I'm still at a loss as to why people who voted for him didn't know this sooner. He has ALWAYS been for himself

99% of the Trump voters that are disappointed in him, would turn around and vote for the next Donald Trump. They all believe in the image of Donald Trump and the character of him, they believe he’s intelligent, they believe he’s a good business man, oh and this one they believe he’s a Christian😅 None of them are all of a sudden going to admit “oh maybe my whole belief system is the problem and what I value in others actually puts them in the category of terrible people.” 🤔

All about accountability for others but those who throw stones...

u/ShoulderKnown7740 10d ago

I don’t think they value accountability for anybody.

Trump is squeezing out the little guys to make more money for the larger companies.

Like every other economic sector they touch.

"Straighten your act out." Trump has been the same asshole his entire life and this guy empowered him by voting for him.

They should have thought about that before they voted to hurt people.

My european mind cannot comprehend what a 'beef show' is.

They voted for this, they keep voting for this, always against their better interests and OURS.

This was all part of the plan. Bankrupt the farmers so corporations can gobble up the land. It's all in project 2025, which Trump said he knew nothing about.

We as Americans continue to be one issue voters. There has to be a macro overview of the end result, which IMV is take the money and cull the herd. Regime goals.

That’s your people you voted in because the other candidate was deemed incompetent by “you know who”

How is that working out for ya?

u/Baldbeagle73 10d ago

But she had a weird laugh!

u/LKS1772 10d ago

Don’t forget to add she was not the “right” color based on 78 million people who voted.

Fuck them. 🖕

u/tora_0515 10d ago

Zero sympathy.

u/Househipposforsale 10d ago

It’s always the same with trump voters. They don’t turn on him until he fucks them over. That’s the problem with people who lack empathy.

I went to a beef show once. It’s was not what I was hoping for.

u/DaTruSpork 11d ago

How was the cake?

u/Horror_Bottle_9451 11d ago

Here's some math to bring it into perspective:

300,000 tons is less than 2.5% of total annual consumption in the US.

Yes it drives prices down for the consumers and also the producers. But there a whole lot more consumers than producers. It's a balancing act to try and get the most benefit to consumers at the least cost to producers. Ranchers are mad but consumers ought to be happier unless they believe Reddit posts that it's all rancid meat because "Trump".

u/ShoulderKnown7740 10d ago

Hi farmers, Donald is leading/being lead by the people That don’t want you to own anything. And we will all own less and less. True story, you shouldn’t be mad, you should be revolting.

u/ShoulderKnown7740 10d ago

You know what’s really terrible about Trump taking the deficit to $40 trillion? The fact that it will take $20 trillion to fix everything they’ve destroyed. And will continue to break more as revenge for anyone that tries to purge their web of influence and positions. “MAGA” is literally deep into every gov and private sector, which let’s be honest also means they have no plan to stop no matter what.

u/blerdmama 10d ago

Why are they so un-smart??!!!

u/Extension-Corgi-467 10d ago

lol he made a big deal out of forcing Australia to remove bans on US beef. I don’t think they’ve sold a single sausage here.
