Now you have a republican president who has:
- Not cut any taxes
- Imposed way more taxes
- Tanked the markets
- Tanked so many government benefits
It was already provably false (going back 30 years, the only prolonged ‘numbers go down’ have been both of Bush Jr’s terms and Trump’s second term), the best republican term was Trump’s first and it’s no better than any democrat term for the past 30 years.
So there are some people who are either fine with the racism and sexism (or don’t believe/in denial about that as made up) for the sake of better personal financial fortune, and democrats have never convinced those folks that republicans actually don’t have any track record to support that superstition. Trump has at least proven that he isn’t good, and worse he is allowed to unilaterally act by a broader party that is afraid to conflict him.
Looking at the front page of Fox News, those people don’t care. They just want to be fed lies and told losing money is good for the country.
Thank you for your service.
On each side people are voting who they believe is the “lesser evil”. A third party doesn’t really need much popularity to start a landfall
