Fuck these idiots. Reaping what they sowed.
The problem is we (Americans) are all reaping what a small group of people sowed. Some of us didn't vote for this. Most people didn't vote at all. I wish it was mandatory like in Australia. I want my voting sausage.
I wish there was a way to spin up an IRL virtual machine and show Americans what the two presidencies would look like in real time, and make it compulsory to watch. Then let people vote on Nov 5th. And make it required.
It fucking sucks when people don't vote, and we end up with evil idiots who trash our country, our climate, and our people. Not to mention our allies and our economy. It's so preventable.
Yeah I’m not stupid, that isn’t lost on me.
I’m just glad they are suffering too. Probably considerably more than i am, tbh.
Trump is doing exactly what he said he would do and the obvious outcome happens, but they still don't see through his bullshit not matter how many times it bites them in the ass.
Well, except the things that would have been nice. Like bringing down prices, ending wars, not being a little bitch in the white house.
He promised that he would bring down prices by putting tariffs on everything. So you can check that one off the list. The tariffs are in place. And he promised to end the war in Ukraine by bullying them into surrendering to Russia, and finishing the genocide in Palestine, so you can check off ending wars as well.
The only one he didn't promise was to not be a little bitch in the White House, because we all knew that's exactly what he was gonna be. We had historical evidence of that.
Even past that, the market has been on a historic bull run. The NASDAQ is up around 150% over five years. Unprecedented gains, even with the COVID dip.
What kind of whiny bullshit is this about a 15% decline? You're holding equity with a 100+ p/e. You took a bunch of leveraged risk and came out ahead, but you're still not happy because... you're not a trillionaire like Daddy Musk yet? Take your fucking profits and back away from the roulette wheel, you degenerates.
Right? Fuck around and find out. Damn them all for setting us on this path of this hellscape they set us all upon. If you're MAGA or didn't vote at all I don't have the sympathy or empathy left to give a shit what happens. The leopards are going to eat so many faces the next four years they're going to die of obesity.
