Just more displaying that the rich, and particularly rich people like trump, live in the land of no consequences. They make demands that others pay for, never themselves, and when underlings defy them they become furious. Walmart CEOs are underlings, now.

Yeah. He was clapping back at trump and the republicans a lot which helped boost him to run. Pretty popular. Then he got elected and suddenly started aligning with the republicans on some issues. The consensus since then (at least on Lemmy) is that brain damage causes conservatism.

60 Minutes finally found their spine? They’ve been barely tolerable for a while now with poor reporting. Looks like getting attacked personally was what it took to hit back with actual accuracy.

So release the messages. Not that it matters what they said, absolutely nothing will happen except clicks for whoever reports on it.

Get rid of people who actually know how to do things and replace them with his own tools.

Nothing he won’t take back in 5 minutes.

Consider that surveys also indicate that 30-40% of the US are essentially “Trump No Matter What” people. Maybe some variation depending on the issue.

So 60% isn’t too far off the mark for people not supporting everything trump does.

E: 48.3% of registered voters voted for Harris. Maybe if that extra ~12% of Americans that are unhappy about Trump had gotten off their asses and voted we might be complaining about a crappy Neo-Liberal instead of a straight up fascist takeover.

I’m sure this doesn’t even calculate the downstream damages done when agencies like FEMA can no longer do their jobs effectively. But I’m sure some for-profit enterprise will fill the gaps where possible to screw people out of their money.

Unfortunately a lot of the latino vote comes from the religious, macho, and anti-liberal attitudes they hold. Lots of them are catholic, and even if the republicans are absolutely full of shit when it comes to being “Christian”, their propaganda claiming they are has been very effective. The latter two are in a way perversely tied together. They like macho “strong man” leaders, but unfortunately there are a lot of latin/hispanic countries run by strong man leaders claiming to be liberal leftists that are nothing more than tyrants and authoritarians that wreck their countries. So they vote anti-liberal, associating liberal with tyrants, while supporting yet another “strong man” fascist that will fuck the country up.

*I am not latin, however I worked in a latin country and have worked with several latin/hispanic people and learned what I could about their country, culture and politics, and this is how it was explained to me.

Like anyone believing the lies of their abuser, they’ll just blame the Chinese for hurting them. Just do what the abuser wants, then everything will be ok. Don’t rock the boat.

Shoulda done that, I dunno…a decade ago?

Plenty of older people have ASD. I know a couple personally. They have childhood stories of being beaten, yelled at, difficulty with teachers and peers. They claim to be fine today, but telling horror stories of your trauma as a kid really says otherwise. If ASD was bad enough to be “retarded”, they were kept from society and/or put in State Homes. RFK is ADHD, and the only thing that kept him out of jails due to the untreated effects when he was younger is hs family name and wealth.

Then treat workers with dignity you asshat. Pay them well, give them the days off they need, give them a retirement to look forward to, health care, respect their time off, and STFU about what they do on their time off even if it’s just playing video games.

All the fucked up authoritarians did/do.

Kim Jong, Stalin, Mao, Mirziyoyev, Putin…now Trump.

This president isn’t concerned who pays for anything as long as it isn’t him.

He will tolerate none for himself.

The rest of us can get fucked. STFU about the price of eggs, right? He’s no longer president. He’s gone full dictator. This is all about him.

And ordering it yourself, not ordered by others because you’re popular and had some major achievement or victory.

Full tin pot dictator mode engaged.

“Stories I disagree with.”

Bernie is right about a good many things, as usual.
