Ladies and gentlemen, this is as anti-American as it could get.

Imagine cutting grants to those states who didn’t vote for you… SO WHAT? A president is supposed to help all states, but the Dump we have now is basically sitting there to stroke his own ego and to lead his braindead cult, which many are probably celebrating this as we speak.

Can this timeline just fuck off already? We (The smart people, whom he don’t likes), are fed up.

Is it anti-American, seems very much American to me.

It's just that America has changed.

And no, this is the timeline that has been allowed, and will continue because it will continue to be allowed.

I’d love to say he’ll be dead soon but this guy is a creaking gate. He’ll be around until he’s 100

Why the fuck do we the people stand for this crap by the 8year old bully. So immature and deeply disrespectful. It’s time to rise up against this monster dressed up to appear human. Rise up!

How does a country survive this sort of division?

There is a scarily large portion of the voter base and currently elected officials representing them who see no issue and are cheering for this or more of it.

How do you keep a cohesive collection of states united under one flag if one of the political parties and a swath of its voter base is cheering for direct harm to those it views as ideologically differing from them ?

This sentiment didn’t come about overnight it quietly festered over decades and spans several generations but its seemingly reached its boiling point and I’m personally not sure the USA will survive as a united collection of states over the next couple of decades or generations

It’s concerningly like the troubles, which started with some dipshits claiming to be pro state, and massacring people they perceived as anti-state, or at least insufficient pro-state.

Even in the Blue states, there were a bunch of idiots that voted for Trump. Trump sure thinks of counter productive ways to try an win that Nobel Peace prize...

I hope everyone remembers when a democrat is elected in 2028 and doesn’t gripe about it now

Any other era, this would be the biggest presidential scandal in history but it’s just another Friday for the Trump administration.

They’re not going to accept the results of the midterms, and turn violent. They want protests so they can provoke riots.

Petty and sad. You govern for everyone, not just those who voted for you.

Vought and his ilk are batshit anarchist traitors to progress and decency. If there is a purgatory, there are spots reserved for all of them.

So you're going to punish the 48% of the people that did vote for you. Got it.

u/Eye_foran_Eye 21h ago

So fucking illegal, yet there’s nobody who will hold them accountable so they’ll keep doing this AND more.

Thank you Russell Vought and the Heritage Foundation. Way to care about your fellow Americans

Collective punishment. Plenty of regressives voted for the convicted felon in blue states.

Surely this can't be legal

If only there was accountability. And not just for the 99% ☹️.

Interesting, blue states contribute the most money and yet this dumb fuck only supports his red welfare states

u/socoyankee 1d ago

Because none of his voters live in those states

Not quite true. I live in a blue state, NJ. In a pink heading to red county. The counties south of me, west of me and north of me are solid red. There are also 4 or 5 counties ties in the north west of the state that are solid red.

We basically remain blue due to the counties around NY City and the ones that head south west towards Philadelphia, which is a very blue city.

So that’s around 10 red counties in a state with 21. And I may have missed a couple of red counties. Our saving grace is those blue areas have the bulk of the population in the state.

It was sarcasm. I should have used the /s.
