America will get what they voted for. Fucked.

Well, he promised tax breaks. If anyone had the illusion that this would benefit lower income brackets, then congratulations: you have officially become senile. Because it follows the same path he did with the last tax breaks: More money for the rich, less for the rest.

Everyone has equal freedom to be rich, so these tax breaks actually benefit everyone while food stamps only benefit the true leeches of society! /s

I don't know what to think about that. I don't think that low income Republican voters will feel the face eating of the leopards they voted for as what it is.

And I'm not even American, but I can see that this exact same thing is going to happen here in Europe/Germany as well. People will vote for the extreme right parties that have all their propaganda on how they are going to give money to the small people and make the country more secure - and at the same time their political programs and past behavior screams "we will give tax cuts mainly to the ultra rich and never cared about the low income people".

And they still get voted for. We just love us some good old fashioned fascism. Maybe I need to change my mindset and just be like "let's gooooo"

MAGA will blame this on Democrats.

Is this a new, shorter style season or an OG 15 week The Apprentice season?

AI is looping You’re_Fired.DALL-X.quicktime.mov and everyone else has been fired by mid season or flailing to compete offscreen every episode.

There’s a laugh track and commercials.
