All I can think, is that they are a special kind of stupid. I remember articles like this from trump voters in 2020, and it never ceases to amaze me that here they are complaning about getting fucked by him, exactly the way he said he'd fuck them, and exactly the way he fucked them last time... And this is their 3rd time voting for him. I have no doubt that when trump runs again, they'll vote for him a 4th time.

to be fair, the other candidate had an annoying laugh!

“Of course I’ll vote for Trump, I mean what’s the alternative? free healthcare? Clean air!? Pfft”

With the datacenters sucking up all our water, at least I can drink their tears

Oh no, the political party I voted for opposes my special issue, but I had to vote for them instead of the party that supports it because I lack awareness and am gullible.

And I call that “common sense”

“I prefer common sense in the middle,” he said.

Liar liar pants on fire!

FFS look who you voted for

Fuck these people, they are scum and deserve exactly what they are getting, and more.

I can see how someone could rationalize voting for Trump in '16. The decision making is easy to follow, everything is fucked, vote for the outsider candidate who wants to usher in real change.... It's the Bernie bro turned trump voter theory. I don't agree, but it makes sense of you squint.

But voting for this disgusting human shaped piece of dog shit in 2020 means you voted for fucking exactly this. You voted for the rapist. You voted for the conman. You voted for the tariffs. You voted for Putin and Elon and Nazis all around. Fuck you.

I hope these people die in a house fire

[–] MedicPigBabySaver@lemmy.world 0 points 12 hours ago

I squinted almost shut in '16, plus, I hate Hillary "Spineless Cunt" Clinton.

“You cannot fire our firefighters. You cannot fire our trail crews. You have to have selective logging, and water restoration, and healthy forests,” Zink said. “People in Washington D.C., on the West Coast, East Coast — they don’t understand what that means to us out here.”

Meanwhile people from all those places yelling at him that Trump will cut all those things and to not vote for that

[–] brax@sh.itjust.works 1 points 9 minutes ago

Imagine thinking Republicans won't cut public services... Fucking stupidity off the charts.

"These coastal people just don't understand" 50% of the human population live within 100 miles of a coast. States are about 200 miles wide.

Except it’s exactly what you voted for.

“I prefer common sense in the middle"

Then don't vote on the one commited to dragging the Overton window further away from the middle.

[–] Rhoeri@lemmy.world 10 points 1 day ago

I’m going to call bullshit. They’re just sheep that got away from the shepherd. They’ll return to the flock the moment they’re threatened to have to deal with the reality of their decisions.

Fuck them.

No remorse for wha they did, and no regret for what they deserve.

Well, it is actually. Literally everyone told you this would happen. The problem isn't that you "didn't vote for this," the problem is that you voted for something that never existed. Ask any Trump supporter what they voted for and 8 out of 10 times they have made up their own reason that specifically fits their viewpoint and even contradicts what Trump himself said he would do in most circumstances. In their anger towards "liberals" and "woke" they basically created their own idea of what Trump was based on nothing but vibes and then voted for that idea as if it was what he actually stood for. It's a religion and based on faith, not a political party. Like when "Christians" make shit up from the bible to fit their arguments even when it doesn't make any sense.

Elon literally held up a chainsaw!

Wow another lying maga that’s so surprising wow crazy he can’t say a single true statement

Like a witches curse he can only lie

[–] Jaysyn@lemmy.world 9 points 1 day ago

You literally voted for this. You were warned. The Pedophile himself told you. You didn't listen.

[–] PugJesus@piefed.social 37 points 1 day ago

Don't worry, they'll still vote for Trump's preferred candidates in the midterms, and then for the third term in 2028, not that the vote count will actually matter.

[–] Treczoks@lemmy.world 27 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Just ask yourself: Where did you put your cross on the ballot paper?

If your vote was for Trump, well, you know that this is exactly what you voted for.

[–] devolution@lemmy.world 28 points 1 day ago

If you called yourself a conservative over a Republican, then you definitely voted for this you fascist white bread low education inbred dipshit.

[–] SnarkoPolo@lemmy.world 26 points 1 day ago

You got exactly what you voted for, Brown Shirt. Enjoy it. America is Great Again.

That's fine but a whole lot of people in the South don't give a damn about this so you're kinda on your own, dude.
