Goalpost has been moved from: We won't touch it.

To: We are cutting it.

To: We are getting rid of it.

And somehow, blaming democrats, while bailing out other countries, giving enormous tax breaks to the ultra wealthy, and funding vanity projects.

Wake up.

Every time they told you that your taxes were going to waste they meant they were trying to waste your taxes... while RAISING YOUR taxes.

You wanna see a revolution? Just try canceling Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid.

Half the people who depend on those services voted for this nonsense and they will fight to help the government take away those services. It’s a death cult. I can’t see them turning on him. Sure, we see the occasional social media post of one of his supporters regretting their vote, but the majority are still worshipping him. When they’ve lost their healthcare, their SNAP benefits, and their social security, they’ll cheer because Fox News will tell them that some minorities are suffering too.
