I wish I knew someone who was disappointed. The only two people in my life that aren’t Trumpers are my daughter and her fiance. Everyone else thinks that gas will get back to $1/gallon and food prices will return to pre Covid levels on Jan 21.
The whole thing is going to look fucking stupid once EVs take off. Although I bet Trump will do everything to slow that once elected (even with Musk in his ear).
Sheeeesh, sorry to hear you’re living deep in the red. Proud of my state for being a spot of blue in a sea of red, but hot damn that election map was bleak.
It’s so wild how absolutely bonkers the political climate has become just in my lifetime. There was some real optimism when I got to vote for Obama as an 18 year old. Would’ve never seen all this coming…
I still think musk had something to do with it and not in a strictly legal way. Would explain how he has managed to stay close to the orange for so long unchecked.
The thing is we had Obama and dem control of the legislature and we still didn’t get universal healthcare, or even basic shit like minimum wage indexed to inflation. It’s no wonder low-information voters think democrats suck at “the economy”.
Time to start beating your wife, she’s actively asking for it. If she’s your ex make sure to remind her that project 2025 wants to make her existence illegal.

I think it’s revealing that apparently as long as gas and eggs are okay, the country falling completely apart is secondary (to the voting majority).
Gas is the big one. I don’t hear as much complaining about food where I am.

My theory is that they will institute a tax on old products so that buying new items is the same or cheaper than buying new.

Unfortunately, all this is pretty much a backlash to that event.

What will they think when those things don’t happen? Some conspiracy shit?
Cognitive dissonance - They’ll find some way to blame it on Biden/Harris/Newsom/Pelosi.
“Thanks, Obama!”
Biden will be taking the blame for all the problems over the next couple of years.
And Trump will take credit for the good policies that Biden implemented, if he manages to not fuck it up.
It’s those brown people in Iran! We better start another 20 year invasion!
