This infuriates me more than anything else, but the Republicans were very clear on their intentions and were elected democratically.

It sucks that we don't have a legit opposition party that actually cares about the poor and working class.

During the campaign Trump repeatedly said he wouldn't mess with Medicare, Medicaid, or Social Security. Towards the end of the campaign he stopped saying Medicaid. But just last week he was asked about cuts and said he wouldn't touch Medicaid.

I guess it's all true because Congress is going to cut all three.

A bunch of trump admin people wrote project 2025 with the heritage foundation. Trump himself is a well known liar and was under criminal prosecution.

We knew it would be tax cuts for the richest, again. At this point its still surprising that people are dumb enough to believe his words over his actions..

The amount of people I know that said they were voting Trump for "economic reasons" is far too high.

I know they make less money than I do, so they're definitely not the ones benefitting from Trumps economic plans. The absolute buffoons.

What the fuck did people think would happen to all the cost savings that doge is supposedly doing? You think that money was just going to sit in government bank accounts or something?

Some, forget which other than Meidas Touch, said that was exactly what the "cuts" were going to do, pay for Trumps tax breaks

Who could have possibly foreseen this hilariously predictable outcome?!
