Back in the fall, my dad said he was voting for Trump (we tried to talk him out of it, but not sure where he landed). I'm at my parent's house this weekend and I just heard him say "someone needs to put a bullet in Trump and Musk."
The Clique of Arrogant Liberal Malcontents (CALM)* of HROT approve of this message.

*Ironic, because they are not calm at all. They are always complaining.

West Virginia - #1 in percentage of federal jobs of all 50 states.

West Virginia - 77% voted for Trump.

Ya’ll are stupid hillbillies getting what you asked for 😂

And all the small, local businesses that rely on the income from those fed employees will now also feel that fallout.

WV's local economies are going to get hurt the soonest and the hardest. Will Dems correctly point out to them that their own GOP leadership has the power to shut this shit down? But simply refuses to.
 
Moral, you seem like a pretty likeable guy.

Except for your politics. In Charles Barkley's words, your politics are turrible.

Chuck was my favorite player growing up and he seems like an all around good guy now. As far as my politics I have this weird belief that it's better to care about the bulk of US citizens in the US and not just a handful of uber wealthy weirdos. It just feels really right to be in the opposition of the Michael Saylor, Peter Thiel, Elon Musk, and other billionaire weirdos. I'm confident that being in opposition to those guys is the correct path to take.

Has there ever been a scenario where oligarchs of a nation increased their power and control over a nation that it ended up more beneficial to regular assholes? We already won this battle against oligarchs once before, and stuff was really awful for people back then. It was pretty much work for nothing in awful positions until you died in your 30s or 40s. Rich people were completely okay with that model. They didn't have a single care about the atrocious work or living environments of people, and they actively opposed any people that tried to push back against that monstrous system.

You are asking that MAGA bro to understand history, which by extension means they have to be semi-literate.

You are probably wasting your time, but I appreciate your optimism that you can sway one of them.
 
If you don't think there are some very, very wealthy people who are liberals, you're delusional.

Why would a super wealthy person be a liberal? Because they have much more influence over the government than most, due to their wealth.

Therefore they want the government to be bigger and more powerful.

You non-super wealthy libs also want the government to be bigger and more powerful.

Interesting.
Holy shit man. You really believe this. Talk about delusional.



Tell me something. Those extremely wealthy Rs, how many donate their wealth to society to help make it a better place?
