This person will never understand how much Donald Trump despises them.

u/dismayhurta 1d ago

Trump is so angry his fan club are the biggest losers. The shittiest people. Poor people. The lamest “celebrities.” The blandest athletes. Loser tech billionaires people make fun of.

No one genuinely cool likes him.

u/steamboat28 16h ago

Poor people.

No one genuinely cool...

I'm poor. Does that make me inherently uncool?

It's harder to climb a mountain when you can't afford equipment which makes it easier. Not that it isn't doable, but you are at an inherent disadvantage.

I hope so. Just making sure we're not doing that weird libshit thing where we refuse class solidarity bc poor people are icky and not for real reasons.

Not to a decent person. But to Trump? Yes. Wear that as a badge of honor.

u/Beautiful_Reporter50 9h ago

Did you vote for Trump? That would make you inherently cool. We are poor right now because I'm disabled and we're only on one income. However we both voted for Kamala because she actually had a plan as opposed to concepts of a plan. As a Democrat I was obliged to watch all of his insane rallies - I don't know how anybody could vote for that

Also theyre like "That trickle down economics is gonna splatter on my face any day now!"

It's been 40 years since Reagan said that in the 80s. No trickle down yet.

Well yeah, rich get richer... we common folk not so much.

u/chene313 1d ago

Accurate. I live close to a rural area where there are many houses just like this one. It’s the funniest thing because they kept the signs up for a month and a half after the election until Trump came out and said he wasn’t lowering prices. 90% of the signs are gone now 🤌🏻😂

u/crimsoncat05 1d ago

Interesting observation… I live outside St Louis MO and the rural areas around here had a heckuva lot of DJT (I refuse to write his name) signs in yards, too… I haven’t paid attention lately, though/— o tried not to see them. I will have to drive around and see- there might not be as many signs around here now, either.

Conservative social media: Dirty, nasty, criminal immigrants - they'll steal your job, hurt your daughter, take your money and probably kill you while practicing their awkward, foreign social habits!

In another corner of conservative social media: Musk sets the stage to increase H1B visas (labor immigrants) so they can get 'good engineers' to build great "American" companies (without all those messy US wage expectations and obtrusive labor protections!) Just ignore the parenthetical to avoid cognitive dissonance intruding on continuing conservative adoration.

Them: we're doing great!

u/canada432 1d ago

Driving through rural Missouri about 2 years ago was exactly this. Everywhere. The most poverty-stricken people living in literally collapsing trailers and shacks, all completely decked out in Trump signs and flags. I saw so many buildings literally falling down, that had Trump flags on them, including one that said "Do you miss me yet?" posted across a house where the windows were broken and the front porch was collapsing and holes in the roof. Why on earth would you miss him? Look at you! He clearly didn't do shit for you! I'd pity them if they were disgustingly hateful human beings.

Trump voters live in utter filth. You’ll know this if you’ve ever met one.

u/ALackOfForesight 20h ago

Such a harmful and ridiculous lie. They’re not fucking gollum. My dad voted for Trump and he’s incredibly tidy and successful. It’s not just the dregs of society that wanted this guy in the White House

u/a-snakey 1d ago

My 401k is up nearly 50% since Biden took over, thanks Joe!

u/algy888 1d ago

They are so against DEI hiring for this very reason.

You can’t hire the most qualified minority over the least qualified white guy.

Instead, you want a drunk, adulterer, possible rapist as the head of the department of defence. He has virtually zero qualifications for this or any position, but he is super white.

8

u/Gerokm 1d ago

They're also all super worried about estate taxes and higher taxes on people earning yearly incomes larger than what they'll make in their entire lifetimes. Steinbeck hit the nail on the head when he said people here see themselves not as exploited workers, but as temporarily embarrassed millionaires.

Waiting for that trickle down any day now--what's that? It's happening now! Why is is yellow? Must be gold.

u/CrashBanicootAzz 1d ago

Stock market is up while people are getting laid off. Stores are closing down. America is starting to resemble a third world nation. Stock market is up because of all the money printing. Asset prices are all going up. Including that nasty shack in the picture.

u/Helpful_Midnight2645 1d ago

The only place in America I've seen that resembles a third world country is the state of Louisiana, And I haven't been there in 6 years, so I'm pretty sure it has nothing to do with Biden.

u/randy88moss 1d ago

Believe it or not, there are backwood places like this in ultra red districts in California….Trinity and Shasta County resemble 1950 Alabama in some places

I believe it. Rural America has basically been abandoned.

u/Actual__Wizard 1d ago edited 1d ago

Yeah I think we're done economically speaking. The rich are living in a fantasy world if they think we have money to give them. Which, they're not to be clear, they know because they lie, cheat, and steal to make money. They know it's not really possible to make money legitimately anymore. That's what corporate America is now. Nobody actually wants it, but you have zero better options, so what are you going to do? You can't force people to stop being in business and completely mismanage it and as business people have figured out, if it's all bad options then you have no choice.

Then, the strategy of flip flopping everything has been so effective, the people who live like those people in that photo, they think people like Donald Trump care about them. People like that are "the product" of people like Donald Trump... That's what is "left over..." Nothing. They live on a totally worthless run down piece of property and they think they are rich or something... Meanwhile, real business people are trying to figure out how to get them booted off their own property, so they can build their fully automated farms with effectively zero employees.

They just don't understand the strategy: You get nothing... Nothing... You're not going own a single thing... It's class warfare. They're going to turn legitimately everything into a way for the wealthy elite to make more money, whether you like it or not.

The vast majority of people probably live like this person in the Shack.

Not quite that bad, but we're trying to figure out how we're going to afford painting the house and getting the roof redone. I wish I could just do what Paypal does and have an app called Honey that steals money from hard working people. I'm being serious, I have no idea how that's legal. It's a carbon copy of a scheme that people have gone to prison for, so I'm little bit confused as to how it became legal just because it's Paypal... But that's what business is these days, they just delete your stuff and then take credit for your work. So, instead of you getting paid for your hard work, they get paid for nothing.

It's a great system it really is. /s

u/Ok_Lets_DoThis 1d ago

Their schemes never cease to amaze me. Add to the list: Completely crashing the economy, hurling us into a 1929 depression; buy up as much real estate for 2 cents on the dollar; give the DOLLA a 50% haircut; allow ANY business to claw back ALL 401K and any type of retirement funds; gut Medicare, Social Security, Medicade; VA benefits……….etc.

NOT TO WORRY! R. RayGuns’ TRICKLE DOWN PISS will be here any day, just like we told ya!

The housing bubble has been going on for a while. I'm guessing the bubble will pop within the next 2 years because trump seems to be doing everything he can to screw over the working class.

Where I live it is houses like this that have the Trump signs but also some of the mansions do too. Still boggles the mind how a deranged conman got the votes of the poorest and the richest - us in the middle will always get screwed over.

u/asdf072 17h ago

If you read Nancy Isenberg's "White Trash," it's a whole history of poor white people and their ultimate fear of being the low man on the cultural totem pole. It's a phenomenon that goes all the way back to the pilgrims and Jamestown.
