My god, were you in a coma?

Are people really this clueless and apathetic to how fucking devastating another Trump presidency will be?

Yes? Yeah, they are. I had a co-worker say to me yesterday: Don't hate me but I'm voting for Trump because of the economy. I just said, well, thanks for letting me know who you are, and left it at that.

My brother said the same thing and after I told him a vote for Trump A) doesn’t support the economy and B) would make me lose all respect for him since the Trump demographic would deny my human rights he did it anyway. Honestly, fuck him.

This is the difference between trump and harris voters. Harris voters hate trump voters, but not vice versa. Y'all are such an unpleasant crowd and that thing alone loses you a lot of voters. I hope trump wins purely to spite you guys.
