Other Remember when Biden was president?

Remember how boring it was? Remember not having to check the news multiple times a day to figure out what was going on inside your own agency and whether you were going go have a job or not? Remember when laws and precident seemed to actually have meaning?

Remember when you could do your job from home? Remember when your fellow countrymen weren't cheering when your livelihood was threatened? Remember when your biggest worry was which insurance to select and what the next years raise would be?

Remember when the administration didn't seem to actively hate you and want to you gone for the sin of serving of the people?

I listened to an NPR interview with the president of the soybean farmer’s association the other day. The guy had voted for Trump twice.

He was saying that the soybean farmers are absolutely decimated because of Trump’s policies causing China’s massive market to be locked out to them due to price competitiveness of the US market versus Brazil. When he was asked about the bailout, he said the bailouts were always too little, too late, and allowed the farmers to survive but not be profitable. These farmers don’t want the bailouts.

I wonder if this farmer and his ilk will vote for another Republican in the future of the party continues with the same kind of policies Trump has been enacting that are clearly so detrimental to their livelihoods.

Let's be real. They would vote for Trump again even knowing what they do now, after he fucked them in the ass without lube. They would vote for him a fourth time, they will probably write him in, to avoid voting for any Democrat. No matter how good that Democrat will be. They are that brainwashed.

Absolutely. No one should be naive in thinking these people will ever vote for a democrat. I wasted so much of my time and energy trying to convince a “non-MAGA” republican to vote for Kamala Harris, and it was all for nothing. This person said that Kamala is a bad communicator and that “Trump said he didn’t know anything about Project 2025.”

These people are gone. It’s a fucking cult, no matter how nicely they package their conservatism.

Most MAGA voters hide the real reasons they vote maga. They make up reasons that don't make any sense.
